TURKEY HAS THE RIGHT
CAN REFUSE TO RECEIVE QUE
NEW AMBASSADOR.
Such an Act by the Sultan Would Not
Tend to Strengthen Friendly
Relations With Us.

The State Department has not been adj
vised Of the existence of any opposition on
the part OF the Turkish government to the
erection of the American legation at Con-
stantinopie into an embassy. OF course, II
the sultan should decline to receive Mr..
Leishman In tho capacity Of ambassador
under the credentials he now holds, he Is
acting perfectly within his rights. But 1t
is certain that such a course would not
tend to the strengthening of the relations
between Turkey and the United States,
because In the view OF the officials here 1t
would amount to a distinct discrimination
against the United States and in favor of
the great European powers now all repre-
scented by ambassadors at the porte.
These amba ssadors have by right of their
Office personal access to the sultan at any
moment. The American ministers and the
other ministers, in fact, must do business
through the porte entirely. and on the rare
occasions when they gain access to the
person of the sultan they are obliged to
walt many weeks for the opportunity. The
result Is obstruction and embarrassment in
the transaction of business. that the
State Department Is not likely to receive
graciously any protest against the reception
of Mr.. Leshman's ambassadorial creden-
tials. 1t Is true that much of this business
has related to the presentation of mission
airy claims against Turkey. but II the gov
eminent of that country cherishes the idea
that these are to be obStructed by refusal
to allow them to be presented through an
ambassador, It is probable that the State
Department will be obliged to respond by
charging the diplomatic representative of
the United States at Constantinople, even
though he remain in the grade of minister,
tofore unknown in the course of the ne
gotiations.

PANAMA CANAL BONDS.
Secretary Shaw Satisfied He Will Sc
cure Good Prices.

Secretary Shaw feels satisfied that he will
be able to secure good price for the $40
100000 Panama canal bonds, for which bids
have been asked the Goth of this month.
Some suggestions have come to him that
the large New York houses that handle
government bonds might combine to secure
the bonds at figure that pleased them
by putting in a bid for all none of the
bonds at certain price, leaving only the
bids OF the small purchasers from which
to dispose of the bonds In case the syndi-
cate offer was not accepted. Secretary
Shaw has let 1t be known that he has
number of ways he can dispose of the
bonds to variety of bidders al good prices.
He has already accelerated better bids by
sending notifications to banks in subtreas-
ury cities that received S10,CO0.000 in de-
posits of government money last fall that
nicipal bonds that were then put secur-
ity for the money with government bonds.
This means that the banks must go into the
market for $10O0000o of government bonds
and that in all probability they will each
bid for the amount of bonds necessary to
the replacement that has been asked for.
There is a variety of railroad and other
bonds on deposit with the treasury in GER
tain cases which the Secretary may require
to be replaced with government bonds. he
thinks that by steps of this kind he will be
able to force good price for the Panama
bonds.
Secretary Shaw anticipates that there will
be a larger number of individual bids for
for. These with the bonds that must be
had to take the place of state and munich
pals and $10,000000 more to cover deposits
the Secretary will make the banks will,
Ii Is believed, come very near making places
for the first issue of canal bonds at good
figures.

animals is an aged dog, which Is both deaf

RECEIVES HEARTY RESPONSE.
Juveniles Hilariously Greet Announce
ment of New Playground.

rs this the place where we are goin' TO
play?' was the query which was made by
a small boy of the ''irrepressible" variety.
at the door of the Juvenile Court at 1915
F street northwest this morning. Janitor
William Hickey was in charge of the build
ing at the time.
How did you know we had a playground
here? questioned Mr.. Hickey.
MY papa read it In The Star last night"

several others, and all looked anxious. They
were told that a playground was open to
them in the rear yard. and with q whoop
they all rushed to the shady lawn. Through
out the forenoon boys focked to the court
to play, and there were chfldren's voices
heard there practically all day. Some
equipment for games was obtained for the
use of the children since yesterday. These
included an outfit CT base ball bat and
gloves, some more croauet mallets and
balls and similar articles. These were very
popular ali the morning. and several games
of 'One old cat were played and many
home runs made.
The response which met the announce

BOOMERANG FOR BRIToNs.
Indignant Cry Over American Meats
Comes Home to Them

LONDON. July 10-The Britishers who
have been so virtuous recently over the Chi
cage meat-parking revelations were today
confronted with the annual report of the
inspector of factories and workshops, which
shows that the conditions here are quite
as revolving as anything alleged of the
western packing center. Dirty factories
and disgusting methods seems to be the
rule instead of the exception. Jam factories,
bakeries and sausage makers are all CEN
suTed as being equally filthy, and the de-
scriptiou of one fits most of the others
Here is the report on q typical Jam fac
tory:
The boiling room lay between the yard
and the stable and the horses reached the
latter through the boiling room. The sani-
tary accommodation was hardly separated
from the rooms where the fresh fruit and
uncovered jam was kept and the floors
were dirty and undrained."
Another factory inspector found jam
pots being washed In liquid like dark soup
which smelled abominably" The manager
informed the inspector that tie water was
changed about once week" When
hshed out of these evil-smelIing tanks the
pots We're allowed to stand until dry, when
they were considered to be ready to re-
Celve fresh installments of preserves
Inspectors or bakeries found that It was
frequent custom TO battle the children In
them after the close of work on Saturday
and the family's weekly collection of dirty
clothing sent to the bakeries for dis
patch 10 the laundry.
The sausage factories says the report,
are mostly conducted by Germans and are
small. dilapidated, badly lit, and are in

PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT
SUBSTANTIAL PROGRESS MADE
IN SHIPPERS MOVEMENT.

The movement of the leading business
men of the city to make Washington
shipping center is progressing favorably.
The meeting to be held at the offices or the
American Security and Trust Company
Thursday viii doubtless be largely attend
ed by the representatives of many or the
business houses of the city. At this meet
ing the formal organization of the local
merchants will take place, and the ship
pers' association will then see what 1t can
do to benefit the merchants. The work OF
readjusting the railroad rates to whatever
extent it will be found they can be read
justed will be begun as soon as possible
and Judging from the representations
made by the railroad officials to the organ
izers OF the shipping movement 1t is more
than probable that better facilities will be
offered when the increased business shall
demand it.
The readjustment of the rates and the
securing of better shipping facilities will
mark long step forward in making Wash
ington a shipping center.
At the meeting Thursday 1t Is proposed to
appoint committee to thoroughly inyesti-
gate the rate problem, and with this mat
ter settled the organizers can get down to
business In short time.
In speaking OF the matter Mr.. Charles E.
Howe of the American Security and Trust
Company, who is taking practical interest
in the movement, said that during today
he had heard from several firms who trans-
act quite q volume of business In tbs ely
and that they indorse the proposed associa-
ton Mr. Howe also stated that the organ
izers of the association are grateful to the
press OF Washington for the lively interest
taken In the movement.
In regard to the meeting to be held on

STEAMER PENTZ AGROUND.
Old-Time Vessel to Be Wrecked Upon
Arrival Here.

The old side-wheel steamer Samuel j.
Pentz which for twelve or fifteen years
ran on the excursion routes between the
city and River View. with occasional trips
to Chapel Point, Colonial Beach and other
points on the Potomac, Is ashore on Wag
ner's Point, In the mouth of the Patapsco
river, with her decks awash. AS stated in
The Sunday Star, the old steamer was
sold recently to Mr.. James Heath of this
city by Capt. E. 8. Randall. and she was
being brought to the city to be wrecked
when she sprang a leak and had to be
beached to prevent her going down in deep
water
The steamer was in tow of the tug VIII,
liam H. Yerkes. jr., of this city. and had
not cleared the Patapsco river when the
leak started. She is lying in a secure posi-
ton not liable to damage from storms,
and 1t Is stated that Mr.. Heath will en-
deayor to have her raised in oder to bring
her to this city.
The Pentz was built In 1859 at Green's
point, N. Y. and was named the Long Is
land. During the civil war she was used
as transport, her speed and carrying ca
pacity admirably fitting her for such work.
In the latter part of the war she was sunk
in the Cape Fear river. North Carolina,
and lay there for more than 8. year, when
she was purchased by the Maryland Steam
boat Company. which had her raised and
rebuilt. She was then christened the Samuel
J. Pentz. in honor of q prominent merchant
of Baltimore, and for number of years
ran over routes on the bay. proving to be
a most popular boat
About the year 1880, after the loss of the
steamer Crystal Wave. Capt. Randall pur-
chased the Pentz and put her into service
on the Potomac river. She was always
fast steamer. and In this service proved
very popular, carrying many thousands of
persons to River View. A remarkable thing
about her record Is the fact that In all her
long career not a passenger was ever In
jured aboard her.
About two years ago the steamer was
withdrawn from the River View route and
sent to Baltimore. where she has since been
lying. She has been replaced on the river
by the steamer Queen Anne.
