Wichita Welcomed II To Wash Away
The Filth Left by The Flood.

Wichita, Kan, July 16.-The streets
of Wichita got a good washing by one
of the most severe rain and thunder
storms of the month. In less than an
hour the precipitation amounted TO
one and a half inches, according 10
the government weather bureau. Ac'
companying the rain was a heavy
hailstorm of twenty minutes dura-
ton. 1t was the first rain since the
floods of last week, and 1t was not
unwelcome, as it washed much OF
the filth into the sewers.
The records of the local weather
bureau show that the precipitation for
this month, prior to this rain, amount
ed to SGT inches, by far the most for
any July in the sixteen years the
records have been kept. The average
for July is 1921 inches, or just what
fell in the storm of last Friday

Panama, July 1S.-No settlement
has been reached of the questions
pending between the republic of Pan.
anna and the officials of the canal
zone. The. Panama government is
firm in the belief that the only cor
rect Interpretation of the canal treaty
is that until the canal shall be con-
structed all parts of the isthmus are
under the direct jurisdiction of Pan
ANA.
The fact that the relations be-
tween the Panama government and
Major General Davis, governor OF
the canal zone, are cordial, leads the
people of the republic to hope that the
questions will be satisfactory settled.
One of the results Of the situation
arising out of the DEGREES issued by
Governor Davis establishing a Gus
tom house in the canal zone and the
order compelling all steamers depart
ing from La Boca to secure clearance
papers from the United States au-
thorities, is the union of all political
parties toward q common end. The

BELIEVES u. S. MEANS FAIR

last act of the assembly by adjourn
ing was to unanimously approve a
proposition that the congressman
should go to President Amador and
offer their services in aiding the gov
eminent to defend the rights of the

moved by this act, which proved that
all political parties are with the soy
eminent in It's attitude. In address
ing the congressman he said he had
absolute faith in the government of
the United States, whose generous
and noble conduct toward the South
American republics left no doubt that
the canal treaty would be correctly
interpreted.

There will be five judicial districts
