Colon, October 15,
1903.
Secretary of the Navy, Washington, D. C.:
Report is current to the effect that a revolution has broken out in the State of Cauca. Everything is quiet on the Isthmus unless a change takes place. On this account there is no necessity to remain here. Do not think it necessary to visit St. Andrews Island.
Hubbard,
Commanding Officer U. S. S. Nashville.
