ma Canal and Pacific Nations
VIII Be Asked to Join.

SEATTLE, Wash, Oct. 19.-That
San Francisco has made preliminary
plans to hold worlds fair in commem~
grafton of the completion of the Panama
canal was the statement made here by
Col. j. A. Filcher, executive commits
sioner from California to the AlaskaYu-
kon-Pacifc exposition. Speaking at a
farewell banquet given by the state com
missioners to the exposition officials, Col.
E'ilcher said:
1T is said that the completion of the
banana canal will double the worlds
commerce and will bring the Occident
closer to the Orient If this is so, the
United States government should add
million or two to celebrate the event.
The question is where shall this event
be celebrated. San Francisco thinks she
should have it Preliminary plans pro-
vide that the United States government
shall provide a cruiser which shall carry
a delegation appointed by the President,
the governors of the western states and
the mayors of it's great cities, and that it
shall visit every country washed by the
Pacific to invite participation. If this is
carried out we shall not have to look to
European countries"
San Diego, Cal, has also expressed an
intention of holding an exposition at this
time.

DISCOVERY OF BAY RE-ENACTED
IN MERRYMAKING WEEK
ON THE PACIFIC.
FOREIGN WARSHlPS THERE.
Jackies from Six Nations in Parade Led
by the United States Regu-
lar Soldiers.
DRINK TOAST TO THE PRESIDENT.

SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Oct. 19.-Re
joicing over her rehabilitation after al
most complete destruction by earthquake
and fire, San Francisco is making merry
today with guests summoned from all the
world to participate in the festivities OF
a carnival week. Ostensibly to commemo-
rate the discovery of San Froncisco bay
by Don Gaspar de Portola, the celebra-
ton in reality is more in honor of those
who have rebuilt a greater city on the
ruins of the old.
The warships of five nations joined
with those of the United States i'll wei
coming Portola on his re-arrlval today,
and he was greeted on shore by many
thousands of citizens of all lands. For
five days the carnival spirit will pre-
vail, and by day and night the town
will be given up to pleasure.
De Portola Returns"
Although the day opened under leaden
skies and with light rain falling, the
clouds broke soon, and the sun shOne
brightly on the decorated city, having
boarded the revenue cutter Golden Gate
and gone outside the bay at dawn, Don
Gaspar De Portola, unprecedented by
Nicholas COverrunias, descendant of
the Spanish settlers of the state entered
with his guard of honor, the Golden
Gate soon after 10 o'clock. The en-
trance was made to the booming of
guns from the forts and the assembled
ships of war.
Ihe naval contingent consisted of the
United States cruisers st. Louis and
Albany, the gunboat Yorktown, the ma
val militia training ship Alert, the rev
enue cutter McCulloch, and the torpedo
destroyers Whipple, Truxton, Hull,
Perry, Goldborough, Preble and Law
renee.
Immediately south of the fairway oc-
icupied by the American fleet lay his
British majesty's fleet, composed of the
armored cruiser Bedford and the sloops
of war Algerine and ShearWater. Next
to the British war craft were anchored
the Japanese cruiser ldzuma, the Italian
Noord- Brabani and the German cruiser
Arcona.
Parade Is Cosmopolitan.
No more cosmopolitan parade was
ever seen on this coast. First came the
United States regulars, then the Amer
lean blue jackets, leading the sailors and
marines of Great Britain, Holland, ia
pan. Germany and Italy. Don Gaspar' S
personal escort consisted Of the POrtola
dragons, a mounted company Of sixty
men in the glittering armor and accou-
trements of the time of Portola, the real.
AT historic Marshall square, the process
sion passed in review before the army
land navy officers of six nations. The
parade ended at Union Square, where
the golden key to the city was presented
ito Don Gaspar.
The toast proposed by President Taft
to the rebuilt city was drunk. Don
Gaspar Portola was then presented to
Queen Virgilia, who will reign during
the festival.

TALK FREIGHT RATES.
Representatives of Trade Organizations
Protest Against Campaign of
Railroads.

DAYTON. o., Oct. 19.-Representa-
tives of trade organizations from ST.
Louis, Chicago and other western cities
are holding meeting here today to
make protest against what they de-
clare is a campaign on the part of rail-
roads for general advance in freight
rates.
The meeting follows a preliminary con-
ference held week ago. in this city.
attended by representatives of trades
organizations of several cities. The OBJ
iect is to combat the arguments for
higher freight rates as made in pam
phlet recently issued by the chairman
of the trunk line association.
This pamphlet, in short, makes the ar
gument that the purchasing power of
railway earnings is less now that in 1897
and that therefore freight rates should
be advanced at least 10 per cent.

HIGH COURT CANNOT
DECIDE DIVORCE LAW.
Supreme Tribunal Refuses to Take Ac-
tion, Declaring 1t Has No Juris-
diction in Suit.

WASHINGTON, D. c., Oct. 19.-An
opportunity to decide a nice point in di-
vorce law has been lost. The supreme
court dismissed for want of jurisdiction
the famous case of David Mackenzie,
who was condemned to Jail in Chicago
for contempt in failing to pay alimony
to his divorced wife, GRANGE Mackenzie.
The proceeding involved the novel
proposition that a husband who is re-
quired to pay alimony to his wife is not
subject to the jurisdiction of the courts
whsre she lives, if he has established a
residence elsewhere, even though he be
temporarily within that jurisdiction.
Laboring under the requirement to pay
his abandoned wife $15 per week. Mac
Kenzie left Illinois and went to Idaho,
where he became a citizen. Returning
afterwards for temporary stay in Chi
cago. he was arrested and imprisoned
for contempt of court because Of his re-
fusal to make payments as required.
Both the trial court and the supreme
court of the state refused to grant him
relief and the effect of the federal SUI
preme courts refusal to entertain his APP
peal leaves him subject to the tender
mercies of the Illinois courts.

traying Christ, was of peculiar interest
to the Israelites, and was always spoken
of in their holy books as the shekel of

FROHHAN APPROVES CENSORS
Stage May Have Them ANY Day.
He Says.
Agrees with Manager BurnhaEi's
Attitude that Some shows Are
Orgies Of Indecency."

New York. Fen. NJ would not be at
all surprised Il a stage censorship were
established one OF these days said Dan
lei Frohman, one OF the half dozen lead
ing managers Of New York
Nor would I object 10 a stage censor
at all In fact believe that most man
ayers would welcome such an institution. -
Mr. FTOhman was discussing the ten
denotes OF the modern stage in his Office.
IN the Lyceum Theater Building. in con-
nection with the interview with Charles
Durham. published yesterday.
But I would not have a single censor. -
said Mr. Frohman. II think that power
should be divided among three men-men
OF wide knowledge and wide outlook.
Such men would not deprive the public
Of the privilege OF seeing a great play
because II might contain single re-
grettabie incident
On the other hand. there are but three
