PRESIDENT TAFT AT
WATERWAYS CONGRESS-.
Secretary of War Also Inter-
eSted in River and Harb0r Work.

WASHINGTON, July 19.-With Presi-
dent Taft the central figure as an en-
tnuslast1c advocate of waterway i'm
provements. the meeting here of the
National Rivers and Harbors Congress
on December 8, 9 and 10 next, promises
to be the most notable gathering in the
history of that organization.
In addition to President Taft. who
has accepted IN invitation to address
the gathering, Secretary of Wa.
Dickinson, Governor Judson Harmon,
of Ohio, and Count Won Bernstorff, the
German ambassador, have indicated a
desire to participate.
Secretary Dickinson is greatly i'm
pressed with the necessity of deepening
the rivers and harbors. Upon him. as
Secretary of War, Would fall the duty
of carrying oue any concerted plan for
waterway Improvements. Governor
Harmon takes his place withS other
progressive spirits in favor of the
movement. Count Won Bernstorff
comes from the country that probably
knows more of waterway improve
ment than any other, her rivers and
harbors enjoying a higher grade of de-
velopment than any in the world.
The question of devising ways and
means has been debated for a year, and
opinion seems to be approaching agree
ment upon the matter of issuing bonds.
The idea OF the organization is that
poste-ity is to reap the benefit and
that posterity should accordingly pay
for it. Attention is directed to the fact
the Panama canal is being built
on bond issues. as also are great pri-
vate enterprises.

BOND DEPRECIATION IS
PROBLEM.T BE SOLVED.
New Panama Canal Issue to Be
Protected by Circulation Tax.

WASHINGTON, July 19,-How q
protect from serious depreciation out
standing United States bonds is the
problem which confronts Congress in
cor nection with the authorization of a
new issue, and it Is thought that its
solution can only be effected through
some equitable adjustment of the tax
on circulation. The secretary of the
treasury will be authorized to issue
from time to time additional Panama
canal bonds up to 1920, 56s,O2o, bearing
not to exceed 8 per cent. interest.
Under existing laws national bank
/ otes when secured by 2 per cent.
bonds are subject to a tax of one-half
of l per cent. per annum. while cireula
ton based on bonds bearing a higher
rate of interest pays a tax of l per
cent.

High Officers Slain in Cavalry
Charge at MeIilla.

MADRID, July 19.-Official dispatches
today indicated that the fighting yes
terday between the Moors and Span
iards 1t Mslilla was more grave than

Spanish headquarters, swarming down
from all directions and firing their
guns as they approached.
The tribesmen displayed fanatical
bravery and their headlong charge was
only stopped by a deadly fire from the
Spanish batteries. The Moors returned
to the attack during the night, and the
battle is still raging this morning. The
Spanish losses are important. among
the dead being a lieutenant-celonel a

Contestants IN Two Cases
CUNNINGHAM MADE An UMPIRE
Secretary A. J. Curry of Newport
News. Tenders His Resignation, But
the Managers Lay it on Table
Long Drawn Discussions.

The managers and board of dire ctor;
of the Peninsula Baseball league met
at the Young Mems Christian Assoc
citation last night and decided the con
tested games between Hampton and
Fort Monroe and between Hampton
and the Newport News Athletics.
The discussions that followed the
several protests were long drawn out
and the meeting was intensely inter
esting on that account.
The decision was reached to- make
the teams play both of the cOnte sted
games over. This means that Hamp-
ton loses the 4 to 0 victory won over
Fort Monroe, while the Athletics lose
the TO game won over the Hamp-
donians. The fort game was contested
on the ground that Lewis had not
been regularly signed as pitcher b.
Hampton and the directors sustained
his contention. The Athletics contest
was brought by Hampton on the de-
cision of the umpire, who decided that
a runner was out. when the man
should have been called safe" The
claim of the champion nine was sus-
tanned
Mr.. John w. Cunningham former
player on the Hampton team, was
elected an umpire for the remainder
OF the season.
Mr.. A. J. Curry rendered his resig-
nation as secretary of the league, but
the resignation was placed on the
table for two weeks in the hope that
Mr.. Curry will reconsider.

team. will leave today for months

PROPOSED MONUMENT TO STONE
WALL JACKSON.

Discussing a suggestion by cores
pondent Of the Richmond Times Dis
patch that an equestrian statue oi
Stonewall Jackson be erected in Rich
mond, the Iynchburg News remarks
that Il Is strange that such move
ment has not been projected before.
Indeed IL Is strange that all of these
years have passed without public
suggestion that the South should pro-
vide some fitting monument to the
memory OF a man who not only was
one of the foremost leaders OF the
Confederacy. but one OF the greatest
soldiers In the worlds history.
1t Is proper that such a movement
as this should start in Virginia, the
native state OF Jackson and the scene
of the splendid military achievements
which have made his name familiar
to Students of the science of war every
where on the globe. AS the News
says. this movement needs only to be
started and II will take care of it.
self The entire South will respond to
the call with enthusiastic willingness.
This suggestion should be acted up
on by the Confederate organizations
At once. as the public generally natur-
ally will wait for these organizations
to inaugurate the plan. The Daily
Press. and probably every other news
paper In the South. will join in the
movement and give II the heartiest
kind of support.

authorities and compelling tncm 10 al
low grown Japanese to enter the pub
lie schools with the children Of white
American citizens. 1t was explained
that under treaty agreements Win
Japan this step was necessary in or
der to maintain friendly relations with
the yellow nation, II not actually to
avert war. This explanation, while
not satisfactory. served its purpose.
The Californians. very much against
their will, permitted the Orientals to
enter their schools and associate with
their children. and the country at
large accepted the humiliating situa-
ton grumblingly. most OF the people
satisfying themselves with the belief
that any treaty making such a thing
necessary would be abrogated by tnv
powers at Washington as soon as
practicable
In about q year the treaty OF 1904
between the United States and Japan
win expire, and the federal authori-
ties will have an opportunity to right
the wrongs which have been heaped
upon the people Of the Western coast
However, unless there is a strong
popular protest against the making OF
any treaty that may call for federal
interference in the domestic Affairs OF
state. il Is more than likely that
there viii be little change IN the con-
ditions as they exist at this time.
Many things were done during the
lates Roosevelt administration to de-
monstrate that Mr.. Roosevelt and his
associates had little regard for the IN
dividual rights of States. But nothing
proved more conciusiveiy the necesst-
~ for curling the usurped authority
and power OF the government at wash

should be remembered by all the peo-
rle In the country. and it Is not too
