Canal Treaty In Effect.

WAsHINGTON, Feb. 26.-President
Roosevelt today signed the proclama a.
ton putting into effect the treaty with
Pan anna regarding the isthmi an canal.
AS soon as the proclam alton was
signed it was returned to the state de-
partment, where the exchange of rati.
fcations had taken place between
Secretary of State Hay and Minister
Bunau.V arilla of Panama.
The cabinet was in session when the
procl am alton reached the White house
from the state department. Secretary
Loeb took the document to the pre.i-
dent and he signed it immed iately.
The president may not send to the sem
ate his appointments on the isthmian
canal commission before the first of
next week. He has been informed by
telegraph that Benjamin NJ. Harrod
Of New Orleans has mailed to him
statement regarding the charges pre-
ferred against Mr.. Harrod.

NEW YORK, Feb. 25.-Ratification
of the Panama canal treaty resulted
in the immediate recall of the United
States warships and about one.half of
the marines from the isthmus, says a
Herald dispatch from Panama.. Let
ters just received from Colombia de-
clare that the Colombians are ready
to fight as soon as the news is re-.
ceived tn at the treaty is ratified. One
general is quoted as saying that if the
government does not declare war, the
troops on the border will invade Pan
anna anyhow.
The last inform alton from the coast
is that another regiment has been sent
from Cartagena to the frontier. Half
OF the 1000 soldiers recently sent to
Titumati have been removed 25 miles
further up the Darien coast toward
Panama. If the Colombians carry
out the threat to attack they cannot
reach the railroad as fast as vessels
can be sent from the United States af.
ter news of the advance arrives.

Convicted Of Postal Frauds.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-"Guilty as

by the jury in the postoftice conspiracy
trial shortly after O'Clock tonight.
stating at the same time this was the
verdict as to all four defendants, Au-
gust W. Machen, late general super.
intendent Of the rural free delivery
division: George E. Lorenz, of Toledo:
Samuel A. Croft and Diller B. Croft.
of " Washington.
During the time the jury was out,
the four defendants had paced up and
down the hallway outside the court
room and had given expressions to
the belief that each hour the iury
spent in discussing the case brought
them nearer to acquittal. There was
general astonishment that the Jury
had included in the conviction Samuel
A. Croft, Washington policem an
and Inventor of the Croft fastener, as
to whom Holmes Conrad, specia al
counsel for the government, yesterday
Informed the jury that he did not ex-

The Anti-Injunction Bill.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-The Gros-
venor "Anti-Injunction' or "Anti-
Conspiracy bill, the passage of
which is being vigorously urged by
the labor organizations of the country
and opposed with equal vigor by the
employers organizations, came up for
public hearing today before the house
committee on judiciary. The bill ex-
empts labor unions from prosecution
under the antitrust bill and is in.
tended to prevent the issuing of in.
functions against the unions. It has
passed the house of representatives
three times, in each case meeting with
defeat in the senate. The present
hearings before the judiciary CON-
mittee will continue several days and
both the supporters and opponents of
the measure will be given opportunity
to state their views.

Labor Troubles In Colorado.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 26.-"Colorado Q
can literally be called BLEEDING Colo
rado, owing to what has taken place
there in the last ten years." said J.
c. Craig, president of the Citizens
alliance of Denver, in an address to-
day before the house judiciary com.
mittee, in opposition to the conspiracy
bill. Mr.. Craig was the first speaker
at today's hearing. He devoted his
time to discussion of labor troubles
of the state.
He recoun:ed the various clashes
between the unions and the mine oper.
atOrs, which he declared were attend
ed by violence and abuses on the part
of the miners of such nature tn at
the newspapers of the state were un-
able to publish the assaults.
The Citizens alliance was formed
to take action against such assaults
and the association grew to men,
bership of $4,000. Injunctions were
then obtained, land then, and only
then,' said Mr.. Craig, ''were we able
to proceed with operating mines with.
out daily fear of mine horrors brought
about by diabolical scheming against
the lives of men who worked against
the wishes of the union''

German Baron Killed BY Bear.

PORT ANGELES, WASH, Feb. 25.-
Word has been received from Ranger
c. Bovine of Solduck, Hot Springs,
that the body of Baron Martin Won
Schlosser was found on the range
south OF the hot springs op Monday
morning, near the dead body of a
bear. The baron was undoubtedly
killed by the bear. He started in the
morning on hunt. On his body was
found receipts from banks in Portl and.
Ore, Chicago and New York for more
than 100000. A letter found on the
body directed that if anything hap.
pened to him Judge Hatch should ad-
minister his affairs. Won Schlosser
was an officer in the German army
and baron of that empire. He has
been resident of this city for several
years, and recently took out natur-
alization papers.

Montana Pugiiist Makes Big Hit,

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 27.-Jack Mum
roe, the Butte, Mont, miner, who won
fame in one night by knocking down
Champion Jim Jetfries, outfought Tom
Sharkey in their six round bout at the
Second Regiment armory in this city
tonight. Munroe stepped from the
ring without mark, while both of
Sharkey's eyes were badly swollen
from vicious right and left swings of
the Butte miner. Tn only one round, i,
the first, did Sharkey have any ad-
vantage of Munroe.
After this, the battle was almost
wholly In Monroe's favor. When
Munroe began to find the sailors
stomach, Sharkey became wild, and
nearly all OF his leads went around
Munroc's neck. In the fifth round
Munroe had his antagonist in trouble
and again in the sixth round Sharkey
was in great distress. The blows
which Munroe landed on Sharkey's
stomach went straight from the shoul.
der, and were hard enough to have
knocked out almost any fighter. The
general opinion seems to be that JEFF.
fries will now be called upon to de.
tend the championship against Mum
roe.

Korea viii Assist Japan,

SEOUL, Feb. 26.--Thc Korean gov
ernment has decided to order the
Korean troops to join the apanese in
the field. The port of Wiju was open.
ed to foreign trade last night. The
limitations TO be placed on trade and
other incidental matters will be dis
cussed later. This action necessitates
harbor, so Yongh hampho has been
decided upon.
PARIS, Feb. 26.-The French for
eign Office categorically denies the re-
port published in a London paper
that Korea having become the ally of
Japan under the Japanese-Korean
treaty, France is therebyirequested to
become an active ally of Russia. The
officials say the situation does not
warrant such conclusion and add
that the treaty does not make the
slightest change ia the position of
France.
