New York, Dec 16.-The conditions
which resulted in the recent establish
ment of the republic of Panama were
discussed last night at the banquet of
the Quill Club by Francis b. Loomis,
minister to Portugal. and NJ. Philippe

MIR. Loomis said:
I'VE have not desired to annex Pan

President simply executed the will of
the American people. with a due re-
gard to international law and rights.
He was instructed by Congress to Sc
cure canal route on the Isthmus of
Panama if possible. He waited until
the adjournment of the Colombian
Congress and gave the government of
that country every opportunity to rati-
fy the treaty or to propose some proper
method looking to the ratification OF a
new treaty; and the Colombian Con
gress, in utter bad faith, rejected the
treaty and adjourned.

fore the President could be reasonably

Senator Morgan of Alabama, cham
pion of the Nicaragua route. made a
fierce assault on the Panama treaty
and in that connection again freely
criticised what he denOminated pres
idential usurpation." He declared that
the United States is becoming affected
to the core with covetousness, and he
said the country seemed to be quiver-
ing with doubt as to whether it should
go over entirely or pursue the better
course followed by our national faith
ers. So far as he was concerned he
would not be so mean as to yield to
a temptation simply to advance the
commercial interests of his state. He
asserted that the United States would
do as it might please with the island
of Cuba, and added: She is now fet-
tered to the decks of Our warships as
firmly as Professor Langley's airship
was ever attached to his house boat"
He spoke of the negotiation Of the
Panama canal treaty as a grotesque
act, and declared that Panama had no
more right to appoint minister to
the United States than that country
had to consecrate a saint. He came"

VERY LARGE SUMS
PAID FOR BEETS

Denver, Dec ia Greeley dispatch
says that yesterday was payday at the
Greeley sugar factory and Sl4o,ooO mas
been paid out to the beet growers Tor
their November shipments of beets.
When the beets which have been re
ceived at the factory since December
LIST have been paid for, the sugar COM
pany will have expended S25o,OVO FOR
the beet crop grown for the Greeley
factory. This represents 10000 tons OF
beets grown on 5000 acres and made
into 5000 tons, or 10000 bags, or H.
600 600 pounds of sugar. Fifty thous-
sand bags OF sugar are now stored in
the Greeley company's warehouses ana
10000 more sacks will be added before
the season closes in January.
The machinery at the factory has
worked without a hitch this year. and
scarcely a day has passed that the fac
tory has not turned out its full capacity
of sugar, which is 10000 tons every
twenty-four hours.
The crop for the factory for the com
ing year will be increased 1000 acres,
but as the factory will begin slicing
at least three weeks earlier than in pre-
yious years, the added tonnage will be
easily cared for. The beet crop has
proven a satisfactory one to handle, as
there are no fluctuations in the beet
market. the grower knowing at the be-
ginning of the season the price per ton
which his crop will bring and also be
g.ausc of the hardy nature of the beet
to withstand drought. severe frost and
adverse climatic conditions. Among
the Greeley growers receiving good

STATIsTICIANS FIGURE
ON SURVIVAL OF VETERANS

1t will interest old soldiers to know
that many years ago the statisticians
of the pension Office made careful
calcula tions to show the number of
survivors of the war of the rebellion
for series of years. They used as
the basis of the calculation the NOR
tally tables of the insurance com
panies. but were far out of the way.
The old soldiers are passing away
more rapidly than was expected. Ac-
cording TO the estimate the total
number of survivors in 1902 should
have been 93O,9SO. while the pension
rolls show only 725.1OO. To the latter
number should he added > or , per
cent To cover those who have never
applied for pensions.
According to the calculations the
last survivor of the civil war should
pass away in 1945. but if he lives as
long as Hiram Conk, the survivor of
the war of 1912. he will be still draw
ing pension for several years after.
