After the session OF the court had
been concluded. Col. John ", Hins-

New York. Repeated announce
nents in regard to the proximity Of
peace are confirmed, it is asserted, in
dispatch from Times correspondent
at st. Petersburg, by information
from what is called an unimpeachable
source, showing that Russia and Japan
nave selected President Roosevelt as
Mediator, that negotiations are already
n progress and that the suspension Of
aostilities shortly may be expected.
After detailing reports as to the neg
alive conditions of peace laid down by
Russia, and set forth recently in dis
patches to the Associated Press, the
Times correspondent adds: "The Sc
'ection Of President Roosevelt as me-
liator, which was due to japanese in
i5iative, is regarded here as evidence
IF excellent discrimination. The Jap
anese thereby secure firm friend, who
1t the same time will make it point
IF honor to bring the negotiations to
successful close, and who, therefore.
would not be likely to have accepted
the difficult post Of mediator if the
Japanese intended to present exorbi-
tant demands"

closed by an order Of the COURT COM
handing that the $135, 900 owing the
German Savings Institute by Ellis

others, should be paid out Of the funds
deposited in the safety deposit vaults

The money was borrowed from the
German Savings Institute on ten notes
signed by Ellis Wainwright and Chas.

and dollars of the $4,000 raised by
these notes were deposited in the safe
ty vaults Of the Mississippi Valley
Trust and the remaining $4,000 was
deposited in the vaults Of the Lincoln

ONE MEMBER
REAPPOINTED
OF THE ORIGINAL PANAMA
COMMISSIONERS.
RADICAL REORGANIZATION.
President Finds Way to Garry Out
His Ideas Notwithstanding Failure
Of Congress to Approve Them.
Three Members to Rule,

Washington-The president has
carried out his plans for the re-organ-
ization Of the isthmian canal commits
sion, as to personnel and business
methods, generally on the lines Of the
legislation he suggested to congress at
the last session which failed in the
crush Of business at the closing hours.
Within half an hour after the pres
ident's departure from Washington,
Secretary Taft, directly in charge Of
canal matters, made public the person
mel Of the new commission and the di-
vision Of the duties among them. Only
one member Of the old commission
was re-appointed. Mr.. Benz. NJ Har-
rod. Otherwise the commission is new
from top to bottom, for there is top,
bottom and considerable difference
between the functions and pay Of the
commissioners. Finding he was OBJ
liged to appoint seven commissioners
the president did so, but he carried
out his plan by making three Of them
practically the commission. The 9TH
er four though bearing the title of
commissioners not only receive much
lower compensation, but are assigned
much smaller fields Of activity. The
president also has carried out his
scheme of dividing up the work Of
canal building among the commission
ers SO that, nominally acting as body
on stated occasions, each individual
member would operate in a special
field. The head of the commission is
a trained railroad man, chosen for his
administrative abilities in the financial
and purchasing field the new COVER
nor Of the zone is a lawyer who also
has had to do with state affairs; the
engineer commissioner already is
known for his abilities in the execu-
ton OF the practical work of canal
cutting. The other members Of the
commission are placed there to comply
with the law regarding the number of
commissioners but they are men Of
high ability as hydraulic engineers.
Secretary Taft told them that they
were expected to show results and that
IS said to be the keynote for the pres
ident's action.
The personnel Of the new commits
sion is as follows:
Thomas P. Shonts, chairman; Chas.
b. Magoon, governor of the canal
zone; John F. Wallace, chief engineer;
Rear Admiral M. L. Endicott, U. S.
n; Brig. Gen. Peter c.. Haines, U. S.
A.; retired; Col Oswold M. Ernst,
corps of engineers U. S. A.; BENZ. H.
Harrod.

State Finances.

State Treasurer Miller now has on
hand in the vaults about $4,000 and
feels confident that he will have
enough funds on hand to last until
the fall tax collections commence to
pour in. During the month of May
he will receive from 100000 to $780,
600 on the collection Of privileges
taxes. The remarkable industrial
growth Of Mississippi is strikingly
shown by summary Of the new cor
porations chartered under the laws of
the state, which during the month Of
March alone amounted to the enor-
nous sum Of $2,179,000. Of this sum
$455,O00 is in capital stock of new
banking Institutions. March is usual
ly not a very good month for charters
but even with the average for this
month maintained throughout the year
1t will show an inves tment of capital
IN the state amounting to fully $25,-
100000, and it is certain to show to-
tai very much in excess Of that figure,
when the end of the year is reached.

NEW CANAL COMMISSION.
Theodore n. Shouts Chosen by tho
Pres. to Head Panama Board

Washington. President Roosevelt
has completed the personnel Of the
isthmian canal commission and the
names Of the members will be made
public Monday. So far as the facts
are concerned they could be made pub
lie now, but Secretary Taft will not
return to Washington until Sunday af-
ternoon apd it is desired that he shall
be consulted before the announcement
is made.
Theodore H. Shouts, president Of the
Toledo, st. Louis & Western railroad,
is to head the commission. He mott
led the president that he would accept
the offer made to him. Mr.. >Shonts
came to Washington and conferred
with William Nelson Cromwell, Sec
rotary Morton and COL Edwards, the
head of the insular affairs bureau Of
the war department.. He went to the
white house with Col. Edwards and
aad a. long conversation with the pres
ident who explained to him some Of the
difficulties under which the old COM
mission had worked.
Mr.. Shouts had little to say on
leaving the white house except to adj
nit that he would accept the tender
made to him. It is understood that
the president will fix his salary at
.arge figure to compensate him as far
as possible for the financial sacrifice
ne probably is making in leaving his
position.
Horace G. Burt, former president Of
the Union Pacific railroad, who was
talked Of as the head Of the new COM
mission, will not have a place on that
Body.
Mr.. Shonts is to have another con-
ference with the president at which
he situation in the canal region will
,e talked over in detail.
