BOUNDARY TO BE MARKED.
Any Action Panama May Take Will
Not Interfere.

State Department officials appeared
unperturbed today by the report that
Panama would not recognize the
validity Of the commission selected
to delimit the boundary line between
Costa Rica and Panama. Until Off
cial notification Of the Panama gov
ernment's refusal to recognize the
commissioners and to appoint its rep
resentative is received no formal cog
nizance Of the new situation will be
taken.
1t was intimated, however. that
continued Panaman opposition would
not prevent the marking of the line
in accord with the White award.
The provisions of the Porras-An-
derson treaty are for the appointment
Of one commissioner by Panama, one
by Costa Rica and two by the Amer
lean Chief Justice. 1t was suggested
unofficially that the United States
might extend its official support to
action by the commission. with only
by Costa Rica. and. il
necessary, see to it that the line 1t
lays down is respected by Panama.
There has been added to the rec
ord of the Panama-Costa Rica boun-
Diary controversy the official protest
of the Panama government. Luis
Garay, the foreign minister of Pan
anna, who has been conducting the
negotiations before the State Depart
ment, has departed for his capital
upon instructions from his govern
ment and also in accord with intruc-
tions filed with the department, a
sharp communication. reasserting the
justice of the Panaman claims:

protection $2.04 per person.
The per capita share of the $4,-
$4,000 which the District will con-
tribute toward school appropriations
this year is 1888.
1t is not the purpose of the District
officials to advocate a reduction in

is to show that the building of good
streets and roads cannot be pushed
rapidly on the amount of money now
allowed for that work.
