in line with the suggestion of the
United States regarding determination
of the Costa Rican frontiers on the
Atlantic side were brought before the
extra session of the Panamanian as
sembly, which began behind closed
doors, Monday.
The previous session authorized the
president to spend 100000 for arms
and munitions and float $500,O0O in
ternal loan for national defense. It
is proposed that new 81 .OOO,OO
loan be guaranteed by the proceeds
of the national lottery. The existence
of the present lottery expires July l
next. The United States is opposing
it's continuance.
It is understood that the government
does not intend to float the entire ST.

ance or non n-acceptance of the sugges-
ton made by Secretary Hughes that

representatives in Washington indicate
that the state department there is
showing increased impatience.
Still Without Arms.
The government is continuing efforts
to procure arms and munitions. Mem
bers of the government deny that it is
the purpose to raise standing army,
but they assert that the country has
been shown the necessity for procuring
reserve supply of defensive materials.
While the administration is attempt
ing to determine its policy with regard
to the White award, General Manuel
Quintero. whose forces captured the
Costa Rican occupation detachments at
Coto, is remaining with several hun
dred Of his best equipped men on Pan
