AMENDMENT TO CONSTITUTION TALKED Ksrltement Cansed by Report That Panama Delegratloa la Congress Has Withdrawn aad Started for Home. BOGOTA, Tuesday, Sept 1. (Delayed in Transmission.) The senate has appointed a commission to prepare a bill authorising the government to negotiate a canal treaty without violating the constitution, but the government has not presented to congress a message, which Is necessary, asking for reforms In the, constitution to meet the wishes of the United Spates regarding tribunals, the sovereign control of the canal strip and the 100-year lease. The general feeling Is favorable to a new treaty. Senor Maoaro, the actual president of the senate, expressed his ad miration for ths noble and sincere policy pursued by the United States and hopes that the canal wlii be opened by them. He says he regrets that he was obliged to oppose the Hay-Herran treaty as being a violation of the laws and tha constitu tion, but he will work strongly for a canal treaty satisfactory to both countries. Senor Obaldia, who has decided to support the canal treaty, has been appointed governor of Panama. He will leave for his post to morrow. The government Insists on congress re considering tbe matter of the Panama canal treaty. General S&rrla has been ap pointed military commander of the Isth mus of Panama. According to a Panama dispatch, August 17, General Velasco, a veteran and a dis tinguished officer, has been appointed mil itary commander of Panama. This ap pointment was evidently subsequently quashed. , . Congress has only enacted Ave laws, and It is reported that the sessions -will soon be closed. It Is probable that the presi dential candidates will he General Rafael Reyes, the vice president, and Jose Manuel Marroquln, the acting president. The European legation has been offered to General Fernandes, the former minister of war. Intense excitement has been produced here by a cablegram reporting the prob ability of the United States dealing directly with Panama In the canal matter. Senor Abaldla, who has been appointed governor of Panama, loft today for his post He will take with him a canal plan which it Is said will satisfy all. Representative Fabrega also left for Panama. Herrnn . Is Worried. WASHINGTON, Sept. 1-AnxlouS over the reports which have reached Washing ton that the delegates from the depart ment of Panama have withdrawn from the sessions of the Colombian congress at Bogota, Dr. Thomas Herran, the acting minister of Colombia here, today tele graphed to the governor of Panama for Information on the aubjeot Dr. Herran discredits the report, as the advices from his government have given no Intimation of such action. The senators from Panama with one exception, and he was,bitterly op posed to the treaty, and the six members of the house pf representatives, have as siduously worked for the ratlflcatlon of the treaty. Their detention at this time, Dr. Herran realises, would be a serious blow to the prospects for ratlflcatlon. The one Panama senator who has opposed the treaty has never lived In Panama, although elected to the higher body from that de partment The defection of tha Panama delegates,' R Is suggested here; might te In the nature of a protest over the atti tude of the opposition to the treaty with the 'possibility' of. secession from the na tional governmont Dr. Herran still clings to the hope that a way will be found whereby the present treaty will be ratified. He lays much stress on the" possibility that the senate may agree to a measure to be subsequently pased by the houe, where there Is said to be a majority for; tho treaty, giving President Marroquln authority to negotiate directly an instrument along the lines of the present treaty. President Marroquln Is known to be heirtlly In favor of the treaty as It now Is drawn, and if he were duly authorised to do so, the confident belief of Dr. Herran Is that the treaty would be ratified. The Interruption to cable communication with Bogota has been a aouros of irrita tion alike to the State department and to the Colombian legation officials. It has developed that Minister Beaupre at Bogota failed to receive dispatches sent to him by the State department between July 21 and August 16. At this time, when the United States government Is anxious to communicate frequently with Mr. Beaupre, this Interruption la annoying; and Dr. Her ran has asked the proper officials In Co lombia to Investigate the cause therefore Paaasaa Delearates Cesnplala. PANAMA. Colombia, Septf t. General Fernandes, who was spoken of some time ago as a possible presidential candidate, has been offered a European legation. It Is believed that the government is anxious to send him out of the country and thui keep him Out of the presidential contest Advices received here from Bogota say that a stormy session was recently held In the house of repreaeatatlvee when the scan dalous proceedings arising out of the er ratic conduct of General Cobos, July IS, came up for discussion. The representa tives for the Department of Panama com plained bitterly that the Isthmus wss be ing exploited as a colony and that all the high officials were appointed from other departments, Ricardo Arango being the only governor appointed 'from the Isthmus since USS. It Is believed here that it was the fear of a secession movement which led to the appointment of Benor Abaldia as governor of Panama, with. It Is understood, au thority to negotiate on the canal question. General Sarria, who has been appointed military governor of Panama, Is sn lith mlan at heart, having lived twenty years In Panama. Both Governor Obaldia and General Bania are ardent partisans of ths canal and friends of the United States.

Ryley Dolores Miss Greta Risley Estelle, typewriter for Gllfain Miss Cora Harris Valleda, maid to Lady Ilolyrood Miss Lillian Spencer Angela Oilfaln Miss Harriet Merrltt Lady Holyrood Miss lsadore Rush We are getting pretty well acquainted with "Florodora" out this way, but It Isn't a case of familiarity breeding contempt, for we like the piece better each year. Thla year there is good reason for liking It bet ter, for It Is better dressed, better staged, better sung and better acted than we have ever seen it. Miss Rush Is by long odds the queen of all the Lady Holyroods who havo had the part. She Is doing her part even better than she did last Season, when she made her characterisation of the airy husband-hunter popular In spite of her In ability to sing. Miss Risley Is a Dolores compared to whom It were a sin to men tion Corlnne In the aame week. She has the piquancy and charm of youth, whereas Corlnne was blase, If not passe; she can sing, she can dance and she can move with grace across the stage, and no "black-eyed senorita" need ever feel offended If anyone tells her she looks like Greta Risley. Miss Merrltt la a spirited. Angela, wjth a good voice and the ability to use It Robert E. Graham, the original Ollfaln, Is with the company again this season, ahd is snaking the part more and more his own. And' he resembles a United States senator In- his appearance as well as In his-grammatical lapses. Mr. Ryley'a. Tweedlepunch Is an exquisite bit of comedy work. Mr. Phillips Is fairly good as Lord Abercoed, but he gives his song to Dolores a dolorous pltoh that is a trifle painful. He might put a lit tle life In It and still preserve the tempo. And the sextet, which Is the backbone of "Florodora's" popularity, it has improved with age and Is sung better and dressed bet ter this year than ever. The chorus Is strong; not only Is It good to look at, but It Is good to listen to, for the members, toti mate and female can sing. Th audience which listened to the eatchjr" music a fid watched the unfolding of the "pretty pic tures of "Florodora" last night was not as large as could have been accommodated at the Boyd, but It was discriminating, and gave the bright spots its unstinted com mendation. The engagement continues un til sfter Wednesday nlsht, with a special Labor day matinee today. "The Millionaire Trams" at the Krnaj. Two performances of Elmer Walters' thriller, "The Millionaire Tramp," drew two packed houses at the Krug yesterday. The piece Is of the genuine melodramatic! type, with a little variation In the forma tion of the hero and the villain. In neither Is the departure sufficiently startling to shake the faith of the followers of this sort of dramatlo entertainment. What ever may be lacking in the way of heroism or deep,' dark villainy, is more than com pensated for In the element of comedy with which the place abounds. And that this feature Is appreciated is well attested -by me roars ana snouts or laughter and ap. plause that greeted each climax yesterday! And the sympathy of the multitude was very plainly sHown, ' too. In the approba tion given the heroine when she manifested her confidence in the young man on whose name the shuffling marplot undertook to heap obloquy. Gus Mortimer hss the role of the tattered and torn man who sought surcease from unrequited love In drink and a hobo's life, and he does his work remark ably well. Witter J. Baxter Is tho villain, and a rather wooden one, at that. Jennie McAlplne is the heroine, and makes muoh Of her opportunities. Frank Harris does a clever bit of character work as the Pooh Bah of an Indiana cross-roads town. Others In the cast contribute their share toward a successful performance. Ths stage setting of the piece Is excellent. The engagement continues until after Wednes day night, with matinees this afternoon and on Wednesday.

The woman fainted twloe, once after reaching; the station, but t S o'clock this mornlna; she seemed quite calm and collected.

To the best of Fosdlok's knowledge Houser and Ellsworth have never had any trouble previous to that which occurred last night. He could not state whether the two men bad been on very friendly terms before or not, but he knew that they were acquainted. Coroner Bralley took charge of the body soon after the man died. The time of the Inquest had not been fixed at an early hour this morning. ROOSEVELT TO OPEN FAIR Incldeatally He Will Deliver Labor Day Address at Syraease. OYSTER BAT, I I., 8ept.

COUNTY ALLOWED CHANGE IN THE PLANS Commissioners Agree to Let the Pter Tubes Be Made Shorter With oat Redaetloa la Price to Contractor. Robert Z. Drake of the Standard Bridge company returned yesterday morning, and by appointment met County Commissioner O'Keeffe. Accompanied by County Sur veyor Edquiat, they left Immediately to Inspect the bridge over the Elkhorn river near Elk City which was reported seriously damaged by the late high water. Commissioner O'Keeffe and Mr. Drake returned together late last evening, neither of them bearing any scars or other evi dence of wartare on the road. Regarding the charge mads Saturday by Commissioner O'Keeffe that the bridge had not been built aocordlng to the contract and that tbe piers were only twenty-three feet long Instead of being twenty-eight feet long, as called forty the contract, Mr. Drake said: "The order for the Elk City bridge was placed with me August 18. 1900, and at that time was given for a 200-foot span, with tubes twenty-eight feet long from tha grade line to the bottom of tbe tubes. . "Subsequent to the placing of this order with me there was considerable agitation and the county was asked to grant a fran chise for an eractrlo road proposed to be built to Fremont, and which as then pro jected would run over the Military road and across the Elkhorn river on the bridge ordered of me on August IS, 1300. "The brldgs aa ordered at this time did not have sufficient capacity to carry elec tric cars, and after considerable discussion between members of ths board and myself I finally submitted, on January 19, 1901, a proposition to modify the order of August IS, 1900, and increase tbe capacity ot the Elk City bridge over the Elkhorn river, at the same time submitting a modified design with the Increased capacity for such bridge. Plans Were Cbaasjed. "The modifications in such design con sisted of an Increase In almost every mem ber In the trusses over the original design and contract, and also Involved a change In the placing of tbe floor beams above the lower chord in place of their being sus pended below the lower chord, as the floor bymi ot all other bridges previously built In the county had been built.

This design, so submitted, was accepted by the Board of County Commis sioners with the understanding and stipula tion aa set forth in my letter that the charge should remain the same as If built under the original order and contract. This proposition was accepted by resolution of the board on January 19, 1901, and the work was built and today stands substantially complete according to the modified plans as socepted at this time.. "The charges In the final settlement were made the same as though the work had been built as originally ordered and no extra charge was made for the msny addi tions required to build the structure to carry the Increased !cd. There possibly may be a variation of from four to eight Inches between the various tubes as to their exaot length, caused by difference in lap given the plates used in constructing the tubes, but It is absolutely certain that there were six sections of four-foot plates need In the building of these piers, which would make them twenty-four feet high, less the lap, and that It Is four feet from tha ton of the shells to grade line, a total of twenty-eight feet of height of pier from grade line to base of pier. "I may further add that the bottom of the pier la at the exact depth that It was originally ordered to be and that this depth and these piers are below that of any bridge. In my knowledge, on the Elkhorn river, standing today at least thirteen. Jeet, If not more, below the water line. "So far as damage done to the structure by the shifting of the piers, It Is not ex tensive and It will not be a matter of large expense to move them back to their original position, and when so placed thty will be entirely as substantial and safe aa before, as they have not settled a particle. I do not think that tha expense of replacing the piers and spans In their original position will exceed (300, leaving them exactly as when originally constructed."
