 Time.

London. June liking Edward bore yesterdays journey to Windsor well, but it has been decided that he will not go to Ascot to-day. Queen Alexandra, however, accompanied by the Prince and Princess of Wales and other mem- bers of the royal family will attend the races !n state.

ISTHuIAN CANAL DEBATE.
Senators CuIIom and Kittridge Speak
 for Panama Route.

Washington, June 16.-After discus sion extending over parts of several days the senate to-day passed what is popularly known as the London dock charges bill. The opposition practically collapsed and 1t was passed without di- vision.
 Consideration then was continued of the Isthmian canal project, Mir Cullom, of Illinois, and Mir. Kittredge, of South Dakota, delivering speeches in advo- cacy of the Panama route. The former based his argument principally on the report of the Isthmian commission rec ommending that route, asserting that he was satisfied that a good title to the property could be obtained. MT. Kit tredge not only strongly favored the Panama route, which, in his judgment, was much the better, but also attacked the Nicaragua plan as lacking in deti- niteness. He pointed out that Costa Rica was constitutionally unable to grant the necessary concessions to the United States and said if the Near agua route was selected it probably would be long time before work could begin, even if it ever could be.
 Just before adjournment a spirited discussion was precipitated over mo- tion by MT. Proctor, of Vermont, to agree to a conference with the house on the appropriation bill. Several weeks ago the senate was affronted by mes sage from the house refusing to submit to1 conference certain senate amend ments to the bill. The opposition to Mir Proctor's motion was so vigorous that finally he was forced to withdraw it for the present.

SIXTH WEEK OF COAL STRIKE
BEGINS WITHOUT RIPPLE TO
 DISTURB THE SITUATION.
Rain Falls Nearly All Day Which Kept Many of tho I50,OOO strikers Indoors Conflicting Claims Regarding Num- ber of Firemen and Pumpmen at Work-Mines i'm Danger from Floods.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 16-The sixth
 week of the anthracite coal miners strike began to-day without a ripple to disturb the calmness of the situation. Rain fell nearly all day which helped to keep the more than 150,0O0 idle men
 and boys indoors. Several reports of
 assault upon working men and coal and
 iron policemen were received here from
 different sections of the region, but no
 one was seriously injured. Most of
 these attacks occur under cover of darkness or at starting time in the morning. It was expected that to-day would witness the refusal of a large number of fire bosses and other mine
 bosses to go to work, but the best in- formation obtainable show that the number of men who quite was not large. Tn fact several of the mining super intendents in this region asserted they had more men at work at the engines and pumps than they had last week, President Mitchell and other labor lead CTS question this assertion and, on the yp men who were at work on Saturday re- fused to go into the collieries to-day. Neither side gave out any figures.
 Casper Clark of Toledo, O., president of the International Team Drivers as- sociation, came in for some attention by labor leaders to-day. In an interview he said his organization would do all it could to help the striking miners. He said he will make thorough canvass of the region to learn the sentiment of his men which will help to guide the national association if the miners should ask the teamsters for help.
 There was a revival to-day of the story that the central Pennscylvania soft coal miners would be called out very soon but President Patrick Gilday of the central Pennsylvania district threw cold water on the proposition. He what he had said yesterday, | that the central Pennsylvania men | would not be called out except as an l

ASSUMED BY SEC'Y ROOT.
FULL RESPONSIBILTTY FOR
 MONEY PAYMENTS TO GOMEZ.
If Congress Asks for m Explanation He Stands Ready to Give It It~~Regards That
 His Action wns Dictated by the Wfsest tStatesmanship-Fost of the
War Department Stated.

l Washington June 16.-Secretary Root | has assumed full responsibility for the 1 payment of money to General Gomez by l General Wood during the American oc- cupation of Cuba, and if congress asks | for an explanation of the matter he stands prepared to furnish what he re- that the payments were dictated by the wisest statesmanship.
 At the war department high official
 stated the position of the department in the matter as follows:
 "The conditions in Cuba two years ago
 were precarious. Not Cuban believ-
 ed that the United States government
 ever would withdraw from Cuba and
 the half famshed veterans of the Cuban
 army were in dangerous mood and
 clamoring for their pay General Gomez
 was the head and front of their army,
 and had served the revolutionary cause
 as it's principal leader without having
 received a cent of pay. General Wood
 thought and Secretary Root thought
 afterward, that General Gomez was en-
 titled to consideration; to home which
 was supplied him and in which he en-
 tertained his comrades and to an in- come, which last might be set down as a small offset to the money due to Gomez from the Cuban republic. That the Cubans themselves regarded the matter in the same light was shown by the passage by the present Cuban con- gress, among the very first of its acts, of bill providing a liberal pension for General Gomez. It is believed that but for this assumption of costs of Gomez's living expenses the conditions in Cuba might have paralleled those in the Phil ippines and the United States govern ment after fighting Spain to secure freedom for the Cubans, might have been obliged to turn on them the force of her armies.
 "The necessity being present then, in Secretary Roots view, the only other point was the legality and propriety of the payments. He soon satisfied him. l self that there was not the slightest | doubt on that score. The military gov ernor was obliged to assume the re- l sponsibility for his disbursements and | to exercise his discretion. General | Brooke did this and after him General | Wood and Secretary Root now fully ap- | proves of everything they did, including | the payments to Gomez"
 It is pointed out at the war depart ment as a curious fact that congress | has been in full possession of the infor ma tion that Gomez had been receiving these payments for no less than two years past. The war department that far back submitted to congress the full statement of all expenditures in Cuba and included in the list was a state nent of the payments to General Co., meg.

Thirteenth, Voted for Its Adoption
 Many Cast Their Ballots i'm the Las, Two Hours.
 the fifteen polling places in this city
 yesterday to cast their votes for or
 against the proposed new constitution.
 The vote was the lightest cast since
 New Haven was small place. The
 total number of ballots dropped was 2,756, of which an even 300 were for the adoption of the new constitution and 1856 were against it, making a major ity of 1,156 against its adoption.
 The citizens of New Haven apparent ly didn't let the question worry them enough to get out and vote. for the polling places were exceedingly quiet places. A little over ten per cent. of the total registration appeared at the polls and most of these cast their bal lots during the last two hours given them in which to do so, the early hours bringing out but a few.
 By a glance at the table showing the vote of the city, it will be seen that the only ward to favor the adoption of the constitution was the Thirteenth, thirty four votes being cast for it as against twenty-six against it. All of the other wards showed big majorities against the adoption, the biggest majority being 133 in the Fifth ward.
 The usual excitement at the First ward polls over the result of an elec- ton, was ncticeably absent last even- ing, but six men being there when Mod orator Minor announced the result of the vote throughout the city.
 Up to noon yesterday it looked as though the vote would be much smaller than it was, but the delinquents, who waited until the last minute sWelled it and made it respectable one. By the way things were going up to 1 or o'clock the total vote would have been less than 2,000, but as } 3 clock drew neas the good conscience stricken citizens put in their contribu- tions with rapidity that was surprising to the party attendants guarding the ballot boxes, who had been doing little business early in the day.

AMERICAN HENLEY ASSURED
BOARD OF STEWARDS ANNOUNCE
 THEIR PLANS.
First Regatta to be Held on Ihe SchuyI- kill in July of Next Year-Harvard, Yale, Cornell, PennsyIVania and 0 Other though the Board Does Not Represent Officially Any College or Club.

oHclaIiy Any college or Siups
 Boston, June 16.--The movement for an American Henley has taken definite shape through the organization of the American Rowing association as the outcome of meeting in New York on May 10 of a number of gentlemen in- terested in college aquatics The mat ter of a regatta was left to board of stewards and their plans for the inn mediate future were announced in Bos- ton tonight by R. r. Blake. It is pro- ley on the Schuylkill river at Phi1adel- phia in July of next year. The board of stewards is composed as follows:
 ladelphia-Thomas Reath, William Innes Forbes, Charles S. w, Packard, pr. James P. Hutchinson, Dr. J. Will liam White, Edson F. Gallaudet.
 Cambridge, Mass.-Professor Ira N Hollis.
 Boston--H. l.. Higginson, Jr,, F. c. Storrow, R. P. Blake, pr. Hugh Cabot, w. P. Henderson.
 lCHdCd, IN. 1.-IIOleSSOI w. IT. LUZ rand
 New York city-Julian w. Curtiss, Henry S. Van Buyer, Dr. John A. Hartwell.
 Detroit-Dr. A. H. FlickWir.
 The plan of organization of the Amer ican Rowing association differs radical ly from that at present in vogue. The board of stewards is a self-perpetuative body, with the idea of maintaining its own standard, irrespective of those who may contest in it's regattas. It does not represent any university or boat club and comes into being under the belief that with the increase of interest in rowing among the college men and college graduates the time has come for a forward step in American rowing. The claim also is made that while the national regatta is an admirable and indispensable fixture it does not ap- peal to men who have no aspirations for championship honors.

Albums New and Old.

What is nowadays called an album
is book for photographs, stamps, post
cards, drawings, autographs, and SO
forth. But in ancient times, among the
Romans, it meant something very diff
ferent. 1t was really the notice board
upon which public rules and regua-
tons and the like were written for the
guidance and information of the citi-
zens, and was made of some white ma
terial-hence the name (albus, Latin
white). A heavy penalty was laid upon
any person who disfigured it or played
pranhs with the letters. In the middle
ages the word came to mean list or
register of saints, soldiers and so FORTH
and on the continent it is still used to
describe the catalogue of the names Of
members OF universities and high
schools.
