TAFT is GOING TO PANAMA
Secretary of Wnr Planning a Trip to
the Canal Site During the
Month of November.

Washington, Oct, 9.-Following the
announcement that ii had been decided
to make no change regarding the de-
partment of the government which
should control the affairs of the Pan
ANA canal, Secretary Taft announced
that he would go to the isthmus, unless
something unforeseen prevents. He
will leave Washington about the first
week in November, although conditions
may be such that he will be delayed
until the 18th, The decision to keep
the control of the canal in the war de-
partment, instead of transferring it to
the state department, was definitely
reached in a discussion that followed
a cabinet meeting. When Secretary
Taft returns from New York, in a few
days, he will take UP the question of
the finances of the isthmian canal COM
mission with President Roosevelt. The
great problem to be decided is whether
the work on the isthmus shall be car
ried on by money obtained by appro-
priations from congress, or whether con-
| gress shall be asked to authorize the
issue of Panama bonds, the proceeds
of which will be applied to the con-
struction of the canal.

DOCTOR C. NJ. STANLEY DEAD
A Relapse Followed Vent2ring Out
Too Soon After Recovering From
an Attack of Fever.

New Orleans, Oct. 10.-A martyr In
the fight against yellow fever, DR.. G.
M. Stanley, formerly Of North Dakota,
died at his plantation home on Bayou
Barataria as the result of a relapse from
yellow fever, his illness extending over
the past two weeks. DR.. Stanley came
here with his family about three years
ago from the northwest. When the fe-
yer appeared in New Orleans he refused
to leave, and when it developed in
Bayou Barataria he volunteered his
services to assist in stamping it out. He
placed his steam launch at the disposal
Of the authorities, and for days and
nights visited and ministered to the
sick. Several weeks ago he was him
self stricken and was brought to the
city and taken to the emergency hos
pital. He remained there until he be-
lieved himself cured, and Immediately
returned to the bayou to resume his
work. Exposure and the fact that he
had ventured out too soon resulted in a
fresh attack of illness and physicians
and two trained nurses have been in at
tendance on him.
Death came Monday. DR.. Stanley
was a thirty-second degree'Mason, and
he will be buried from the Masonic
temple with high Masonic honors.

THE WRECK OF The ST. PAUL
All Hands saved, Bnt the Passengers
Suffered Considerably From the
Unusual Exposure.

Eureka, Cal, Oct. Fast upon the
rocks, one and one-half miles south OF
Point Gorda, the San Francisco G. Port
land Co.'s steamer, st. Paul. Capt.
Randall, lies a total wreck. It's SO pas
sengers and crew of 65 mer are safe.
Some are on board of the steamer
Pomona, en- route to San Francisco.
but the greater number are il Eureka,
having arrived on the tug Ranger and
the steamer Vanguard. The captain
and most of the crew are in Eureka.
The steamer passengers suffered
much from exposure, and a number OF
them tainted when they realized their
peril.
]. F. Wickman, of San Francisco,
who arrived here on the Vanguard,
gave the following account of the
wreck.
'The first bump was as though we
were rushing over stones. There was
a short interval Of quiet, then a severe
rumbling, throwing the boat from side
to side. l jumped from my berth and
opened the door. 1t was raining, and
the deck was apparently deserted, I
thought we had been struck by some
heavy sea. Just then | heard some bells
ringing and loud talk and knew that
we were in for it.
81 saw officers and members of the
crew awakening the passengers. Some
women were in a state of excitement.
After making a poor attempt at dress
ing, they appeared to gain control of
themselves, when assured by the Off
GERS that they had plenty of time.
81 left the ship in the second boat.
We stood by the steamer according to
instructions from the captain, when a
heavy fog shut down and we put out
to sea. Two hours later we sighted the
st. Paul and shortly after the Ranger
hove in sight"
Capt. Randall says the disaster was
due to the thick fog and attaches
blame to no one.
The vessel will prove a total wreck,
The cargo, LOO tons of miscellaneous
freight, will also be a total loss.

THE TREATY OF PORTSMOUTH
1t VIII Become Effective Immediate
ly on Being Signed by the
Two EmpcrOrs.

Washington, Oct. 10.-The treaty Of
peace between Russia and Japan will
become effective upon its approval
without waiting the formal exchange Of
ratifications at Washington. This in
formation was impaired at the Japan-
ese legation. This course has been de-
cided upon, in order that the speediest
possible termination of the war may
be had. The treaty, 1t is understood,
has passed through the necessary pre-
liminary stages of approval in each
country, and is now before the respec-
tive emperors of Japan and Russia for
the royal signatures. AS soon as 1t has
been signed this fact will be communal
Gated by cable to the state department
at Washington, and the Washington
government will apprise each emperor
Of the act of the other. With this ac-
complished, the wal will be at ar end.
The formal exchange Of ratiications
will be carried out in Washington as
soon thereafter as the signed treaties
reach here.

EXCEEDS EXPECTATIONS
The Volume of Early Fall Trade,
While Not QUite So Active, Still
Larger Than Expected.

New York, Oct. 7.-Bradstreet's
weekly review says:
While not so active as in recently
preceding weeks, the volume of trade
still exceeds expectations. Contributing
to this are better reports from retail
lines, necessitating recorders of reason
able goods, fall festivals, charging
crop movement and a continued i'm
mense turnover in idustrial lines. Com
plants as to car shortages increase,
the grain, coal, coke, iron and lumber
trades all reporting congestion from
this aus Undiminished activity is
witnessed in the iron trade, demand for
crude and finished products surprising
previous years at this period. Higher
levels of future cost, particularly as to
coke and ore, confront these trades.
Collections for the country as a whole
are good. Money is still moving to the
country and while in liberal supply
for ordinary trade purposes, higher
quotations at home and abroad seem
certain. Bank clearings testify to new
heights being reached fer this season
of the year.

Thousands of spectators, standing UNI
covered in a drilling rain, walled the
broad Nevsky Prospect from the Mos
COW station to the gates of the monas-
terry, while grand dukes, ministers of
state, courtiers and the highest officers
of the army and navy, many of whom
had won distinction at Port Arthur and
in M%anchuria, followed the coffin on
foot through the muddy streets, as COM
mon mourners with the widow and son
Of the dead general.
In the procession could be seen the
uniforms of every Russian military or
ganiZation. Each regiment of the St
Petersburg garrison sent a detachment
of veterans, many bearing the 30-year
service medals, to form the military es'
cort.
The emperor had been expected te
attend, but as he was unable to do sc
he was represented by Grand Duke
Vladimir.
Metropolitan Antonius, assisted by
the imperial choristers, celebrated the
"Panicheda' for requiem, and eulogized
Gen. Krondratenko as ''the soul of the
defense, for when he died the fortress
fell"
