NEW MINISTER COMING
Head of Legation to Colombia
Soon Due Here for
Instructions.

Thaddeus Austin Thomson of Texas,
who succeeds James T. Du Bots of Penn
sylvania as United States minister to Co
receive special instructions from the Sec
rotary of State prior to his early depar-
ture for Bogota. Mr.. Thomson was con-
firmed by the Senate a few days ago and
he will receive his commission as soon as
he subscribes to the oath of office, which
he will do next week.
Probably the most important matter to
be intrrsted to the new minister is the
re-esta blIshmen. of cordial relations be-
tween the United States and Colombia
which have been more or less strained
since the creation of the republic of Pan
anna. His predecessor, Mr.. Du Bois made
considerable progress in that direction
and left the negotiations in as favorable
state as was possible under his instruc-
tons. The new minister is said to be
well equipped for the delicate diplomatic
work ahead of him. but il is recognized
that much will dpepI on the character Of
MS instructions, in view of the allege !.
purpose OF the Colombian government %
insist on the submission of it's claim
against the United States to The Hague
court or some other tribunal of arbitra-
ton.
Mr.. Thomson is resident of Austin,
where he has large business interests. and
is said to be man of wealth. He has
been an active worker in the ranks Of the
democratic party for many years and
was delegate to the Baltimore ma
tional convention. He is personal friend
of Postmaster General Burleson who
warmly advocated his selection for the
