Department are ample, declares Sec
retary McVeagh in a statement is

ma Canal less the amount already
issued the bonds will only be issued
as required"

of unissued Panama bonds and
100000, 900 of unissued 3 per
cent. certificates.

ent situation warrants immediate
steps to safeguard the Government
by securing authority for the bond
issue no decision has been finally
reached as 10 issuing any amount OF
the bonds, and a change in the tide
of the revenue might make II un-
necessary to put any OF them on the

Teheran Especially. - Mohammed
All, Shah of Persia, was dethroned
and the Crown Prince. Sultan Ahmed
Mira, was proclaimed Shah by the
National Assembly, composed of the
chief Mujtehids and the leaders of
the Nationalist forces, in the pres
ence of an immense crowd in Parlia-
ment Square.
Mohammed Ali has taken refuge
IN the Russian summer legation, at
Zerzende, where he is under the
protection of detachments of Cossacks
ana Sepoys, dispatched to Zer-
zende by the Russian and British
diplomatic representatives The new
Shah Is yet in his minority, and Azad
VI Mulk, head of the Kajar family,
has been appointed regent. Sipah-
dar, one of the most active leaders
OF the movement, has taken Office as
minister of war and governor of Te-
heran.
General Liakhoff, through whose
negotiations with the Nationalist
the surrender was effected, was es-
corted by mounted Bakhtiari rifle
men to the Parliament Building and
was greeted with loud applause by
the people. He was informed that
he might remain temporarily in CON-
mand of the Cossack brigade, provid-
ed he strictly obeyed the orders of
the war minister. This arrangement
was communicated to the British and
Russian legations.
The shops and private houses oc-
cupied by the Shah's soldiers have
been plundered and the residence OF
the manager of the Indo-European
Telegraph Company has been looted
but no other homes of foreigners
were invaded.
With the exception of desultory
firing by a handful of loyal Bakh-
tiaris in lane near the British lega-
tion, Teheran is quiet. The towns
people are taking quite calmly the
sudden change in rulers, while the
Nationalists are resting, after four
days Of incessant fighting in the
streets of strange town.
Russian and British legation
guards are stationed at the Russian
summer legation, where the Shah has
sought safety, and the Cossacks have
placed guns around the building as
precaution against a possible attack
by the Nationalists, who, however,
declare that they have no intention
of taking a step which might cause
serious complications.

GIRLS AS FOOTPADS.
Rob Victim OF Dime At Point OF
Revolver.


Chicago Especially. - Two sisters,
the elder 16 years old, held up
Charles Mattel in South Chicago and
with an empty revolver forced him
to give up 10 cents under penalty
of death.
Mattel gave up the dime and then
ran to a nearby police station. He
returned with police escort, which
captured the holdup girls. When
taken before the sergeant the sis
ters treated the whole affair as a
joke, laughingly recalling the nerv-
BUSINESS of their victim.
Between giggles they gave then
names as Helen Derowska, 16 years
old, and Bertha, 13 years old. They
admitted taking the money from
Mattel under threat to kill him, de-
claring they wanted an ice cream
soda. The girls, both of whom are
small, stout and good looking, said
they recently had visited a Wild
West show and had become imbued
with the idea that robbery was an
easy way to obtain money.

Naples Especially. - The officers
and men Of the American warships
in this port united in paying solemn
military honors to the late Ensign
Hugh Kerr Aiken, of the armored
cruiser North Carolina, who died as
the result of injuries sustained in an
explosion on board the cruiser. The
religious ceremony was conducted on
board the North Carolina by the Rev.
DR.. Greenman. Capt. William A.
Marshall, commander Of the squad.
ron, delivered a touching address,
highly praising Ensign Aiken, who
was victim to duty
From an investigation which was
instituted by Captain Marshall it was
! learned that Ensign Aiken attempted
an investigation of whether gas was
/ generated in the coal hold.
Wishing to face the risk alone, he
instructed the sailors to keep be-
hind him. When .e entered he was
not able to detect any odor of gas,
and one of the men carrying light
ed candle, came forward.
Unfortunately he slipped and his
arm dropped, which brought the
light in contact with the gas that was
lying in low level. Ensign Aiken
received the full force of the ex-
plosion which followed. He was
dragged out by the men, but died
some hours later.
An alarm was Immediately given
after the explosion, and the CON-
manding officer with a force of men
stamped out the fire, which otherwise
might have communicated to the
| powder magazine.
Aiken was picked up in a pitiful
condition. He was terribly burned
about the whole body and head.
The North Carolina was anchored
at the Santa Lucia Harbor, half a
! mile from the docks, and so the ex.
| plosion passed unnoticed.
Aiken was carried to the infirm.
, ary of the cruiser, and the accident
only became known OF his death.
The body will be embalmed and sent
to New Orleans.
