PANAMA POLICE TO BLAME
Fired on u. S. Troops on lnsutti-
Gent Provocation, Says Report.
[From The Trlbune Bureau J

Washington, July L-Panama police are
blamed in preliminary report made to the
War Department by Colonel Green, COM
manding the 10th Infantry and president
Of the board Of inquiry, which has been
conducting an investigation Of the recent
shooting ARRAY. in which one civilian was
killed and ten soldiers and marines wound
Cd by the Panaman officers.
Colonel Green advised that the inquiry
had not been completed. but that It had
zone far enough TO warrant the assumption
that the police were at fault In shooting
Unfortunately at the Americans, fur
Their report will be made when the investi-
cation is finished.
The general account Of the brawl as con-
tanned in the partial report IS TO the effect
that the American soldiers went to the red
light district Of Panama City and became
boisterous and disorderly, but committed
no acts to warrant the police to open fire.
1t is assumed that the police were afraid
Of the soldiers and hoped TO frighten them
by firing their revolvers. Colonel Green is
of the opinion that the officers acted hastily
and without sufficient provocation.
There was an anti-American feeling
against America about that time owing to
the part the American officials had taken
In the election, and several minor encoun-
tiers between the soldiers and Panamans
had ensued as a consequence of the ami
mostly.
The outcome Of the investigation. II is
expected, will be a demand for the pun
ishment of the police who participated In
the affray and redress to the injured Amer
leans.

LONDON SEES NO QUARREL
Times" Confident Friendly Set
Element Will Be Reached.
[By cable TO The Tribune.

London, July 12.-Considerable inter
est is taken here in the news from
Washington that negotiations are pass
ing between the British and American
governments regarding the Panama
Canal bill. The Times" says:
I'VE do not believe that anything III
the discussion on either side cannot De
settled by friendly conference. The
British government is we'll advised to
ask consideration Of its views at once
Not Great Britain alone, but the whole
empire is concerned. Canada is con-
cerned in a special degree.
The amicable settlement in recent
times Of all outstanding questions be-
tween the empire and the republic Is
convincing sign that this new problem
will be solved in the same way. If d.
plomacy should find it too complex. we
can always take il. like the ancient con-
troversy over the Atlantic fisheries, TO
the arbitration tribunal at The Hague.
Failing other methods such solution
would be a fitting testimony to the sin
cerity of the celebrations Of a hundred
years Of peace"

CH|NA'S NEED DESPERATE
A Rupture of Negotiations in

ANOTHER REVOLT LIKELY
Talk of Independent American
Loan to Republic Not Con.
sidered Seriously.
IRr Cable 70 The Tribune

London, July 12.-Financlers concerned
in the proposed S3OOO0O,000 loan TO
China are far from thinking the propo-
sition definitely settled by the state
ments of the Chinese government that
the conditions demanded by the powers
cannot be accepted.
"One of the leading features Of Chinese
diplomacy" It is remarked to-day, rs
the breaking off of negotiations. In the
case OF the discussion with China negoti-
ations were broken off with the utmost
finslity some fifteen times in order that
an agreement might be reached"
At the same time the serious situation
Of China with reference 10 a probable re-
newal Of the rebellion is recognized. II
is considered quite on the cards that
there will be another outbreak The
question is whether there shall be war
fare among the groups. none Of whom
has any money, or rebellion against the
central government, with money 10 hire
and arm troops 10 put down disorders.
The central government, such as il g.
recognizes the condition, and II IS eX-
pected that this recognition will lead 70
renewal Of negotiations Making the
loan would sico be the thing most likely
70 prevent te.ewal OF the rebellion az.
strange as II ma a, seem, II Is the external
debt that IS the cAief binding force in
China to-day. The customs are guar
ante4s for China's present foreign oan,
and her maritime customs service is IN
the hands Of foreigners in all the prov
inces. They are the one feature OF
Chinese affairs in which concerted action
obtains in all sections Of the country.
The new foreign loan under the condi-
lions demanded oy the powers will be
only an added binding force 10 hold the
country together ami prevent rebellions.
Talk Of independent British or Amer
lean offers OF a loan is not considered
seriously China. It is said. is always
full OF financial Adventures who are
only awaiting an opportunity TO offer
and promise anything. II their offers
OF a loan are accepted they will come
to Europe and try 70 raise the money,
and on their failure TO find the money
they disappear from the scheme Of Chi

Great Britain's Only Way.

While the British note caused some
comment on the unusual incident of a
foreign nation interfering with legisla-
ton in a formative stage, it was pointed
out that this was the only course by
which Great Britain could oppose the
measure. As soon as the bill becomes a
law. under Supreme Court decisions II
supersedes all treaties bearing on the
same subject matter, and would thus
leave Great Britain ne ground for obJec-
ton after it had been written on the
statute books.
The State Department probably VIII
not undertake to reply to the British ar
gument in it's own behalf, but will re-
gard itself as subject to the action OF
Congress on the bill and will allow Con-
gress to dictate any reply to the protest.
Should the bill become law over the
protest Of Great Britain it is hardly eX-
peCted that the matter will end there'
as British, and particularly Canadian,
interests undoubtedly would force fur
Their diplomatic action by London, ana
when these means were exhausted the
Hague tribunal would be the court or
last resort.
