he kept his promises and showed his

PRESIDENT WATCHING.
Turkish ImbrogHo Viewed From the
Oyster Bay Porch.

OYSTER BAY, l.. l., September 9.-Pres-
ident Roosevelt is watching the develop
n:ents of the situation in Turkey carefully,
but without serious apprehension. The re-
ports made by Minister Leishman at Con-
stantinople are not disquieting in tone. On
the contrary, the minister is inclined TO
take an optimistic view of the situation, SO
far this country is concerned.
The anti-Christian outbreak is serious,
but 1t is not regarded as likely that,
through it. American interests or American
citizens will suffer. Admiral Cotton at
Beirut, in whom the administration has
great confidence, is clothed with ample au-
thority to afford such protection to Amer
leans and American interests as he may
deem necessary. This fact, coupled with
the assurances of the porte that United
States property and people in Turkey are
quite safe, has tended to relieve the minds
of President Roosevelt and Secretary Hay
fl ON apprehension of serious consequences.
The vigilance of the United States au
thorities will not be relaxed however, and
every precautiOn will be taken to insure

BURTON ON THE CANAL.
Chairman of House Committee Inter-

BERLIN, September tive
Burton, chairman of the rivers and harbors

here from his inquiry into the river and
harbor improvements in eastern and south
eastern Europe, says this is the only canal
project seriously considered in Europe that
compares in expense to the proposed Erie
canal improvements. The Rhine-Elbe canal
was estimated to cost $50 0OO. coo, though it
Is now thought 1t will cost considerably
more.

on the Volga from Tyer to Tzaritzin, 1 $50
miles. Mr.. Burton spen. eleven days on
the Volga and then visited the Black sea
karbors, the Danube and the upper Elbe.
Speaking Of his Investigations, which
were begun early in June, he said:
I'VE found illustrations throwing light
upon almost every proposition In the river
and harbor works of the United States.
Everywhere In Europe there is disposition
to make increased use of the inland water
ways, whether rivers or canals The value
OF this means of transpor tatfon Is coming
to be realized more and more. In France
anG Germany and portions of Russia the
quantity of freight carried by water Is in
creasing more than that carried by rail.
There is a strong movement for the i'm
provement of the inland waterways. and
there Is a growing opinion also, though not
as potent or universal In favor Of tolls on
the waterways which are Improved. 1t
would seem that Europe affords better op-
portunities than America to study the
proper relation between railway and water
way transportation. BECAUSE frequently a
state which is improving Its rivers and
building canals also owns the railways.
But for various reasons, the field is not
much better. In some countries the pol
icies adopted toward the two methods of
transportation are widely silinereut In
others the railways and waterways are
managed by different government depart
ments, each trying to make good show
ing and the competition which arises is
almost keen as in the United States'
