Sloan Is SUSPENDED.

SAN FRANCISCO. March 2. Todd
Sloan, the lightweight jockey, has been
indefinitely suspended by the board of
stewards for the miserable manner in
which he rode Tigress III the second
race at the Bay District track yesterday.
Tigress was a hot second choice. and
probably carried more money than the
favorite. When in the stretch, with
Tigress on the outside and passing the
bunch, suddenly Sloan pulled the mare
over behind the leaders and got into
pocket. The board of stewards after the
race sent for the bookmakers' sheets,
and will thoroughly Investigate the
matter. Those who know Sloan best,
however, say that they do not think he
purposely lost the race.

HUNDREDS OF MILES
Will Be Cut OFF by a Proposed
Canal.

Special to the Globe.
WASHINGTON, March 2.-The bill
providing for preliminary survey!
through Canada from Georgian bay to-
Lake Huron for a ship canal suggests
great possibilities of navigation from
Lake Superior to the seacoaSt when
Canada shall have become a part of the
American Union. Something ia the
neighborhood of 700 miles in water
navigation would be saved between Du-
luth and the Atlantic coast by the con-
structi0n of canal less than go miles
in length. 1t is also suggested that the
canal is entirely feasible. that there are
no highlands or mountainous regions
intervening. but that from Georgian bay
to Lake Huron direct is really a
meadow only few feet elevated above
the surface of the two bodies of water,
and that the proposed canal would long
since have been built except from the
fact that the suggested enterprise lay
entirely within the borders of foreign
country. Some time the Georgian bay
and Huron canal will be facial that
indefinite period when the Canadian
provinces have become states in the
great American Union.

Brewer, Taft, Dundy, Pardee and
others in connection with the investiga-
ton of Judge Jenkins decision restrain
ing railway employees. Representative
Somers, of Wisconsin, appeared before
the committee and argued that it was
unfair to single out the Jenkins de-
cision. He said there was no opposi-
ton to the Jenkins Investigation, but
the inquiry should at least include the
decision of Judge Dundy. who was
more severe on employees than was the
Jenkins decision. The com mittee con-
cluded, however, not to eomplieate the
Jenkins investigation by going into
other decisions, and a report to that
effect will be made in the house.

quietly; but the action taken today by
President PeiXoto would seem to denote
that further trouble is brewing, and
that the end OF the wearisome revoIu-
tlon is not so near at hand as it was at
FIRST believed. President Peixoto today
Issued two important DEGREES. The
hrst of these announcements calls for
an increase in the strength of the regu-
lar army, and will, therefore, impose
additional burdens upon the people, and
increase the already heavy taxation to a
great degree. This increase of the
strength of the regular army is said to
be the first step in movement to crush
out the rebellion in this neighborhood
and i'll the South. and should this object
be attained it may be said that the adj
ditlonal burden which the people will
be called upon to bear will after all be
blessing in disguise.
Inc second decree issued by the
president provides that persons accused
or treason shall be tried by military
law, which would seem to indicate that
additional repressive measures are nee.

AT the same time it is announced that
martial law will not be proclaimed so
