OSITION.
PRESIDENT IS FORCE!* OU
OWING O POLITICAL
TROUBLES.
FRIENDS Of CANAL ANXIOUS
FEAR THAT HIS SUCCESSOR
IS UNFRIENDLY O THE
PROJECT.
Washington, May 13. Private ad
vices from Colombia state that there
are three elements opposed to ratifica
tion of the Panama canal treaty. Onft
element antagonizes the feature giving
the United States perpetual control
another urges that the indemnity and
annuity is not sufficient, and the third
element consists of revolutionary
spirits who fear that with the Colom
bian treasury enriched by $10,000,000,
the government's strength will be 'so
increased as to destroy all hope of suc
cess from any revolutionary move
ment.
Dr. Herran. the Colombian charge
d'affaires here, is without oificial in
formation regarding the attitude of
the majority of the members-elect to
the congress.
President Forced Out.
Panama, May 12It is reported here
that President Mairoquin has been
compelled to resign office on account
of political troubles, and that Gen
Raphael Reyes, seoord vice president
of Colombia, will ass .me the presi
dency. Friends of the canal are anx
iously awaiting confirmation of this
report.
The convocation of the Colombian
congress for June 20 is believed by
those acquainted with government af
fairs to mean that President. Marro-"
quin is confident of having sufficient
support to assure approval of the
canal treaty.
Gen. Raphael Reyes returned to
Colombia last March from Mexico City,
where he represented Colombia at the
second international conference of
American states. When interviewed
at Colon

vention. and was not disposed to dis
cuss the probability of its ratification
by the Colombian congress.
He seemed to have reason to believe
that the recent interpretation of the
United States of its obligatory rights
to maintain free transit across the
isthmus, and its manner of enforcing
these rights had created a very un
favorable impression throughout
Colombia. He said "the politicians
who would be called upon to decide
the fate of the canal would not be
likely to forget the humiliating inci
dents that occurred during the recent
insurgent hostilities on the isthmus.
Gen. Reyes, however, in no way ex
pressed himself as opposed to the con
struction of the canal by the United
States.
