I'VE owe S900,000,000 of interest

THE present policy of the secretary
of the treasury is to all intents, in
times Of peace adding to the interest
bearing debt of the people $15O,O0O,-

100000 needed for the construction OF
the Panama canal should be taken out
of the s24O,0O0,000 in the banks and
not be raised by the bond issue. AS
to the $100,OO0,0OO which is proposed
to be raised by debt certificates, do
not approve Of the plan at all. First
because the money IS worth nVe 10
six per cent interest and no one is
going to buy a government note that
draws but three per cent interest.
Second because the purpose of the
three per cent note is to realize mon

the money arising from the sale to
be deposited in the national banks

TIE KASHIM.4 EXPLOSION.
Ihirty-one Men KIIed-Ameracdn
Sym pathy Expressed to Japan.

Washington. Sept. 1S.-The State Department
was advised to-day Of the accident on the Jap
anese battleship kashima in a cable dispa'ch
received from Mr.. Dodge American charge
danaires at Toxic. He said that the japanese
government had officially announced that
through an explosion of shells on the Kashlrna
Ihlrty-one men had been killed and eleven
wounded. No other details were given. Acting
on instructions from the department Mr. Dodge
has expressed to the Japanese Foreign once
the regrets of this government.
President Roosevelt sent a letter through the
State Department to Ambassador Aok as the
personal representative of the Emperor or
Japan. expressing his regret at the accident
which had cost the lives Of SO many brave men,
and recalling with gratitude the fact that japan
had been among the first to tender her sympathy
when accidents similar to that which occurred
on the Kashima had befallen the American

lowing dispatch TO Captain Dougherty. naval
attache ar Toxic: Convey to Ministry of Marine
the expression Of the United States Navy's
deep sympathy for the loss of life in the
kashima accident"
Because Of the great interest in turret explo-
sions as a result of the recent accident on the
Georgia. the naval officers here Immediately
sought information to the causes of the eX-
plosion on the Kashima. but they were not able
to obtain details. Some OF them expressed the
belief that all the facts will never be known
because the Japanese officials clothe such acci-
dents with absolute secrecy in order TO avoid
exposing any of the weaknesses of their mill
tary and naval establishments, especially II
there is any possibility of foreigners prohting
by the information gained from an official re-
port Of an accident to the extent of changing
the mechanism of their own ships. 1t Is recallco
that once q great japanese battleship lay Tor

Kashima explosion one of the ordinary
sort, or mere bareback" that fact might be
officially announced. The japanese shells are
charged with the remarkably high explosive
known as shinose. which is akin TO the Engilsh
lyddite, and naval officers here say that this
is more or less unstable compound and likely
to deteriorate in time. so as to become sell
explosive. This theory would account for the
