COSTA RIGA HAS
MUCH DISPUTED
COT0 DISTRICT
Panama Finally Peacefully
Gives Up Territory to
Her Rival.
By InternatleaaI N,r. seryiee.


The end Of the long dispute between
Panama and Costa Rica over the Coto
district. which at one time caused open
warfare. between the. two countries
and led to the dispatch Of sharp notes
and a battalion Of marines from the
United States. was signalized today.
The State Department was officially
informed that Costa Rica had accom-
plished peaceful possession of the dis
trict and that there was no trouble.
American marines were not present
when the occupation was made, &C.
cording to the State Departments ad-
vices. -. .F ..
The Panama. Costa Rica dispute was
the subject of the first note dispatched
by Secretary Of State Hughes to q
foreign government soon after March
4. He practically ordered the two re-
publics to cease fighting. and the re-
quest was complied with.
The ownership OF the Coto district
has been bone Of contention between
the two countries for years. Originally
IL belonged to Costa Rica, according
to awards decisions made by President
-Loubet Of France, to whom the mat
ter was put up for adjudication some
years ago, and by the late Chief JUS
tice White of the United States Su.
preme Court in decision In 1914.
Panama had occupied the territory,
and despite the decisions against her
refused 70 relinquish It.
Costa Rica 10 now restored In the
territory she formerly owned And for
which she has been contending for
years.

Charge in Injunction Suit Police
Seek to Put Them Out
=. OF Business.

Charging the District Commission.
ers and the police authorities are de.
termined to drive them out Of bust
ness, twelve public hackers today fled
suit in the Distsict Supreme Court
against the Commissioners and Major
Harry L. sGessford. superintendent of
police. to enjoin them from enforcing
tho. new traffic regulations concern
ing the stopping, Of hackers on the
street except when loading or dis
charging passengers. & =.
Justice Hoehling cited the defen.
dants to show cause Monday why an
Injunction should not issue against
them. The plaintiffs are Herbert G.
Cave, William e. Nelson, James M.
Holloway. Abe Livingston, Harvey l..
Patton John Bissett, Norval Metcalf.
Orville Cott. William +. Clark, Adam
Luber, John McDermott and Zeph M.
Cave. In their complaint they call
particular attention to section IL OF
article OF the police regulations,
which becomes effective September
of a public vehicle for hire shall not
stop or loiter upon a street except al
public hack stand or while actually
taking on or discharging a passenger -
The hackers assert that. regulation
Is unreasonable, unconstitutional and
discriminatory" and will drive them
out of business IL enforced and deprive
the public of "a useful and lawful
service" Attorney Needham c. Tur,
mage, their counsel. declares 9S2 hack
ers have paid license fees and only
thirty-five hack stands. which can ac
commodate only 1876 vehicles, have
been provided by the District authori
ties. It Is asserted the remaining 7s7
hackers, although licensed, would be
unable to carry on their business. II
is also charged the regulation dis
eliminates in favor Of taxicabs, which
are permitted to park in front OF
hotels and are engaged In business
similar to the public hackers.
The Districe Commissioners are
charged with "iliegal peryersion OF
their discretion and that they have
acted arbitrarily and with the pur,
pose of destroying the public hacking
industry" in the designation OF public
hack stands. The authorized places
the court Ia informed, are located In
such parts Of the city II Is almost i'm
possible for those engaged to obtain
their accustomed fares or to be found
by persons seeking their services.
One OF the stands Ia unlawfully
placed, II 10 asserted, on the west side
OF the Postoffice building, since an
act of Congress prohibits the stopping
or lettering of public vehicle around
public buildings. That stand. Il is
stated, In behind two large Alexandra
busses, which face on Pennsylvania
avenue and hide from view any hacker
occupying the stand.
