FEAR PERU AND COLOMBIA
WILL WAR OVER BOUNDARY
Occupation of Puerto Cordoba by Pc
ruvian Troops Has Aroused
Intense Feeling.

Genuine apprehension is felt in South
American diplomatic circles here over the
severe strain imposed upon the relations
between Peru and Colombia by the as
sault upon the Peruvian legation in Boz
gotta, the Colombian capital. by a mob
melted by a sermon pronounced in the
cathedral.
For many years there has been a dis
pute between the two countries over the
location of the boundary line along the
Putumayo river. and the recent occupa-
ton by Peruvian troops and customs Of
fcers of the town of Puerto Cordoba,
which the Colombians declare lies within
their territory, has developed intense feel
ing.
AS Ecuador is involved in a boundary
dispute with Peru of precisely the same
nature as is raised in this Colombian
boundary case 1t is thought she would
ally herself with Colombia IL that coun-
try should go to war with Peru, which IL
Is feared may be the case.
In the event of hostilities Ii is believed
here that Peru would have considerable
advantage, as her troops are in q position
to move easily down the Amazon to the
Putumayo and up that river in barges to
the scene of trouble. The Colombians and
Ecuadoreans. on the other hand, would
be under the necessity of bringing their
armies across the Andes mountains in or
der TO occupy the disputed territory.

when I was IN Egypt two winters ago
l was urged by a friend. who sent me a

Pasha. and the visit was to me a very
interesting one, not because of any con-
Versation that I was able TO hold with
Arabi' who seemed to me to be a broken
| man, prematurely aged, but because of
long conversation that 1 had with his
! eldest son. My first visit. in fact, was
to this son: they occupied adjoining daha-
oeeahs on the Nile at Cairo. 1t may be

In which the east forgets that the

His dahabeeah was clearly not shrine
as would be the home of a correspond

nally the dahabeeah containing the son
and the sons wife and children was
reached, and / and my companion were
very courteously received and spoken to
In the best of English by Arab the
younger.
Genial ard Friendly.
Very genial and very friendly did
much about the twenty years of life In
Ceylon and how greatly he and his wife
had regretted leaving that beautiful land
1t was a curious commentary upon
prison that the son who was taken to
Ceylon with his father when quite a
youth should have come to love the
island even more than the beautiful land
of his birth. Finally I was taken to
see Arab, who was resting below deck
in his dahabeeah i'm the company of
three or four friends, all Of them Egyp-
tians. Perhaps they had been talking Of
old times and old aspirations. but l was
struck with the sense of feebleness and
premature old age in Arab None the
less. / was interested in seeing this relic
of stirring events that had occurred in
earlier years and had made history 1t

all. and 1 retain the incident among my
most interesting memories.
