Warming Sent Panama BY State DE
partment Marines Sent as
PrecautiOn Only. ~

/ WASHINGTON, Aug. 23.-The Amer
lean state department IN note LOT,
warded to Panama yesterday stated
emphatically that the United states
would not permit any hostiftles grow
ing out OF the occupation OF the Coto re
gion by Costa Rica.
Adyices received BY the state depart
ment indicate that the despatch OF ma
rines TO Panama is wholly precautlon-
arv measure. No trouble is expected IN
enforcing the award made by Chief jus
tice White in the territorial dispute be-
tween Panama and Costa Rica
According to this information Panama
is prepared to withdraw from the
disputed territory on the Pacific side
and the government will give the eXpla'
nation that it was compelled to do sc
by the superior power OF the United
States government.
The furry in Central America appears
to be a tempest in a teapot. Former
President Loubet of france had made
the award which defined the boundary 1,.n ar
between Costa Rica and Panama De
tween the Pacific and the Cordllleras
On the Atlantic side he had drawn q
line which was not susceptible of com
pletion because Typographical maps
we're not available. 1t was this feature
of the decision which Chief Justic'
White was called upon to decide,
/ Equipped Win llit IopoSA BAA'~"A
lines Chief Justice White drew lin,
between the Cordilleras and the Allan
tic ocean. There never was any ques
tion about the award on the Pacific sd
of the Isthmus, and the correctness o
the decision was acknowledged by ia
mama in the Porras Anderson treaty
| Panama objected to the White aware
on the ground that the chief Justice ha'
exceeded his authority in describing tn
! boundary line This objection never ma
4 been supported by this government. Ia
mama occupied the disputed territory o.
the Pacific side pending the settlemen
of the wild and uninhabited territor
on the Atlantic side. Since there wa
no dispute as to the award on the ia
| cifc side as made by President Loube
| il was clear Panama was occupyln
this portion of the disputed territory I
compel acceptance by Costa Rica OF tn
Panama contention relative to the con
tention of Panama on the ATLANTIC sid.
The disputed territory on the Atlantl
side of the isthmus is wild and pracu'
ally uninhabited The transfer OF jurls
diction accordingly can be matter c
comparativelv little Importance.
The marines despatched by the Unite
| States to the disputed territory, aceor'

talon of eighteen officers and 3sS mel
under command of Major Thomas !

ARREST RED CROSS MAN.
Second Assistant Treasurer Charged
with Embezzlement of $4,000.

WASHINGTON, Aug 23.-C. z Will
son, second assistant treasurer of the
American Red Cross, was arrested yes
terday charged with larceny. An audit
~ his books had showed a shortage of
about $4,000, said Director Livingston
Farrand
The warrant specifically charged the
theft of $780, but Red Cross officials
said this was only one of a number of
charges against him. According to the
police Wilson admitted shortages of
misfortune to gambling on horse races.
Director Farrand said the shortage
concerned only subsidiary accounts used
in conducting operations at headquar-
tiers here and that the general funds of
the Red Cross, which can only be drawn
on by checks signed by two officers
were not involved in any way. The loss
he said, was fully covered by surety
bond.

POSSES CAPTURE TWO SUSPECTS FUGITIVEs SWIM NORTH PLATTE RIVER TO ESCAPE, BUT
 PLANS FAIL. SHERIFF SWIMS RIVER ALLEGED sLAYERs OF CHEYENNE MAN CAUGHT AFTER HARD
 CHASE BY POSSES.
(western Newspaper Union News serice.l

Cheyenne, WyO., June 3.-Pursued to an island in the middle of the North Platte river, with armed posses wait ing on either bank of the stream, Abra- ham SaulsitO and Felipe Blanco, want ed here for the murder of Joe Cordova, May 4, were driven from their hiding place by an undersheriff, who swan captured after a battle, according to word received here.
 The two men were brought back here to face the charge of murder. They are alleged to have shot CordOva to death during an altercatiOn.
 Following their flight from here the pair were traced to Bridgeport, Neb., by a posse under Sheriff Duncan of cheyenne. Another posse, headed by Sheriff George Carroll of Bridgeport, was formed there and the men were trailed to the bank of the North Platte river.
 The two posses approached the men from opposite directions, the Cheyenne party coming up on the south side of the river and the Bridgeport posse on the north.
 Perceiving the trap, the two men plunged into the stream and swan to a wooded island in the center of the river, which is several hundred yards across at that point.
 When the two posses arrived oppo- site the island, one on either side of the river, their quarry was safely hid den in the undergrowth of the island.
 Deputy Sheriff Glenn E. Schultz then volunteered to swim to the island drive the men from their covert. Strip ping off all his clothing and carrying only a six-shooter which he was forced to keep above the surface, he swan across the stream.
 Reaching the bank of the island, he ran into the undergrowth and was lost to the sight of the two parties.
 Almost immediately, however, the two men sought by the officers ap- peared in the open with the deputy some distance behind them.
 Immediately the two posses opened fire on the men and the suspects re turned the fire for several minutes un- til they perceived they were surround ed, when they threw up their hands in token of surrender.
 They were then escorted to the bank of the stream by the deputy and re turned to this city, where they were lodged in the county jail to await hearing in connection with the charge of murder,
