character impersonated by Mr.. Hitchcock
Is Abijah Booze, the American consular
representative in that semi-Spanish state.
1t is one which affords him rare opportu-

The chorus, always feature of any pro-
duction which Mr.. Savage may make, has
in this particular instance attracted more
than customary attention. The Senorita
Tavara is a Spanish dancer especially en-
gagged for this production, and her work
has been highly commended.
The indications are for more than sat

may be expected to score a new and more
distinct triumph than he has ever before
enjoyed in Washington. Matinees will be
given Thursday and Saturday in pursuance
of the custom at the Columbia Theater.

UNITED STATES AND COLOMBIA
Former No Party to Proceedings
Growing Out of Secession.

Washington, Jan. 13.-It can be
stated on good authority that the ad-
ministration does not contemplate pay
ing one dollar out of the United States
treasury to Colombia on account of the
secession of Panama Nor will it go
before the Hague tribunal as party
TO any proceedings growing out of
that secession. 1t is stated that to
do either of these things would be to
commit the administration to an ad-
mission that it had been guilty of
wronging Colombia.
On the other hand it is again an
nounced that the United States gov
ernment stands ready to do anything
In its power to bring about an AMIGA
bic settlement between Colombia and
Panama. 1t may be said that Pana.
ma will consent to go before the Hague
tribunal with Colombia and allow that
tribunal to decide whether or not
Panama shall make any concessions to
Colombia on account of the severance
OF political ties. 1t is certain that
the United States government will
look with favor upon the assumption
by Panama of some small liability to
make good the loss which Colombia has
suffered. The government is willing
even to go to the extent of guarantee
ing the performance by Panama of
any duty and obligation she may as.
sumo toward Colombia and exchanges
on this basis between interested par
ties are now in progress.
