THE CANAL PROJECT
Lively Contest Probable as to
 Choice of Routes
The Walker Commission Will Report to Congress That the Panama and Nicaragua Routes Are Both Prac- ticable.

New York, Nov. 19.-The Herald pub fishes today the following from it's Washington correspondent:
 Senator Harris, of Kansas, a member of the Interoceanic Canal committee of the senate, is one "f :he first National legislators to arrive in Washington since the election. He told me today that he did not anticipate any great delay in the passage of the Nicara guan Canal bill, which, under a special or der adopted late in the last session, will be taken up on December 10
 ." I know of no dispositiom on the part of any senators to unduly delay the bill. or to offer any amendments of a radical character" said Senator Har- ris. "The greate danger of delay lies in the fact that opposition may be expected from those who favor the Panama route rather than the Nicar- aguan route. The strength that they vii be able to muster will depend to a very large degree upon the report O: the Walker Isthmian Canal commis- sion by the time congress convenes. This report will contain the conc u- sions of the commission, which ale all that we will need.'
 Rear Admiral Walker said today that the commission was making satiSfac tory progress, and would have its pre- liminary report in the hands of the president in ample time to be trans -mitted to congress at the opening of the session. lie said that his report would be full enough to meet al the requirements of congress. as it would give all the conclusions which the com- mission had adopted. The admin al will not discuss the conclusions uf the C m- mission, but it is understood that both the Nicaragua and the Panama canal routes were found to be practicable from an engineering standpoint, and it is found that the cost of completing the Panama canal would be practi- cally the same as constructing the ca nal by the Nicaraguan route. The questions to be considered by con- gress are, therefore, Mhich uf tEe routes is the most favorable from a commercial and military standpoint, and where the most favorable terms Us to concessions and control can be Cb- tained. It is expected that there will be a lively contest between the advo- cates of the two routes, bur unless q very strong case can be made out for the Panama canal, 1t is probable that the Nicaraguan route will be adopted.

THE STOCK MARKET
It Receives New Impetus From
 Later Election Returns.

New York, Nov. 19.--As a result of
 the election the stock market has
 broken away from all restraints; stock
 sales have averaged 1,3O5.O2S shares a
 day, and prices have advanced ma
 terilly since Wednesday morning. No one can be surprised at the improved
 situation. The results of the election were so murh 5ttcr than most people dared to anticipate. and they projected such light and promise into the far fu- ture, that the street became alive with sudden hope" and Discounted in many cases not only the prospects for com- ing months, but more remote expecta- tions. Had the good news stopped with Mir Mckinley and a republican senalle and house elected, transactions might nave kept within bounds; but to have BryaniSm get such severe blow as to make 1t impossible for the errors, of WAlch the democratic candidate was the embodiment, to find party to sup port them through another campaign, was a little too much for the specula- tlNe spirit to withstand. Such d com p!ete success comes as a blessed relief to industrial affairs. Indeed all inter- ests that make for progress cannot help expressing a good riddance to the apostle Of fanaticism, to his declama- tons intended to set classes of our. population at odds w:.h one another. to the silver standard agitation, to the everlasting talk about trusts and other combinations of capital, that are in most cases the offspring of progress while also bringing by the lower prices they introduce so many commodities within the reach of the poor as well as the rich. Of course this sEurt on the exchange does not foreshadow a new speculation. Affairs are not prepared for such a movement. Business pros perity is assured, but inflated values can find no facts or sentiment to sl12- port them

THE PERILs OF CAVE CREEK
Mining in the New River Country.
 Expensive Election.

w. D. Piles, postmaster at New River. arrived in town late yester- day evening. having had a perilous
 time crossing Cave creek, swollen by
 northern floods. He was two hours.
 He entered the flood at o'clock and
 emerged from it at 4. At one time
 he believed his life to be in imminent
 peril. and there were several times
 when he was sure his horses would
 never reach the eastern side. The
 water itself was not so very deep any where, but there was an alarming ten
 dency of the bottom of the country to
 fall out and let him down to unknown
 depths. Mr. Piles understood for the first time why that intermittent water
 way is called Cave creek. He believes that the name, while not inappropriate,
 should in the interest of perfect accu-
 racy, be called "Cave-in creek" He
 desires the Republican to warn peopje
 not to try to cross it until the water
 runs away and the bottom begins to get dry and solidify again. An ineH- perienced man cought in his plight yes
 terday would have at least lost his horses. When he found them sinking he detached them from the wagon and finding a tolerably and temporarily solid place, hitched them to the wagon
 again by means of a long tie rope. By
 frequent hitchings and unhitchings he was able at length to reach firm ground He brought with him sam
 pies of ore from a claim opened by him about five miles from New River. It is called the Lily May. "A part of the ore contains that valuable mlneraI called Wolframite, of which none was supposed to exist in this part of the country. It is found in various places within a ledge twenty-four feet wlde, bua whether it may be found Tn pay ing quantities is yet to be ascert aInPd' The mine is a copper property, and the ore taken from the principal sEatt runs from fifty to sixty per cent. me shaft cuts two siX-inch ledges which seem to be converging. The leGSe containing the wolframite is on the same claim. but distinct and distant several feet from the copper lodges. Speaking of the election at New River MT. Piles said it would have been money in the pocket of the county if none had been held, and the general result would have been unaffected. since only two votes, both democratic, were cast Returns from New River, by the way, were the last tO De re- ceived, and their absence clOuded the outcome for a time. MT. Piles says the returns do not alternately repre- sent the population of New River, nor truthfully represent the political sen timent of that region. There are about twenty-five votes, of which nearly half are Republicans The trouble waS there | was no registration The only regis tration officer who appeared there was an emssary of the democratic central committee. He registered several all but two of whom hap pened to leave the precinct before cleo tion day. These two were the elec- tion officers and having deposited their votes early, waited all day for others, which they knew could not be cast. These votes cost the county S12.5O apiece and decided nothing.

baby show and baby coach parade, rib bon parade, industrial parade, the vari- Ous committees, officers of the car nival, names of the ladies' committees, reception committees, etc. It will have illustrations, picture of the queen, and will be of value in years to come to all the possessors of one. It is expected that several hundred dollars will be se- cured on this programme and all should patronize it.
 Dick Hall, secretary of the carnival committee. and Solicitors Hill and Picotte have started to work soliciting for advertisements for the programme. The latter is going to Tucson tonight to work up special edition for thsIlt city.
 If the plans of the decorating and lighting committee do not go astray, the streets of Phoenix will be simply beautiful and will make the carnival long remembered. Dynamos will be Lrought into the city to furnish extra current and thousands of incandescent lights will be strung along Washing ton street, through the Midway, and wherever necessary to make the streets as light as day.
 The executive committee has decided that the time being short, and the de- sire of the ladies being against having any voting for the queen or maids of honor for the carnival this year. that that part of the programme will be abandoned, and that the ladies com mittee composed of Mrs. Baker, Mrs. Talbot, Mrs. Heyman, Mrs. Price and Mrs. Oberfelder shall have the select ing of the queen, and of her entire court with the exception of the prime minister, who will be chosen by the queen herself. The court will consist of nearly forty persons all gorgeously costumed, and will occupy d magnif- cent throne. The coronation cere- monies with the various reviews ana functions of the queens reign of 1900, will be splendid throughout. As soon as it is entirely formed, prob announced by the committee, the cos tumes will be ordered, and rehaarsals will take place at once.
 A photograph will be taken of the queen and her court in their costumes. and of the queen alone, of the maids of honor separately, and of the ladies of the coronation committee. The re- hearsals will take place in the. hall un- der the charge of Manager Buckley and the ladies' committee.
 The executive committee is meeting with the greatest success in obtaining names for the guarantee fund, and it seems as though the merchants and business men of Phoenix are unani- nous in agreeing to make this carnival one of the greatest and grandestamuse- ment affairs ever held in I,he south west. From now on for nhe rest of the week the subcommittee are urged to hold meetings as often as possible at carnival headquarters and to report their action to the director-general.

ROBSON AT HIS BEST
His Oliver Goldsmith Very Fine
 Piece of Work

In a role which gave him an l0ppor- tunlty for his best work since "Bertie. '' in "The Henrietta" Stuart Robson entertained large and select audience at the Doris theat-r Monday evening. In his addition to his play offering in Oliver Goldsmith the latest effort of Augustus Thomas, Robson brought a very excellent company.
 In mock epitaph Garrick said of Gold smith:
 Here lies Molly Goldsmith, for short
 ness called EolI;
 Who wrote like an angel and talked
 like poor poll"
 It must indeed have been d. difficult work even for such a master hand as Thomas to have depicted Goldsmith as ne really was without somewhat dis turblng our ideals of one of the most beloved of all the writers who have ad- mlred English literature. But Thomas did his work well and chose probably the one actor in a thousand who could Aldle the character properly. As
 Goldsmith" MT Robson is just as one likes to think of the author, a bIunder- ing fellow, with the biggest heart in the world and gentle Irish wit. The miseries which actually beslt the real Goldsmith were butt faintly suggested in the play and the suggestion was in q humorous vein. The play itself has originality in ( nerouS quantities through every enc of the linas, which sparkle from one curtain to the other, gaining added flavor by the utterance of the true personification of the liv- ing man on the stage. The company which supported MT. Robson was prub- ably as thoroughly capable as could be given him. John F. Hcnshaw was David Garrick," q part second only in importance to that of the character of Goldsmith; Stephen Grat.tan was Ed mund Burke; H. A. Weaver. Sr., Rev Dr. Samuel Johnson;" MT. Beaumont Smith played "Boswell;" Mir Frank "Kenrick;" Miss Jeffreys IL wis was Mrs. Featherstone; Ellen Mortimer, Catherine Horneck," and Maude White was Mary HIornecI"
 Henshaw, as "Garrick," fared well, md deservedly, with the audience. MT. Grattan, too, was the recipient of praise for his clever work. Miss White handled the most difficult feminine part. her 1locUtionary ability and a very handsome form and face going far toward helping out the character.

NOT A FOREIGN PORT
Decision of Federal Court in a Porto
 Rican Case.

New York, Nov. 19.-An interesting decision was handed down by Judge Brown in the United States district court, southern district, of New York, today, says the Evening Post, in the actions brought by Joseph Bigley, Christian Huus and Thomas TorSeson against the New York and Porto Rico Steamship company. for pilotaSe dues for services offered and rejected for the steamship Ponce and the schooner O. F. Whittier in June last It was agreed that the libellants were entitled to dues amounting to $171SS. provided that the vessels were bound to or from foreign port and were not engaged or employed in the COasting trade" The Ponce was outward bound from New York to Porto Rico, and inward bound from Porto Rico to this port. while the schooner was inward bound from San Juan to Porto Rico.
 Judge Brown, in his decision, says: Tt is evident that Porto Rico, under the cession of the island by Spain to the United States, is hot a foreign port, as it is subject solely to the soveregnty finds that section Q of thu act of con Sress of April F, 1900, in assimia ting trade and navigation between Porto Rico and the United States ito the or d1nary coasting trade between the ports of the United States practically wipes out pilOtagc charse s.

in accordance with what was deemed at the time to be legal method. Univer- sity addition fearing that it would be overlooked, petitioned for admission. its voice was heard and it was also made a part of the city.
 Then appeared a spirit of opposition by some residents of the annexed areas and rechnicalities were brought up by which all but the University addition Were ''t'run out again." That addition assisted in a friendly suit in the dis trict court by which it's annexation was legalized.
 It came to light that the consent of a sufficient number of property holders had not been secured on the petition Tor the Murphy addition, so that was necessarily thrown aside. The census followed, including the enumera ton of Bennett and University additions. Fol lowing that quo warranto proceedings were begun in behalf of Dennis and Bennett additions, resulting in the re- lease of the latter, the suit in the form r. case never being pressed As the sit nation now stands the city has but one new addition-University in full fel- lowship.
 At last nights council meeting a res olution was passed instructing the city attorney to bring the suits in the dis trict court, necessary for the legal an- neNatfon of Bennett. Murphy and Den his additions. and the south half of Montgomery's addition, a tract that heretofore no attempt has been made to annex.
 A committee representing the car nival association and headed by Di- rector General Lewis and Manager Buckley appeared before the council with a petition for the privilege of erecting booths in the streets and the granting of permits to various attrac- tiOns during the carnival and street fair. The petition was granted. though it was provided that all permits and privileges should be passed upon and approved by the mayor.
 The council appropriated $500 to be used in decorating the city buildings during the carnival.
 The carnival committee was also given permission to erect all the street lights they wanted to for illumination during the festival season.
 great deal of trouble has been made of late by persons who continually ap. piled for the borrowing of city blows. wagons and other property and to put a stop to it an order was passed prohib. iting the lending of any city property by any city officer from mayor to dog datcher.

Stanford University, Nov. 19. Pro lessor M. A. Aldrich, an assistant in the department of economies. rendered his resignation to Professor Jordan to- day as a result of the controversy over the dismissal of Professor Boss, head of the economies department. PIo- lessor AldriCh came to he university last year from Harvard.
 In giving the reasons for his rcsisna- tion, Professor Aldrich wrote as fol- lows: 'I protest with equal onIpha- sis against yaur action In the matter since Dr. Ross made public his state ncent concerning his resignation. l refer to your statement, which ap peared in the San Francisco papers, but most of all to your action ill a k ing pr. Ross to cease teaching al Stan ford university at once, instead of at the close of the present semester. for the sole reason that he had made pub lie his statement.
 " prefer not to appear to acquicSce in the course which has been pursued in regard to the case of Dr. Ross. I wish to make this statement of the reasons for my resignation public. I ask that my resignation take effect at once
 Dr. Jordan, in accepting the resigna- ton of Professor Aldrich, takes eXcep- tion to the statement in which Profes- sor Aldrich criticizes him for asking Dr. Ross to resign at once, after mak- ing public his statement. Dr. Jordan takes the position that his action was based wholly on the character of Dr. Ross public statement and was una voidable. It is not known what in fluence Dr. Aldrich's resignation will have on the other members of the fac ul'y, but it is rumored that other re- signations may be expected.

WRANGL|NG AT HOME
One of the Expected COnSe-
 QuenCeS of the Chinese War
A Germaf Party Accuses Germany of Having Started It and a French Opposition Blames France For Engaging in it.

Berlin, Nov. 19.-At the session of the Reichstag today there was a denial of the report that the Chinese imbroglio is traccable to the German cccup& lion of Kiao Chao. It was greeted by the social democrats with cries of Tt is true"
 Von Buelow expressed regret that such a cry should be heard in the eCir- man parliament. He said; "Wc, With proverbial mOdesty. restrained our selves the longest of all the powers even until the massacre of our mis- sionaries in Shan TunG."
 The statement that Von Netteler, in his labors to bring the Chinese officials to reason, Went without fear to his death, worthy of the land he had yep resented and the name he bore elicit cd tremendous applause.
