Panama, April 24.—As already advised
by cable, a revolution took place in this
City on the 17th instant, which,although
premature and unsuccessful, occasioned
the loss of some valuable lives. A plot
to upset the State Government had been
concooted by several disoffected politi
cians, who, more effectually to accom
plish tbeir ends, attempted to pnrobase
the officers of the Colombian Guards,
then on the Isthmus. This they partially
succeeded in doing. The commander of
the regiment becoming cognit mt ef the
facts reproved and rebuked several of his
offlmra for their course, whicn to greatly
incensed the latter, that ono of them.
Captain Obaldiah, assaulted tho Colonel
wit h bis sabre, only to be shot down by
the Colonel's son, n bravo lad of 18 ycats,
who was a Lieutenant in the Battalion.
Tho row became general and contm-
cod until Col. Catnajil acd his son, four
other officers and several men were
killed, and from eight to ten wounded.
News of the tragedy was soon around
town, nnd theadnerents of the govern
ment party at one, decided to check any
attempt at revolutionary measures, and
to punish tho crimes committed in the
qcarrel. This they did effectually,
maintaining n lire on the National Bar
racks from naif past six nntil nearly nine
the following morning, when the Nation
al troops unconditionally surrendeted.
Thirty killed and as many wounded is
ths record of losses. The city is quiet,
although martial law is proclaimed.
At tho first intimation of the tragedy
in thoCnartol, ihanons spread through
the city like will fire, and occasioned _ in
tense excitement in the business portions
of the city. The stores and varebouees
and publio buildings were hastily closed.
Msdj sympathizers of the Slate Govern
ment rushed to the Caartel in tho Bar
rio of Santa Anna, and hastily armed
themselves to rctu-n later in the evening
to join iolibo attack upon the demoraliz
ed national forces. From rhia time nntil
morning of the lS.b, the assault was
kept up by the State troops, who held the
principal portion of tho c*ty f confinioff
ihe nationals principally to tho CuartaU
of Los Mcnjaa and Obiriqoi, the tower
of San Francisco and tho old church of
Santo Domingo.
Washington.
Washington, May 3.—At the expira
tion of iho morning hour, the Honss re
sumed tho consideration of the bill re
ported (torn tho Coiuags Committee
amending tho statute* r, 1 iting to coinage
and com and bullion certificates.
The House Democratic caucus commit-
tee met this morning, and it ia under
stood that they agreed upon a measure to
be submitted to the caucus, if concurred
In by the Senate committee, whiob,
under the title of “A Bill to prevent
Military interference at the Poils, ’ con-.
lists of the sixth section of the vetoed
Army Appropriation bill, with the words
“civil officers'' stricken out, and a proviii
adied that nothing in the bill Bhalt be
construed zs preventing the nee of the
army to onforoe processes of United
Siat-3 Courts, or to put down resistance
against the United States by armed men.
Washington, May 3.—The House
Committee on Agriculture took up for
consideration to-day the bill introduced
by Mr. Dibrell, of Tennessee; repealing
the tax on tobacco in the hands of pro
ducers, and after some discussion ap
pointed a sub-committee, consisting of
Messrs. Dibrell, Hatch, Henry, God-
schanlk and Anderson, to confer with the
Commissioner of Internal Revenue on the
subject contained therein, and report at
a future meeting. The bill repeals allex-
isting laws levying and ootessing s tax
upon tobacco in the hands of the - pro
ducers, and provides that the word “pro
dacet” shall be conatrned to mean a per
son or persons raising or cultivating tho
same.
Washington, May 2.—Mr. Warner, of
Ohio, offered an amendment providing
that gold and silver bullion which shall
become the property of the government
by the return of the certificates 10 the
Tren.suryjin (paying duea thereto, shall
be carried and paid out the same as other
money. He made an argument in sup
port of his substitute after which Mr.
Chspflin, of Massachusetts, obtained the
floor, and tho House adjourned, where
upon a Democratic caucns was announc
ed to be held forthwith.
The Democratic members of the House
to-day held another caucns, and after an
hour’s deliberation, definitely determined
their lice of action in regard to the army
appropriation bill, and agreed upon the
eiaot terms of the measure to be sepa
rately passed in lien of tbo sixth section,
it being also agreed that til cocsider-
tion ot the remainder of tbo bill shall be
deferred nntil this independent political
measure shall have be«n acted upon by
the President.
It will provide in substance that sec
tions 2002. and 2003, Rsvised Statutes,
shall cot be construed as authorizing ths
presence of the United States soldiers at
the polls, except under orders of tho
President to repel the armed enemies of
tho United States or in pursuance of Con
stitutional requirements upon the appli'
cation of the legislature of a State, or of
a governor, when the legislature cannot
be convened, to repress domestic vio
lence. Tno bill will be acoompaniod by
a short preamble of an argumentative
nature, lo determine the phraseology of
which, and also to agree upon on effective
title consumed considerable time to-day.
Among the titles suggested were the fol
lowing: “A bill to protect tho ballot b:X
from military interference;” "a bili to
prevent the atmy and navy from inter-
ferring with the fceodom of election?;”
"a bili to prevent the control of elections
in the States by the army and navy of
tho United Suites,” and “a bill to pre
vent tho use of the army at the polls and
to promote the freedom of elections.’’ I;
is understood* that tho titlo finally adop
ted is, "a bill to prevent interference by
tho army with elections.” The action
taken by the canens ia substantially in
accordance with an amended report pre
sented to-day by tbo committee to whom
the whole project was recommitted yes
terday. Tho proceedings are said to
have boun characterized by a spirit of
harmony and good feeling.

at onco bo made to arrest some of those
who were present at the meeting at Free

cessory to the deed.

The 1’ernTlan.l'hlllan War.
Panama, April 26.—Lima advices of
the O.h ultimo, say that the greatest en
thusiasm was manifested by all classes
of peopld on the reoeption of tho
intelligence that Chili had officially de
clared war against Peru. On the receipt
of Iho news from Cbil), M. Godoy, the
Chilian minister in Lima, demanded his
passport from tho Peruvian government,
declaring his mission terminated, and,
In spite of the assurances of the author
ities that hi* person would bo held in
violate, decided to repair on board tho
United States steamer Laokawanna,
where be atlil oontinnes. The President,
on the 3d, issued a decree declaring the
repnblio in a stats of war with Chili. The
great majority of the Chilians resident in
Lima and Oallas took passage by the first
steamer for Valparaiso.
Private individuals, from tbo wealthiest
capitalists to the humblest artisans, hast
ened to offer their services and money to
the Government. Beneficiary societies,
religious corporations, philanthropic as
sociations, university schools, foreign
residents, even Chinese domiciled in Lima
and port placed their funds at the dispos
al of the Government. The foreigners
have farmed themselves into companies
d( Dome guard*, and their services were
gladly accepted. Military movements
aro being actively continued.
Gen. Doza. President of Bolivia, was
telegraphed to as soon as the news reached
Lima of tho Chilian action, and is now
rnroute to the coast via Corocoa and
Tacna, with five thousand well equipped
troops. Bolivia, it will be remembered,
oonBented to await tho result of the Pe
ruvian attempts at mediation, and
nntil that proved unsuccessful could, of
course, take ne active measures. Chili,
we understand, has about nine thousand
men nnder arms in the occnpied territory.
Tne number of national troop* was
considerably inferior to that of the
state’*, bat the latter hod the advan
tage of position. Not over 150 were en
gaged on that side. The state troops
numbered abont 300. At 8:30 a.m. a
white flag was displayed from the Caartel
of Los Mcnjaa, and the national troops
surrendered unconditionally to the state
forces. They were marohed ont, leaving
behind them all their arms and manitions
cf war, to the barraoks of Santa Anna,
where they will probably be held os pris
oners for a brief period. The lest of life
is not aoonrately aseerteioed at present,
bnt will probably reach thirty-five per
sons, bssldes a number being wounded. *

door* of its import trade, the German
market bad become a mere storage space
for the over production of other coun
tries. They must, therefore, put up
their gates, and take care that tho Ger
man market, which was now being mo
nopolized by foreign wares, should be
reserved for native industry. Countries
which were enclosed had become great,
and tboso which remained open had fallen
behind.
Tbe Cax Trial.
Atlanta, May 3.—Tho testimony in
the Cox caso to-day took a general range,
so as to bring up all loose ends, and com
plete the presentation on both sides.
Tne impeachment of the witness Sams
was tho principal episode, and to it great
attention was paid. Sams, a week ago,
married a niece of Alston’s widow. Tho
State sought to show that Alston and his
wife had opposed the marriage, and that
Sima was moved by enmity to testify as
he did. The stenographer and members of
tho coronor’a jury testified that Sams’
statement there was read over to him
and opprovsL On tho trial, ho we ver, he
repudiated nearly all the material state
ments and testified that ho had never so
sworn.
Treasurer Renfro and Mr. Milton were
recalled and swore positively to their po
sitions and the sots of Cox and Alston,
as heretofore, all of wbloh had bean ooa-
tradicted by Sam*. Tho defenHS Intro
duced nearly all the officials and many of
tbe citizens of DeKalb oonnty, who testi
fied to Sam’s good character, and that
they would believe him on oath. They
also testified that Cox wa* tho moit ar
dent friend Alston had in bis canvas] for
election last year to the General Assem
bly when Alston was success!qI.
Charles Howard testified to negotia
tions for the purchase of the Gordon
lease; that the sale to him was regular,
and no wrong was done to Cox or ^Val
ters ; also to his efforts to keep Alston
from meeting Cox and Alston’s acquies
cence; also to Murphy and himself be
ing in a dark closet, that it was a consul
tAtion room, and he took Murphy in
there attempting to borrow fonr thou
sand dollars to pay for the lease interest;
heard shooting and camo ont.
Murphy testified to letting Alston have
his pistol—it was an English self-cocking
Tranter make. Alston agreed not to meot
Cox at the barber shop. Hs confirmed
the testimony of Howard as to their be
ing in a dork room, and what they were
In there for, accounted for the disappear
ance of the pistol which Alston used by
saying he picked it up and kept it by the
advice of a lawyer now of the defendant’s
counsel. He produced the pistol in
Conrt.
Tobe Williams, colored, testified as to
Cox and Alston having had a qn&rrel in
the barber shop previous to the killing.
Contracts existing between Cox and Gor
don were introduced in ovidsnee. Sena
tor Gordon was not pat upon the witness
stand.
Cox made a full and lengthy state
ment to the conrt and jury. He sat
down in a chair and spoke fluently and
deliberately, giving his early history,
education, record in the war os $ soldier,
and subsequent life as a farmer. After
tbe war some years, hs settled in De-
Kalb oonnty, near to Alston, bought his
farm there on Alston’s account, and from
that time they were bosom friends. In
1876 Senator Gordon was embarrassed
and interested defennent in convict
laAse, he to have half of the
profits. Alston drew the contracts. He
look in Alston as a silent partner, he to
give Alston half ont of all he made out
of any bnsinees, and Alston to divide
witb,him all be (Alston) made cat of his
offioe'as Assistant Keeper of tbe Peniten
tiary, by hia l»w practice or otherwise.
The first year his profits on the hire of
convict* xu fixe hundred dollars, and be
gave Alston half. Alston got em
barrassed, and defendant gave him
money to go to Washing City no collect a
claim, which he got, and got a $15,000
fee. Alston refused a division, and said
he wanted no more to do with the convict
business. They remained friends, how
ever. When the Gordon interest was
placed in Alaton’a hands, defendant wan
ted to sell also. Walters wanted to buy,
Defendant asked $3,000 for his interest,
aa Alston told him he wonld hold him for
forty-four bales of cotton for the year’s
rental; Walters refused to bay at that
prior as an inducement to defendant to
sell to Walters for $1,500, Alston
agreed to release defendant from
the payment of the ootton; at tbe
barber ibop Alston told defendant
"Yon have made a good thing out of
this.” and $200 (the fee for making the
sale) was not enoagh for him. He said
he had saved Cox’s cotton, and Cox
ought te give him half, or 22 bales.
Defendant replied that nil his _ property
was nnder mortgage, and this would
take tbe bread from his wife and chil
dren. Alston threatened to etep tne
trade. Cox threatened ts erpose the
convict business, and oil parties to it;
also, Alston’s actions abont it in the Leg
islature. Alston said he would kill de
fendant if he did, and called him a liar.
Defendant threatened to knock him down.
Alston told defendant to arm himself and
meet him at some place and fight it oat;
he did arm himself and return at the time
fired; sent word to Alston, and reoeived
Alston’s message; went then to the Capi
tol to make Alston agree to settle up their
business relations finally, and not for
the purpose of fighting Alstoo.
The latter met him and
they had the talk testified to, except
that Alston proposed to fight defendant
—said he wonld board the next train with
hia. Alston sail, “Doyon want to shoot
it out ?” He replied that any way suited
him. Alstoe said, “Dayou want to shoot j
now,” and rose. Defendant was at the
door with a view of leaving, when Alston
drew his pistol, and ho drew his. Alston
fired twice and struck him in the mouth,
which ahot knocked him to the floor.
Alston shot him in the hand and he was
dazed by the shock; his head buzzed,
and ho canid not hear the shots. As
soon as cor 11 do so he rose and fired at
the largest bulk of Alston lie conld see
through the smoke and saw AlBton sink
down. He then Eat down. He only
shot Alston ia self-defense. He was his
best friend, and he did not want to kill
him.
The case was adjourned until Monday,
when argument will begin. Three of
the strongest counsel will argne each
aids. Interest in the trial has grown to
bo universal. The pnblio sentiment is.
nearly wholly against Cox. Neither the
latter nor his counsel are sanguine.
