an Accident.

performance, an extra strong gust
raised the enormous canvas high

ports from their positions, and the
whole mass fell upon the audience,

panic stricken effort to escape. The

In speaking Of the results Of the peace
mission, Mr.. Dennison. American adviser
to the Japanese peace ENJOYS. said:
I'VE did not insist upon an indemnity

we might have enjoyed the same advantage
that the Germans possessed when they oc-
cupied Paris They got big indemnity
from France merely as an inducement to
go away. An indemnity, in international
affairs, you know, Is not 80 much payment
for past losses as a guarantee that future
losses will be prevented.
But our fleets and armies were many
thousands Of miles from European Russia.
We could, II is true, have renewed the war
and captured Vladivostok and got, perhaps
in a position to collect an indemnity, but
1t would have cost much as the in
demnity itself would be worth. not to speak
of loss Of men.

about a hostile reception in Japan. There

LOOKING INTO CLAIMS
RETURN OF PROF. HOLLANDER
FROM sANTo DOMINGO.

Professor j. H. HoIlander and Consul
General Langhorne have arrived in Wash
ington from Santo Domingo The former
has collected a vast amount OF information
by direction of the President respecting the
character of the foreign Indebtedness Of
Santo Domingo and has been particularly
diligent in looking into the merits of GER
tain claims, some held by American cit-
zens, preferred against the Dominican re-
public. which, 1t is alleged, have been very
much inflated. This Information is regard
ed necessary for the guidance Of the
United States Senate when 1t takes up the
pending Dominican treaty at its next ses-
sion. Professor Hollander also made an
| investigation into the financial conditions Of
some of the West Indian islands adjacent
to Santo Domingo, with the purpose of
getting suggestions for the improvement of
the present customs service in the island.
Mr.. Langhorne was In charge OF the
American legation at Santo Domingo during
the absence on leave of the minister, Mr..
Dawson, who has just now returned to his
post He will not return to Santo Domingo
as his appointment was merely temporary.
He has been consular clerk and marshal
at Canton, and was appointed commercial
agent at Dalny Just prior to the outbreak
of the Russo-Japanese war, but was not
permitted to take up his post owing to the
fact that Dalny was within the theater Of
hostilities. Mr.. Langhorne brought with
him to the insuar bureau of the War De-
partment some reports from Captain Col
ton, the controller in charge Of customs.
With the delivery Of these his connection
with the government ceased and he has
gone to his Virginia home for a rest.
Dominican Receipts Grow.
Under American administration the Do
mlncan customs receipts are steadily SWELL

Department by Col Cotton, the controller.

ports from customs for the month of July

over the month of June, which itself showed
a marked increase over the receipts for
May The Dominican governments share
of these receipts was $S7,152, and the re-
ceiver laid aside s1O8,520 for distribution
among the foreign creditors The expenses
of administration were: For the collection
at all ports, $4.953; for the receivership,
s., 446; leaving the net sum OF $4,000 for
the trust fund on account Of the July col
lections. Altogether in four months OF
American control the customs receipts
amounted up to $897. 1913. and 1898, 74S of that
amount has been laid aside for the foreign
creditors Of Santo Domingo.

PREDICTS FIVE YEARS
BUNEAU-VARJLLA ESTIMATE
FOR COMPLETING CANAL.

Notwithstanding the exaggerated state
ments that have been made regarding the
impossibiiity of completing the Panama
canal within the next fifteen or twenty
years, this work will be finished within five
years" Thus spoke Mr.. Buneau-Varilla,
formerly the diplomatic representative
of the Panama government in this country,
who reached this city today, having recently
returned from trip to the continent of
Europe. Every great work." continued Mr..
Buneau-Varilla. requires some strategic
plan, and In this lies the success Of the
canal. Many seemingly great difficulties in
engineering, etc, are to be overcome,
though in the hands Of the present engi-
neers they will undoubtedly all be success
fully coped with. The forces Of nature,
too. are to be considered. This however,
need not be the cause Of serious apprehen-
sion. When the proper sanitary precautions
are taken the canal zone will not be the
undesirable living place 1t has been pic
tured.
THE question Of making the canal a lock
or a sea-level one is, Of course. impor-
tant one. I. myself. am In favor Of 1t first
being built after the lock plan. Then, If
this plan proves unsatisfactory it can read
lily be changed to the sea level, and without
moments delay to the passage of ships
When the foreign engineers meet and
confer with the American engineers many
difficult problems will be better understood.
gineers representing various countries is,
1 think, most sensible one. The canal
will really be worlds highway, and any
movement to bring about international CO.
operation In solving some of the present
constructive problems can result only in
good"

TO HAVE CONFERENCE
Southern Representative Men
to Meet.
CALLED FOR NOVEMBER
TO MEET IN NASHVILLE, TEN
NEsSEE.
Prosperity and Business Growth Of
South Spoken Of in Glow
ing Terms.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, September 10
formal call for a conference of southern
representative men to be held in this city
in November was issued today. 1t is
signed by twelve governors and the officials
of the chambers Of commerce of several
cities The call after reciting the prosper
Ity and business growth of the south and
its prospects says:
I'm the attempt that has been made by
various cities, towns and communities in
the south to protect themselves from the
dread ravages of yellow fever, the most
strenuous and at times the most unreason-
able, unnecessary and burdensome meas
ures have been adopted: measures that not
only tended to cripple and destroy business
and commerce, but which reflected on the
very instincts OF our common humanity,
and became a reproach to civilization it
self. 1t Is evident. therefore, that some
uniform system Of quarantine should be
adopted that will allay the apprehensions
Of the people and minimize the dangers re-
sulting from outbreak of this disease.
This Is necessary IL we would save our land
from the demoralizing and brutaliZing ten
denotes of a panic-inspired quarantine.
Again. there are coming into the United
states at the present time a larger number
OF foreign immigrants than ever known in
our country's history. Among these are
great masses who are wholly undesirable
and whom 1t will be impossible to ass,m-
flate with our institutions. There is ap-
parently desire or tendency to bring
many Of these undesirable immigrants to
southern ports and also to distribute them
from northern centers into the south.
THE south will welcome desira BILE immi-
grants from all lands and 1t has already
racial problems Of such gravity that no
others should be invited until proper safe
guards are provided in advance of their
coming.
For the foregoing reasons, therefore, the
southern conference on immigration and
quarantine. to be held in the city of Chat
tanooga on November o and 10. 1905. and
we designate the following persons as ex-
pected to compose and participate in this
conference:
Governors of the southern states men,
bers of Congress- commissioners of agri-
culture, mayors of cities. one represents
tive from each railroad system. preferably
the general immigration agents; the edi-
tors, publishers or proprietors of newspa-
pers and not more than five representatives
from each commercial organization in the
south"
The governors signing the call are John
I. Cox Of Tennessee, d. c. Blanchard of
Louisiana. Edwin Warfeld of Maryland.

TO INCREASE EFFICIENCY.
Pay of Officers in the Philippine Con-

Second lieutenant from $3.50 to 1920 per
annum
First lieutenant from s1,1O0 to $1,000 per
annum.
Captain from 81, 400 to n.7O0 per annum.
The increase of pay for length of service
will be governed by the same rules as the

Original appointments in the constabulary
are made In the lowest grade only, that
Is third lieutenant al 81, 100 per annum and
appointments in the United States are given
only to graduates of recognized military
schools having military departments under
officers of the army.
1t Is probable that in the near future
about twenty-five appointments will be
made. Applications for appointment should
be addressed to the chief of the bureau of
insular affairs of the War Department.

CHICAGO, September 16.-The expulsion
of afternoon receptions, with their pink
teas, costly gowns and other Iuxuries from
the local. state and national meetings of
the womens clubs was advocated yesterday
by Mrs. James Frake Of Chicago, president
of the State Federation of Women's Clubs,
In her address before the sixth congress
sionaI district convention of women's clubs,
held at haywood. She contended that the
receptions usually given were extravasant
and unbusinesslike.
ut seems TO me- said Mrs. Frake to the
300 women in attendance. that II is a
waste of time for ladies to spend the hours
that ought TO be devoted to the work OF
the clubs in gossiping at afternoon recep-
tions
The general federation meetings should
stand for the average home, where luxuries
are the exception. We should go to the
conventions to transact business rather
than devote our time to pleasure"
