Sir. Permit me to correct the report originating
in Panama and published in your edition Of to-
dav stating that there imminent risk OF a
revolution in Colombia. for which reason it was
also asserted that President Reyes was retiring
temporarily from the Presidency.
7 beg to assure you that the above report is alb
solutelv false There is perfect peace and general
r~,nteutrnent in Colombia. The reason for the de-
parture Of President Reyes from Bogota is con-
tanned in his cable of yesterday to the foreign
legations and consuIs. and which reads follows:
Taking advantage of the perfect tranquility the
country is now enjoying, 1 propose to visit the
deoartnlents OF the Atlantic Coast In order 10 de-
v4lop national industries in those regions. During
my absence General Eucdes de Angulo, Minister
Of Finance, will exercise the functions OF Presi-
dent and there will be change whatever in the
ministry. & NJ SANIA, Coioihoiah Cohsui.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
THE 10 SUN CASE.
Bearing of Decision on Enforcement
of ErcIusiOn act.
To the Editor of The Tribune.

To the Editor OF Ine IriDune
Sir The Lo Sun (chinese editor case has been
dropped, on cabed instructions from washington
Chinese editor is how considered one OF the ex-
empt class and come into the United States
The Chinese OF Honolulu very much pleased at
this decision.
The ruling of the department at Washington un-
der which tho discontinuance of the comes. is
complete reversal of the former rulings. and Will
have farreachn~ influence. that will make
the I1o Sun case a famous among those respon-
sible for the enforcement of the exclusion act Il
is legal somersault. of which Lo Sun gets the
benefit. and which throws the burden of proof upon
the authorities to show that any Chinese whom
they would deport laborers and relieves the
ones under danger of deportation from having to
prove that they belong to the very limited ex-
empted class. 1t also establishes clearly the
status of editor of the favored ones under
the provisions of the law.
This ruling of the department. is coincidental with
the arrivaI of TIE Chinese Minister WI Ting
rang, at Washington, and comes, beyond doubt, as
result of the presentation of the Lo Sun case
to him at the tine he passed through Honolulu a
few weeks ago. 1t shows also. that the new
minister has pull at Washington not possessed by
his predecessor.
In the mean while pending the settlement of his
case Lo Sun has been going ahead with his school
teaching ana editing, since leaving the Mills school
having started Chinese school of his in the
rooms OF the Nun Chang Use Society. in River
street where ne has a dozen pupils. instructing
them in their native literature. This work was
commended by Minister Wu. who expressed the
hope that while the young Chinese Of Hawaii
would attend the public schools and educate them
selves in English, they would neglect the edu-
eating OF themselves the same time in Chinese
Ihe Minister went to the length of suggesting
the possibility Of the Chinese government assisting
the brightest among the Chinese pupils in the pub
hc schools to continue their Chinese education that
eventually these youths might return to China as

Australia has long waited for a chance to show
her friendliness to Americans and admiration for
their great nation Are not both white races
and are we not both bordering the Pacific? We
have much in common; we have everything in COM

be the means of bringing much closer together
in the future-that the great American-Australian

many years will now be brought into actual life

that 1t would lead TO great Interchange of peo-

numbers make you more like Australians but if
could draw of your surplus numbers to
ourselves and make ourselves little Ameri-

Australia.
In Australia now, nine out Of every ten peopIe

ROUT OF THE KURDS
THE RUSSIAN INVASION.
Three Villages Raced - Pers'ans
PreDaring Expedition.

Tihis April 1.-THE Russian troops which
recently invaded Persian territory in the vicln-
ity of Lenkoran for the purpose Of Furnishing
Kurdish raiders of the Russian garrison at the
frontier post. Belesuvar. on April Is. acted with
promptitude calculated to overawe the tribes
near Belesuvar
The Russians were greatly outnumbered. but
they pressed the action with great vigor and
routed the Persians infIcting a loss of thirty
four men killed and fifty wounded The re-
mainder of the tribesnen broke and fled
The Russians lost one officer and seven SOL
diers wounded
The cannonade set fire to the village OF Belle
suvar, the destruction OF which was completed
by the Cossacks after a ruthless house to house
search for the Russian arms stolen in the raid
of April 13.
Pressing their advantage. the Russians bom-
barded the neighboring villages OF Kodzhahekiu
and Zariah and razed both. The non-cornbat-
ants suffered heavy losses.
The theatre of war is in the mountain range
of Kara Dagh. which wedges into the Russian
boundary and is the traditional kingdom Of
robber tribes who boast thousands of fighters
armed with modern implements Of war and
organized with a semblance Of military disci-
pine The robbers have cut the telegraph line
in order to hamper the mobilization Of an ex
pedition which Persia is assembling against
them at Tabriz-
The Russian expeditionary force now on Per
sian soil aggregates four hundred COssaCks,
squad Of sharpshooters and battery of machine
guns It was intended to send much larger
force there, but phenomenal food Of the Aras

garrison Of Belesuvar. Order is expected speed
ily TO be restored in the district The Russian
expedition was sent across the border into Per
sia against the protest OF the Persian govern
ment which wished to undertake alone the task
of running down the marauders. but the weak
ness of the Shah's administration and the
danger TO Russian interests made it necessary
for Russia TO intervene actively. No further
news has been received here of the situation at
BeIesuvar.
