over Tommy White, of Chicago, by Ref
cree Stewart today at the end OF fifteen
rounds Of fighting before the West End

many at the ringside, was an injustice to
the Chicago boxer. White landed repeat
edly with his left jabs throughout the
fight. In the early rounds Bernstein at
tempted to rush, but left counters, beau
tifully timed, stopped him. In every
round White landed repeatedly with his
left on Bernsteins face. Bernstein would
rally near the end of each round and for
about thirty seconds would rush and

SENATOR BAILEY WON'T
TALK ABOUT PENFIELD

WASHINGTON. July 3.-Senator Bailey
was here a few hours today coming over
from New York on morning train and
leaving during the afternoon for his home
in Texas. His presence in the city lent in
terest to the situation which resulted from
the statement issued and published by
Judge Penfield, solicitor of the state de-
partment on yesterday, in which some
very hard things were said of the Texan.
Mr. Bailey said this afternoon that he
had not read the statement and that he
would not do so Immediately. He would go
over II when his attention was less occu-
pied, he said. after which he would con-
suit with his friends and decide on his
course of action. He would not, he said,
tell members of the press his opinion of
Penfield or Penheld's statement until he
had told 1t to Penfield in person..
Inasmuch as General Funston was CEN
sured not long ago for referring to Senator
Hoar's "Overheated conscience" there is
much curiosity as to whether or not Off
cial cognizance will be taken of Penheld' 5
statement, which contains things infinitely
worse than that said by Funston.
The state department holds that Pen
field was acting merely in his capacity as
a private citizen when he made the state
ment and the matter is, therefore, up to
the president. who was too busy today to
give II attention.

LEADERS OF HEBREWS

NEW YORK, July 3.-Under the au-
spicies of the orders of the b Mai Birth.
a meeting has been held in this city at
which several hundred Hebrews gathered
TO take part in beginning a great Get
Together movement among the race IN
the United States. The new effort is .
part of the plans for the general ad-
vancement Of American Hebrews, which
led recently to the election of DR.. Solomon
Schechter to the presidency of the Jewish
seminary.
Among the speakers was Leo N. Levi,
of Galveston, Tex, chairman OF the ex-
ecutive committee of the order of B'Nai
Birth. In the course of a lengthy speech
he referred to the exodus of the Hebrews
from European countries and declared
that the Jewish race is now passing
through events which surpass in import
ance the exodus from Egypt and the ex-
pulsion from Spain.
"In all the history of the Jews" he
said, there has been no effort to unite
their forces in behalf of themselves. They
have always rested in the hope that some
body would work out their salvation for
them. Perhaps this hasvbeen due to the
differences that have" always existed

BARRIERS TO CANAL

with Secretary Hay on the preliminary
OF the agreement. Mr.. Hay VIII be out
OF the city for the next few days and on
hts return the negotiations Will begin
Minister Concha has been fully clothed
with authority to proceed with the treaty
The main features OF the treaty are pretty
well settled. as the protocol signed some
time ago was quite full in setting torth
the prospective arrangement In case con-
gress acted favorably on the Panama
route.
The amount to be paid Colombia for a
REIMBURSEMENT Of exclusive rights In the
United States viii be 100000 IN gold'
payable on the exchange Of rasthcations
OF the treaty and in addition Colombia Is
to receive an annuity at the end OF -FOUR
teen years to be determined BY mutual
agreement at that time This annuity is
expected to be $685. 900 a year. as the i'm
mediate payment Of S7,OO0.000 covering the
period OF the next fourteen years is con-
sidered a basis for fixing the annual rem
tai at $500. 0Oo.

considerable extent in the transfer OF
such a jurisdiction over the six miles
zone as viii permit the exercise of Amer
lean authority with American courts. san
itary offices. police, etc. The question OF
transferring complete political sovereign
ty is about the only point which could
raise obstacles to the negotiations but II
Is expected that this point will be avoided
as the act o. congress appears to eontem-
plate transfer OF jurisdiction and not
transfer OF political sovereignty.
The Colombian officials in Washington
look forward to a successful consumma-
ton Of the negotiations. They say, how
ever. that there is far less popular de-
mand in Colombia for the Panama canal
than there is in Nicaragua route and this
apathy may delay the conclusion OF nego-
tiations. Treaty will have TO be ratified
by the United States senate and the Co
lombian congress before 1t becomes ef-
fective.
