PANAMA CITY, May 14.-The recent
riots between United States soldiers Of
the Panama Canal forces and the Pan
anna police in both Panama and Colon
in which several on both sides have
been killed, have made it necessary
for Brigadier General Clarence r.
Edwards, U. S. A., commanding the
Panama Canal Troops, to establish
large permanent provost guards in
both cities. In Panama the guard Is
composed of Company E., Tenth In
fantry, Capt. F. w. Coleman, while at
Colon the various Coast Artillery Com
pany stationed at Toro Point are as
signed to that duty in turn.
An arrangement has been made with
the Panama Government whereby the
soldier-guards are furnished with the

addition they wear their service re-
volvers. 1t is their duty to patrol all
places which the soldiers are likely to
frequent, especially the TendeIloin dis
trict. Soldiers are no longer arrested
by the native police All such cases
are handled by the soldier guard.
At Panama the patrol company has
its own camp on the side Of Ancon
Hill only short distance from the
main part Of Panama City. A guard
house is maintained where refractory
soldiers are confined. 1t is planned to
build permanent barracks for this
company the construction to begin at
