PANAMA ROAD
SHOWS A Loss
Ever Since Government Began
Operating It Expenses Have
Increased.
From our Regular correspondent.

(From Our Regular Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON. d. c.. January 1.-THE
annual report OF the Panama Railroad,
which has been sent to Congress by Sec
rotary Taft. shows the government OF the
United States as a railway owner and
operator on small scale, and is suS-
gestive as to what might be expected
IL the entire railroad system of the coun-
try should be taken over and managed
by the government. The Panama Rail
way, While under the management OF the
Canal Commission, is run as an independ-
ent proposition, and is paid for all ths
services which it performs for the gov
eminent.
On the other hand, It's dividends, If 1t
earns any, are paid into the treasury.
Conditions on this road are favorable TO
simple main line, with no branches, and
with much of its traffic moving in solid
trainloads from one terminus to the other.
III government operation would show good
results anywhere, il ought to be on this
road.
The report is far from encouraging to
the advocates OF governmental ROADS. IL
shows that, Notwithstanding 4 very large
increase in traffic during the year ending
TO only $322sSl, or S435,357 less than the
previous year. This net income was not
paid into the treasury as a dividend, but
was all required for the Improvement of
the property. IL fell short of what the
commission believed to be necessary for
this purpose and an advance OF $4,000
additional was made from the United
States Treasury. Thus the net financial
result of government operation OF the road
during the year is q charge on the tax
payers of the United States OF $780,
and this is on a road that, under private
management, paid handsome dividends.
The explanation is found in the enor-
NOUS increase in operating expenses,
which have increased steadily ever since
the government took charge of the prop
erty. The figures in this report suggest
that the management of the entire rail-
way system of the United States by the
government would inevitably result in an
appalling annual deficit that would have
| to be made good either by taxation or by
| large increases in charges for the trans
portuton of passengers and freight.

TRADE With CHINA
IS NOW FALLING OFF
Flowery Kingdom Was Over
stocked With Cotton Goods
and Oils.

WASHINGTON, D. c., January IL
That American importations Of cotton
goods into China suffered a heavy falling
off during the year just closed, is the
assertion made In statement issued to-
day by the Bureau of Statistics of the De-
ipartment of Commerce and Labor. Tho
reason for this marked decline In China's
importatlons of cotton products Is due
it is explained. to the fact that the Flow
cry Kingdom bought more of these goods
than she could consume one year ago.
1t is shown that China purchased about
STA. 100000 worth less of cotton goods for
the eleven months ending with Novem-
her last than during a corresponding PEI
Rod in 1905. American importations in
CHINA, the eleven months In 1905. aggre-
gated $s1, 100000, and In the same period
during tho past year they amounted to
only $l100O0O.

portance of the American export trade

for the last year. During eleven months

like period in the past year the exports

HOPKINS DEF ENDS
SENATOR sM00T
Says That Senate Cannot Pass
Upon Senator's Qualifications
or Eligibilities.
QUOTES
BLOUNT's
CASE
Makes an Eloquent Plea That
Smoot Be Not Disgraced and
His Life Wrecked.

WASHINGTON, d. c.. January H.
The first speech In defense of the right
of Reed Smoot to n seat In the senate
was delivered to-day by Senator Hop
kins. Of Illinois.
Mr. Hopkins took the position that Sen
ators were not Federal officers to the
extent that the Senate could pass upon
their qualifications and eligibility, or could
impcach them for high crimes or misde-
meanor II a Senator was to be pun
ished, 1t must be by the State or Fed
eral courts. The Federal officers, he
maintained, were impeachable, and this
Impeachment must be r/r acts committed
as such Federal ofticeA.
The precedent cited was the unsuccess-
ful effort to inpeach Senator Blount, of
Tennessee charged with reasonable cor
respondence with a foreign nation. more
than one hundred years ago. The conclu-
sion then, Mr.. Hopkins said. had never
been reversed. and that was that the SEN
ate had no right to try the case, as SEN
ator Blount was not an officer of the
United States.
Says in Part.
Referring directly to Mr.. Smoot, he
continued:
1T is conceded by the chairman of the
Committee on Privileges and Elections
that Senator Smoot possesses all OF the
qualifications spoken Of In the Constitu
ton itself. 1t Is also conceded, not
only by the able chairman of this com
mittee, but think by ali who are at
all familiar with the case, t'iat Senator
smoot Is not polyganist. and has never
practiced poygamy; that he Is a mnn in
his personal relations as son, husband,
father and citizen, above reproach; that
| in all of the relations of citizenship he
mas lived singulariy pure and upright
life"
lie then asked: why. then, should
| he be expelled from this body, dis
| graced and disbonored for life. stigma
| placed upon his children, his own life
| wrecked and the happiness of his wife
destroyed? He Is a Christian gentleman
and his religious belief has taken him
| into the church OF Jesus Christ of Latter
Day Saints, commonly called the Mormon
| Church,,
| Mr. Hopkins said he felt sure hatfthose
representing the protestants would not
| contend that there was an apostolic oath
| which had been taken by Mr.. Smoot
| which would prevent him from discharg-
| ing his duties as Senator. Mr. Hop
| kins sympathized, he said, with the de-
| nunciation of polygamy made by Mr..
| Burrows in his recent speech. 1t was. he
believed, relic of barbarous age and

he should remain in the Senate or not
