NOT AGREED ON CANAL
Belief Still Exists, However, That the
Panama Route VIII Be
Favored.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-The members Of
the Isthmian canal commission met at
1890 a. m. to-day. They expect to re-
main in session until a decision is arrived
at and report may not be made to the
president until late in the day, if then.
Admiral Walker, chairman, made YER
bal, though informal, report to Secretary
Hay to-day as to the conclusions SO far
reached by the commission respecting the
last offer of the Panama canal company.
1t is believed that the report that
will be agreed upon will favor the
offer of the Panama Canal company
to sell its concession and property for
$40, O00, 900. This sum is to pay for prac-
tically everything the Panama Canal COM
pany has on the isthmus, including 6S,800
shares of the Panama railroad, out of a
total of 10000; hospitals, administration
building, and rights and franchises en-
joyed by the company. 1t was desired by
the commission to avoid presenting two
reports. All previous reports have been
made by the entire commission, and Rear
Admiral Walkers diplomacy was harshly
tested in the effort to keep this record
unbroken.
Senator Morgan, who has great influence
in the senate. will fight with the utmost
vigor the effort to sell the Panama prop
erty to the United States. Should the
French government itself approve the
sale, Senator Morgan will continue hos
tile to the project.
The supplemental report of the commits
sion was delivered to the president by
Admiral Walker this afternoon.

TAXES OF CROKER

He NeSlects Payment and Is Forced
to Settle, With Interest.
Neso York s,sa, Special Service
New York, Jan. 1s.-Among the several
thousand citizens to whom Controller
Grout caused notices to be sent ten days
ago, informing them that they were in ar
rears for taxes and that unless they paid
up by noon Jan. II, their names would be
given to the city marshal as defaulters,
was Richard Croker. Last year Croker
was assessed for personal taxes upon a
basis Of 1000. In the spring when he
went away to Europe he failed to pay
up.
Mr.. Croker duly returned in the autumn
but the whole question seems then to
have passed from his knowledge. Two or
three days before Commissioner Sheehys
term Of office came to an end, report has
it, that he reminded the boss that his
tax was still unpaid and again suggested
that Mr. Croker should allow him to put
things straight on the tax books Then.
so report records, Mr.. Croker expressed
great deal Of surprise over the non
payment Of his tax. He said he would
in few days go down to the tax office
and make good.
Apparently the circumstances again
mer head of all the Tammanyites was one
of the multitude who were CURLY told
that unless they liquidated the claims
the city had on them their accounts
would be handed over to the city marshal
for him to collect. The hour Of grace
given to these delinquents expired at
noon to-day. Forty-five minutes before
that time, Croker entered the Office of the
receiver of taxes. He presented a check
for $5S7 and asked for receipt. This
was refused him until he had paid the
interest in addition.

THREE HUNDRED DIE
Most of the Deaths at Chi1pancinEO
Occurred in the Parish
Church.

Mexico City, Jan. 18.-One of the most
terrible catastrophes in the history OF
the state Of Guerrero is reported to nave
occurred late Thursday afternoon, when
an extremely violent earthquake shock
was felt at Chilpancingo, causing great
loss Of life, and injuring many persons.
Probably 800 persons were killed and many
more injured. The state capitol, the
parish church and many business houses
and residences are in ruins, and there IS
much suffering result Of awful sels-
mic disturbances.
One Of the edifices that suffered most was
the federal telegraph office, which explains
the paucity of news that has so lar
reached this city. The number of deaths
was greater in the parish church than IN
any single place, as a crowd Of Worshlpers
had gathered there for the afternoon
service The solid walled roof came
topping down on the worshipers and sew
eral people were killed.
1t is believed that this is one Of the
most destructive seismic phenomena that
has occurred in Mexico. The greater part
of the population of Chilpancingo is camp
ing out under tents around the town,
which is five days journey from the ma
tional capital. The state Of Guerrero
has always been the focus of seismic dis
turbances. The duration Of the Chllpan-
cingo shock was less than that in Mexico
City, lasting fifty seconds, against nifty
five seconds at the capital.

charged with the arrangements for the
reception and entertainment OF Prince

many cities to have the prince visit them.
1t Is likely that besides New York Wash

include Chicago only Of the large cities.
1t is also decided, owing to- the tide, to
have the launch enter on the. original

The prince will come to Washington
from New York, arriving here on the

and conveyed to the German embassy.

Monday evening the presidential party and
the prince will leave Washington for New
York and will see the launching at lO:30

On the 9th he is to be one OF the COM

Victoria, B, c.. Jan. 1S.-Captain Fleet,
senior officer of the Esquimault station,
suggests that the overdue sloop OF war
Condor, is, no doubt, sailing to Honolulu,
having used up her coal. Owing to the
extra labor entailed Oh her engines by the
severe storm in which she was caught
on the night OF the third and being
obliged to make sail, her progress would
be slower, more especially as at this sea-
son Of the year Honolulu is not in the zone
OF the trade winds.
This, he thinks, will detain the sloop OF
war long beyond the time originally
scheduled for her arrival in the Hawaiian
port. He points out that it is rarely in
deed that British man of war is sWamped
by sea. no matter how heavy the storm.
He is confident that when he receives his
mail in a few days. it will be found there
has been no ground for the apprehension
felt.

WHERE CUMMINS STANDS
INCREASED RX. ASSESSMENTS
Questions Suggested by Him to De-
termine Accurately Gross and
Net Earnings.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Des Moines, Iowa, Jan. 1S.-The first
thing to be taken up by the new executive
council. headed by Governor Cummins,
when it met this afternoon, was the rail
way assessment. Governor Cummins
submitted to the council a list of questions
which he desires to have added to the
blanks as now prepared, on which the re-
ports are made to the council by the
companies. The purpose of the questions
is to arrive accurately at the gross and
net earnings of the companies.
One of the questions relates to what ex
tent the railroad companies have charged
up renewals in the expense of mainten-
ance, and whether these alleged renewals
show the full sum expended in making the
Improvement or only the original cost OF
construction.
Governor Cummins has failed to take as
radical a stand on the railway assessment
question as many of his supporters hoped
he would in not recommending to the
legislature laws that would take all dis
erection away from the council in making
assessments. However, he has indicated
strong purpose to investigate fully into
railway assessments and little doubt is
entertained he will support a large in
crease of assessments when the council
takes final action next spring or summer.

URBAN GROWTH
Seemingly Paradoxical Con-
ditions Reported by the
Census Director.

Washington, Jan. 1S.-The director or
the census to-day gave out a statement
regarding the growth of urban population
north and south. The large cities, taken
collectively are growing nearly twice as
rapidly as the rest of the country. The
percentage fthe population of northern
states living in large cities is nearly three
times as great as the corresponding per-
centage in the south. The north has a
rate of increase no greater than that of
the south. The large cities in the north
are growing much faster than those of
the same size in the south, but this diff
ference is balanced by an extremely rapid
growth OF small towns and cities in the
south and especially by the high rate of
increase of southern rural population. The
statement says the results seem paradox
zeal, but are correct. -. s5E-.t4t-s
