PRESIDENTS CONTINUED REFER ENCES TO PANAMA INDICATE THAT QUESTION WILL COME UP IN CONGRESS.

Washington. October 24.-(Special.)- President Roosevelts continued refer ences to the Panama canal seem to in- dicate pretty clearly that he is expecting canal matters to play an important part in legislation this winter. Incidentally 1t would have been interesting If the Pres- ident had explained in his vigorous man. ner just how it happened that We should either have the Panama canal or no ca nal.''
 It is a well known fact that the inter- ests which opposed any canal very sud- denly became advocates of the Panama canal they saw at a glance that the peo- pie demanded canal and as the weight of engineering authority was favorable to Nicaragua they went for Panama. There is no man in the Senate today will ing to do more for the successful comple- tion of the Panama canal than Senator Morgan of Alabama and those who fol- lowed him in Congress. If the canal work is now being opposed by anything other than nature it will probably be found that the influences at work are those which at a critical moment went over to the Pan anna route. A

 WHITES OF VOTE
Governor Aycock Says Philadelphia Is the Only Place Where They Do That.

Baltimore, October 24.-The local dem ocratic campaign was opened tonight with a meeting at The Lyceum, which was damned by an extremely enthusi- astic audience v,hieh included an unusual ly large number of ladies. Ex-Governor Charles B. Aycock of North Carolina was the chief speaker. Attacking the argu- ments of the opponents of the proposed disfranchisement amendment to the state constitution, he declared onIy the negroes would lose their votes; that in his own state not single white man had been deprived of the franchise, and he declared emphatically that if such and amendment pass, no white man In Maryland would have his vote taken from him.
 "The truth is,' he said, that you can not disfranchise the white man. any where, except in the good old radical city of Philadelphia"
 Again speaking from experience, he said:
 Remove the negro and you remove bossism.
 John P. Poe of this city, the reputed author of the proposed amendment, also made an address.

Atlanta, October 2.-(Special.)--I has been decided to formally launch the plans and movement for a big industrial expo sition in Atlanta in 1910 at the biennial meeting of the Atlanta chamber of com merce, which will be held on Novem- Der 28.
 For this purpose the chamber of com merce has decided to send out invitations all over the country and to invite here on this occasion particularly those men whose efforts have brought success to past expositions. President David R. Francis of the St. Louis exposition will be especially urged to come and assist in the preliminary movement. In addition to this a number of editors. manufactur- ers business and commercial men will be invited from each state in the south, and practically convention will be held with a view to getting the 1910 exposition movement under way sufficiently in ad- vance to make it an undoubted success.

Eight Thousand Men Decide
 to to on Strike
WITTE HEARS THEIR DEMANDS
Many of Them Could Not Be Realized In Any Country, But Many He Considers Worthy of
 Attention.

St Petersburg, October 24.-At meet ing of 5000 railway men held in the uni versity tonight, 1t was decided to declare
 strike on all the railways operating
 out of St. Petersburg. beginning tomor- row.
 It also was decided at meeting to send deputations to Prince Hilkoff minister of railways, and Count Witte, president of
 the committee of ministers to present to
 them addresses demanding political re-
 forms, including the convocation of a con- stitutent assembly. elected by direct uni versal suffrage. The meeting remained in session until the return of the deputa- tions, the time being occupied by further
 discussions of the situation, and the de- livery of the speeches of the most revolu- tionary character, all of which were loud ly applauded. Those present included a large number of students.
 Received by Count WItte. The deputation returned toward mid night without having succeeded in see-
 Ing Prince Idlkoff. owing to his absence at Peterhof, where he was making rail- way report to Emperor Nicholas They
 found Count Witte, who received them,
 but who insisted that the interview must
 be of private character, he, as president
 of the committee of ministers, having no
 right to accept an address. He said.
 however. that he had no objection to the
 publication of the conversation.
 Contained Many Demands. He pointed out that the address contain ed many demands which would not be re- alzed in any country, and also many which were worthy of attenticn. He said that a constituent assembly was quite impossible, and contended that the suf-
 frage and other political demands had nothing to do with the question of rail- , roads. The count promised that liberty of meeting and of the press would be
 promptly granted, and said that the con tinued application of martial law to the railroads was due to a misunderstanding,
 and would be remedied. He declared that
 he was friendly to all reasonable de- mands for liberty, and promised to confer with Prince Hilkoff as to the best means of dealing with the railroad question. At the same time he advised the deputation to end the strike, and then to peaceably formulate the demands of the men. Having listened to the report, the meet ing decided to postpone action until the deputation had an interview with Prince Hilkoff.

Municipal waterworks for Columbus

olumbus, Ga, October A.-tSpecial)-Co- lumbus will soon have a municipal system of waterworks. An important meeting oi the board of water commissioners was held tonight, at which 1t was virtually decided to have meeting of the board in the near future at which a source of sup ply would be selected. Several sources are being considered, among others artesian wells in Alabama, Blue Springs in the mountains of Harris county, Ga, twenty miles north of Columbus, and several creeks near this city. The Chattahoochee river has been almost eliminated as a source of supply, there being such a strong popular prejudice against the use of river water.

W|TTE NOW THE POWER IN RUSSIA Emperor Places His Confidence
 in tha Count PLANS MADE FOR THE DOUMl Enlargement of the Power of the Body May Involve the Postponement of

PLANS MADE FOR THE DOUMA

St. Petersburg October 24.-The an rlouncement made in these dispatches yes teray that Count witte would shortly as- sume active direction of the government as premier and head of responsible cabi- net. now seems to be fully confirmed. It can be stated positively that the Elm peror has rendered the position of premier of the cabinet about to be formed to the count who, however, guarded his accept ance with certain conditions, which were placed before his majesty in the form ot a written memorandum. Count Witte Is said to have informed the Emperor in his usual fearless manner that he could accept the position only on the condi- ton that he would be real premier with working cabinet. and not the mere fig urehead of an irresponsible body.
 Has Confded in Count.
 According to a persistent report, the Emperor actually appointed Count Witte as premier after accepting his stipula- tions This report is premature, but 1t can be said that his majesty has undoubt- edly confided to the count the task of drawing up. according to his ideas the project for a responsible ministerial cab met, the consideration of which was be- ing tediously dragged out in special con ference. It can also be said that follow ing the advice of Count Witte the pow CTS of the new douma will be extended along western lines, and the franchises broadened The reforms will be accom- panied by the practical freedom of the press and of meeting at least partially the popular demands Count Witte Insisted that only In this way could the country be tranqulized, and the Emperor ap- parently needed the warning.
 Involve Postponemcnt.
 These radical changes in the douma pro ject, and the extension of the franchises will probably involve the postponement of the meeting of the national assembly until the spring. but the disappointment will be more than offset by the enlarge- ment of the powers of the douma. and the broadening of the suffrage. It Is under stood that this revised douma plan will be promulgated immediately in the hope of stopping agitation by the social demo- crats under whose leadership the railroad and other strikes are being organized and carried on as a political protest mainly against the deprivation of workmen of the right to vote. Pending tho elaboration of a law granting freedom of meeting a new statute giving a restricted right Of assemblage under police supervision has been signed.
