TOLLS ARE FIXED
FOR PANAMA CANAL
MERCHANT VESSELS ARE TO PAY
s1.2o PER TON NET OF AcTU-
AL CARRYING CAPACITY.
U. S. BATTLESHIPS EXEMPT
Rates Practically the Same as Those
to Be in Force at the
Suez Canal.

Washington.-President Taft has
issued a proclamation fixing the rates
that the foreign shipping Of the
world shall pay for passage through
the Panama canal. The proclamation
made under the authority Of the canal
act, passed by congress in August, es'
tablishes a merchant vessel, rate OF
s1.2O per net ton Of actual carrying
capacity, with a reduction Of 40 pei
cent. on ships in ballast.
The provisions Of the proclamation
are as follows:
II. On merchant vessels carrying
passengers or cargo, s1.2o per me-
vessel ton-each 100 cubic feet-oi
actual earning capacity.
"2. On vessels in ballast without
passengers or cargo, 40 per cent. less
than the rate of tolls for vessels with
passengers or cargo.
"3. Upon naval vessels, other than
transports, golfers, hospital ships and
supply ships, fifty cents per displace
ment ton.
~. Upon army and navy transports
golfers, hospital ships and supply
ships, s1.2O per net ton, the vessels
to be measured by the same rules
as are employed in determining the
net tonnage of merchant vessels.
1.-The secretary Of war will prepare
and prescribe such rules for the meas
urement of vessels and such regula'
itions as may be necessary and proper
to carry this proclamation into full
force and effect
American coastwise shipping was
exempted from toll payment by con
gress. 1t was to this provision of the
act that Great Britain automatically
protested. No reference to the Incl
dent was made in the presidents proc
lamation.
American naval vessels are exempt
ed without specific mention, either IN
the act Of congress or the proclama'
ton, because the authorities believed
It unnecessary to explain the useless
less of payment from its navy depart
ment pocket to the one belonging 10

TURKEY SUES FOR PEACE
Porte Sends an Envoy to the Bulga.
rian Headquarters.

Constantinople.-Tha the porte has
entered into direct negotiations with
Bulgaria for an armistice is confirm
ed. Nazim Pasha, the Turkish com
mander-in-chief, has received instruc'
tons to open communication with the
Bulgarian generals, and he has sent
an envoy to the Bulgarian headquar
ters.
The porte appears resolved upon
this course, owing, on the n hand
to the delay of the powers in hand
ling the mediation proposal, and, on
the other hand, to the divergence OF
views the proposal has occasioned
among the powers.
London.-The porte on the advice
of Russia has instructed Nazim Pa
sha. the Turkish commandments
to apply to the Bulgarian commander
for an eight days armistice with a
view to opening direct negotiations
for peace. This decision seems to
show that Turkey has little hope OF
being able to hold the Tchatalja lines
against the Bulgarian commanders
advance.

CARRIES STATE
LAST REPORT SHOWS THAT
SOUTH CAROLINA CONTRIB
UTES 41,742 VOTES.
COUNTIES TO BE REPORTED
Several Counties Have Not Been
Heard From.-The Result OF h
Vote on Bond Issue For Asylum
Seems to Be In Doubt.

Columbia.-The general belief that
Woodrow Wilson had carried the
State of South Carolina was justified
when the official returns were can
yassed in the majority Of the coun-
ties. With Al counties reported, six
OF the number being incomplete, Gov.
Wilson had received 31,742 votes. He
had several times a majority, his op-
ponents receiving only scant support
as follows: Roosevelt, 1928; Taft,
$50; Debs, ITO.
The state board Of canvassers in
many counties have NJ completed
their work and on that account the
reported vote for governor and on the
question of a bond issue for the asy-
lum is much less than that given for
presidential electors, votes for the lat
ter having already been tshnlated by
the federal boards.
In Spartanburg, where a large vote
was cast, the state election commits
sioners had not completed their WORK.
In Edgefeld the state commissioners
had not as yet met.
With only % counties Of the "A re-
ported Blease received a vote Of 3d.
1872 against 200 for Britton, the So
cialist candidate.
The result of the vote on the bond
issue and the constitutional amend
ments can not be forecast. The vote
on the amendments seems to be close
while a tabulation of the vote on the
asylum bond issue in 80 counties
shows a wonderfully close race. With
l 4 counties to hear from officially
the vote stands at 1858 for the issue
and 1885 opposed thereto.
The results in the races for presi-
dent and governor a not be changed
by the unreported counties, but 1t
seems that any Of the amendments
or the bond issue car be affected.

BRITISH DIPLOMAT DESIRES 70
COMPLETE HIS LITERARY
WORK. g..
Official Announcement Made - Sir
Cecil Arthur Spring.Rice to
Succeed Bryce.

Washington. - James Bryce, the
British ambassador to the United
States, has rendered his resignation,
and will return to England.
While the news that Ambassador
Bryce is to retire will be received
with regret in official circles and by
the country generally, it is not wholly
unexpected. There has been no
break in the harmonious relations OF
the distinguished Englishman and his
government, but it has been an open
secret for some time that Mr.. Bryce,
advancing in year, desired to sur
render his post and give entire at
tention to the completion Of the lit
erary work which has occupied so
large a part Of his life. His book on
South America, written since his tour
of that country two years ago, is Just
off the press, and he is about to begin
a work covering his recent tour OF
Australia and New Zealand.
London, England.-Announcement
that James Bryce, ambassador to the
United States, has resigned and that
he was succeeded by Sir Cecil Ar
thur Spring-Rice, British minister to
Sweden, caused surprise here, but
general interest in the situation was
overshadowed by the Balkan crisis.
Sir Cecil is regarded as n OF the
ablest men in the diplomatic service.
He is g. years old. He has served at
Stockholm as minister since Septem-
Der /, 1908. In 1880 he was acting
third secretary in Washington and
was appointed acting second secre-
tary at Washington to act as secre-
tary to the British delegate to the
international maritime conference, AL
gust II, 1889, and, after serving for
a time at Brussels and Toxic he was
transferred to Washington in 1893.
He was charge d'affaires at Teheran
In 1900 and minister to Persia in
l906-0S.

PARTY.
REVISION OF THE TARIFF
Presldent-Eleet Has Gone to Bermuda
For a vaeatIon-Messase to the New
Jersey LesisIature.-Hls Decision Is
Strongly Approved by All.

New Yokr. - Goernor Woodrow
Wilson announced that Immediately
after his Inauguration as President Of
the United States, he would call an
extraordinary session of Congress to
convene, not later than April Is, for
the purpose of revising the tariff.
The Pr%esident-elect sailed for Der.
muda for a vacation and will return
December 16. To set at rest In the
meantime speculation as to what he
would do with regard to the tariff
revision, he issued the following state
ment:
II shall call Congress together in
extraordinary session not later than
April Is. l shall do this not only be-
cause I think that the pledges of the
party ought to be redeemed as prompt
ly as possible, but also because ]
know it to be in the interest of bust
ness that all uncertainty as to what
the particular items Of tariff revision
are to be should be known as soon as
possible"
Beyond this brief announcements
the Governor said he had nothing fur.
Their to say. Most Of the opinions. he
had received from public men seemed
to be in favor of an axtra session, he
declared.
The Governor did not intend to u
press himself about an extra session,
SO soon after his election. Although
he has favored the idea Of an extra
session because the present; arrange
ment would not bring the new Con-
gress into session until IL months af.
ter itse election, he had expected to
spend more time in ~ascertaining pub
lie opinion. With the time to be con-
sumed in discussion the Governor felt
that if an extra session were not
called, the benefits Of tariff revision
would be postponed for practically
two years.
