The latest fad in operations has been

''We are studying American railway

last night. ''I am making an extensive

TENS of the great American roads, and
in year expect to return to Japan
with my report. This is my second

/ am thoroughly conversant with
American methods
Mr.. KinoShita is a bright looking
young man of about thirty years Of
age, a graduate of the University of
Tokyo, and a thorough student of the
great railroad problems that confront
his country. He had personal charge
of transporting large numbers of the
mikado's troops to the front, and found
the task hard one. 1t was after get

that his government decided that their

SEEK MODIFICATION
Of CANAL TREATY
Panaman Minister Discusses
the Grievances of His
Little Country

WASHINGTON, d. G., Oct. 22.-
Modification of the Hay-Bunau- Varfl-
Ia canal treaty in several important
respects, and the negotiation between
the Washington and Panaman govern
ments of supplementary commercial
treaty, granting to Panama important
concessions, is what the Panamans hope
to obtain as a result of Secretary
Tafts mission to the isthmus, accord
ing to a statement made tonight by
Senor Obaldia, Panaman minister at
Washington
widespread enthusiasm has been
aroused on the isthmus,s said the min
lister. .by the, publication of President
Roosevelt's letter to Secretary Taft.
President Amador has cabled me that
he has proclaimed this letter through
out the isthnus and that the tide Of
grateful feeling has already turned in
favor of the United States Prepara-
tions have already been begun for a
reception to the Taft mission.
In the action of the president in
accrediting to the Pananan govern
ment SO distinguished an envoy as
Secretary Taft, whom the isthmians
regard as eminently fair, the Panaman
government sees hope of righting a
number of wrongs under which it is
now suffering There are questions of
vital importance to the isthmus which
have not yet been settled to the salts
faction of the government. In the
forefront of these are three problems
which Secretary Taft will be asked to
solve: The postal regulations, the
question of customs duties and the
question of jurisdiction of the terminal
cities of Panama and Colon. The Colon
government decliI IS to accept the in
depreciation placed on the treaty by
Mr.. Bunau- VarilIa, which takes away
all the land in those cities not now
actually covered by the residences.
Panama and Colon Will prosper rapidly
after the canal work has started. They
will need considerable territory over
which to expand. We are confident
that Secretary Taft will be quick to
see the justice of our contentious.
AS for the postal question, post
age stamp in Panama costs cents.
When Governor General Davis sold
stamps at cents each it is not sur
prising that the people bought stamps
of him rather than of the Panama au-
thorities.
"Then there is the troublesome ques-
ton of customs regulation between the
government of Panama and the canal
zone. We are confident that we shall
arrange these difficulties with Score
tary Taft with satisfaction to our
selves and to the United States. am
of the opinion that a new commercial
treaty will be the most satisfactory
solution"

TRAGEDY PRESENTS
A BIT OF MYSTERY

PEORIA, H.. Oct. 22-Did some un-
known person infiict the injuries on the
person of Mrs. Nellie Thamosson, now
lying dead at Lacon? The evidence at
the coroner's inquest showed that she
walked to the train here with slight as
sistance, and that when she arrived at
Lacon she summoned a hack and made
her way to the home of her mother, sew
eral blocks away, without assistance. She
did not summon a physician until sixteen
hours later.
If the injuries inflicted by Young Hig-
gins were of the fatal and horrible ma
ture charged, his friends ask how. it was
possible for the woman to have done all
this.
