ROBSON PLEADS
 IDENTIFICATION
 PANAMA CANAL
Especial from United Press.)

Washington, Jan. 19.-An impas- stoned plea. for fortifcation of the Panama Canal was made by Repre- sentative Hobson, (Dem.. Ala.), in the House. this afternoon, and following long argument by Representative Kiefer, (Rep., O., in favor of neu- traliZation of the zone.
 Gan anyone cite any case in the history of the world where any na- ton having an important strategic point would not fortify it?" Hobson asked. "The Japanese captured Port Arthur and the reason the Russians lost it was because they did not fore see the necessity.
 '"The gentleman from Ohio talks of the inviolate character of the treaties but I can cite instances where time after time solemn obligations have been disreg garded. The British them selves have violated the neutrality of the Suez Canal and fortified the wa terway.
 ..The Panama Canal is nothing more or less than a water bridge betwe .n two oceans When completed. if it is 'neutralized' it will put every foot of ground on the east side of the Uni- ted States at the mercy of Asiatic powers; and every foot of the west ern coast at the mercy of any Euro pean power. The fortification of the canal is fundamental and necessary to the peace of America
 Hobson's earnestness produced a deep impression on the House and he took his seat amid roar of ap- plause.

UNCLE SAM'S
 PLANS FOR WIRELESS GONE
Wireless Operator Fuller Is Arrested for Theft, But
 Pleads Not Guilty
(special from United Press.

Especial rom united PreSS.)
 New York, Jan. 19-That a blueprint and the diagram drawings of the Uni- ted States governments wireless tele- graph plant had been stolen from the Brooklyn Navy Yard. developed today. Secret Service Agent Scully arraigned Ray Fuller. a wireless operator, be- fore United States Commissioners Shields on a charge of larceny. He accused Fuller of carrying away the papers which contab-ed complete de- tails of the wireless system used by the navy, including all of the improve ments which have been carefully guarded and the possession of which by a foreign power would prove ad- vantageous to it in case of war with the United States.
 Scully said these plans disappeared from the navy yard on December IA. He claimed that the blueprint was later used in connection with a suit in the State courts and that he had succeeded in tracing the theft of the documents to Fuller. It was inti- mated that Fuller acted as an agent for persons desirous of securing pos session of the government improve ments in the wireless field.
 Fuller pleaded not guilty and waived examination. He will be taken to Brooklyn for trial

No Currency Reform
 Bill from Commission
(Special from United Press. ]

Washington, Jan. 19.-"No cur rency reform bill will be introduced and no report will be made by the monetary commission to Congress at the present session." said Senator Money, (Dem., Miss.)( (, a member of the commission, today. Tt would be utterly impossible to have a report ready before the March adjournment The commission in all probability, will present a partial report to Con- gress newt December"
 Another member of the commis- sion said there was no intention of pressing the matter at this session. Ut was MT. Aldrich's idea" he said, ito formulate a tentative plan and have it spread broadcast in order that the subject might have thorough pub- lie discussion. He accomplished that purpose in the statement proposing the organization of the Reserve As sociation of America, which was sub- mitted to the monetary commissi 0n a few days ago and is now being cIr- culated throughout the country
 The fact that no issue will be rais- ed at present in the Aldrich plan, has led members of Congress to take no active interest in the matter Those who are coming back next winter say they will study it during the Con- gressiOnal recess.

 "It is the same,'' he said. "We get what we want. Hellmann & Oller are our very good friends

ities of success.
 Africa has always been, a country of conspiracy, but never has it pro- duced one which promised such far reaching results. Success meant Ger man supremacy in Africa, and the death-blow of all British schemes of colonial expansion. A period of mar tial rule under the iron-shod heel of the Teuton forces would crush out the life of KafIir, Boer and British alike. The golden country would go to swell the Imperial Chancellor's. coffers ill Berlin, while the Cape to Cairo railroad, the child of the brain of the Colossus, Rhodesia, would die in their inception. But these are on- ly some of the immediate results, which by the light of events, we can see would have occurred. There are others which only the brain of a. statesman could estimate

Grave Peril of Crew
 In Furious Gale
fspecial from United Press.

San Francisco, Jan. 19-Fifteen mem- bers of the crew of the steam schoon- CT Lakne are in grave peril off Cape Blanco. A wireless states that the schooner. her machinery disabled, is being driven on Cape Blanco by a fur iOus gale. Two steamers are standing by but because of the hurricane can give no assistance. The Lakme was bound from San Pedro to Coos Bay.
 The sea is running high and the Lakme is waterlogged with her crew unable to control her. In response to "S. O. S." signals received at the Eureka wireless station at ? o'clock, this morning, the steamers Ascucion, Watson, and Argyll hurried to the scene. Owing to the heavy sea, they were unable to run close enough to the disabled vessel to assist her. Lat CT in the morning lifeboats were launched but each time they were swamped. Oil is being poured on the waters in the hope of calming them long enough to take off the Lakme's crew.

Especial from United Press.) ,


 Hamilton, Ont, Jan. 19--At St. Jo- seph's hospital today it was said that the condition of Robert Shiverick. the American manager of the Thomas C.. Watkins Company's store. who was in jured in the Grand Opera House, last night. Is such that his recovery is doubtful. The accident in which he was injured was the most peculiar in the history of the stage. Mikail Mordkin. Mile. Pavlowa and the Inn perial Russian dancers were perform ing before a crowded house.
 Mordkin was yielding his sword in the Dance of the Arabian Nights" Suddenly the blade of the sword be- came detached from the hilt. It de- scribed a parabolic curve toward the audience and struck Shiverick in the head. penetrating the skull. There was a mild panic which was quickly quieted. Shiverick did not lose con- sciousness but staggered to the rear of the theatre and an ambulance was hurriedly called and he was rushed to the hospital.

THE HoWLAND DRY GOODS co.

upon the considerations of this mo- ment when the consummation of the labours of months was to be brought about. All his years in Africa he had sought for the direction that was to lift him from the ruck of from tiersman to foremost position in this new world. He had found it at last; he had conceived the course himself, and now the time had come when the blow was to be definitely struck. All that had gone before was merely the monotony of prepara- tion, Iabour that showed him no re- turn; and, to a nature like his, there had been moments when he had been almost madGened by the delay. Now the recollection of all that past was obscured by the joy of realization.
 He was. consumed by enthusiasm, and accepted the necessity of an oath of fidelity in his forthcoming mis- sion in a manner that was very pleas ant to his comrades. There was no denying his ability in action. What ever his task he would face it. His responsibility in this final stroke of their scheming weighed not at all with him. He thought not of wha. little. A good general might have been more pleased had he displayed less enthusiasm and more thought, but then he was not dealing with to risk all on the turn of a card. Each was working for himself; each had carefully considered his personal po- sition. None of them would be worse haps, the trader, and he was a hnan- cial gambler who would neither feel nor care a straw for the loss so long as he had run for his money.
 The inner history of all political conspiracies reveals a curious similar ity in the manner of procedure. The scheme is invariably vast, and often world-moving, and, in ninety-nine ca ses out of hundred, the small de- tails of organization are lost ill the immensity of the end aimed at. This perhaps is due to the necessary na- ture required in men who embark on such hazardous undertakings It is a bold man that will leap into the arena of the worlds control and pit himself against the banded forces of nations; and boldness does not often go hand in hand with that caution and careful thought for detail requir- ed for achievement. History has shown us that when an individual does appear on the political horizon who combines all these characteris- tics he either achieves or dies young, and, anyway, he leaves his mark on the pages of history.
 Here was a conspiracy of four, backed by the majority of the white settlers in the country, it is true, that calculated to overthrow at one blow all the hundred and one unspoken schemes revolving in the mighty brain of the political hero of the country. The idea was monstrous, yet it's very daring suggested possibil-
