Peace Probably Short.

Mexico City. July 19.-The American
embassy has been very busy with mat
tiers GenRscted with the peace conference
in Central America.
,RevOlutionists say that if the condition
is not made at the peace conference that
Cabrera resign the presidency they will
continue fighting and will only be sat
isfied with General BarillOs or some other
man who represents his program There
is little doubt that even if the revolu-
tionists agree TO stop fighting for d time
they will begin at once preparing for d
fresh revolt, and they count on the active
support of SalvadOrean people, who have
had some of their foremost men killed In
this conflict The present revolution diff
fers from previous revolutions in being
well financed

Hartford. Conn, July 19.-Criticism OF

SECRETARY TAFT
GRANTS PERMITS
Power Companies Allowed to
Take a Certain Amount of
Water at Niagara.

Washington, July 19.-In accordance
with the act granting authority to Sec
rotary of War Taft to regulate and
control the waters of Niagara river for
the preservation of Niagara falls, Sec
rotary Taft has announced that tempo
rary permits will be granted power
companies to take the following
amounts of water:
Niagara Falls Power company, $500
cubic feet per second; Niagara Power
company, 1900 cubic feet per second !;
LOckport Hydraulic company, 500 cubic
feet from the Erie canal and 333 cubic
feet from the lower level of the same
canal at Lockport.
The Niagara, Lockport and Ontario
! Power company is granted permission
to receive into the United States cleo
trio current equivalent TO $4,000 horse
power daily from the Ontario Power
company of Niagara Falls, Canada, and
the Niagara Falls Power company is
authorized to receive from the Cana
dian Niagara Power company not to
exceed $4,000 horsepower of electrical
current daily. These last two permits
are the only new ones granted for the
taking of electricity generated in Can
ada into the United States.
The secretary of war states that he
will make a thorough investigation be-
fore granting permanent permits for
such transmission
The secretary's decision as to these
permits came as the result of hearing
at Niagara Falls July II, at which over
twenty manufacturing and power COM
panieS were represented, and also the
Civic Association of America, which is
VnrlDo n
Niagara falls. Members of the Ameri-
can section of the International Water
ways commission were present as adj
VisorS of the secretary.
The amount of water which can be
taken is limited by the law TO 1850 Gu
bic feet a second. The secretary says it
does not seem necessary to grant per-
mits now to companies not actually in
operation.

LOSSES BEING ADJUSTED
San Francisco People Have Hard
Wrestle With the Insurance
Companies.

San Francisco, July 19.-Chairman Hos
ford of the Dollar-for- Dollar committee
of five, said today that retribution is in
store for any of the thiTty-fiVe SO-called
dollar companies who are found to be
secretly evading the obligations they vot-
ed to uphold.
I'VE had to take in good faith the vote
which split the companies into two class
es, those in favor of horizontal cut and
those in favor of paying losses as separ-
ately adjusted" said he.
Those companies which voted for a
horizontal cut can never go back of that
record, but those who voted to meet all
proved losses in full can, by their &C
lions, lose their standing with the thirty
five companies. If we receive authentic
news that any of our members are cut
ting on payments, such companies will be
expelled by vote of the other companies. 8"
With today'S assignments of insurance
losses the underwriters committee Of fiji
teen disposed of 1885 cases in which six
or more companies are concerned. Of
these $50 have been adjusted and report
ed back by the subcommittee to which
they were assigned.
Today the dollar-for-dOllar committee of
five posted a list of twenty-five losses.

COLLISION OFF
STATEN ISLAND
Two Excursion Steamers Come
Together During Fog
With Terrific Crash.
PASSENGERS ALL SAVED
VESSELS iNTERlOCkED AND
KEPT AFLoAT.
PASSENGERS ALL SAVED

New York, July 1.-Two crowded eX-
night In New York harbor off Staten
island, imperiling the lives of 800 per-
sons, but neither in the crash itself nor
in the wild panic which followed was
any one seriously injured. The vessels
were the Perseus of the Iron Steamboat
company, bound for COney island with
500 passengers on board, and the Thorn
as Patten of the Patten line, bound
from Long Branch to New York, carry
ing 1000 passengers. The shrili whis-
ties of the colliding steamers soon
brought assistance from boats in the
vicinity, and the frightened passengers
were transferred as quickly as posi-
BILE and brought to this city, The Per-
seus and the Patten interlocked and
neither sank. Wrecking vessels were
sent to their rescue tonight.
Dense Fog Prevailed.
The lower harbor was covered with a
dense fog at the time of the collision
and the vessels were running at re-
duced speed When directly off ST.
George, Staten island, the Thomas Pat
ten crashed with terrific force into the
paddle wheel and box and tearing away
much of the joiner work. The Patterns
bow and upper fOredecks were badly
damaged. The impact was so great
that the vessels remained fast together.
No effort was made by the Patten to
break away for it was felt that safety
from sinking lay in the vessels remain
ing interlocked.
When the Patten doomed suddenly
out of the fog bank and il was seen
that a collision was unavailable, the
passengers on the two vessels became
frantic with fear Just before the crash
one man on the Perseus jumped over
board. He was quickly rescued, how
ever
Officers Acted Promptly.
The crews of the two vessels were
summoned to quarters and then the
captains and Officers went among the
passengers in an effort to restore quiet.
A hasty investigation showed that
neither vessel was in danger of going
down and the passengers were assured
of the fact. Meanwhile the whistles
were calling assistance, and while the
passengers were rushing about the
decks, seeking relatives and friends,
the excursion boat Commodore and a
Staten Island municipal Ferry boat
ranged alongside The transfer of pas
sengers was quickly made and all were
brought to the city. During the panic
many women tainted and some were
bruised but not seriously.
One of the passengers who landed
from the Persues declared that he had
seen two men jump overheard and he
thought both were drowned. There was
no confirmation of this, however.
Efforts were being made late tonight
to tow the disabled vessels toward
Brooklyn.

ADVANTAGE OF
STANDARD OIL
Missouri Railway Commissions
Trying to Find Out Cause
of Discrimination.

Kansas City, July 1S.-The oil rate
hearing postponed at st. Louis on July
was resumed today by the Missouri
board of railway and warehouse COM
missioners.
The principal complaint made last
night was that the Standard Oil COM
pany is receiving much the better rates
in Missouri and as a result has big
advantage over independent competl-
tors.
The hearing was set for this morning,
but was postponed until afternoon on
account of the nonarrival of out-of-
town witnesses.
When the hearing was resumed this
afternoon the independent shippers pre-
scented comparisons of receipts for oil
in carload lots in several states. These
figures were the most interesting feat
ureS of the session.
f, W. BolZ of Cleveland. traffic man.
ager of the Central Petroleum assocla-
ton, was the principal witness. Mr..
BolZ said that the carload rate from
Cleveland to Huron, o., fifty-one miles,
is 61b cents a hundred. In Missouri,
north of the Missouri Pacific railroad,
the witness said, the rate is IL cents
for fifty miles: south of that road the
rate is Is cents for fifty miles. In
Kansas, the witness said, the rate for
fifty miles is 51a cents.
Mr.. Bolz, replying to question of j.
A. Knott, one of the commissioners,
said the carload rates now in effect in
Kansas would be fair In Missouri. He
believed, he said, that the Kansas rates
are fair as compared with the rates in
other states.
E. NJ. Without, an independent dealer
of Springfield, Mo-, had begun to testi-
fly when the hearing adjourned until
tomorrow.

RUMORS OF BRIBERY.
PoeateIIo Paper Starts Story on
w. e. Borah.
Especial to The Herald.)

Boise, July 19-The Pocatello Tribune
today. under ST. Anthony date, published
a statement that there was story cur
rent there that bribery had been prac-
ticed by the Borah forces in the Ere
mont county convention and that it was
responsible for Brady's defeat.
The Statesman telephoned St Anthony
to learn if any such story was current
there. 1t Will say this morning:
I'm response to inquiries 1t was learned
that nobody at ST. Anthony had heard
any such story. c. c. Moore authorized
the Statesman TO say that no such story
had been heard there. He said he had
been on the streets all day and had heard
no suggestion of that kind 1t would
have been impossible, he said for any
such story to be on the streets without
reaching his ears, and he had no heSita-
ton in stating without any qualification
whatever that no story of that character
was in circulation. No story had been
circulated there to the effect that any
body had been bTibed to leave the Brady
camp and Join the Borah forces"
