Tho President Requests Secretary Taft 60

WASHINGTON, Dec 81 .-Acting upon
request from President Roosevelt Secre-
tary Taft is endeayoring to form work
ing plan for the Government OF the Panama
Canal Zone and the construction Of the
Isthmian Canal. IL IS the opinion Of the
President. Secretary Taft, Chief Engineer
Wallace, Chairman Hepburn OF the House
Committee on Interstate and Foreign Com
Inerce and many members of the Senate
Committee on lnteroceanio Canals that
the present organization IS inharmonlous
and inefficient Secretary Taft may recon-
mend a reduction in the membership OF

The commissioners, it is contended, have
been unable to agree upon anything dur
ing the. six months since Chief Engineer
Wallace has been on the ground That
Is the burden OF Mr.. Wallace's complaints
In conversation with congressman who
tisAed the Jsthmus a month ago. He did
nbe say anything to that effect in his public
examination by Chairman Hepburn Of the
Interstate Commerce Committee, because
he was given 20 understand that there
would be legislation during the winter
that would correct such faults IS he had
seen.
The chief engineer has been practically
marking time ever since he has been on the
Isthrnus He has asked for supplies and
for houses for the men he had employed,
but the commissioners. unable 70 agree
among themselves, have ignored hi- re-
quests or have cut down the quantity, the
result being bitter complaints from tho
sheiterless workmen and dissatisfaction
thinly yelled on the part Of the chief en-
glneer.
The declaration is made without qualln-
cation that Mr. Wallace has been pushed
from one place Of digging 70 another, be-
cause when he sunk has shovel at one point
at the request of ono Commissioner he was
warned away from it by another who had
not made up his mind IS TO how the work
should he done there. Divided counscls
among the Commissioner and conflicting
orders from them have made II Impossible
for Mr.. Wallace to do anything effectively
since he has been there ard from that fact
grows the feeling among tho members Of
the Congress- committees dealing with the
subject that there must be a reorganization
Of the governing and plan making body.
In behalf of Chief Engineer Wallace it
il said that he does not want the re-
sponsibillty for making plans. All he de-
sires To do is to execute such as are sent TO
him by men who have been or the ground
and know what ought to he done.
The chief engineer stipulation that he
would like to have plans sent 10 him by
men who have been on the ground i the
origin of the belief that whatever bill IS
passed by Congress it will contain pro-
vision requiring tho Commissioners 70 hive

OLD OFFICERS HOLD
SUPREME COURT sUsTAINS THE
 MOBILE BOARD.
John Craft and John COwley Lose Their Contest for Seats of W. H HOIcOmb and James
 Garrity.

The newly elected Revenue and Road Commissioners of Mobile County, John Craft and John Cowley, yesterday shared the same fate at the hands of the Supreme Court of Alabama, as did the gentlemen of Montgomery County elected last NovemberI
 The Mobile County Commissioners in dispute were those of the First Reve- nue and Road District. The gentle- men who were sustained in office are William H. Holcomb and James Gar rity.
 These officers from the First Dis trict were elected in the August elec- tion of 1902 Their election was regu- lated by a special act of the Legisla- ture of 1900-1901. They are only 8 part of the entire County Board, enti- tied to hold office for four years while other members are holding for term of only two years.
 Messrs. Craft and Cowley, armed with commissions issued them by Act ing Governor Cunningham, having been elected last November, instituted quo warranto proceedings against Commissioners Holcomb and Garrity In the Mobile Circuit Court. The writ was denied and an appeal was taken.
 The Supreme Court rendered no opinion in the case, only citing the eases of the State of Alabama ex rel Tyson against Houghton ct al. and the State ex rel Covington against Thompe son, which have application to the Mo- bile Commissioners.

With Thomas Q. SeabrOOlk
Musical Comedy Hit,
 ssThe HElIlOnalre."

With Th0mas @. SeabrOOHke.
 Klaw & Erlanger have long held the proud position of the leading producers of theatricals on an extensive scale in this country. The Harry B. Smith and Gus Kerker spectacular musical com edy, "The Millionaire" which they will present at the Montgomery Theatre to- night, promises to be one of their greatest and most successful efforts. It was the reigning attraction at Daly's s Theatre, New York, for sixteen weeks last season. It is said to be absolutely new and novel in the musical comedy line. The foundation upon which the author has built his story of pleasing fun and musical novelty is the charac- ter of John Doe, a young American bill lionaire. who has so much money that he has to invent all sorts of schemes to get rid of 1t. The opening scene is at Nice, where he meets a dashing young American actress, named Pansy Good, of Bird Centre. Iowa, and proposes to her that he will erect a theatre in New York and write a play. which will pre- sent her as a star to the American pub lie. The theatre project takes the whole party to New York. The second act opens upon one of the cleverest and most amusing scenes constructed In a long while. It represents a stage upon a stage, upon which a vaudeville per formance Is given. In connection with this circumstance of the story, many familiar happenings of a Metropolitan flrst-night will be laughably burlesqued and used to create much fun and humor. The performance will possess unusual interest from the humor of the story, the brilliancy of it's magic music, and the whirlW1ng pace with which it is presented. Rapidity of action has al- ways been a characteristic of Klaw & Erlanger's musical productions, and 1t is predicted that "The Millionaire" will create something of sensation in this respect alone. The supporting com pany of Thomas Q. Seabrooke will be one of the strongest ever seen in mu- sical farce, and will include Diamond Donner. Josie Intropidi. Helen Dexter. Lois Ewell, Vesta Stanson, Helen Car penter, Ethel Intropidi. Bessie Kinsella, Pauline Harrice, Harry Macdonough, Tony Hart. Walter Percival A. Seymour Brown, Frederic Scott, John Stepping, Charles Halton, James Grant and Abra- ham Friedland. There will be a large chorus, and the Klaw & Erlanger or chestra will be under the direction of A M. Langstaff, which will be a special feature. Seats now on sale. adv.
