Countries on Canal zone--cansl
Ports Are Free.

Panama.-The differences between
the United States and Panama which
made necessary the visit of Secretary
of War Taft to the isthmus, have
been settled by the issuance Of an
order, signed by Secretary
Taft for President Roosevelt and as
scented to in letter by President
Amador of Panama.
The order provides that no trade
for the canal zone or the republic Of
Panama can enter the ports estab-
lished by the United States at either
end of the canal, supplies for the con-
struction of the canal and articles in
transit being excepted. This turns the
customs receipts of these ports over
to the government of Panama.
Panama agrees to reduce her tariff
from IL per cent ad vaiorem to 10
per cent. This reduction applies to
all goods except wines, liquors, alcohol
and opium. Panama also agrees to re-
duce her consular fees and port
charges to 60 per cent of the rates at
present charged. Absolute free trade
is to apply between the canal zone and
the republic of Panama. Vessels en-
tering the canal ports are granted
free entry to the ports of Colon and
Panama. and vessels entering the lat
ter ports are extended the same privi-
leges in the canal ports.
Complete jurisdiction is granted the
United States in the harbors of Colon
and Panama as to sanitation and quar-
antine regulations.
Panama reduces her rate of postage
to 2 cents, and is to furnish all stamps
in the public and in the canal zone.
The zone authorities are to purchase
stamps from Panama at 40 per cent
Of their face value.
The order OF Secretary Taft is to
be ineffective unless Panama shall put
into effect the gold standard, accord
ing to the currency agreement of
June 20, 1904. 1t also makes a stipu-
