SENATOR FRYE,s Prophecy.

Two Years Ago He Publicly spoke of
the Corruption of the Panama Canal
Company-Diferent Nature OF the
Nicaragua Canal Scheme.
WASHINGTON, Dec. 27.-Two years ago
In a speech at Portland, Me-, Senator Frye
said that time would show that the whole
Panama canal scheme was corrupt and that
within year or two at least that light
would be thrown upon 1t and the French
republic would tremble under the shock.
The prophecy has been fulfilled. There
has been talk to the effect that the Panama
and Nicaragua canals are parallel and that
the disaster that has overtaken the French
people will cause public men in this coun-
try to hesitate in giving their votes to
sanction the guarantee Of the Nicaragua
bonds, fearing that q great scandal might
result.
Mr.. Frye can zee nothing of the kind and
ia emphatic in his declarations to that ef
fect. "The two cases." said he to-day,
care entirely dissimilsr. There has never
been In this country any corporation clam
oring to put Its stock on the market; news
papers nave nor Deen sought 10 Doom the
enterprise, and the whole land has not
been honeycombed with the agents of the
Nicaragua company seeking to sell the
stock of the concern. The act of congress
was not of the corporations seeking, but
congress, on the contrary, believing thst 1t
should know the condition OF affairs, COM
PEELED the company to make q report and
show what 1t was doing. For myself,
believed that the government should have
the matter under its charge, and for that
purpose I introduced bill authoriz |
ing the appropriation of 500, 000, 900 |
for the construction of the Nicar- |
aqua canal, the money to be paid out |
from time to time under the direction of |
he secretary of war. How any one can |
conceive that there should be any scandal |
here I cannot possibly see. The whole |
Panama scheme was corrupt from the |
tart. There is no reason why any legis-
ator should be afraid to vote for the bill
which has in view the control of the
Nicaragua canal by this government. I
believe this measure will pass the senate,
,ut cannot make such prediction as to
is chances in the house of represents

q purse of s45. 900 for a fight between Nc
Auliffe and Burge for the lightweight
championship, announced to the repre-
sentatives of the principals that the club
would withdraw the purse.
The only explanation OF Newton's action
is that his patience and that of the other

and they determined that If the men did
not agree to-day to throw up the affair In
utter disgust MoAuliffe says he viii
tight Burgs for anything. Hewill meet him

A
Revolution
In Eating


has been brought about by the
introduction of CoTToLENE, the
new vegetable shortening. The
discoveryo of this product, and the
demonstration of its remarkable
qualities, has attracted the widest
interest. Hitherto the common
shortening has been lard, or
Indifferent butter. Every one has
probably suffered occasional dis
comfort from lard-cooked food,
while it is we'll known that thous-
ands are obliged to abstain entire
ly from everything of that kind.
To such people, CoTToLENE is of
peculiar value,~widening as it
does, the range of what may be
eaten and enjoyed. CoTToLENE
is a cooking marvel. 1t combines
with the food-imparts to it a
tempting color, a delicate flavor,
and an appetizing crispness.
No trace of greasiness remains
to offend the taste, or disturb the
digestion.
CorroLENE is worthy of the
careful notice of all those who
value good food, of itself or for
its hygienic properties.

THE CHESS TOURNAMENT.


Presentation of the Challenge Cup
Appropriate Ceremonies-ResuI of
the Opening Games.
NEW YORK, Dec. 27.-The college chess
tournament was begun this evening at
Berkeley school. Previous to the begin
ming of the games the presentation of the
challenge cup took place with appropriate
ceremonies. The main floor of the school
was we'll filed with young men and young
women when George L. Ives, Columbia '8s,
called the sssemblage to order and told
of the efforts that had brought about the
present competition between Yale, Har-
ward, Columbia and Princeton, the four
leading colleges of the country. The cup
is to be competed for annually and the
names of the team winning it each year are
to be inscribed on it, and the winners are
to receive gold medals. J. Walter Smith,
Harvard 1913, read a poem appropriate to
the occasion. The Hon. Chauncey NJ.
Depew then. on behalf of the donors, pre-
sented the cup to the committee.
Benjamin B. McAlpin, Princeton 1913, &C
copied the cup on behalf of the commit
tee.
The results of to-night's games were as
follows: Ewing defeated Lebaire after
forty-six moves, Hynes won from Ballou
after thirty-two moves, Dickie sacrificed
piece and will probably lose to Bumstead,
Skinner and Wilson have an even position.
