WASHINGTON, Nov. 23. Secretary
Hay, while presenting the subject of

meeting today, was. not able to report
thai any progress bad been made dur
ing the pant week. In fatt. It appears
that the negotiations have come to a
dead stop, and while no such thing as

situation may'; be described In the
statement' that', the ' Colombian Minis

cannot, in behalf of his Government,

- This state of affairs will . sUmuIate

DEMOCRATIC PRINCIPLES
JUDGE i BOISE EXHIBITS SOME
SPIRIT OF HIS EARI.T PIO
; ': NEER DAYS. -f
In the ,Oibon case, which has held
the attention of Jud?e Boise for two
days and no end yet in sight, occurred
yesterday ; afternoon an incident
worthy of mention as Illustrating the
Democratic' Ideas that Judge Boise has
carried with him from the pioneer davs.
In this ca about twenty of the imi"
diate neighbors of the Iflganis are i in
attendance as w itnesses, and during 'a
very interesting part of the testimony
they.j in con vernal Ion with other spec
tatois, left their seats, and crOW-ded up
to the railing which separate the bar
from ;the seats provided for spectators.
Judge Boise evidently did not notice
this diversion, but one of the attorneys
for the defendant did, and he broke In
upon the proceedings to "pass some
Caustic criticism upon the action of the
"gallery." The, remarks of? counsel
directed th attention of the Venerable
jiidgfe to what had occurred, and: also
caused the eager crowd to surge 'back
toward the . seat's. Judge Boise
glanced at the shrinking array of his
fellow citizens, flushed angrily and In
no uncertain tones remarked: These
people have a right to stand up in this
court room. If they desire to do so."
The abashed attorney - settled back
into his chair, and the crotrd with vis
ible evidences of satisfaction resumed
a place at the rail, and from their ad
vantageous position - listened without
disturbance to , the testimony. Al
though no man has a more profound
rerpeLfor the dlgnijy of his officii
position. Judge Boise; never loses stgnt
of the rights of citizens, nor attempts
to enforce mere conventionalities. And
yet It is safe to say that no man, ever
sat upon the bench and'received more
profound respect at thejba'nds of citi
zens and the bar, ,

bottom during a high wind yesterday.
Ever since the contract of dredging

dredger la , (regarded as showing that
there will be great difficulty In deep
ening the channel into Pearl Harbor as
provided for: by the plans of ithe Amer

and the strong currents make it a task
ot the greatest difficulty to dredge the
