ed the conductor to Secretary Taft,
that an amusing incident occurred
on President Harrlson's first trip to
California. President Harrison was
standing on the observation platform
OF his special train viewing the
scenery and ready for a brief address
to the people Mt every town where
the train stopped. The President
wore a pair of white kid gloves. At
the time the incident happened he
was holding one OF the gloves loosely
in his hand. The train struck a
sharp curve, and in grabbing the rail-.
ing 20 steady himself the President
allowed the glove to slip from his
grasp and fall to the ground between
the rails. Quick as a flash he tore
the other glove from his hand and
threw 1t after the first one.

WASHING
TONLETTER

CFrom Our Regular Correspondent
WASHINGTON. D. C.. July ga
Though the President and some of the
Cabinet are out Of town. there is stiil
considerable political talk in the air
and the chief subject is Of tariff re-
vision at the coming session. It might
just as well be understood now that
there probably will not be any talk
even Of tarif revision at the coming
session. The President has been In
duced to put on the calling of the ex-
ira session from date to date till the
probabilities are that 1t will be so
close to the regular session that there
will be no chance for even a tariff
debate, let alone action. There is the
Panama canal question that will un.
doubtedly take up a good deal of
time and with Secretary Taft's trip to
the Philippines and railroad rate leg.
islation there probably will not be
anything but talk, and the tariff re-
vision will be postponed as the ma
jority Of the two houses wish. There
will have to be some legislation to
deal with the growing deficit, and that
probably will come in the form Of a
stamp tax similar to. II not identical
with the fee or an increase Of the in
ternal revenue taxes. but there hardly
will be any tinkering with the tariff
at the extra session because there
will not be time and at the regular
session there will be too much else
to do. There is a distinction for you.
Speaking Of the Panama canal,
Messrs. Shonts and Stevens have
started for their first look at the prob.
lem on the ground. They both ex.
press themselves as optimistic. There
is no other tone for them to take.
They make the rather curious com.
ment that the most of the men on the
lsthmus are insists who complain that
they have nothing to do but work,
and in the next breath Mr.. Shonts
says that they intend to establish a
chain of club houses across the 18th.
mus and put in various forms of en-.
tertainment for the benefit Of the ex.
lies. 1t will be somewhat interesting
to hear the interviews with these two
gentlemen on their return from Pan
anna. Neither of them would talk
much about Chinese labor, but the
government is about to open bids on
the importation OF coolies. This prob
ably will be as a necessary step as
the Chinaman is about the only hui.
man being who can stand work in the
climate Of the Isthmus. But there will
be a problem to deal with after the
government Is through with these la.
borers. 1t is not far from the 18th.
mus to Mexico, and while 1t is a long
walk from one end of Mexico to the
other, still. Cinnamon will put up with
worse than that for the sake of get.
ting into the United States. The Dor.
der States Of Texas. Arizona, New
Mexico and California are already the
happy hunting grounds OF the Chinese
runner, and IL several thousand Of the
laborers who survive the climate Of
the Isthmus do not find their way into
the United States by way OF the old
