The conference broke up at mid

what had been talked about replied:
"Oh. lot of everything The pres

CANAL IN SIGHT.
Negotiations With Panama Will
Start OFF BriskIy.
Quiet at Panama, but the CoIombians
Are Somewhat Agitated.
Have an Idea That They Are Victims
of Some Trick.

Washington, Nov. 12-Late this af-
ternoon, the navy department received
the following cablegram from Rear Ad-
miral Glass, commanding the naval
forces on the isthmus:
"Panama.-Evcrythi is quiet at
Panama. No sign of any dissatisfac-
ton. 1t is reported that there are few
Colombian troops at Buena Ventura.
The Colombian gunboat Bogota sailed
from Buena Ventura with troops
aboard, but put back to port again.
British steamers Manavi and Quito
were unmolested."
The British steamers referred to are
understood to be the two vessels which
for short time were detained by the
Colombian government at Buena Ven
tura with view to their use as trans
ports for carrying troops to the 18TH
mus, but which subsequently were re-
leased
Another cablegram is in the shape
of notice from Acting Consul General
Ehrman at Panama, that Philippe
Bunau-V Vanilla, the Panama minister to
Washington, is the person charged by
his government with power to nego-
ment of the United States, and that
Messrs. Boyd and Amador, the COM
missioners who sailed two days ago
for Washington, were charged with
other missions and would only act in
an advisory capacity as to the treaty.
M. Bunau-Varilla is disposed to put
forth every effort to hasten the treaty
negotiations. He called to see Secre-
tary Hay, today, to make preparations
for his reception by the President. to-
morrow in his capacity as minister for
Panama. Just as soon as that has been
done he will ask to have the negotia-
tions formally opened and there is some
probability that the new treaty will be
ready for transmission to the Senate
before Christmas. e.
The new Panama constitution is not
expected to include the provision in
the Colombian constitution preventing
the alienation of territory, SO that the
state department hopes to disarm crit
icism on the score that it has not been
able to obtain an absolute title in fee
simple the canal tract. 1t also is ex-
pected that this tract will be nearly
double that proposed in the Hay-Her-
ran treaty, a precaution in interest of
the maintenance of order along the

CLAIMANTS MAY ACT.

Having failed to secure bids for the
Fire Claims bonds, the government now
tells the claimants just what they must
do if they hope to be able to secure full
liquidation of their claims. While the
work of probating the long list of
awards is going on. Secretary Carter
has given the opportunity for the
awardees to come up and subscribe for
bonds in the ratio of 245 per cent. of
the total of their claims.
This plan for the paying off of the
claims has been discussed at length and
the giving of this opportunity seems to
be the only way for the temper of the
Oriental claimants to be accurately
taken. There are many of these claim
ants who are now paying per cent. on
money borrowed on the strength of the
awards. They are baking at the dis
count of 2i8 per cent. which would be
apparent, If they sold the bonds at 90.
after taking them for one quarter of
their claims.
II there is no agreement on the part
OF the claimants to take the bonds the
matter again becomes one of waiting.

BOOTH SEEMS DISCOURAGED.

''The Godlessness of the world seems
to be daily increasing
Thus the venerable Gen. William
Booth. of the Salvation Army, spoke
recently in London, at great meeting
under the auspices of the organization
of which he is the head. 1t is indeed a
sad commentary upon his own life
work. that Gen. Booth, after hard
and aggressive fight against the forces
of wickedness in all lands, his soldiers
carrying the blood red banner in every
cline, must admit that his plan of cam
paign has not been productive of mate
rial good.
This is a personal view, however. and
must not be permitted to cast shadow
over the hopes of any stalwart and ag-
gressive soldier in the cause of the
right. Certainly there are more indica-
tions of good thinking. right speaking
and proper living in the world today
Notwithstanding the view of one
preacher. Perhaps Gen. Booth looks at
the rest of the world through glasses
which are tinged with cobalt. Maybe
the world is not what he would wish it,
and it is just as safe to say that there
are millions of others who would wish
it different too, but nevertheless the
percentage of good seems to be increas-
ing rather than decreasing and the
army has had much to do with the good
results. Every agency for good needs
encouragement, and Gen. Booth should
know that a thoughtful commander will
not discourage his rank and file with
dire predictions. Perhaps, however, he
had just closed an inspection of some
thoroughly debased section and had not
recovered from the shock of touching
elbows with depravity. Pessimists may
take his utterance. however, and turn
it against him, for his is one of the new
est and most radical of the methods of
fighting the evil influences of the world.

A GREAT MASS MEETING.

A great mass meeting was held al
the Japanese theater, at D. m. z O'Clock
the night Of 18th, April, 1903. There
was 800 Japanese, composed of all diff
ferent business men, Hilo, Hawaii An
opposition motion against the white
mechanics, they are nearly all americ-
anized Portuguese, We believe. They
don't know anything that what power
of the right Japanese had, at the time
Hawaii annexed to America and still
the power OF Japanese right is pro-
ceeding as strong ever, that is said, at
the time of Hawaii annexed to
America, Mr.. T, Hoshi Japanese AM
bassador's proposition is this: In case,
IL America should be annexed to Ha-
wall and in future there should be no
disturbance of the power of Japanese
right which they already gained and
the promises was confirmed, then an
annexation existed between Hawaii
and America, isn't fact indeed so firm
ly so, it is funny that Bill of Hack
license having had passed the House
lately and ] don't know wonder is there
Governor Dole's space for any probable
remarks to sign on it. We don't think
even we, have common sense, he will
never sign on the Bill, because he
know pretty well what condition, or
what power of right Japanese had, at
the time of annexation and that is a
reason simply as far as both concern
ed. Mostly Japanese laborers in Ha-
waiian Island they have no general
education except to fit for the field,
but still they know well what is the
National dishonour or dignity of coun-
try. If we talk larger and in a mo-
ment there would certain catechisn
between japan and America rush an
and in consequence would, no doubt,
the question of damage partake on as
against the Treaty. For instance, we
are expressing a few more lines that
how is Hawaii circulating on the bust
ness every day. May be probable seen
some kind changes on Hawaiian ISL
and, if there would great strike raise
and SO force
If SO, may be seen further improve
ment better than we have today and
we held another meeting on the 14th
April, at the same place and made the
regulation of Japanese organized in

their distinguished guests, entered into
the spirit OF the play and gave a most
artistic representation of the great war
drama
