APPOINTMENTS ARE VALID.
Question Raised Relative to Selections
for Census Bureau.

A report which gained currency yester-
day. to the effect that all appointments to
positions in the census office. numbering
almost 500. are invalid, is denied at the In
terror Department, Of which department
the census bureau is a branch. The report
was based on the fact that Director Mer-
RAMS commission under the new law Gre
ating a permanent census was not signed
until July and after Congress adjourned.
The charge Of illegalitS IN the appointments
involved the superstition that Mr.. Merriam
who made the appointments, was not in
reality director. but the department takes
the position that Mr. Merriam was at least
defacto director. II is also held that the
approval of the appointments by the Sec
rotary would have had the effect of legaliz-
ing the appointments regardless Of the d.
rector's tenure OF office

TO BE SHELVED AWHILE.
Diplomatic Negotiations Regarding
the Panama Canal.

a definite arrangement, which will shelve
the Panama canal matter in its diplomatic
phase until the return of Secretary Hay
from his summer vacation, it is believed
will be effected before the end of the cur
rent week While Mr.. Cromwell for the
Panama Canal Company has been busily
engaged in questions dealing with the
clearance of title. Senior Concha, the CO.
lomb!an minister. and Mr.. Herran first
secretary Of legation. have been informing
the Colombian government of the status
Of the diplomatic negotiations. There are
quite a number Of important issues hing
ing on the question of sovereignty which
must BE- reconciled. and Senior Concha has
sent several cabiegrams to Bogota explain
ing TO the officials there the nature of the
notifications which must be made in the
treaty before il be finally presented
for signature The minister expects to pre-
sent the answer of Colombia to the pro-
posed notifications this week and then to
set aside the matter until the autumn.
In the preparation of the canal treaty
the known temper of the American Con-
gress and that OF the Colombian legislature
must be taken into consideration and rec
orciied as far as possible. 1t is believe
that the United States government will

the Danish West Indian treaty and hold

the United States in the sealing arbitration
which has been in progress at The Hague
before Dr.. Asser, the Dutch arbitrator.
The latter is now preparing his verdict and
the fact that he called for expert testimony

The gold and silver values in the ore are AL.

the cost Of the copper down to nothing
We are entirely satisfied with ten cent copper,
and at that price produce it at a handsome
profit and pay generous dividends.
