OSPINA GIVES UP

Colombian Minister Notifies

INCIDENT NOW CLOSED
Secretary Knox Not to Visit Re-
public in ANY Event, It Is
Stated on Authority.

Following his recall for assuming the
personal responsibility OF informing the
State Department that the moment may
prove "inopportune' for Secretary Knox
TO visit Colombia, because the Panama
secession claim had not been arbitrated,
Gen. Pedro Ospina, the Colombian Minis
ter, surrendered his office yesterday, and
turned the legation oyer TO Robert o..
McDouaIl, the secretary, as charge
d'affaIres. Senior Ospina notified Acting
Secretary Of State Wilson of this action
in a brief note sent by messenger. This
was the first communication to pass be-
tween the Colombian legation and the
State Department since Senor ospina
wrote his now famous note to Mr.. Will
son. February Is.
Mr.. Du Bois, the American Minister
at Colombia, reported to the depart
ment that he had likewise been in
formed by the Colombian secretary Of
state that Senior ospina would end his
ofhcfaI duties in washington yester-
day. Notwithstanding that Senior
ospina is now out and the incident, SO
far as the note is concerned, is OFF,

Originally, it was said that Secretary
Knox would POSSIBLY" include Colom-
bia and Mexico in the itinerary Of his
tour of the Central American and
West Indian republics.
Extended No Invitation.
Now. owing to the unpleasant pub
licity given the Ospina note, the visit
is a far less possibility. It was made
plain yesterday that Colombia has not
extended a special invitation to Sec
retary Knox to visit that country, the
message merely being in line of those
from Mexico and other countries, that
If he should make the visit he would
be given a cordial welcome.
Minister Du Bois, in his message, stat
cd that the Colombian press and public
opinion appears to unanimously support
the position of the government in re-
pudiating the unauthorized action of its
Minister by his dismissal. and that the
feeling toward the United States is i'm
proving. The last note of the Colom-
bian Minister of November g, demanding
arbitration of the Panama claims, still
remains unanswered, however, and
doubtless there will be no further de-
velopments in this matter until new

ASPHALT PLANT
BILLS ARE BURIED
Musty Pigeon Holes Of House and
Senate District Committee Con-
tain Important Ksasures.
NAY SEE LIGHT OF DAY


wide interest has been aroused in
Washington in the proposed District
asphalt plant, as q consequences Of The
Warrington Herald's exposure last Mon
day OF the fact that the enormous sum
OF sssa2sz12 has been paid to contractors
doing the work IN the last two years ana
half.
on top Of the publication for the hrst
time OF these enormous figures. there
comes the news that there are lying IN
dust covered pigeon holes IN the House
and Senate. special bills providing for
the installation OF the proposed District
asphalt plant. with no prospect OF their
ever being acted upon unless Il is made
necessary for them IN some way 70 be
hauled out into the light OF day.
Would Make Big saving.
These bills arc Senate biz nos, intro
dneeds on April q 1s1l. and H. r. ssis.
introduced on May 4 1871 They give
the Commissioners power to purchase
and Install a District asphalt plant at a
cost Of $4,000. The failure to act on
these bills. and the throwing out OF the
Item OF $4,000 for this purpose. offers
sharp contrast with the fact that the
contractors profits on the resurfacing Of
asphalt streets alone during the coming
fiscal year win net them q profit OF about
$3.50. or, in other words a profit OF
half the cost Of the proposed plant
Now that the President has signed the
District appropriation bill, which con-
tains an item appropriatinE 1900 for
the appointment OF commission to In
vestigate the desirablIity and cost rof
the proposed plant, the question IL being
asked: why was not some action taken
a year or more ago on the special bills
for the plant which have been before
Congress7" The further question: why
was II necessary to appropriate 5000
for commissioner to do the work that
could have been done by the District
CmmitteeT' is also being asked.
Daniel =. McComb, former superin-
tendent Of streets and sewers. who has
been given charge Of the Investigation,
viii begin his work tomorrow morning
Mr.. McComb Is expected to bring 10
light an important fact 70 which apparent
~ no consideration has been given by the
opponents Of the District plant. This Is
that no expense need be gone TO for the
purchase Of a site for the plant. as the
government already owns q suitable one.
May Resurreet BiIIs.
This site Is the public space lying south
OF Water Street and east Of Fourteenth
Street Southwest II was upon this space
that the Commissioners Intended to erect
the plant. II any action had ever been OBJ
tained upon the bills introduced to pro-
vide for the plant.
As soon as Congress gets to work again |
after the political smoke u q little out OF |
the way, an EFFORT Is to be made. perhaps |
with the Appropriations COMMITTEES direct, |
TO see n Senate bin 17O5 ana H R. SIS can |

Commissioners better than to have the
