STARR VIE VS. ON
THE PANAMA
CANAL
SAYS 1T is UNDERTAKEN SIMPLY
AS WAR MEASURE.
Declares II Would Never Better CON-
merclaI Interests and Would
Be Burden.

Chicago. Jan 2S.-"If the United
States wants to build the Panama ca
nal, 1t should present to the people
the only legitimate reason for tho
work. and that reason is that 1t Is
undertaken simply as war meas
ure.'
So said Professor Frederick Starr
in an address last night attacking the
government method of carrying ont
its Panama canal policy, He declar-
ed that the canal would never better
the commercial interests of the coun-
try and would always be burden
THE canal will not be able to conf
pete with the Tehunntepec railroad"
he said. This railroad is In the CEN
ter of Mexico. and connects the AT
lantic with the Pacific. 1t can trsns-
fer merchandise cheaper than the ca
nal will.
Professor Starr called the proposed
Pan-American railroad "utopian
dream which never could be realized
He asserted that a railroad from Al
aska TO Cape Horn was simply in air
castle.

COLLEGE STUDENTS ARE
GIVEN TOO MUCH LIBERTY

New York. Jan. 2S.-College stu
dents In this country have too much
liberty. according TO Colonel H. X.
Scott, commandant OF West Point. In
an address last night Colonel Scout
said:
The system is based largely on the
German without regard for the moral
training Of the student. This is going
too far In the direction OF liberality.
The German student. as a rule, has
had a military training earlier; there
Is no such training here. The free
dom of the German system Is for the
man whose habits and character al.
ready have been formed. The Ameri-
can boy, who has not had such forma-
tive training. should have the char
acLer formed for him and not left 20
his individual caprice. The nation
greatly needs larger leaven OF mill
tary discipline, such as West Poirt
gives, TO increase the respect for law
and for the duties OF citizenship. and
believe the colleges ought to fur
nish it,

coming an officer and q gentleman,
has come to an end and the findings
of the court have been placed in the

seem likely, or the findings are given
out by the governor they will not be

There were few last night who did
not believe that Gen. Poole would be
found guilty, but there was a wide d.
vergence as to what the sentence
might be. A great many felt that in
asmuch as the case In the courts had
gone against Poole there would be lit
tie use in making a martyr of him by
dismissing him from the guard II
found guilty, and that a sentence Of
,reprimand would, perhaps, fill the cup
of Justice. There were others who
thought the, best interests OF the
guard would be conserved by Che
elimination OF such a man as Poole
has been shown to be by the testi-
mony, hut these were all idle specula-
tions and the true 'inwardness Of the
verdict can only be known when the
governor speaks. -.
! The last day OF the trial was taken
up by the. recalling of Captain Arm
