Oyster Bay Sept 26-President Roosevelt had
a farewell talk this afternoon with Theodore P.
Shonts chairman of the Panama Canal Com
mission previous to Mr. Shonts's departure for
the isthmus. MI ShOnts sails on Thursday, in
company with the consulting board of engi-
neers and before he went he wished TO discuss
with the President a number Of details con-
nected with the work Mr.. Shonts said that he
did not know how long it would be necessary
for himself and the engineers TO remain on the
strip during their coming visit; but he added
that they would not leave the Panama Canal
zone before they had become thoroughly IA
mfIiar with every foot of the ground. MI.

General Porter said President Roosevelt was
in the best of health and spirits. and then he
added:
The President has wonderful capacity for
work; and this summer he has had his hands
particularly full. His work during the peace
conference was very heavy. but the wonderful
part about all that was the getting OF the
ENJOYS together If you get ENJOYS into
the same room and seated around table the
chances are strongly in favor OF their reaching
agreement. The difficult thing IS to bring
them together. l do not recall now a single
instance of such a conference adiourning with
out a general agreement

TROPICAL HURRICANES.

The storm which Frustrated hundreds or Dulld-

usually ten or twelve degrees above the equator.
and If they live long enough to do so, describe
Darabolic course. In the majority OF cases
thew are travelling westward when first OBJ
served Some of those which invade the Car1b-
bean Sea keep to the south of Cuba and ia
maica and reach the Gulf of Mexico before
curving to the northward and northeastward.
Others sweep up near Porto Rico and then move
off toward Bermuda. The majority of them
pursue a path lying between these limits. In
asmuch as Manila is In about the same latl-
tude as the island Of Martinique, it seems prob
able that the typhoon which has just visited
the city advanced upon it from the eastward
and crossed the island Of Luzon from the Pa
cific.
1t is characteristic Of the tropical cyclone that
early in its career it is very narrow, its diam
eter not exceeding fifty or a hundred miles A
storm of great severity will occasionally pass
between two neighboring islands IN the Wind
ward chain without doing much damage to
either of them. The typhoon which made trouble
this month in the TonQuin delta, four or five
degrees further north than Manila, does not
seem to have afflicted Luzon at all, though It
must have passed near to the northern extrem-
ty of the island. An absence of the breadth
which is subsequently developed obviously
works to the advantage of centres of popula-
ton situated near the track of a cyclone. On
the other hand, the progressive motion of the
storm during the first stages of its history is
remarkably slow, rarely exceeding five or six
miles an hour and this hardness proIongs the

AT least three typhoons have been reported
from Eastern waters this season. Almost
simultaneously with the appearance Of the one
which visited French China three or four weeks
ago a tidal wave three feet high flooded Shang-
hal and made mischief with the cable from that
city to Japan. The precise route followed by
the storm which gave rise to that tide is not
known. Reference to the map dscOurages the
belief that it could be identical with the one
which ravaged the coast twelve degrees or more
further south. especially since the trouble up
near Shanghai seems to have preceded that on
the TonQuin delta.
The West Indies have enjoyed exceptional
immunity this year. More or less danger yet
remains, because the period during which hurri-
canes may he expected there has not fully
passed. However if none appear in the next
month or six weeks. there will be little Tkeli-
hood Of any before next August.

4 RESIGNATION ~ ORDER.

Surely Major Carl Leutz must see that he is
not the man to conduct the Republican cam
paign in Essex County y. J.. this wear MI
Everett Colby's successful fight was directed
more at the major and his machine than any
hing else and it was so regarded by every
body, the major included. The meat, the heart
and the substance of the Colby campaign We're
a protest against bossism in general, and against
Major Lentzs brand in particular. Possibly it
was cruel, unwise and ungrateful to raise such
an issue; possibly the Republican voters were
foolish in deciding they did, but they GER
tainly made their wishes plain-sO plain as to
leave no doubt in the minds Of persons much
less intelligent than the major is.
Mr.. Colby has been nominated for State Sen
atOr; he has yet to be elected. His campaign
for election must be conducted on the same
lines as his ante-primary fight and TO have
such a campaign conducted by Major Lentz
would be, to say the least, somewhat incon-
sistent. The major ought to retire gracefully
and let somebody else have trial at the hard
and thankless work of county chairman.

REsrCHEsTER TROLLEY LINES.

The demand for the construction of trolley
line from YOnkers to White Plains gives re
newed point to the contention hitherto made in
these columns that under the direction of some
competent commission there should be general
planning of roads and transportation lines In the
suburbs of this city in order that those regions
may be properly opened up and made accessible
for residence and for industrial development
and that this may be done according TO a CO
herent, consistent and judiciOuS plan, which
shall have in view the general good and mutual
benefit of all interests concerned, and not in q
hit-ormss haphazard fashion, as hitherto, in
which one interest is often irretrievabIy harmed
for the dubious promotion OF another.
There Is we suppose little doubt that trolley
road from Yonkers to White Plains would be
good thing, provided it was laid upon a proper
course. Between the Harlem Railroad and the
NewYOrk and Putnam Railroad there is a wide
extent of country much in need of Improvement.
Some Of it is swampy, but is doubtless suscep-
tible Of being drained and made habitabe
Some of It is held in large estates. which will
not and should not be broken up. But there is
room in that region for half dozen pOpuIous
and attractive villages, They do not exist now
largely because of lack of transit facilities In
these days prosperous village must either be
upon railroad or be traversed by trolley line
It is scarcely probable that another railroad will
be built in that region, seeing that in the five
six miles between the Bronx and the Hudson
there are now three parallel lines. But there is
room, and there Is need Of a wool of trolley
lines among the warp OF railroads to complete
the transportation fabric.
Only few years ago. If wanted to get
from town on the Harlem Railroad to one on
the Hudson River Railroad he had either to
drive across country or else come all the way
down to New-York on the road and go out
again on the other Thus. in going from White
Plains to Tarrytown he would have to ride
thirty three miles on trains, although the places
are only seven miles apart. Now he can ride
across directly from to the other on a trolley
line. Similarly, Mount Vernon and Yonkers are
connected by trolley, and one Is being extended
from Ossining to Pleasantvile. But il is prob
able that still more such lines, either straight
across from one railroad to the other or running
diagonaly, as the proposed one from Yonkers TO
White Plains would do, would serve most val
liable purpose. Considering the size and I'm
portance of Yonkers and White Plains and the
amount OF travel there naturally is between
them ii would seem that there should be d-
rect route Of transit without the change of carS
which is now necessary This consideration Is
IN addition to the one already noted Of develop

DUCHESS RESTS EASILY
Suffers Little as Result Of Opera
ton to ReieUe Deafness.

The Duchess of Marlborough. who was opsrated
on for throat affection on Monday afternoon by
DR.. H. Hobrook Curtis. rested easily yesterday AZ
the private hospital at No 80 West $Sd-st. ana
there is every hope that she will be able to move
to the city home of one Of her many friends on
Thursday OF Friday of this week The duchess
suffered but little after the operation and was feel
ing well enough to-day to see several intimate
friends. Her mother Mrs o. H. P. Belmont: Ms
William X Vanderbilt. jr-. and Mrs Clarence
Mackay were among those admitted TO her room
Scores Of others called TO leave cards or flowers
and many more telephoned.
AS was told in The Tribune yesterday. the opeTs-
ton was for an affection Of the throat but the
trouble had a direct effect on her hearing. Inc
operation consisted in removing adenolds from the
ducbess's throat which had been affected for some
time. This operation is usual enough with chill
dren but is seldom performed on adults Other OF
erations have been performed on the duchess 70

care of Mueller.
