Both Sides Are at Washington
Awaiting Decision of Col
ombian Government
THE DELAY is VERY ANNOYING
concha's Action in Holding Up His
Governments Response to United
States Note Not Liked at Washington
Authorities at Bosota Appealed to
in the Matter.

Washington, Oct 3O.-The status
yesterday of the Colombian canal nego-
tiations is that both sides here are
awaiting decision of the Colombian
government as to whether Minister
Concha shall proceed under his original
Instructions to present to the state de-
partment the Colombian response to the
departments proposal fer a treaty.
When the response arrived in Wash
ington two days ago the minister
promptly notified the state department
of the fact, but he added to his notice
the statement that in view Of recent
developments (meaning events that had
started from Bogota on Sept. 16). he
had regarded 1t as his Cuty to withhold
IL until he heard further from his gov
eminent.
AS the state department had in some
way come to know that the Colombian
response would. IL submitted, go far
towards meeting the desires of this
government In the matter of a canal
treaty, this delay was very annoying.
But as the minister had his own notion
of duty In the matter it was decided
that an appeal should be taken over his
head to the authorities in Bogota. Ac-
cordingly cablegram was sent to
United States Minister Hart at the
Colombian capital notifying him of the
action Of the Colombian minister here.
No specific complaint was made. but 1t
was desired to make sure that the
Colombian government knew that the
rote had been held back.
The matter OF objection by our own
officials is the attempt to link the nego-
tiations for a canal treaty. pure AMI
simple, with the discussion OF the ques-
Of our naval officers on the isthmus. 1t
is expected that the delay will not be
long, for even if the Colombian answer
is not satisfactory the United States
government will still be bound by the
terms of the SpoOner act to proceed
towards the construction OF an isthmtan
canal, and the only question to be de-
cided IS as to the method. There are
two ways open even in case of an adj
verse attitude on the part of Colombia;
namely, either the United States gov
eminent to proceed without delay to
complete the treaties with Nicaragua
and Costa Rica necessary for the con-
struction of canal in those countries,
or If this latter course would be adopted
with reluctance, the government might
purchase outright the franchise of the
French-Panama Canal Company and
go on resolutely with the construction
OF the Panama canal, taking the ground
that it would have q right to improve
its own property without reference to
any other government and taking no
further notice of Colombia.

TO THEODORE ROOSEVELT
from the citizens of Valdez, AL
aska, in token of their esteem and
recognition of his friendship, on
his 44th birthday, october %.

. . . . . .
The party consisted Of v. T. Hog.
gait, Robert Blye, Capt. ]. j. Healy,
Mr.. Robbins, Mr.. McNair and r. c.
Helm and wife. residents of Nome.
Valdez and other Alaskan towns. They
were introduced by Representative
Wootten of Texas. The president ex-
pressed his appreciation Of the hand
some present and announced his In
.tention Of having 1t placed conspicu
Hously in the state dining room Of the
white house.
The party extended an invitation to
the president to visit Alaska on a hunt
ing trip, assuring him that IL he would
make the trip he would be afforded tn 3
opportunity to shoot polar bear. The
party exhibited to the president fine
specimens of gold, copper. cinnabar
and other mineral products Of Alaska
and called his attention to the re-
sources, conditions and necessities of
the country. The president was urged
to commend to congress the particular
desirability OF legislation to protect
and promote the interests Of Alaska.

principally because 1t would seem
that the relations between New YORK
and London are closer. Great Bfltalu
i is constantly pointed out as an exam
pie of what continued strife between
capital and labor can effect. Reports
of consuls, reports of commissions APP
pointed by British manufacturers to
study industrial conditions in this
country, and the observations of those
who have individually familiarized
themselves with the situation here and
i'll England, all contain somewhere
emphasis of the fact that the British
laborer and artisan. through strength
of unionism, have been held back by
reason of restriction on output and
limitations OF working hours.
This, in turn, has rendered the man
ufacturer a kind of sluggard in COM
iparison with American competitors.
The English Industrial situation is
apparently paralyzed by the unadjust-
ed relations between employer. and en-
ploye.
Meanwhile the splendid initiative of
the American workman, his desire fol-
lowed by ability to get ahead, and the
good fortune of the employer in find
ing way to treat with his employee
have carried American manufactured
products into competition with those Of
the old world.
In considering the development of
unionism there is exhibited no passion
but fear of the possibility of an easy
solution not being found. If Presi-
dent Roosevelt's action in connection
with the coal strike shall lead to tho
establishment of the principle of ar
bitration. then there will disappear the
grave apprehension which now exists.
The fear is not thats there shall be
strikes, but that their settlement will
not be equitable to both parties. Ar
bitration may be relied upon to solve
this, and for this reason the result of
the coal strike board is awaited with
deep interest

ment In every way possible and some
aid was also given by the Quakers In
Philadelphia and Great Britain In the
shape of stock, goods. implements, etc
The stream of immigration having once
been started, continued until nearly TO-
600 Dukhobors had settled in their new
homes.
The 1901 report of the department OF
immigration showed that there were
fifty-five Dullhobor villages in the Ca
madam northwest, with a total popula-
tioin of 400. Thirteen of these villages
are located in the northeast corner OF
AssinabOia, thirty-one in Yorkton dis
trict and the remainder in the Saskat-
chewan country.
The Dukhobors make all their ar
rangements on a communistic basis.
Generally two-thirds of their able
bodied men go out to earn money, while
the others remain to look after the
farms of the community. The men
proved to be good hands as rule for
clearing rights of way for railroads,
and with experience became good track
layers. So they were utilized largely
in the building of the Canadian North
u,
mites received large sums of money
from the wages of these men, so that
it was not long after their arrival be-
fore they became self-supporting. The
report quoted above says they have in
the aggregate 500 head of cows. and the
same number of horses and sheep.
Recently, however. a strange wave OF
fanaticism has swept over part of the
Dukhobor communities. The first symp-
tom was the appearance Of belief
among them that 1t was sinful to use
animals in any way for food or clothing
or labor. 1t was held that animals were
Gods creatures and man had no right
to force them to labor or to kill them
for food, or to use their products in any
shape for clothing. When this belief
took root many communities at once
turned their cattle loose. gave UP the
wearing of wooden clothes and per-
formed all the farm labor themselves
The government was forced to collect
the stray cattle and sell them at auc-
ton.
The latest development of fanaticism
has been the abandonment Of farms and
dwellings and granaries and the march
CT bodies of the frenzied fanatics look
ing for Jesus" This has brought about
the present deplorable state of affairs.
Some of the Dukhobor communities
have not as yet been infected by this
strange epidemic of madness, and may
not be; but the problem is one to tax
the utmost resources of the dominion
authorities.

tribution OF supplies in Martinique las,

Inquiries which originated in Paris
have been received by the war depart
ment asking what became of the $780,
900 contributed by this government to
be available, If needed, for the Martin
iQue and ST. Vincent sufferers.
A war department official says about
$4,000 OF the amount has been for the
purposes intended and the remaining
$105,000 Is subject to the order Of the
president. The money belongs to the
United States government, but the
president was authorized by congress
to use that amount IL necessary for the

islands. The inquiries apparently are
intended to reflect on the French OFF,

CIVIL WAR IN MOROCCO.
Anti Foreign Crusade Has Become Z
Serious Matter.

Anti-Foreign Crusade Has Become .
Serious Matter.
Gibraltar, Oct. 30.-The anti-foreign
crusade in Morocco has become so seri-
Gus that the revolt threatens to develop
into rebellion against the reigning SOW
ereign, Muley Abdul Aziz. in favor of
his brother, Muley Mohamed.
The present sultan, Muley Abdul Aziz,
by his progressive ideas. He has in
troduced telephones. electric lights, BIZ
cycles and automobiles, and lately be-
gun the construction OF a narrow guage
railroad. He is also accused of leaning
toward England and of being under the
influence OF that country.
A recent incident has served to in
crease the anti English sentiment. A
native recently murdered an English
missionary at Fee and took refuge in
the sanctuary. Under orders of the
sultan soldiers invaded the sanctuary,
seized the murderer, and shot him in
front of the mosque. This incident has
aroused the fanatical population to a
high pitch Of resentment against all
foreigners.
Several tribes in the interior are al
ready in revolt The rebels have seized
the caravan routes and travel into the
interior is dangerous.
Several foreigners are hemmed In at
Mequinez, only thirty-fiye miles south
of Fee. Among them are several Amer
leans. A letter from one Of the latter
George C. Reed, received here today,
says:

grave indeed. II the sultan is able to
call the loyal tribes to his aid quickly
and thoroughly punish the rebellious
.Girwans, who were the chief movers in
the recent raids and robberies, he will
make his position all the more secure;
but if he does not succeed in doing SO
the trouble is bound to thicken. If
were in Morocco merely for my health

possible, tho at present we are as Sc
curely locked up In Mequinez as rats

I'VE DON'T WANT YOU"
No Room in British Columbia for The
Dukhobois.

Vancouver, B. c., Oct. 30.-The reply
sent to the Dukhobors by the premier
and resident governor Ct British CO.
.lumbia is practically: 1--WE don't want
you and your mischievous theories of
nom observance of human law"
Many Of the Dukhobors wrote thru
an agent letter In French TO Lieuten-
ant Governor Jolly de Lotbiniere. a
French Canadian. In 1t they said that
they could not obey human laws, as
they were obliged to do in Manitoba
and the territory. Only Gods law could
they observe. yielding obedience to no
ordinance of man.
They therefore asked the British
Columbian governor to enable them to
settle in British Columbia. Neither the
lieutenant governor nor Premier Duns-
muir liked the frankness OF the Duk-
hobors' declaration, and as they had
not desire to obey human laws. they
sought to come to British Columbia.
This looked too much like a rejection
and the governor and premier resented
1T accordingly.

Springfield, ILL.,, Oct. 30.-Dr. L. c.
Taylor, attending physician to Governor
Yates, has announced that his patient
is suffering with we'll developed case
C: typhoid fever.
Governor Yates has been i'll in the
executive mansion for the past four
days. and his ailment is due to strenu-
Gus campaign work done in southern
Illinois during the past two weeks. DR..
Taylor announces that there is no cause
for immediate anxiety or alarm. but
says that 1t will be at least four weeks
before the executive will be able to
leave his bed. No callers will be adj
mitted to the sick chamber. The fever
of the patient has been intermittent,
but remains at 101. His pulse is eighty
and he is perfectly rational, which are
regarded as encouraging symptoms by
the attending physician.

His father left other sons, older than

He has been progressive ruler. Early
in his reign he abandoned Morocco's
