veIt-E iected by Officer.


Washington Nov 19.-Mrs. Car

role of sensational scene in the
White House today.
Her request to see the president be-
ing refused, she became violent and
had to be taken from the executive

ticulating violently:
II am going to pray for prohibition
president and we will have one--one
who VIII represent the people and not
the distillers and the brewers! You
may put me out of the building, but
if a brewer or a liquor dealer were
here he would have been admitted at
once"
Accompanied by a young newspapers
man, Mrs. Nation called at the execu-
tive offices and asked to see President

black silk dress and wore closely fit
ting black velvet bonnet. She gave
her card to the venerable doorkeeper,
Arthur Simmons, who, recognizing the

AT LAST PANAMA
TREATY IS SIGNED
Subscribed TO by Secretary

PRESIDENT HAS BEEN ADVISED.

Panama Cedes to the United States
Whatever Land in the Republic the
Government Shall Find Desirable In
Building.
Washington, November 19.-Secrc-
tary Hay and NJ. Philippe Bunau-Va-
rilla, the minister from Panama, last
evening signed the y-Bunau-Varilla
treaty, providing for the construction
Of the Panama canal by the United
States. The ceremony occurred in
Secretary Hays study. The Panama
minister arrived at Mr.. Hays house
promptly, having made an appoint
ment with the secretary for a confer
ence. He was surprised to find that
the secretary had before him the treaty
engrossed in duplicate. The secretary
informed M Bunau-Varilla that he
was ready to sign the treaty. The min
lister read the document carefully and
then he and Secretary Hay attached
their signatures to it.
Hearty congratulations were ex'
changed and it was agreed that the
news of the signing of the treaty
should be kept from the public for the
present. President Roosevelt was
Immediately advised of the signing OF
the doucument, and Minister Bunau'
Varilla sent confidential cablegram
to his government, stating that the
treaty had been signed.
United States May Fortify Terminals.
Permission is also given the United
States to fortify the line and the ter
minals, and it may police it with
troops. That portion of the treaty
dealing with the fortifcation of the
terminals is rather general, but suffi'
ciently explicit not to be misunder'
stood. The cities of Panama and Co
Ion retain their municipal autonomy
under the republic Of Panama so long
as they maintain public order and
sanitary conditions to the satisfaction
of the United States, according to the
treaty, right to enforce strict compliY
ance with the wishes of this govern,

States can even use force to compel
obedience to its rules as to public or,

CoIombans Do Not Approve of the

PlSltion uncle Sam Has AIKEN Re-
garding Panama-WilIing to Fight
to Maintain Their Dignity.
New York, Nov 19.-OfficiaI reply
was made today, says The Herald ;
BogoLa correspondent under date of
Nov. 13, to the note presented by
United States Minister Beapre inform
ing the Colombian government that
Washington had entered into official
relations with the Republic of Pana-
ma. The reply was framed by Sen
ator Carlos Ricos, minister of foreign
affairs, who vigorously defends his
government and threatens to march
an army on Panama unless the United
States Immediately recedes from it's
position.
That the COlOmbians are willing to
fight to maintain their dignity and, if
possible, re-take Panama, is shown by
the strong support offered the gov
ernment and the popular approval OF
Minister Ricos' stand
THE Colombian government pro-
tests theoretically at the attitude TAX
en- by the United States. By the
recognition of Panama and the warn
ing that the United States will not al
low Colombia to put down the rebel
lin the heretofore friendly relations
existing between the two governments
have arrived at such a critical stage
that it is absolutely impossible to con-
tinue diplomatic relations unless the
Washington government should imme-
diately give notice that it has no in
tentiOn to prevent Colombia from TAX
ing the isthmus or to extend any rec
ognition to the belligerents."
The note concludes by stating that
"a prompt reply is awaited from Wash
ington as the Colombian army is read
to march on Panama at once"
Adding to the indignation of the peo-
pie and stirring them in their prep
arations for war is a dispatch al
legged to have been received today say
ing Germany 'Disapproves of the
course taken by the United States and
censures her for interference at Pan
anna"
Gneral Perdimo has been appointed
commander-in-chief of the Colombian

formed officer in Bogota on affairs on

It is announced that the French col
ony at Bogota has extended sympathy
to the government and offered to con-
tribute $500,000 for it's support.

TURKS OPEN WAR
ON BUL0ARlANS

Sofia, Bulgaria. Oct. 5.-Serious news
has been received here from the from
tier of fighting between the Turkish
and Bulgarian troops at Demir-kapia
both sides sustaining losses
In official quarters all knowledge OF
the affair is denied, but the circumstan,
tial details given seem to indicate thai
there is some foudation for the account
OF the conflict.
According to one report the Turks
attacked the Bulgarian frontier post
Another version says that the Turks
pursued a number of refugees across
the frontier.
II is asserted that the Turks have
frequently attempted to provoke hostl-
tiles, firing into Bulgarian territory
and crossing the frontier to steal
horses and sheep. The war office here
is working at high pressure, and 24,Ool
recruits will be called three months be-
fore the usual time. Prince Ferdinand
has sanctioned numerous other meas
Mres of a warlike nature. All the cav
airy, with the exception of single
regiment, which is stationed at Sofia
has been sent into the frontier dis
tricts, where are strong forces OF artll-
lery, Vigorous efforts are being made
to prevent bands from crossing into
Turkish territory Two bands which
were sent back have reached Sofia
since yesterday.
Dispatches from the frontier re-
ceived at the revolutionary headquar-
tiers report that the refugees in the
mountains are In terrible condition
through their pursuit by the Turks and
cold and hunger. Many are dying.

WASTED POSTAGE STAMPS.
Net Uncle Sam More Than a Million
Dollars Year.

An experienced clerk in branch
postoffice up town says that Uncle
Sam is in pocket every year more
than $l,O0O000 by purchases of post
age stamps which never are used.
How many stamps" he says, do
you lose through carrying them care
lessly in your pockets and fishing them
out again, glued together and useless
How many do you put in a corner OF
your pocketbook, finding them again
months later looking like anything but
postage stamps? OF course, nobody
ever thinks of sending such stamps in
for redemption. Suppose the waste |
am speaking of averaged 20 cents an
nually for each business man. The to-
tai would be enormous.
Hot weather was a great revenue
maker for the government before the
little oiled books came in; but many
persons lose their books, and the aver
age Is about the same. Some persons
actually come back to the stamp win
dow and ask II lost stamp books can
be traced, like bank books. Another
way in which Uncle Sam gains is
through tradesmen sending out letters
inclosing stamped addressed envelopes
for replies which in the majority of
cases are never used.
Some business houses collect such
envelopes and redeem them, but few
take the trouble to do this. Think of
the thousands of return postal cards.
too, that are never used. Lots of per-
sons are careless of putting stamps on
letters or papers. and they fall off.
Then the matter is held up for double
postage on the other end of the line.
