OFTEN DENIED DEAL
C0NSUMMATED AT LAST

Station on Lower California
Coast; Secretary Root is
Credited With Concession.

IBy Morning Journal Special Leased Wire1
Mexico city, Nov. 16.-Mexico has
ceded Magdalena bay, on the coast OF
Lower California, to be used FOR the
purpose of a coaling station by the
United States navy This is conslu-
cred the first fruit of the recent VISIT
OF Secretary Root to the republic. The
announcement of the cession OF the
west coast harbor which has been used
for years by ships Of the United
States navy for the purpose of target
practice was qualifidely substantiated
by the state department tonight when
the secretary of foreign relations said
that the United States would be al
lowed two coaling ships at Magda-
lena bay for a period of three years.
provided a like concession was made
to the government of Mexico. At the
state department II was admitted that
the question of a coaling station for
the United States navy was one of the
important questions discussed by Sec
retary Root and President Diaz. The
latter recommended that the coaling
privileges be rendered to the United
States for a period of five years. Ten
days ago a session of the senate was
held for the purpose of considering the
matter and IL was amended as above.
When an official of the state de-
partment was asked IL the matter of
naval yard and Notifications entered
into the agreement he replied that
these arrangements were not specially
covered by the treaty Just ratified by
the state.

Rosenthal Here Tonlaht.

Much has been written about Rosenthal,
the great pianist who comes to the JEFF
ferson theatre tonight, but there has
never been much said about his home life
which is especially interesting. He spends
a great deal of time in Vienna and at
Ischl but 1t is at his charming little
house at Abazzio. near Trieste that one
sees him at his best. There he lives in
secluslon with his beloved piano, and
spends from eight to ten hours daily in
practice He is an early riser, and after
taking his matutinal plunge, he imme-
dlately proceeds to the instrument. Seated
at a comfortable chair, he receives WIS.,
itors, chats and transacts his business
without even allowing his finger to wan
der away from the keyboard. His mo-
ments of recreation are spent at billiards.
This he varies with the American game
of poker at which he is quite proficient.
He learned the latter during his first
visit to America, and has since introduced
it all over Vienna.
