Witte May Not Go.
st. Petersburg, July 16.-M. White,
after an audience with the emperor at
Peterhof, returned last evening to St.
Petersburg and drove directly to the
foreign Office, where he was closeted
for three hours with Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff.
A sensational report was current
early this morning that NJ White
might not go to Washington after all.
According to- the story, his audience
with the emperor was anything but
smooth, his majesty resenting M.
Whites plain spoken ideas and indi-
eating that under the circumstances
he would prefer that Baron Rosen
should act as chief plenipotentiary.
The emperor is even said to have
minated that Count Lamsdorff ex-
nouncing to the Washington govern
ment that M. Witte would occupy
the first position.
M. White is said to have left the en-
peror in an ugly frame of mind and to
have frankly informed Count Lams-
dorff that it would be impossible for
him to undertake the mission. 1t was
only by the greatest effort, the story
goes, that the foreign minister sue
ceeded in persuadipg him not to re-
fuse fatty, and the question as to
whether he will go to Washington is
said to be still open.
May Be Untrue.
Although the Associated Press
heard this story from high person
age, its informant was not prepared
to vouch for it. and there is no con
frmation of it from other quarters up
to this hour. 1t is, therefore, sent
under great reserve, as it may prove
to be an invention.
The greatest element in the
strength of NJ. Whites position after
negotiations shall have been begun is
the fact that he is in thorough accord
with Count Lamsdorff, the foreign
minister, who can be depended upon
to support his recommendations be
fore the emperor against all contrary
influences.

CHAIRMAN sHCNTs AND THE
CHIEF ENGINEER GUESTS A?
OYSTER BAY.

Oyster Bay, July 16. = Chairman
Canal commission and John F. Ste
Vens, chief engineer, We're guests of
the president at Sycamore Hill yes
terday. 1t was the first opportunity
the president has had 10 discuss canal
matters with MI Stevens. and they
went over the subject pretty thor
oughly. AS both Mr.. Shonts and Mr.
Stevens expect to sail for Panama on
July 20, the president desired to con-
suit with them.
1t is not unlikely that Mr.. Stevens
will be made in the near future a.
member of the executive committee
or the Panama canal commission, a
position occupied by his predecessor,
Mr.. Wallace
Will Dig the Canal.
1t can be said that Mr. Stevens has
been given practically a free hand to
do construction work Of the canal He
has his own ideas about the methods
to be pursued, and will not be inter
fered with in the work of his depart
Is
and to that great undertaking he will
devote all his energy and ability, leav~
ing the executive and administrative
details to be worked out by Chairman
Shonts, Gov. Magoon and the COM
mission.
After the conference with the pres
ident, Chairman Shonts talked frank
ly about the work of the commission
and about canal conditions.
Our talk with the president said
he, was of a general character about
canal matters. The president desired
to see Mr.. Stevens before we left for
the isthmus, and to discuss with both
of us the progress of the work. Just,
now we have about $4,000 men at
work on the canal. That is about as
many as we could employ under the
existing conditions.
Task for Stevens.
1--WE have our executive staff thor
oughly organized now, but the organ
iZation has not been completed on the
isthmus. That is part of the work
Mr.. Stevens will have to do. His en-
cheering staff must be organized and
its work mapped out.
No continued Chairman Shonts
in response to an inquiry, 1.-The sani-
tary conditions on the isthmus are
not so bad as they have been reported
to be. A lot of people have become
frightened by the yellow fever, but it
is not SO bad as might be expected. In
fact the representations from the 18TH
mus regarding health conditions have
been grossly exaggerated
my belief is continued Chairman
Shonts, that the actual digging of
the canal will have to be done by la
borers Injured to the tropical climate
That labor we shall be able to get
