M'KINLEY STATUE UNVEILED.
First Memorial to Late President In
Ohio.

Toledo, Ohio, Sept. 16.-Toledo was
en- fete Monday over the unwilling of
the Mckinley statue, the first memo
rial to the late president erected in
Ohio. After a naval parade on the
river, which included the United
States gunboat Michigan and the train
ing ships Yantic and Hawk, and a pro-
cession led by battalion of United
States infantry, the statue, which
stands fronting the courthouse, was
unveiled by Miss Dorothy Bonner.
Colonel ]. c. Bonner, president of the
memorial association, in a brief ad-
dress, presented the monument to the
county and Henry Conrad, president
of the board of county commissioners,
accepted the trust for the county Sen
ator M. A. Hanna was then introduced
as honorary president Of the day, and

CONGRESS IN. NOVEMBER.
Roosevelt Abandons the Plan of Octo.
Der Session.

Der Session.
Oyster Bay.-After mature consid
Grafton and consultation in person and
by mail with members Of both the
senate and house of representatives,
president Roosevelt has abandoned
suggestion that congress be called in
extraordinary session in October. The
extraordinary session which he an
nounced many months ago would be
held this fall will be called, accord
ing to present plans, to meet on No
vember 8.
Notwithstanding the fact that the
suggestion of an October session of
congress came from parties who adj
vocated it's adoption, the suggestion
was not received with favor by mem
bers of congress generally. The idea
of an October session was opposed
because it would oblige senators and
representatives to leave their states
and districts in the midst Of a cam.
paign, which to many Of them and to
their party was of vital importance.
No party agreement has as yet been
reached as to the character of the
financial legislation which will be en-
acted at the coming session. 1t is not
certain that an agreement can be
reached between the two branches OF
congress whereby any special legisla
ton can be enacted.

panama GOVERNMENT ROW
ANTESEcESSION GOVERNMENT
APPROVED BY SENATE,
1t Is Said the Newly Appointed Gov.
ernor of Panama, Who Is Favorable
to Canal Treaty, Is Crooked-Their
Congress Forgets Uncle Sam Wants
to Build Canal.

Bogota, Sept. ia proposal made
by Senior Perez Y. Sotos to ask the eX-
ecutive to appoint an antisecession
proved by the senate. Speakers in the
senate said that Senior Obaldia, who
was recently appointed governor of
fanama and who is favorable to a
canal treaty, was of doubtful integrity.
President Marroquin protested against
the action of the senate.
President Marroquin succeeded later
in calming the congressman. 1t ap-
pears he was able to give them salts
factory reasons for Governor Obaldia' s
appointment.
The Bogota government appears to
realize the imminent peril of the 18TH
mus of Panama declaring it's indepen-
dence. Senior Sesoux, representative
Of Panama constituency, delivered a
sensational speech in the house.
Among other things he said:
''In Panama the bishops, governors,
magistrates, military commanders and
their subordinates were and are for.
eign to the department. 1t seems that
the government, with surprising t.
nacity, wishes to exclude themselves
from all partizans in public affairs. AS
regards international dangers, all car
say is that if these dangers exist they
are due to the conduct of the nationa
government, which is in the direction
of reaction. If the Colombian govern
ment will not listen to the representa-
lions made with a view TO preventing
disaster, the responsibility will resi-
with it alone. Not native Of Pan
anna is obeying the reactionary laws.
The bill dealing with the settlement
of the foreign claims arising out Of the
revolution has met with no opposition
in the legislature. 1t seems that con
gress, after the recent political dis
cussions, has lost all energy and ha'
entirely forgotten Panama canal mat
tiers.

Stolen Barrel of Grain Alcohol

Match at the Barrel.

Norfolk, Va, Sept. lathe explo.
sion OF barrel of alcohol on the SUI
perstructure deck of the cruiser Olym-
pia. in dry dock at the Norfolk navy
yard, killed two men, severely injured
several others and set fire to the ship.
The master alarms of the vessel is
missing. The dead:
Corporal Yerkes, U. S. M. c.
White man, name unknown.
The damage was confined to the
dock of the vessel and embraced only
the canvas awnings and their fixtures.
The decks, however, were slightly in
jured.
Immediately after the explosion fire
alarms were sounded and the crew of
the navy yard department and de-
tachment of marines under Captain
Booth soon put the flames out.
The explosion, according to reports
from eye witnesses, followed the theft
of barrel of grain alcohol, containing
5S gallons, by a party of sailors. This
barrel, it is stated, was taken from
one of the stOrehOuses of the navy
yard and removed to the dock near
the Olympia. There it was opened.
Shipkeeper DAILY, on board the Olym-
pia, detected the odor of the spirits
and summoned the ships master-at-
arms. A search led to the discovery
of the barrel, which was taken aboard
the Olympia and placed on the hurri-
cane deck. With the exception of a
small quantity which had been split
the barrel was intact
In Flaming Liquor.
Yerkes and the unknown sailor went
to the barrel and one of them struck a
match. An explosion followed, and
both men were enveloped in the fam
ing liquor. They persisted before a
hand could be raised to save them.
The ship at once caught fire, and the
blaze for a while was stubborn, but
was finally extinguished. In the ex-
element the sailors concerned in the
anair escaped the parties sent out to
arrest them.
The ships company was assembled
and the ships master-at-arms failed
to respond to his name. 1t is not
known what became of him. One re-
port has it that he was not on the ship
, at the time of the explosion. No one
, was admitted to the navy yard and all
accounts of the explosion and attend
ing circumstances were secured from
outsiders. The injured are said to
, number four to seven.

Perhaps one of the queerest is the
