Danger of HostilitieS 5cith Colombia
.4bating-Reyes for Peace.

Washington, Dec. 31.-State Department ad-
vices OF recent date all go 10 show that the dan
ger Of a hostile clash with Colombia is abating.
ard these, taken in connection with Minister
Beaupre's courteous treatment by the ColoH-
bian officials on his way home tend 10 confirm
the official impression here that there is now no
danger OF failure 10 reach a satisfactory adjust
rueat Of whatever issues may exist between the
United States and Colombia. For one thing, II
appears that tie seaboard States ot Colombia
have come 10 realize that in the event Of hostili-
ties they would be the greatest sufferers by con-
tact with naval force. while the politicians ot
Rogota. two weeks distant from the sea, would
have little at stake.
II the Colombian government follows the ad-
vice Of General Reyes, all idea Of the breaking
out Of hostilities between that country and the
United States may be dissipated- Even though
the reply OF this government TO the note OK
General Reyes may not be OF a nature 10 give
him much comfort. he stated to-day that he
would use al the influence in his power to pre-
vail on his government TO refrain from any hos
tile demonstration toward the United States.
War with the United States he declared, would
result only in disaster 10 Colombia. Whether
CT not he will submit counter propositions TO the
reply OF M Hay General Reyes IS unable 10
say until he has received the document and gone
over il in detail He said to-day. however, that
should his original contentious not be sustained
the probability Is that he VIII continue the ex-
change Of diplomatic notes with the view TO OBJ
tanning as many concessions from the United
States as possible.
Colombia viii not be represented at the New
Year reception. nor will President Roosevelt re-
ceve the good wiEhes Of the Bogota govern
