Easle Bureau, 60S Fourteenth Street, Washington. November 14 The Navy au-! uiui.iitra ueiu IlUVe receiVCQ UO I1I1U1D1HUDI1 to the effect that a large body of Colombian troops Is marching on Panama. The prcseut force on the Isthmus is regarded as adequate to meet any emergency. Since I his government declared thai Colombia shall not land troops on the Isthmus of Panama the armed forces of this government at the seat of possible trouble have been greatly increased, and if it should be necessary could probably stand off the. entire Colombian army.

Hear Admiral Glass is in command of the' isthmus, and will continue in that capacity, i Mrs. W. H. Reynolds and Some Women even after the arrival of Rear Admiral FHends Thrown Her Automobile Coghlan in the Mayflower. The latter Is In command of the Caribbean squadron and will i lu Jamaica Last Night, be In control of tho fleet.

The vessels now i at the Isthmus, together with their comple- ment of men and murines, are as follows: Atlnnta. 24S men and 40 marines; Dixie. 1S! wvn' out, but no damage was done men and 233 marines; Marblehead. 224 men poking of a rear guard on maminc.

General Elliott, commandant of the marine corps, is well satisfied with hU representatives on the isthmus. The present force of marines there will be almost doubled in a few days, when the Prairie, with some four hundred marines, will at rive.

This vessel ts ostensibly for Ouautananio. but It Is dollars lo dec that she will not remain ut that port i thau ten hours, but will eventually wind en at Colon. All the men who have been ordeied to report on the Prairie are going with the understanding thai tiii Isthmus of Panama is their destination. Titr detain nciu of marines now at Colon is under the command ot Major L. Lejcune, who went down on the Dixit).

Like many of the marine corps officers, he is young for his rank, being only a little more than 30 years of ago He saw service on the cruiser Cincinnati during the Spanish War and has a good record. Major Lents C. Lucas will be in command of the battalion on the Pra I -lie. He has also had war service, being with the band of gallant marines at Guan-tunjmo during the Spanish War. If the two battalions ere mobilized, as Is likely to be' the case.

General Elliott will send a colonel to command them. The State Department officials state that If Colombian troops were marching upon Panama they would certainly be Informed by their agents In the south, the cables being still open. These officials scout the idea that any such march Is In progress, as the Wife Revokes Power of Attorney Held by Her Husband.

MAY HAVE FORMED NEW GOSPEL Fragment Contained Discourse of Christ Closely Related to Passages of Sermon on the Mount. London, November 14 Many hitherto unknown sayings of Jesus Christ havu been discovered in Egypt by archaeologists who have dug up papyri, burled since the second century, 100 miles south of Cairo.

Dr. Bernard P. Grenfell. who has been engaged in Egyptian exeavatlonB since 18SI4, nt tho general meeting of the Egypt Exploration Fund here, yesterday, gave the following details: Accompanied by Dr. Hunt, Dr.

Grenfell found a rich Plolemalc necropolis at El-Hlbeh. The bulk ot the documents from one mound consisted of a colli ctlon of sayings of Jesus. They are all Introduced with the words, "Jesus saith," and for the most part are new. The ends of the lines, unfortunately, are often obliterated. Apparently all the sayings were addressed to St.

Thomas. One of the most remarkable Is: "Let not him that sceketh cease from his search until he find, nnd wnen he finds he shall wonder; wondering he shall reach tho kingdom, I. the kingdom of heaven, and when he reaches the kingdom he shall have reBl." Dr. Grenfell remarked that enormous inter, est would be aroused by the discoveries, on account of the variations they disclosed from accepted texts. One variant of the mystical saying, recorded in St.

Luke, "the kingdom of God Is within you." was of great value as the saying in the papyrus appeared In quilo different, surroundings from those attributed to it by tho evangelist and extended far Into another region. According to Dr. Grenfell these sayings formed the new gospel, which Is traditionally associated with St. Thomas. An interesting variation of the Gospel according to St.

Luke "Woe unto you, lawyers! for ye have taken away the key of knowledge; ye entered not In yourselves, and them that were entering In ye hindered," reads In the papyrus: "Ye have hidden the key of knowledge, yo entered not yourselves and to them that were entering in ye did not open." Another fragment contained a discourse of Christ, closely related to passages of tho Sermon on the Mount, and a conversation between Christ and his disciples, In which Christ nnswers a question as to when His kingdom will be realized, saying: "When ye return to the statu of Innocence which existed before the fall." A valuable find was made In Papyri, wrlttea In Justin, giving the text of tho Epistle to tho Hebrews, and an epitome of Llvy's six lost books. This with other papyri covering the period 150-137 B. threw much new and valuable Information on the history of the world and marked the recovery of thitherto lost classical literature of Egypt. A quaint instance of the business methods In vogue In 1.17 A. I).

Is shown in the discovery of an amusing contract whereby a slave-boy was to be taught shortland for 120 drachmae. The payment was arranged on a thoroughly businesslike basis, forty drachmae down, forty on satisfactory evidence or progress and forty on the attainment of proficiency. GERMAN RECOGNITION.

BOTH SIDES ARE CONFIDENT. Town in Holiday Attire How the Rival Teams Line Up Crowds Go From New York. New Haven, November 14 Yale will meet to do battle with Princeton, in the annual championship foot ball game, on Yale Field, this afternoon, in the presence of about 29,000 spectators, the largest audience that has witnessed a Princeton game, and a greater crowd even than that which saw Yale defeat Harvard here last year. The teams, In (lie opinion of thoso who are considered experts, are unusually well matched, both having heavy lines the bulwark of defense strong, aggressive backs, and brainy, resourceful Utile generals to give the signals. In every department, especially In the punting line.

It has been pointed out by critics that ono team has little advantage over the other. Predictions on the outcome have depended upon the college affiliation of the prophel. To-day the loyal men of Yale forged to the front with clalma. and the morning report that, the team was In excellent shape physically brought forth greater confidence than was expressed Inst night. Both Sides Are Confident.

Princeton men. equally confident In their claims, poured nto the city on the caiiy trains, and hotel corridors nnd the streets around the university were, soon filled wilh enthusiasts. Yale men themselves were' early astir to learn Ihe weather proepectB. These were not disappointing, although they could have been better, for the air lacked the frosty crlspness which is the Ideal for foot ball, nnd the sky was gray wilh clouds, brought In by a mild west wind. For the spectators the cloudiness of the early morning was somewhat, unpleasant, but the weather wise said this condillnii waa only temporary, and did not mean rain for the afternoon, but was caused by the advance of a slight cold wave moving slowly.

Field in Fine Shape. Early coiners whlled away the time during tho morning by a trip out to Ynle Field and to points of Interest. The field was in the finest condition possible, for no game this season hns been stubborn enough to tear up the turf, and ihe absence of a freeze ha. kept It perfectly level. The dally routine ot the university was not Interrupted during the morning nnd at chnpil services many alumni worn In tho galleries.

Members of the Yalo font ball squod, some of them Inclined to nervousness, were kept well In hand during the morning hy Trainer Murphy, but the nnn-commltttl attitude of Head Conch Clmdwlck and Captain Hnffcrty aa to the lineup ot the learn gave rise to a speculation among undergraduates. Yale Plan of Battle Uncertain. It wn. ststed that there was a difference of opinion as lo the plan of battle. In view.

Whether Bowmnn should he used for his punting ability to match DeWItt, or whether Fnrner should go in to be used for his line plunging was a qiiesilnn long discussed. It wus slated with authority thut It was likely that two bcIb of hacks would be usetfabefore the game wi.a finished that the beat man might he picked for Ihe Harvard game. The ability of Itorahack, at renter, lo hold Short of Princeton, who Is opposite him, and nf Bnichelder, nt left guard, to keep DeWItt busy and not get himself Into trouble were other questions gone over. Yale men seemed to hsve supremo confidence In the rest of the team. Transportation Facilities Good.

The incoming of Ihe host of people found Ihe arrnngenienis for the game In splendid shape. Electric ar were run from the city io the field on belt line for tho first time, a loon near the field having been ron-siructed. The railroad had more special foot ball trains than ever before. An Informal Ion bureau was eatuhltshed at the l'nlnn Hiatlon and illagranw of the track, conspicuously posted to nvold confusion after the game. The city, aa on so many occasions, wsa brlKht with color from Ihe station to the field.

Florists, with voltlen tinted chrysanthemums ond with violets, and fakirs with souvenirs, all did heavy business. Many ileketa were round In Ihe hands of speculators on Ihe street last night snd be-fore the game, but were kept do.vn nnd In few Instances was mure than naked. Probnble Line-Up. Princeton men were numerous on Ihe street by ID o'clock ami they aeemett happy. The Yale conches divided the time between Ihe gvmnanlum nnd the New Haven Howe, but they would not talk a In ill Ihe tenm.

The death uf a retired German army officer In Budapest a little more than a month ago has resulted In a young Brooklyn woman falling Into possession of a neat fortune estimated to be In the neighborhood of The fortunate young woman Is Miss Cornelia Grosi: of 173 Hicks street, and tne intelligence from nbroad announcing that she would Inherit the goodly sum has not set her heud spinning with visions of the evanescent joys that American ducats can obtain. She Is a foreigner and trade of sterner stuff than some of the American maids, and her one nmbltion Is to do a good work In the Interest of others rather than lo have all the good things of life for herself. Miss Grosz is an ideal type of the nhvslcal culture girl, decidedly pretty, and possesses a wealth or black tresses that enhance her beauty.
