There is, therefore, question of tact for
the United States not to put herself for

however, from the bottom of her heart
she desires to see ended. 1t is evident
that If the European powers were IN

Speaking on the subject of China, Pres
ident Taft is stated to have said that the
United States would naturally defend It's
interests, remaining at the same time
faithful to the double principle of tho
maintenance of the integrity of the Ce
lestial Empire and of the open door.

| In regard TO Mexico, President Taft re-
piled that everything would be done TO
re-establish peace there adding that the
United States would not permit agita-
tors TO prepare q civil war on United
states territory.
Our bankers, merchants and citizens
have been already greatly embarrassed
by the persistent troubles. We have no
hostile project against our neighbors, but
desire to maintain order"
Continuing, President Taft said:
ION the eve of the opening of the Pam
anna canal it is of importance to see the
people to the south of our frontiers en-
joy the heathful tranquility necessary
for the triumph of the great work about
to be finished and to see the countries
in the vicinity of the isthmus in perfect
security rather than have the spectacle
of unceasing revolutions and counter rev.

that he had accomplished good work

The President expressed appreciation
of Frances welcome to his arbitration
proposition and praised Ambassador JUS

his adhesion in the name of France to
this "beneficent arbitration principle
which will accentuate the solidarity of

ADVANCE IN STEEL.
Cos. One Dollar a Ton More in Some
And $1.50 in Other Cases.

New York, Nov "a simultaneous
advance in the price of steel bars by the
United States Steel Corporation and the
Republic Iron and Steel Co, the latter
one of the largest of the Independent
producers. was announced, today. For
immediate delivery bars have gone up 81
per ton at Pittsburg basis For future
delivery the increase amounts to $3.50.
More than ordinary interest attaches
TO the increase by reason of the testimo-
ny offered by Judge Gary before the Sem
ate committee on interstate commerce
today. Chairman Gary was quoted as
saying that many manufacturers were at
the moment selling below cost and were
threatened with bankruptcy if the situa-
tion continued.
So far as could be learned, no price
advances in other products are immedi-
ately contemplated.
