The Revolution in Panama.

LONDON, 6th November. The State Department in Washington has received a telegram from Panama, formally announcing the establishment of a new goy. ernment. The Nashville-huu-jackols have again been landed at Colon, which town the revolutionists are marching attack. When Colon is captured the Republic of Panama will be recognised by the United States, and it is expected in Washington that it will also be recognised. by Great Britain and France.

LATER.

The United States Government has recog. nized the new government in Panama, and it is expected that this will mean a virtual American protectorate. Colombia has sent to Washington a strong protest against the encouragement of the revolution given by the United States. The Colombian federal troops have quitted the Isthmus, leaving it in the hands of the revolutionists. Several New York papers are vigorously accusing President Roosevelt of conniving, and even indirectly supporting, the revolutionists.

Mr. John Hay (Sec of State) has issued a statement defending the United States re- cognition of the independence of Panama, as most strictly in accordance with justice and equity, and the only course possible in view of the fact that the right of control of the Isthmuan transit was conferred by the treaty of New Granada in 1846 and had now become of transcendent importance to the United States through the acquisition of Hawaii and the Philippines. It was the failure of Columbia to ratify the Canal Treaty that caused the revolt of Panama. Pre sident Roosevelt's course was thus clear, viz., to prevent encounters calculated to impede the transit of the Isthmus and to recognise the established Government. President Roosevelt consequently advised a peaceful settlement and had notified the world that the United States would no longer allow bickerings in Panama.

Russia and Germany. Count von Bülow and Count Lansdorff have had a three hours' conference at Darm- stadt,

THE SHOOTING TRAGEDY.

IN THE NEW TERRITORY.

LANCE SERGT. THE CHARGED.

Although the deals of the shooting fatality in the New Territory, on Su-day, were not generally known in the Colony yesterday morning, the sadmessage that Mr. W. McGre- git, overseer of the new, waterworks at Kow- toon, and a native of Edinborough, had been accidentally shot by Lance-Sergeant Lee, who is store keeper at the Central Police Station, was being widely circulated. It was at first rumoured that the fatality had occurred while practice for the Interport match at the Kow- generally believed until; later in the day, when on range was in progress, and this report was the full account, of what must be regarded as

one of the saddest accidents recorded in the Colony, was brought to Hongkong, it seems that on Sunday, Mr. McGregor, Lance-Seigt. Lee, Sergi, Hil, and Sergt. A. Wilson, with whom was a native servant, went deer shorting in the vicianty of Shatin. About three o'clock in the afternoon they were walking on the bills above the little village of Pai Tar, some len ni les frat Hongkong, when the accident occurred. Lance Sergt. Lee was carrying a repeating fowling-piece, and having, as he thought, extracted the cartridges, pulled the trigger and was terror stricken to set his friend McGregor, who was walking some half a dozen yards ahead fall to the ground mortally wounded in the small of the back. According to our information, McGregor was able to mutter, "I'm done," or words to that effect, and expired shortly afterwards. The body was subsequently brought to Hongkong and the funeral, which took place this afternoon, was largely attended. The deceased gentleman was one of the most popular tea in the Government service and although his acquaintance with Hongkong was comparatively short, be had made many friends by whom he was most highly esteemed. At the same time, sympathy is expressed on all sides for Lance Sergt. Ler, who is also another young and popular official.

POLICE PROCEEDINGS.

Frederick Lee (24), described as a Lance ser At the Magistracy this afternoon, James geant, was charged for "that he did on the 8th November, at or near Pai Tan village, in the New Territory of this Colony, unlawfully and feloniously did kill and slay one William McGregor, against the peace of our Lord the King his Kingdom and dignity" He pleaded not guilty.

Insp. Gauld stated that at 30 p.m., by direction of the Captain Superintendent of Police, he placed the defendant under arrest, and charged him with the manslaughter of McGregor.

His Worship adjourned, the case until next Thursday, granting bail in two sureties of $30 Each

OXFORD LOCAL EXAMINA- TIONS.

RESULTS OF LAST EXAMINATION. The Telegraph's Vienna correspondent says that the result of the recent conference Examination Committee (Dr. G. II. Bateson The Hon. Local Secretary of the Oxford Local between the Tsar and the Kaiser was a dis-Wright) forwards us the following results of the tinct agreement ensuring Russia Germany's examination held fast July:- support in the event of Japan declaring war against Russia, and being supported by Great Britain.

LATER.

The report that Germany had promised Russia her active support in the Far Easi is doubted; it is believed that the main out- come of the conference between the T'sar and the Kaiser was the promise of German support to

the Austro-Russian Reform scheme for Macedonia.

THE KINGS BIRTHDAY CELEBRATIONS

IN HONGKONG.

Our Colony is ever to the fore when the occa sion presents itself for a demonstration of the loyalty of its inhabitants, and the celebrati n of Our Gracious Majesty King Edward the Seventh's 62nd anniversary was an opportunity of which every advantage was taken by all classes of our society. Devotion to our Sove. reign is not an appanage reserved to the mighty who sit in bigh places, or to the select few of our plutocratic aristocracy; but is one of those civil virtues of which all the citizens of our vast empire, are so justly proud. Nature smiled on the many to whom this buliday was an occasion of the sight-seeing and rejoicing, and their ready enthusiasm excited by the bright colours fluttering all over the shipping in the har buildings in the city, and by the superb mili bour, and bedecking the public and private tary display of the afternoon, was maintained throughout the day at rescendo, thanks to the truly regal weather that favoured the anniver sary The warships and merchantmen in the harbour were all brilliantly decorated, and it was particularly gratifying to notice the taste- ful display made by the U. B. S. Monterey and the Portuguese cruiser Div. Looking down from the upper levels on the immense land-locked haven, dotted over with cruisers, gunboats, destroyers, liners, cargo-boats and Attered in the north-east breeze, flashing steam launches, all ablaze with busting, which bright hues in the clear sunshine, the scene harbour is one of the most picturesquely situat was delightful and impressive. Truely, our ed in the world, though it is to be feared that with other thoughts that its beauties receive the majority of us are so busy and preoccupied scant appreciation. On occasion like the pre- sent one, when the attention of the observer is attracted to our scenery by some outside chan nel, the scenic splendour of uur surroundings becomes so apparent that one is filled with many of us become accustomed to treat it. At remorse at the sacreligious neglect with which Hoon a Royal Salute was fired. The first gun boomed out from the Naval Yard and the joyous detonations were repeated by the warships; the puffs of smoke from the guns lacking like white plumes as they twined upwards through the fullering flags and melted away in the atmosphere.

THE GARRISON REVIEW,

night fell, the congested traffic eased down, and the streets of the city regained their normal aspect, as the thousands returned to their homes tired with the excitement experienced and enthusiasm displayed, and impressed no doubt with one of the finest military pengants this Colony has ever scan.
