Rear Admiral Glass reports to Secretary of the Navy Moody on the location of U.S. Navy ships, and the location and strength of Panamanian forces. Glass also reports that the Colombians have won the support of the majority of the Native peoples on the Northeast coast of Panama, and then lays out how Colombian forces could use them to mount an attack. Glass reports that Colombian troops have occupied St. Andres and Providence islands, that provisions there are running low, and that the inhabitants are panic-stricken. Glass encloses two provisional maps of Panama from the canal zone eastward.
