THREE PLANS BROACHED
 FOR PANAMA CANAL
Eortific ations Will Not Be Considered Until Type of Canal Is Decided
 Upon.

Washington, November 15.-The full board of consulting engineers of the Pan- anna canal held an all-day session today and continued to work upon the different types of canal Only rumors reach per sons outside of the committee room. It was indicated today that several reports might be made, one favoring sea-level canal. another for a lock canal at 6O-foot level and still another for lock canal at a 30 or 40-foot level. There seems to be a general impression that a large number of engineers at present favor a sea-level canal, but an intimation has been made that there might be a compromise upon low level lock canal, which would be very satisfactory to the canal commission and the administra- tion
 The officers who accompanied Secretary Taft to Panama to investigate the mat ter of Notifications for the canal have not yet made report and will not until a type of canal is determined. Upon the type of canal will depend the location of the mouths of canal and no definite plan for fortification will be feasible until the places where the protection will be needed can be definitely known.

TAKE 100000 BALES
 OFF THE MARKET
President Jordan Outlines Plan to Get the Farmers to Sign a
 Pledge.

New Orleans. November 15--Folowins the arrival of President Harvie Jordan, the Southern Cotton Growers association today perfected plans for the taking off the market of three million bales of cot- ton by means of series of pledges, which the farmers will sign themselves, stating their name and address and the amount of cotton they will thus hold.
 The cotton held will not be sold for less than 10 cents a pound representa- tive of the association is to be sent into every one of the SIT cotton producing counties of the cotton belt at once. When the pledges are signed they will be sent to the central office of the association at Atlanta. President Jordan says that half of the crop has already been sold at an average of 10 cents and the spnners must have all the remainder. He believes that 15 cents for the remainder is a fan price and it will only average the spin ners 121a cents while they have based all .reir calculations on IA cent cotton.

HIS MESSAGE TOPICS

Extraordinary Document Longest and
Most Remarkable Written by Him
He Touches Upon Great Number.
Of Toplcs-Federal Supervision Of

Washington, d. c., Nov. 15.-The

Ak MAY FALL UPON GAR.
Grand Ducal Party ls Said to Be Open
ly Discussing His Overthrow.

St. Petersburg. Nov. 14.-Abdica-
ton OF removal of the czar. openly
talked OF in high circles. divides at
tention with another sensation.
The dreaded Intervention of Ger
many in the Russian crisis is believed
to have come. The kaiser, when he
learned Of the Cronstadt riots, sent a
wireless message to the car Offering
to place the German northern squad
ron at his disposal. The car sent
back message of thanks. II has not
transpired whether the offer goes be-
yond safeguarding the sovereigns per-
son, but inasmuch as a Germrn war
ship has been stationed off Peterhof
for several days for this purpose 1t
is inferred that Emperor Williams
proposal has wider significance.
Little has been said publicly OF the
contemptuous i'll will of fashionable
regiments toward the sovereign since
the peace of Portsmouth was signed.
It was soon evident the army would
/ seek scapegoat and 1t is now becom-
ing manifest that it will be the czar
himself. This found its loudest express
sion over the expulsion of Grand Duke
Cyril from the navy. The decree order
ing his expulsion evoked such out
bursts of indignation in both navy and
army as would have led to the malcon-
tents being court martialed and shot
IL they had been servants of the kiser.
Grand Duke Vladimir took the side of
his son energetically and promptly re-
signed. Now Vladimir, whatever his
character, has the support of the i'm
perial guards brigade, which is espe-
cially charged with the protection of
the emperors person.
The high world here began to ridi-
Guile the sovereign and speak con-
temptuously of his character. From
that they began to say there was no
possible future for him as a Russian
sovereign.
The next stage now has been reach
ed and the question of the czars sue
cessor is being discussed with amazing
holiness. Names constantly heard in
military circles for the regency or the
head of the timid monarchy are Grand
Dukes Nicholas Nicolovich and Con-
stantine Constantinovich Both are
grandsons of Nicholas l. Witte and
his supporters are still almost helpless,
but their collapse is by no means
certain.
