ENGINEERS WILL BUILD.
Canal Builders Viii Also Erect Forti-
fications at Panama.


Washington - The construction of
the Notifications along the Panama
canal is to be done by the same en-
gineering organization which is build
ing the canal itself. Such decision
has been reached by President Taft
Major General Leonard Wood, chief of
staff of the army, and other officials
interested. In commenting on the de-
cision, General Wood said it was de-
sired to avoid duplicate organizations
Of engineers in the same territory.
5a A. reduction Of several millions Of
dollars in the total estimates for. ap-
propriations for the military. estab-
lishments, including rivers and harbors
expenditures, as compared with the es-
Inmates of last year, has been deter
mined on by the War department.
Major General Wood laid the final
draft of the estimate before President
Taft at Beverly last week. General
Wood, said that the president had ap-
proved of the estimates, with few
changes, and that they were now ready
for submission to congress through the
secretary of the treasury. One fea-
ture of the estimates calls for the con-
struction of permanent buildings in the
Philippines for the use of the army,
rather than temporary structures, such
as have been the rule.

Lawvers Decline Fees

New York-Several attorneys, asked
to defend some of the men indicted for
murder in the first degree in connection
with the lynching of Carl Etherington,

the hands of the court. These men
said they were opposed to lynching.
At length, one legal firm accepted the
appointment of the court. Nearly all
of the So persons indicted in connec-
tion with the disorders here on July 8
last were formally arraigned in court.

CLOSED SHOP LEGAL.
Judge Refuses to Issue Injunction
Against Unions.

St Louis - The opinion of Judge
Smith Mcpherson. who denied the ap-
plication of c. W Post, of Battle
Creek, Mich, for an injunction to re-
strain the American Federation of
Labor officials and Buck Stove &
Range company, of this cityp from en-
tering into closed shop agreement,
was filed in the United States Circuit
court here. Judge Mcpherson decid-
ed the case in chambers at his home in
Red Oak, la.
The tentative agreement, the ratifi-
cation of which Mr.. Post opposed, the
court says, was reached some six
weeks ago.
Judge Mcpherson continues:
complainant then knew of it. He
has remained silent until the last few
days, when he filed his bill of com
plant asking for the injunction. He
has given notice of this hearing to no
defendant. Many of them are accessi-
BILE and no doubt would have been pres
ent had they been notified.
Restraining orders should not be is
sued except on notice to the defendants,
and then only when irreparable harm
will follow if such restraining order is
not issued. l utterly fail to see
wherein the harm can come if this re-
straining order is not issued"

West to Call Own Congress.

st Paul-That a meeting of the
Western Conservation congress un-
doubtedly will be called soon was the
statement of Judge Frank Short, of
California, in the course of the session
of the National Conservation congress
here. The statement came after many
unverifed reports that sentiment fa-
voring such a congress was being
worked up by delegates from the Pa
cific slope. "It might be called i'm
mediately," Judge Short said, "were
it not for the fear that members of this
congress might look upon it as hostile. "

Washington - A substantial victory
for Grta Britain in perhaps the two
most important points, a consolatory
triumph for the United States in the
other five points, with a prospect of
another arbitration later at the in
stance of the United States govern
ment, is the way the decision of The
Hague tribunal in the Newfoundland

The decision eliminated the right of
the United States to share in the maxi
ing and enforcement of reasonable
regulations governing the fisheries in
the disputed territory, and it is that
qualification reasonable" that may
permit this government to reopen the
question. ~

GENERAL NEWS OF NATIONAL HAPPENINGS
COTTON CROP COMES LATE:
Falling. off in Gnners' Reports is Not
Regarded as Serious.

Falling. off in Ginners' Reports is Not
Regarded as Serious.
Washington-The number. of bales
of cotton ginned to September /, from
the growth of 1910 was 356, 824 bales,
round bales counted as half bales, ac-
cording to the report of the census
bureau just made public. The 1909
total was 388, ,242 bales, the 1908,
402, 1929 bales and the 1907, 200,28
Statisticians of the census bureau do
not consider the falling off in the fig
ures of the first ginning report to East
ern states as significant as they might
appear. They attribute the decrease
to the lateness of the crop rather than
to any cause which in the end would
affect it's volume. Without. having any
other definite information, they expect
material Improvement in the future
reports. The season has been unusu-
ally good in Texas, which fact accounts
for the prospective larger crep there.
Purchases of Egyptian cotton by
American manufacturers for the first
half of the present year were only
about half the amount taken during the
corresponding period last year. The
figures of the foreign trade of Egypt,
just received from Consul D. R. Birch,
of Alexandria, show that the cotton
exported to the United States aggre-
gated only $3,945,012, as compared
with 81, ,208, 1872 for the first six months
of 1909. The other important items
of exports to this country all showed
substantial increases.

plant at Pittsburg. The German press
used turns out 21S to tons an hour.

COOL TOWARDS ROOSEVELT
Socialist Mayor of Milwaukee Gives
No Reception.


Milwaukee. Sept. 8s-The Germans
had their day with ex-President Roose-
welt today.
Beginning the day with tiff with
Milwaukee's Socialist mayor, Emil Sci
del, who is German, Colonel Roose-
welt put in the scheduled hours of his
visit here by roaming about the city at
will, making his own program as he
went.
He inspected the city's trade schools,
took an automobile ride to Whitefish
bay, summer resort on the lake
shore, near Milwaukee, and addressed
two huge audiences tonight. He went
late to his car to start early in the
morning for Freeport, ILL.,, where he is
to speak tomorrow, and for Chicago,
which he is to visit late in the day.
The Milwaukee Press club had the
colonel in hand. In honor of the day
the club got out the first and last edi-
tion of the Big Stick, newspaper de-
voted exclusively to Colonel Roose-
velt's affairs. In it there was letter
by Mayor Seidel, explaining why he
would not serve as a member of the
committee to welcome Colonel Roose-
welt. He considered that something
which the colonel had written about
Socialism was unkind and said that the
colonel could not expect him to well
come him.
Before he had his breakfast Colonel
Roosevelt issued reply, telling the
people that he would prefer to have
them read what he had written rather
than what the mayor said about what
he had written.

it the College. either at commencement

sion, Col Cushing was elected perma-
nent chairman of the committee OF

and plan outlined, but this will be
subject to change if better plan is
suggested.
Mr. Cravens and Col. Cushing stat
ed that there is much enthusiasm
among members of the Alumni associ-
alton on the subject and every one
who has been heard from has en-
dorsed the plan. A letter was read at
the meeting from Col. P. L. Lions Of
Temple. one of the most prominent
bankers in Central Texas, and a
strong friend of the College. who
pledges his efforts in any way possible
to make the movement success. Col.
Downs visits the College every year,
and endeavors to keep in close touch
with all that it is doing.
It Is believed that this movement
will cause the largest meeting of the

of the committee of nine will be in

ing has his office.
