| Roosevelt to interview the officers per-
sonally which he did The officers be-
lieved that a revolution might break
out even before Colombia had time to
ratify or reject the treaty. They said
there was certain to be revolution IL
the treaty was rejected by Colombia.
The message later reviews the Ro-
gota's firing on Panama and the land
ing of marines to protect free and un-
interrupted transit on the isthmus. He
then quotes from a letter written by
Commander Hubbard of the cruiser
Nashville, dated Colon, November 5.
The letter shows that before the Unit
ed States made any attempt to restore
order General Torres practically de-
clared war on American citizens by
saying that unless two Colombian off,
GERS seized by the revolutionists the
night before We're not Immediately re-
turned to the Colombian lines he
would kill every citizen of the United
States on the isthmus. Hubbard then
landed marines. The message says
that Hubbard's prompt action saved
great loss of life and property as well
as afforded proptectjon for our citi-
zens. He says that all insinuatiOns
that the United States had any COM
plicity in the revolution are as deSti~i
tute of founda ton as Of propriety. Nos

Il have not denied nor do l wis1, x =
deny either the validity or the pro-
priety of the general rule that new
states should not be recognized as in
dependent till they have shown abil-
ity to maintain their independence.
But the rule has exceptions and
there were in my opinion clear and
imperative reasons why departure
from the rule was justified and even
required in the present instance.
These reasons were first, our treaty
rights; second. our national interests
and safety: third the interests of COL
lective civilization After reviewing
these reasons, the president says: 1T
was under these circumstances that
the United States instead of using It's
forces to destroy those who sought to
make the engagements of the treaty
a reality. recognized them as proper
cuStOdianS of sovereignty In closing
he says: The main question before
this government is not that of recOgni-
ton of Panama as an independent
state as that is already an accom-
plished fact, but the main question is
whether or not we shall build the 18TH

The correspondence includes the
notes exchanged with General Reyes in
which Secretary Hay says that Amer
lea wants to put an end to the long
series of civil wars in Panama and
would regard any invasion by Colom-
bia with the gravest concern.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE
ON ISTHMIAN CANAL
He Declares That His Administration in No Nay nsti
gated or Encouraged the Panama Revolution, But
viii Never Allow Colombia to Subjuqate
the New Republic.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 4.-The presi-
dents Panama message delivered to
congress today reviewing his canal
action required % printed pages, en-
bodying reports, kilograms and let
ters. Almost ali these have been pub
lished from time to time. 1t opens by
reviewing the treaties covering the
southern countries. Referring to Co
lombia it says that at the time nego-
tiations were on with Colombia the
administration was criticised for be-
ing too liberal. Colombia's objection
was based on the ground of relin-
gushing sovereignty over the canal
strip was an afterthought. No nation
could construct and guarantee the
neutrality of the canal with a less de-
gree of control than that stipulated in
the treaty. The refusal to grant such
a degree of control was necessarily a
refusal to make any practicable treaty
raised the question whether or not Co
lOmbia was entitled to bar transit
across the isthmus. The people of
Panama Wanted America to build the
canal. Furthermore Colombia, after
having rejected the treaty despite our
warnings and protests has since shown
the utmost eagerness to accept the
same treaty if only the status quo
could be restored. Letters from high
Colombian officials offered to carry
the treaty through if America would
land troops and compel recognition of
Colombian sovereignty. The president
says:
Il won't for one mon ent discuss the
possibility OF committing an act of
such baseness as to abandon the new
republic of Panama"
Regarding the Nicaragua route the
question of a reasonable time after
the rejection of the treaty by Colombia
did not enter as within three days af-
ter the Colombian congress adjourned
in October the Panam ma revolution
broke out. Panama then actually be-
came an Independent state and control
Of the canal strip then became OBJ
tainable. Colombia had been treated
with all fairness. Secretary Hay has
repeatedly warned her of the feeling,
on the isthmus, yet Colombia took no
heed.
That Panama contemplated a revo-
luton was matter of common no.
tOriety even in the month of August.
The president here quotes numerous
press disDa tches showing the condition
of isthmian feeling. He also quotes
the report made by General Young,
who went to great pains to learn the
Panama situation. showing enormous
quantities of arms We're in possession
of the reVolutionists: that on the entire
iSthmus a great OrganiZat ton had been
effected and that revolution would
undoubtedly follow any refusal of Co
lOnlbia to ratify the canal treaty. The
reports were made to General Young
by Captain Humphrey and Lieutenant
Murphy. who visited Panama in Sep
tember Young advised President
