AN OVER-
coat called a "Great
Coat" by the makers, Hart,
Schaffner & Marx. When
you see it, that's what you'll
call it you'll say—"This is
certainly a great." It is in
fact, as well as in name, big,
roomy, double-breasted, for
wintry days and nights—a
great coat. More style than
an ulster. Better see the
great coat—it's great. i

Colon Bte, 14.—A company of marines
from the U. S. S. Prairie landed here
today under the command of Captain
Butler and was entrained for Panama,
whence the marines will be sent to a
point on the coast south of Panama.
This step is in consequence of the re
ceipt of information that Colombian
troops were landed in that direction with
the object of marching on Panama. If
this is confirmed it will mean a long
campaign of guerrilla warfare on the
Isthmus. The destination on the mar
ines is said be Yaviza between San
Miguel Gulf and Tuira River. y
FOUND NO COLOMBIANS.
Search Pur Colombian Troops By United States
Cruisers Was Unsuccessful.
Colon, Dec. 14.—Through the exami
nation of the San Bias coast made by
the United States cruiser Atlanta and the
converted cruiser Mayflower, both of
which vessels have returned here, it has
been clearly established that the Colom
bian cruisers General Pinzon and Car
tagena appeared in the Gulf of Barien
about thirty-six hours after they were re
ported as having left Cartagena. No
reliable evidence, however, could be ob
tained to show that any of the troops
carried by the cruisers had been landed
either on the gulf coast or northwest
thereof.
The Atlanta and the Mayflower made
a thorough inspection of the entire vi
cinity. It was learned that at one coast
point the Cartagena embarked a small
quantity of naval stores, a few bulocks,
some corn and fifty pieces of zinc roofing
but no information could be obtained as
to the direction taken by the cruiser
It has been reported^'j
Colombian troops were landed at a
tain point on the Panama coast, but'the
Atlanta was present at this place at the
time, when, according to tl^ report, the
troops should have been landed, and
saw nothing.
The naval officers found the attitude
of the Indians to be indifferent for cen
turies have ben against permitting aliens
to land in this territory, and. these tra
ditions they still tq^intain. They often
declined to answer the questions of the
interpreters and on several occasions
their information was found to be mis
leading.
The information obtained by the At
lanta and Mayflower indicates either that
the Colombian troops have been returned
to Cartagena or that they have been
landed at some point on the coast be
tween Cartjigena and the gulf of Darien
and may be proceeding thence toward
Cauca.
The Atlanta sailed again toward the
Gulf of Darien this afternoon and will
continue a careful patrol of the coast.
It would be impossible for the Car
tagena and the General Pinzon to enter
the Atrato--River because the mouth of
the river has a six-foot bar. No small
boats are obtainable thereabouts and no
considerable number of troops could be
transported up the river. The only boats
to be had consist of a. few canoes.
The remainder of the marines on
board the auxiliary cruiser Dixie will be
landed Tuesday, Wednesday and Thurs
day next, satisfactory arrangements hav
ing been completed to obtain good water
for thejCamp at Culebra on the line of
the-'Itauuna railroad.

THIS SOUNDS DIFFERENT.
Russia's Reply to Japan Se««s to be to i«in
Time.
London, Dec. 14.—The terms of Rus
sia's reply to Japan have been communi
cated to the Japanese minister here. He
says they are incomplete but he sees
110
reason to doubt that a peaceful issue will
result.
After a careful examination of the
Russian draft of the agreement the for
eign office here is inclined to the be
lief that its immediate acceptance by
Japan is unlikely and looks for serious
pourpaliers dealing with modifications
which may last several weeks.

Seoul, £&& 14.—The Japanese lahded

ANXIOUS TO BEGIN HIS TERM

Gfond Forks, N. D., Dec. l4.-^Mur
derer Martell, who was convicted here
Saturday of murder in the second de
gree with instructions from the jury to
the court for a thirty year sentence, is
anxious to begin his term. He wants
the court to impose the sentence as soon
as possible so he can start in on his long
stunt in the pen. Martell thinks he may
he able to reduce the amount greatly by
good time and hopes for a pardon after
serving a reasonable length of time. It
is scarcely proable there will be an ap
peal unless funds are raised hy negroes
for the purpose, as Martell has no money
and his family is in poor circumstances
