PANAMA CANAL MAY
Be BUILT BY CONTRACT

Washington, Oct. "A tentative
decision has been reached by Chair
man Shonts, of the Isthmian canal
commission that the Panama canal be
built by contract. An announcement
of the final determination of the canal
officials respecting the method of con-
sturction is expected in few days.
Chairman Shonts has had long
conference with the president, at
which this and other matters relating
to the canal were considered fully.
The president is anxious that a con-
clusion be reached on all questions of
canal construction as soon as posi- BILE,
so that the actual work of construc-
tion may be pressed vigol ously.
It is understood that the president
has not abandoned his contemplated
trip to Panama, and will not unless
the Cuban situation or some other
question should become so acute as to
require his presence in Washington.
Former Gov. Charles E Magoon has
confidence in the Jamaica negro as
laborer on the canal. He had organ
lied a police force of these men and
says they are very efficient. Much of
the complaint that has been made
against them as laborers, he thinks,
is because they do not thoroughly
understand American terms and the
names ONT articles in common use.

MAY CLOSE MANY MILLS
Raise in Price of Logs Not Relished by
haill Men.

Raise In Price of Logs Not Relished ~
Mill Men,
Seattle, Dot 2.-That the advance
Of 81 to 81 in log prices ordered by
the Washington Logging q Brokerage
Company will mean the shutting down
Of q large number Of lumber mills on
salt water dependent on the loggers
belonging to the company for their
timber supply is the opinion OF Victor
81. Beckman, secretary Of the Pacific
Coast Lumber Manufacturers Associa-
ton.
"No, do not believe lumber prices
will be raised as q result Of the adj
vance of the price of logs" said Mr..
Beckman, 'for the reason that thu
trade will not stand it. We have al
ready been forced out of the greater
part of the Eastern markets by the
yellow pine, and North Dakota and
Colorado is about all we have left l
do not think that market will stand
an advance Of 81 to 50 per thousand.
II do not blame the loggers. Con-
ditions in the log market seemed to
justify the advance. But that does
not alter the fact that the millmen are
not going to be able to bold their mar
kets if they make a corresponding ad-
vance, and if they do not make such q
raise several of them are going to be
forced to close down."

wine GRAPE CROP OF
CALIFORNIA DAMAGED

Los Angeles, CAL, Oct. 2.-Accord-
ing to statements from authoritative
sources the expectations of vineyard
lists that the present season would real
ize the largest wine grape crop,,in the
history of Southern California have
been shattered by the wave of almost
unprecedented heat which struck this
section of the state Saturday night
and continued with but moderate
abatement until Monday evening.
Thousands of tons of choice grapes,
say the growers, have been scared
within TIE past two days and will be
good for nothing but brandy making
or raisins. The picking of these fruits
was in progress but when the hot wave
struck without warming hundreds of
pickers quit the fields and refused at
any price to return to work while the
heat lasted. As high temperature
in the streets as 1i2 degrees in the
shade was reached Sunday, and yester-
day the mercury quivered around the
hundred point. Last night it grew
appreciably coler and the indications
are that the hot spell Is broken.

JAPAN'S GREAT ADVANTAGE
Have Wonderful Organization and All
Work to One End.


Seattle, Oct. 4.-"Probably within
five years Japan will have gained the
commercial supremacy Of the Pacific
ocean," declared S. Glen Andrus,
railroad editor of the Chicago Record
Herald, who has been touring Japan
for several months.
"The Japanese have wonderful
organization" continued Mr.. Andrus.
Their war machine was the most
complete of any in history. Every
man worked with but one idea-the
good of his country. ALI private gain
was forgotten and the one thought was
to do for the nation. This same sys.
tenn is being used today in the country e
commercial invasion. The Japanese
act as unit, and when q nation az q
whole thinks and works for but one
end, as these Japanese are doing. it il
bound to get results"
In speaking of conditions in China.
MIR. Andrus expressed doubt as To
the fitness of the Chinese for constitu.
tional government promised them in
fifteen years.

PRESIDENT SAYS GIVE
CUBANS ANOTHER CHANGE

Washington, Oct. s. President
Roosevelt discussed freely with his
cabinet and with individual callers,
among whom were Senators Knox and
Foraker, the present situation in Cuba
and it's temporary occupation by the
American forces. The matter was
talked over at the cabinet meeting,
but no definite announcement Of the
result of the deliberations was given
out.
The president related to the cabinet
and to the other callers with whom he
talked that the action taken by the
American government was destined
solely for the benefit Of the people of
the island, with view to the CON-
plete restoration of order there and
the protection of all interests.
No Thought of Annexation
He declared that he had no such
mvtive in view as the possible an
nexation of the island to the United
States. What he wanted now was that
the Cubans should be given another
chance at self government.
Unless extraordinary conditions
arise, no extra session of congress will
be called to deal with the Cuban stu
alton, as the president considers he
has ample authority to deal with the
matter.
Former Governor Charles e. Ma
COON, Of the Panama canal zone, who
has just returned from Panama, will
be appointed head of the provisional
government of Cuba in succession to
Secretary Taft. Both the president
and Secretary Taft had. in view the
designation Of Gov. Beekman Win
throp. of Porto Rico, for the Office.
The president, however, has expressed
the belief that he can better spare
Gov. Magoon from his duties in the
Philippine islands, where he has been
appointed member of the Philippine
commission and vice governor general
of the Philippines. than he can the
services Of Gov. Winthrop for the sew
eral months during which he expects
the provisional government Of Cuba
will continue.
The president expects Secretary Taft
to return to Washington in the course
OF two weeks.

COMMISSION WINS
9. R.&N. SUIT DECIDED In FAVOR
OF STATE.
judge Chadwick Holds That State
Legislature Is Empowered to
Create Rate Making Board and
Refuses to Declare Joint Wheat
Rate Illegal.

Colfax. WASH, Oct. 4.-Judge 8. j.
Chadwick has handed down decision
in the matter of the writ of review in
the case of the state ex. rel. Oregon
Railroad & Navigation Company vs..
the state board Of railway commission
ers, reviewing the decision of the rail
road commission handed down after
the session here last June, at which
time the commission granted joint
rate on wheat not to exceed 1871 cents
per hundred to Sound points. The
court holds:
"Under section 10, article 10, OF
the Washington state constitution
and irrespective of the constitution
the legislature of the state of Wash
ington has power to fix maximum
freight rate for common carriers op.
Grating within the state of Washing

mum rates is no limitation of the pow.
or of the legislature to create rail.
road commission with rate making
power. A railroad commission car

whether the provision of section

the provision of this act shall not ap'
ply to street railroads or electric rail.
roads of the class known as su burban
or interurban railroads which operate
cars in connection with street rail
road lines, though also extending over
private rights of way renders the Law
unconstitutional under the Fourteenth
amendment to the constitution of the
United States, and section Is, article
10, of the constitution Of the state OF
Washington, depends upon the char
acter of the business done by interur'
han and suburban roads.
"a court cannot determine the
status of suburban and interurban
roads as a matter of law or classify
them either as street railways or com.
mercial railways. There is no evil
dence in this case showing that inter.
urban or suburban roads are doing the
same kind of business under the same
conditions as steam railroads. In the
absence of any showing of arbitrary
classification, the court will presume
in favor of the legislative classified
ton and sustain the law"

DISPUTES
NEGOTIATIONS ON CANADIAN DIE.
FERENCES NEAR An END.
British Ambassador Coming TO
Terms With Washington Gov
eminent on Fisheries and Other
Subjects--Pelagic Sealing May
BeStoppedWith Compensation

London, Oct. with the inorees-
Ing interest in Canadian affairs there
has been q revival in England OF the
discussion Of the negotiations which
Sir Mortimer Durand, the British am
bassador at Washington, has been car
rying on with the American govern
ment for the settlement of the various
questions in dispute with the United
States concerning Canada and New
Foundland. As far as the fisheries
question with the latter colony is con-
oerned, the points of difference ara
about to be settled. Sir Mortimer and
the state department at Washington
have practically reached an under
standing. While the negotiations have
been carried on in the most friendly
manner, there have been periods Of
uneasiness lest either colonial or Amer
lean fishermen should commit some
act that might cause an incident"
Agreement Il Near.
It is said, however, that the official
agreement is so near that one might
almost say the question is settled. OF
the outstanding questions affecting
Canada, that of sealing is causing the
greatest difficulty, but here again the
British ambassador and the state de-
partment are making Roadway. Can
ada appears to be more favorably dis
posed toward the American proposal
for the entire stopping Of pelagic seal
ing, with compensation to the Cana
dams affected thereby.
Sir Mortimer has kept in close touch
with the Canadian authorities during
the negotiations, the foreign Office con-
sidering this to have been better than
the Canadian suggestion made early in
the year for the appointment Of Can
adian attache to the British embassy
at Washington to advise the ambassa-
dor on Canadian affairs. This Great
Britain declined to agree to. It was
considered hardly likely that such an
appointment would be acceptable to
the United States. as, no matter who
was the appointee, he probably would
have been considered the special advo-
cate of Canada.
