Make Trouble for United States
Steamship Leonidas Which
is Surveying in Panama.

Correspondence of Associated Press.) !.
2 PANAMA, April 15.-For several
months the, United States steamship
Leonidas. which has been engaged in
surveying the Atlantic coast Of Pan
anna, has had numerous difficulties
with the San Bias Indians. Serious
clashes have been avoided only by the
tact and patience Of the officers Of the
ship. .y.,,i &
One annoyance the officers have had
to contend with has been the removal
Of cloth markers that the surveyors
placed along the shore. The Indians
found the bright calico too great q
temptation to resist. After numerous
circumstances, the officers threatened
that for each marker stolen certain
number Of cocoanut trees would be
felled in reprisal. This had the de-
sired result. for after few trees had
been chopped the Indians realized that
the price was too high to pay for q
few, cents worth Of bright coiored
cloth.

r. PANAMA, April 15.-In order TO re-
lievo tho great congestion OF freight
tho Panama Railroad Company has
placed an embargo on goods destined
for all ports on tho west coast OF
South America south OF Callao. Peru,
The closing OF the Panama canal last
September caused a yast quantity, OF
freight to DO routed for transiship-
nent across the lsthmus with tho re-
suit that the shipping companies on
the west coast have been unable to
handle the freight offered. W..
Because OF the vast amount OF this
business the shipping mpanies have
taken to carrying only the higher paid
freights, leaving tho low class OF COM
modities TO accumulate on the lsthmus
and to be stored at tho expense Of the
Panama Railroad Company on It's cars
and the wharves at Cristobal and Bal
boa. This need for storage room has
absorbed many Of the railroad COM
