PANAMA EXCITED.
Disturbances in Chniqui-A Hint of
4pti- merican ACtiOn.

Panama June 9-The coming Presidential
elections have been source of intense political
excitement for some time but up to the present
no serious disturbances have occurred AS far
as is known here, disturbances have occurred
ONLY In some of the towns in the province Of
Chrfqui where it is reported. all OF the mu-
nicipaI mayors who friendly to Sehor
ObaIdia have been dismissed.
1t can be said however, that in Panama little
except politics is discussed. and the bitterness
of the campaign has not been diminished py
articles which are appearing daily in the news
papers of both parties tending to arouse the
public passions. For example, The Star and
Herald a semi-oficial organ, in an editorial
this morning entitled American Intervention
says:
THE supporters of Obaldia do not. nor can
they see the intentions of self-beneft the United
states may have in intervening. The day OF
the eIections-rnay God not will ft,-something
may occur in Panama like the blowing up of the
Maine. which may involve all in the common
confiagraton."
