WILSON ENTERTAINS
 ITALIAN COMMITTEE
NEXT SPEAKING ENGAGEMENT IS BEFORE THE PRESS CLUB OF.
 NEW YORK CITY.

Sea Girt, N. j., Sept. 5.zGovernor 5. Woodrow Wilson talked about immi. grafton to delegations of Italians from Jersey City and Brooklyn today.
 T have had frequent occasions re. gently to meet delegations similar to this," he sad, "and it has been a great qualification to me that they all speak in generous language of appre- citation toward myself but also with an extremely broad minded apprehen- sion of what my real position and what my real feelings are"
 The fact of the matter Is that America has been enriched by having the aspirations of some of the finest races in the world brought to her shores. 1 rejoice most heartily in the ciFcunssahces that men Of every European blood have brought to this country their highest aspirations be cause they can't bring these aspira- tions without adding to the aspirations of the country and making the country greater and freer than it would be without them. For myself I have ney- CT felt the slightest jealousy of the right kind of immigration and by the right kind of immigration l mean the voluntary kind.
 The governor devoted himself for the most part to his correspondence today.
 His next speaking engagement Is Monday at the New York Press Club when he will analyZe the three politi- cal parties and their aims.

AMERICA HURRYiNG
 ARMS ID AMERICANS
REQUEST FOR RIFLES AND AM MUNlTioN IS ANSWERED AND
 MATERIALS DESPATCHED.

Washington, Sept 5-Every effort is being made by the state department to get arms and ammunition to the Americans in the Cananea district to enable them to protect themselves against the revolutionists, who now lhickly infest that country.
 Today a request from the residents there was received at the state de- partment asking that 500 rifles i'm Ilnediately, accompanied by 200 rounds of ammunition for each gun. The Americans who signed the re- quest to the state department for arms, were informed today that they could have the 100 guns at Nogales
 and cartridges at Hermosilla, sen some time ago, already accepted fol export.
 The wnapoDs wifi not be permitted tp leave Nogales, however. until g strong guard of federal soldiers oi Irivate citizens is provided 10 prevent the rebels from obtaining them. The guns will have to be paid for by the people to whom they Are given
 The Fl Tigre mining company was today given permission to take across the border 20 rifles and about 4,000 rounds of ammunition 10 be used by the employers of the company in pro- tecting it's property.
 It is probable that the 400 additional rifles. which are to be sent to the citizens in the Cananea district, will have to come form Franl1ford arsenal of the war department, located near Philadelphia. In that case it will take about week to get them to the peo- ple. The Mexican government will be requested to provide a strong escort for the additional rifles and ammuni- tiOn.

ROOSEVELT PRocLAIMS WILSON OF DEMOCRATIC TICKET, MA
 CHINE BossED PRODUCT.
ONLY FASTENED MOVEMENT
People, Says Colonel, Were About Ready to Overthrow Both the Old Parties When He Stepped
 Into the Breach.

St. Paul, Minn., Sept. 5.-iMinnesota heard first hand from Colonel Roose- selt touay hls reasons TOT asking sup port Tor the new progressive party. he colonel spent the day i'll St. Paul and Minneapolis and made three speeches.
 Tonight he resumed his journey westward, With Grand Forks, N. D., as his next stopping point.
 Colonel Eooseyeit's principal ad- dress today was at the Minnesota state lair He declared that the nomination of Woodrow Wilson at Baltimore was arranged by the democratic bosses. ?
 Then he went to Minneapolis and after luncheon given by the Mime sota progressive league. he gave hls views upon the significance of the progressive movement from the stand point of moralst, rather than the politician. 1onignt he made a briel address at the far grounds, where he attended farm dinner"
 T am in this movement said Col onel Roosevelt in his address in Min neapols after the luncheon, because 1t springs, as every great movement  must, froa the conscience ot the peo- pie, The politicians have been bind and deaf, because they have ignored the tact that in the last few years there mas been steady growth of discontent with the slipshod ineffi- oiency in dealing with the great economic, industrial, and political problems of the day
 If have rendered any service 1t has been to bring about the movement a little quicker than 1t would other wise have come. 1 don't think tha, our political expression has represent cd the best that is in us. When we get the proper standards, we will sec that any man who profits by such theft, or condones, it is unworthy of public confidence"
 Colonel Roosevelt, saying that Gov ernor Wilson had said that the demo cratic platform was not platform, asked.
 "Then what is it?'
 He is willing to abandon the pro- gressive state ticket, Colonel Roose- welt told the Minnesota leaders, only if it is possible to take over the re- publican organization bodily. It is understood that decision will be post poned until after the primaries.

FIGURES GIVEN TO SHOW WHY ENGLISH SHIPS SHOULD PAY
 THE AssE SsMENT.
RATE IS BELOW ACTUAL COST
Negotiations Between England and America Over the Situation Will Be Purely on Basis of
 Dollars and Gents.

Washington, Sept. 5.--The letter of Sir William Grey, the British foreign secretary, to the Gateshead Chamber ot Commerce, regarding the, British governments attitude toward the Pan anna canal act, is regarded here as an indication that the negotiations be- tween the two countries as to have a financial basis, the foreign seeretary's argument being that British shipping is to be burdened with an undue pro portion of the charges for the main tenance of the canal through the com plete exception from tolls of American ccastwise shipping.
 In this view. importance attaches to an inquiry now being conducted on the lsthmus by Professor Emery R. Johnson, special commissioner on Pan ana traffic and tolls.
 He estimates that the whole of the American coastwise traffic likely to pass through the Panama canal i'm mediately after 1t is opened will be about one million tons, or little more than 10 per cent of the total tonnage in the years of 1915 and 1916. In the course of five years it is es- timated that this American coastwise tonnage will rise to 1,414.000 tons, but as the foreign commerce will increase in like proportion, the same relation between the two will exist. | On the face of the figures this would indicate that the British anC other foreign commerce would have l 10 bear an additional burden of II t6l. cQnf. 1t is pointed out. however, that { | proportionate share of this burden, il I it did exist. would have to be borne by American ships in the foreign 1 trade, which consequently would be 1 on a precise equality with British ships.
 Professor Johnson also declares the only possibility of the Panama canal securing 8 fair share of the worlds business is to place the tolls below $1.25 per ton, the Suez rate. and has even mentioned a flat rate of one dol lar.
 On the basis of ten million tons busi- ness this would yield an income suf- ficient to meet the cost of operation and maintenance, $3,500,000, allow $500,009 a year for canal sanitation of the canal zone and provide fair rate of interest on the $3.375 000,oo the canal cost, but would not allow for a sinking fund.
 Fundamentally, allowing per cent on the capital invested in the canal and 1 per cent for a sinking fund, the total of the annual charges on the canal are likely to be more than $l5,- 000,000, or about 50 per cent more than the gross revenue from tolls
 With these figures before them and the rate on British shipping fixed far below the actual cost of the service by conditions over which this govern ment has no control, it is believed by the officials here that they will have httle difficulty in showing that the eS- emption of American coastwise traffic from tolls has no influence upon Brit ish shipping and consequently that no discrimination is proposed ill viola tion of treaty rights.
