Panama and Colon during the coming
dry season to guard against yellow

They will include the extension, grad

sewers, extending water mains. Thu

which Panama agrees that Panama
and Colon shall comply in perpetuity
with the sanitary ordinances whethc.
Of preventive or curative character
prescribed by the United States. The
work will be undertaken first at Pana

improvements are to be made there
are closely occupied and would be very
hard to sanitate in case of the intro
duction of plague.

The saloons, too, were closed at 6 O'Clock
to remain closed until o'clock tomorrow
morning There were several incipient
riots in the southeastern part of the city
early in the evening, but the crowds
which congested the streets were driven
to shelter by the rain. There was a small
riot tonight at 18th and York streets
where mob of several hundred persons
took up a position along the elevated
ed a passing car with rocks, coal and
bricks.
The crew and passengers dashed from
the car, and the mob, bent on destroying
the car, made a rush for it, but a score
OF policemen drew their revolvers and
fired several shots into the air. The crack
of the firearms had a quoting effect upon
double-quick time. There were half a
dozen arrests.
The present strike has been the most

trolley companies and the temper of the
people was more violent than i'm the
