TRAIN PLUNGES
 INTO 4 RIVER
FOUR KILLED AND REMARKABLE THAT so MANY ESCAPED FROM
 THE SUBMERGED CARS.
Passengers Broke Windows in the Cars, crept Through and Swam
 Out of the Stream.

Camp Douglas, Wis. Sept Flour persons were killed ill the wreck of passenger train No 10, on the Chicago, St Paul Minneapolis and Omaha rail- road, which plunged in the river near Camp Douglas today A bridge had been washed away Twenty-six per, sons we're injured, six of them seri- onsly.
 Every car. including the sleepers with passengers still in their berths. was hurled into the stream, whose waters, augmented by the cloudburst of last night. made it torrent Panic stricken occupants of the sleeping cars. clad only in night clothes, es. capped through broken windows The smoking car was carried down stream. but all its occupants escaped.
 The dead:

 The train had passed safely over the bridge a short time before but was Jagged at Tunnel. because a washout further on had made the track impossible, and was ordered back to Camp Douglas so that the passengers might have breakfast
 Meanwhile, the Lemonweir, flooded by cloudburst several miles up the valley, had torn away the bridge and. unwarned. the engineer ran his train into the river
 Many of the injured are women and children, and railroad men regard 1t as wonderful that so few lives were lost. considering the number of pas sengers on the train and that every car went into the stream

New York, Sept "A large force of armed guards which has been sta toned around the John D, Rockefeller estase at Pocatincp Hills. near Tarry- town, for the last two weeks, was os- abolished because of death threats re. ceiyed by MT Rockefeller himself and members of his family. according to the World today
 There have been numerous disor- ders among foreigners employed on the estate, hut it is said that this is not the main reason for the precau- .tions which MT. Rockefeller has taken. Eighteen negroes, deputy sheriffs and a squad of detectives, all armed, con stitute the guard.

situaflon Was Expected.

Washington, Sept 2.--When inform. cd tonight of the announcement that 1 the British government would make l formal demand upon the United States for arbitration of the dispute over tho Panama canal tolls, Huntington Will son, acting secretary of state. said he had no comment to make.
 That such demand would be made formally had been expected in the state department ever since the sec ond note from the British government. on the subject.
 Judging from the attitude of this government, the opinion here is gen. eral that the United States will not yield to the demand for arbitration of the question of it's right to relieve the .coastwise shipping from tolls in the Panama canal without a prolonged diplomatic struggle.
 In some quarters the opinion is main tained that the demand will be flatly declined.
 In the last note from Great Britain, presented to the state department week ago by the British charge, 1t was set forth that If a careful reading Of the Panama act should justify the inn pression caused by first perusal. the British government should find 1t necessary to ask that the question be submitted to The Hague tribunal
 It is expected that the basis for the state departments primary deelination to accede to this request will be the fact that as the American eoastwiae trade has for many years been barred by domestic law to all foreign ship ping, 1t cannot be claimed that British shipping is to be discrminated against by the proposed canal regulations. which, at this stage, do not apply to foreign commerce.
 It will be pointed out by the state department that so far as commerce is concerned, British and American shipping will be on terms of perfect equality in the use Of the canal.

 Montpelier, Mt, Sept. 2.--One of the most interesting political campaigns Vermont has experienced in years closed tonight and tomorrow is ex- pected that between 65.000 and 10000 voters will decide between five candi- dates for governor
 Vermont is considered a stauneh re- publican state but successful candi- date for governor must receive a ma jority of the votes or else the election must be decided by the legislature Whether the active fight of the pro- gressiye party, led by Colonel Roose- welt, ex-Scnator A ].

GREAT BRITAIN'S APPEAL TO THE HAGUE MAY BE PROMPT
 " DECLINED.
WHO WILL RUN THE CANAL?
Notice of Appeal to The Hague Is Duly Received by the United States Who Has Privilege of Refus-
 ing to Submit Question.

Beverly, Mass, Sept. 2.-The an- nouncement that Great Britain will appeal to The Hague tribunal to set tie its claim of violation of the Hay Pauncefote treaty by the Panama ca nal act came as surprise to Prest- dent Taft.
 He had heard reports that such an appeal was contemplated but was of tire opinion the matter would be taken up in the usual diplomatic way
 The president was not ready tonight to make an expression about the ap- peal to The Hague. He had no offi- cial word from the state department and did not expect to consider the case until he reached Washington on Wednesday
 It was said decision might not be reached until the return of Secretary Knox, who is on his way to Japan. MT. Knox is due back in this country early in October. The president is known to place great reliance upon Mir. Knox's judgment, and is hardly likely | to make such a decisive step withoul consulting him.
 1t was pointed out here tonight that Great Britain's notice of appeal does not mean that the matter must go to i Tine Hague. The United States has as much right 10 refuse to submit to ar
 bitratjon as Great Britain has Ito ask it.

forious process. Now, by a triumph
of creative chemistry, it is possible
to manufacture it in England from
English-grown products.
The history of synthetic or arti-
ficial rubber is among the most fas
cinating romances of chemistry
During many years scientific men
have labored to produce an artificial
substitute for rubber, and again and
again the rumor has gone forth that
the goal haad been reached. Bitter
disappointment invariably followed,
until people became quite skeptical
about any new announcement con-
cerning artificial rubber. Either the
new compounds were worthless imi-
tations of rubber or they were so
costly to produce that they were i'm
practicable.
At the present juncture it is i'm
possible to say what the effects of
the new discovery will be without
incurring criticism for exaggeration.
Taking the points already estab-
lished by Professor Perkin, we have
his authority for stating that syn
thetic rubber can be obtained from
British products at cost of about
one shilling a pound Imported raw
rubber has an average value of four
shillings pound, and in times Of

RUBBER FROM NEW SOURCE.
Artificial Product Now Successfully
Made From Potatoes.

One of the most far-reaching and
startling triumphs ever achieved in
industrial chemistry has been gained
by a group of English scientists after
a most strenuous contest with Ger
man rivals. The practical result of
the discovery announced last week
by Professor Perkin of Manchester
University is that rubber can be COM
mercially manufactured in this coun-
try from starch derived from corn,
potatoes and other homegrown veg
etable products.
A phenomenal increase has taken
place in the demand for rubber all
over the world, and it has rapidly
advanced in commercial Importance.
1t is computed that the value of the
rubber now annually produced is
4O,OOO,000 pounds, and of this the
United Kingdom takes more than
half, for which last year it paid 26,
100000 pounds.
Hitherto rubber has been a natur-
al product derived from rubber plan
tations in various tropical and sub
tropical countries by slow and la

famine" much higher prices have
been paid.
1t must be understood that the
discovery is only emerging from the
laboratory stage, and before syn
thetic rubber reaches the commercial
stage many serious difficulties may
have to be overcome. Tires made
of synthetic rubber have already
been tested privately, with good re-
suits, it is stated, but a great deal
has yet to be learned about the quail
tiles of the new material, while as
regards its regular production at
competitive prices and in commercial
quantities we know very little. The
problem is an immense one and it is
not wholly solved yet, but it is reas-
