ANOTHER PROOF OF
GERMAnY'S GOOD WILL
Kaiser Asks Uncle Sam TO Look Out for
His Interests On the Isthmus

The German government has given an
other proof Of its desire to be on the
most friendly relations with the United
States by requesting this Government to
instruct It's naval representatives on the
Isthnus OF Panama to furnish protection
70 German subjects there during the
present international political disturb
Ances there
A prompt assent has been given TO the
request and the Navy DEPARTMENT, at the
Instance of the State Department, has sent
instructions by telegraph to Commander
Henry MeCTea, of the gunboat Machias
now at Bocas del Tor,. Colombia, to ex-
tend his aid and protection t. subjects Of
Germany in the disturbed district.
While IL is not unusual for one gov
srnment to ask another government bet
ter situated for the purpose to furnish
protection in foreign territory to nation
ais Of the first government, it Is not
known that Germany has ever made such
a request before OF the United States, par
tieularIy in Latin America, where Ger
man vessels are usually at hand.
Germany's commercial interests in South
America and Central America are said to
be greater than those of any foreign na-
tion, the United States included II is be-
lieved here that the request was based
principally on q desire of Emperor VIII

SENATE TOO HASTY,
DECLARES MR. BACON
Commercial Exploiters the
Only Ones to Profit.

After some routine morning business,
which included the adoption of a resolu-
ton authorizing Senator Plstt of Con-
neetieut to sign bills and joint resolu-
tions in the absence of the presiding
officer pro TEN CMr- Frye, the Senate
took up the bill to provide temporary
civil government for the Philippine ISL
ands
Mr. Bacon Of Georgia, who had made a
personal investigation into conditions in
the archipelago, took the floor in opposi-
tion TO the measure. He suggested the
idea that corporation might be estab-
iished to operate all the mineral lands Of
the islands, and that, said he, would be
an infant corporation compared with the
United States Steel Corporation" Such
company would be absolutely unre-
stricted n its right to buy and hold land
whether a million or ten million acres
If, he added, there was a provision in
the bill that no corporation should hold
more than 5000 acres, that would be a
different matter, but when this bin fails
to make that general prohibition the
question is: Why does it faii?'
Mr.. Bacon complained that the bill
would afford an opportunity for the ex-
ploitation Of the islands before the peo-
pie themselves had an opportunity to say
what they wanted done with their public
lands and that the Senate was In hot
haste, subordinating everything TO the
passage Of the pending bill He would not
say that Senators had purpose in this,
but ne would say that the only material
effect Of the bill would be to put in the
power Of those who wished to exploit the
islands the opportunity for such expIoita-
tion, which did not exist under the pres
ent law

MANY CANDIDATES FOR
JUDGE BRADLEY'S PLACE
h. Randall Webb the Newest Entry in
the Judicial Race.

The mention OF the name of Attorney
H Randall Webb, in connection with the
vacancy on the bench of the Supreme
Court of the District. infused new life into
the discussion Of that subject today at the
City Han. No one doubts Mr. Webb's
qualifications for the position As he is
a Harvard man and former cIassmate of
the President, this combination of circum-
stances, 1t is conteBGed by his friends. will
make him strong factor in the contest
fer the eTmine
The name of Attorney William Henry
Dennis is also frequently mentioned as a
probable successor to the late Justice
Bradley. Mr.. Dennis is acknowledged on
all sides TO be eminentIy qualified for the
position.
OF those heretofore mentioned in con-
nection with the vacant justiceship, Dis
trict Attorney Gould and Attorney Benja-
mia T. Leighton are far in the lead.
