CHICAGO, Nov. . By a vote of 1,624 to

necessary, to enforce the demands of their
union. A meeting of the executive board
of the union was at once called and rep

The joint board of affiliated locals, rep
resenting all of the employes of the street

on the strength of the rights and duties
created by the treaty of lK4t, but has time
and attain Intervened to preserve the free
dom of trafflo from disturbance in the
course of domestic dissensions. In these
cases we have Intervened sometimes at the
stiftgratlnn of Colombia, sometimes on our
own Impression of the necessities of the
case, but always to the profit of Colombia,
as well ss universal commerce. The posi
tion of the United States was clearly Set
forth by Mr. Seward In these words:
"The United States has taken, and will
take, no Interest In any question of Inter
nal revolution In the state of Panama or
any state of the United States of Colombia,
but will maintain a perfect neutrality In
regard to such domes! Ic controversies. The
United States will, nevertheless, hold Itself
ready to protect the transit trade across
the Isthmus against Invasion of either do
mestic or foreign disturbers of the peace of
the state of Panama."
There has never been anv doubt of th
validity of the treaty of 1848 to guarantee
free and open transit either for American
citizens or for the government or tne
United States. We have used the isthmus
for the transit of troops and f fugitives
from Justice and a protocol was signed at
Bogota on the of February, 1879,
acknowledging this right of transit for
troops and extradited fugitives belonging
to the United States, a right, as Is declared
In ,the protocol, "which in established in
compensation for the guarantee of the sov
ereignty and property of the Isthmus to
whlcU the government Is bound.
Treaty Stands Forever.
It must not be lost sight of that this
treaty is not dependent for Its efficacy
on the personnel of the signers or the
name of the territory It affects. It Is
a covenant, as lawyers say, that runs
with the land. The name of New Granada
has passed away; its territory has been
divided. But ss long as the Isthmus en
dures, the great geographical fact keeps
sllve tho solemn compact which binds the
holders of the territory to grant us free
dom of transit and binds us In return to
safeguard for the Isthmus and the world
the exercise of that inestimable privilege.
It Is therefore clear for discussion that
when, at the repeated solicitation of the
government of Colombia, a treaty was
entered Into between that government and
the United States for carrying Into effect
I he long considered plan of a canal across
the isthmus, to be owned and controlled
by the government of the United States
It was no new proposition that was being
adopted, but rather carrying nut of a
long cherished plan of both countries and
ine assertion or a right "Which nad been
long since ' conceded in principle by the
government of Colombia.
It was the universal conviction that the
time had come for this gigantic project to
be carried out. It was too great for In
dividual or corporate enterprise. It could
only be carried to conclusion by a gov
ernment of great power and vast resources
and the only government to which It
was a possibility was that of the United
States.
Refers te Canal Treaty.
By authorisation of congress the presi
dent entered Into a treaty with
Colombia for th construction of a
canal by way of the Isthmus of
Panama. Wishing to show every con
sideration to the government of Colombia,
the treaty contained provisions of ex
traordinary liberality. A large bonus was
given for the privilege of constructing the
canals, a liberal annual lease was added
and all this was in addition to the num
berless benefits which would accrue to the
Colombian government and people from th
construction In this territory of this co
lossal work. The treaty was promtly rati
fied by the senate of th United States and
rejected unanimously and without consid
eration by that of Colombia. The consid
erations which have been made to this
f;overnment, since the failure to passage
n Bogota, of a renewal of negotiations
have been too vague and too extravagant
to merit the serious consideration of the
United States,' and such as to create the
Impression In the minds of the people of
Panama that there was no reasonable pros
pect of the accomplishment of the object
upon which their hope and desires nad
been set for many years.
This brings us to the sudden and start
ling events which have bo recently at
tracted the attention of this country and
of the world. Although there has been no
lack for many years pust of numerous
causes of discontent and anxiety among the
reople of Panama, It appears that the
allure of the canal treaty convinced them
that there was nothing more to be hoped
for In their connection with the Colombian
government which had never proven en
tirely satisfactory.
Panama Accomplishes Independence.
They went to work with that talent for
prompt and secret organization for which
there Is no parallel among people of north
ern blood; tney prepared th machinery of
revolution in advance and suddenly, in a
single day, without the firing of a shot
with th exception of a few shells that
wer thrown Into th city from te Colom
bian steamer In the harbor of Panama
they accomplished their Independence. A
government consisting of the leading cltl
ens of the state was at once organised
and proclaimed to the world, a part of
the Cwomblan forces Joined the revolution;
the rest returned to Colombia and. so far
as we are able to Judge, the new republic
begins Its career with no organized oppo-
riitlon throughout the entire extend of th
thmus.
The course of th president in this con
jecture waVmarked out In advance by all
our precedents and principles. He gav or
ders that trafflo from one side of the Isth
mus to th other should be kept unimpeded
by either party, and charged our officers
on the isthmus to use their utmost Influ
ence to prevent any attack by on of the
contending factions upon the other which
would be calculated to cause a disturbance
of traffic.
Beaablle Is Recognised.
'when It was reported to him that a gov
ernment, capable of maintaining order, had
been established and was working without
opposition, he did what Is alwavs done un
der such circumstances. Ho directed our
representative at Panama, as soon as lie
was certain that a government capable of
maintaining the pu'uilc peace had been es
tablished by th consent of the people,

POINTS TO YOU
How Coffee Bets Its Grin and I Neve

It Is surprising how many people never

Even In chronlo cases th chances are
a shift from coffee to Postum Food CoJXaa

Sometime this happens with surprising
promptness. A lady of Syracuse, Neb.,,
says; "Last spring a year ago my doctor
told cn I would have to stoodrlrfklng
coffee. I had heart trouble so bad that
th least excitement would cause me to
chok up so I could scarcely get my breath
and I was so nervous I could not bear to
hav th children move around the house,
"Doctor told my husband to get Postum
for me, but before he did so w moved t
th country and I fell back on milk and
water, but even such exertion as climbing
a flight of stairs caused my peart to hurt

"This continued all 'summer until in th
fall w again moved to Syracuse. Thar
I got soma Postum and began to feel so

Bogota to Inform the Colombian govern
ment that we had entered Into relations
with the new provisional government of
Panama, and he took occasion, relying
upon the ties of friendship and the valua
ble services which he have so often ten
dered to the people of Panama and the
government of Colombia, to commend to
the respective governments the peaceful
and equitable settlement of all questions
at Issue between them. He took occasion
at the same time to give notice to the
world that not only our treaty obligations,
but 'the Imperative demands of the In
terests of civilisation required him to put
a stop to the Incessant civil contests and
bickerings which have been for so many
years the curse of Panama.
Having regard only to the present crisis
and the needs of the hour, no plainer duty
was ever Imposed upon a chief of state
than that whlrh rested upon the president
of the United States In the Interest of the
Isthmus the people of Colombia, the peo
ple of the United States and the commerce
of the world, to preserve for the benefit
of all free transit over the Isthmus, and
to do all that lay In his power to bring
permanent peace to its people.

In consequence is hurrying supplies aboard

nounced his sailing yesterday from Ao

department to be due at that port about
November 12, and he is Admiral Coghlan s
senior.
Instructions te Consuls.
The following telegram was sent by th
State department to Mr. Ehrman, th act
ing consul general at Panama:
The neonle of Panama have by an appar
ently unanimous movement dissolved their
political relations witn tne repuono or
Colombia and assumed their Independence.
When you are satisfied that a de facto gov
ernment, republican in form, and without
substantial opposition from its own people,
has been established In the state of
Panama you will enter Into relations with It

rltory ar.a iooh to it tor an aue action io
protect the persons and property of citizens
of the United States, and to keep open the
Isthmian transit. In accordance with the
obligations of existing treaties governing
the relations of the United States to that
territory.
Immediately afterward an Instruction was
sent by telegraph to Mr. Beaupre, th
United States minister ' at Bogota, In the
following terms:
The people of Panama, having by an sn-
farentlv unanimous movement dissolved

Colombian Charge d'uffulrs May Go.'
The Associated Press learns that
Colonel Thomas Herran, the Colom
bian charge d'affairs, is prepared
to leave Washington' on short notice, with
his family, for Colombia. It may be stated
that instructions withdrawing him will
cause no surprise at the Colombian lega
tion, where It Is believed that th State de
partment's recognition of th rep"ublIo of
Panama will cause intense feeling In Co-,
lombla. So far Dr. Herran has had no ad
vices from his government.
President to Instruct dodger.
Under personal instructions, which he will
receive tomorrow from the president, Con
sul General Gudger leave here Sunday for
Colon to assume command of th American
consulate there. These instructions will be
of the most minute character, though, of
course, much will be left to the discretion of
Mr. Gudger, in whom the administration
haa the fullest confidence. On the arrival
of .Mayflower at Colon Mr. Gudger will
make himself known at once to the de facto
government, and the usual formalities in
such cases will bo observed. He will do
business directly with the Republic of Pa
nama, which, in Its provisional form, con
sists of an executive board, but which be
fore his arrival may easily take the form
of a permanent government.
Consul General Gudger was for a long
time In conference with Assistant Secretary
Loomis and afterward talked Interestingly
to an Associated Press reporter of th
Isthmian situation, saying:
I am not In the least surnrlsed to know
that tbe Isthmus has declared its Independ
ence. Five months ago a revolution was a
foregone conclusion, as we all know. Th
Isthmian people have copduoted themselves
In patience and with dignified deliberation;
have aWalted the adjournment of the Co
lombian congress and th destruction of
their last houe for the ratification of th
Hay-Herrnn treaty before taking this an.
parently radical step. Their reason for this
Is the alleged refusal of the Bogota govern
ment to mreci us poucy witn soros regard
to th Isthmian people's good.
Officers Are Proof of Stability.
Striking proof of the stability of th
government is seen In the personnel of the
executive board, which now constitutes
the provisional government. They are all
three men of the strongest character,
leaders In the Isthmian commercial affairs,
and men who command the undivided
respect of the natives as well as the for.
elgn residents of the Isthmus.
n Interesting coincidence - Is the fact
that Fredlco Boyd, one of three consuls,
and the author of the manifesto pub
llshed yesterday, is the Spanish and Nlcar
aguan consul accredited to the govern
ment of Colombia. Of course, It Is not to
be Inferred from this that these govern
ments knew of Mr. Boyd's connection with
the revolution.
The sentiment of the people on th
Isthmus toward the United States is ex
tremely cordial and friendly. They want
Independence, annexation or anything that
will Insure the construction of the Panama
canal. They have the greatest confidence
In the people and the government of the
United States. Th American flag is re
spected and trusted as hs flag of no other
nation.
When Mr. Gudger was asked, "what
about Colombia?" h promptly replied: "It
would ha Improper for m to say. You
must know, however, that It Is the tradi
tional policy of the 'Washington govern
ment to recognise the de facto govern
ment. I am thformed her that agents of
th revolution' are not worried about any
protest th Colombian government may
make."
' Mr. Oudger's relations with th Bogota
authorities hav been exceedingly cordial
and he would say nothing that would re
flect on th Colombian government. Ills
attitude as American consul must be neu
tral as regards Colombia's internal affairs,
affairs. ,
Mr. Gudger went to th Colombian le
gation today and had a conference with
Dr. Herran, th Colombian charge.
Hew Geverameat Get te Week.
COLON. Colombia. Nov. . Th govern
ment of the Republic of Panama last night
appointed Benor Porflro Melendes civil and
military governor of Colou, pending the ap
pointment of new omelals. - Those of th
old government have been Impotent sine
th troops left. Senor Culdros and th
alcalde. Senor Guerrero, are now conetlties.
They have not been arrested.
Governor Melendes has notified th offi
cials that they may remain at their posts
for the present if they swear allegiance to
the new republic He has also notified th
steamship Sflrrrts that. Colombian port on
th Atlantic ari tiloiMd U nU arrivals. This
refers only to their nonacceptance of troops I
from coast porta.
A steam launch was dispatched Inst night
to capture Bocas del Toro In the Interests
of the new republic. No difficulties sre an- t
tlclpated thtre.
The new republic doubtless Is firmly es
tabllshed. There are no Colombian troops '
on th Isthmus and satisfaction Is every- I
where expressed at the new order of things.
The American employes of the railroad
and others have been armed with rifles and
revolvers supplied hy the United States
cruiser Nashville. Together with the lat
tar's men the volunteers presented a bold
front Wednesday and Thursday afternoons
to the Colombians, who wer threatening
the lives of Americana Thanks to the
stand taken by Commander Hubbard of
Gunboat Nashville the situation was saved.
Reasons for Rerolrftlon.
Shortly before tbe flag of the Republic of,
Panama was formally hoisted over the pre
fecture here this morning the new civil
govern', Porflerlo Melendes, delivered on
oration. He said:
In th year 121 the population of the
Isthmus of Panama severed the tie that
bound it to the government of Spain and
spontaneously adhered to the then new
republic of Colombia. Neither the spon
taneousness of this act nor many subse
quent ones of fidelity to Colombia have
had the effect of having the governments
that suoceeded each other at Bogota con
cede to the IsthmuH, except on paper, the
same right that they had granted to the
Inhabitants of other Colombian sections.
Neither were the votes of the Isthmians
ever taken Into account, nor were thlr
Just complaints nd patriotic aspirations
attended to. In virtue whereof, nnd the
ties of union with Colombia being for these
reasons aevrrert, population of Panama,
cn mnsBT-. taking Into account the nohln
conduct of their progenitors on November
Is, JX21, have proclaimed the Republic of
Panama and have appointed a supreme
board of government, which the troops and
public of Panama without political dis

Another dispatch from the consul says:
Fedcrlco Boyd, Jose Arajano and Tomas
Arias, representing the provisional govern
ment, have communicated to the consuls of
the foreign powers that the new state has
been constituted.
The consul adds:
The province of Cauca shows no sign of
revolution, nor has the revolution thus far
spread to other provinces.
The new state assumes all the former
treaty and legal obligations of Colombia,
The last Information is regarded by th
officials here as being most important, a
showing no disposition on the part of the
new republic of Panama to repudiate the
canal or other property rights acquired
from Colombia. '
The feeling In government circles her
continues strongly favorable to allowing
the revolution to take its course. It Is
definitely stated that no steps have been
taken or contemplated toward Interven
tion. A few Irresponsible newspapers criti
cize the United States and show Ignorance
of the French government's position by
asserting that warships will be sent to
Panama "to restrain the American plans."
Those views are not shared by the gov
ernment, or by the more serloup element
of th press and public.
