When Receipts increase the Rates Arc
Reduced.

Paris, France.-In reply to reports
cabled here from America stating
that a canal rate wac was predicted in
Washington and that this would in
volve all the maritime nations of the
world, the Suez Canal company au.
thorized the following statement:
For many years the Suez Canal
company has pursued a policy by
which every time its dividends have
increased the tolls have been re-
duced."
The Suez Canal company at its an
nual meeting in Paris on June 3 re-
ported an increase of sS66,00O in its
receipts compared with the preceding
year.. the total for 1911 being $27,-
762, 900. This, it is said, at the meet
ing, justified a further reduction in
the duty on vessels which would 60
into force next January.
The reduction in tolls amounts to
10 cents per ton.

Of the Salvation Army. is dead. He
was born at Nottingham in 1929.
The veteran Salvation Army leader
was unconscious for as hours previ-
Gus TO his death. The medical bull
letins had not revealed the serious
ness of the generals condition, which
for a week past. it is nov admitted
was hopeless.
Twelve weeks ago General Booth un-
derwent an operation for the removal
Of a cataract in his left eye For two
days after the operation indications
justified the hope of the generals re-
covery. Then, however. septic poison
ing set in and from that time. with
the exception of occasional rallies, the
patients health steadily declined. The
general recognized that the end was
near and often spoke Of his work as

Mrs. Bramwell Booth, gave their I'M
renting attentions to him both night
and day.
The aged evangelist died al his res
idence, The Rookstone, HadleywOod,
some eight miles from London, where
he had been confined to his bed ever
since the operation. Present at the
bedside when the end came were Mr..
and Mrs. Bramwel! Booth and their
daughter and son. Adjutant Catherine
Booth and Sergeant Booth; the gener-
ais youngest daughter, Commissioner
Mis-. Booth Helberd, and Commission
er Howard, Colonel Kitching and DR..
Wardlaw Milne.
Public interest now centers in the
question Of a successor to the late
commander. Under the constitution
Of the Salvation Army, the general
dominates his successor. That Gen
erai Booth did several years ago, plac-
ing the name in a sealed envelope,
which was deposited with the Saliva
ton Army's lawyers, with instructions
that it should not be opened until aft
er his death. While nobody knows
what name the envelope encloses. the
general belief among the Salvation
Of Bramwell Booth, who for 80 years
has been its chief Of staff.
Where General Booth will be buried
has not yet been decided. While ev-
cry English member of the Salvation
Army is convinced that no man was
more worthy of interment in West
minister Abbey, 1t is not expected this
honor will be awarded to General
Booth by the abbey authorities. 1t is
the general belief that the command
er-in-chief's last resting place will be
alongside that Of his wife, who 81
years ago, was buried in Abney Park.
Stoke Newington.
London, Eng. In the presence
of all the Salvation Army commission
ers and the principal officers in Lon
don at the international headquarters
on Queen Victoria street, General
Booths testament, entrusted to the
army's solicitor % years ago, appoint
ing the late commander-in-chief's son
Bramwell Booth. to succeed him, was
opened and read.
Bramwell Booth, who has been chic
of staff of the Salvation Army since
1880, accepted the succession formally
with much feeling. His speech wa:
q prayer and the scriptural reading
was followed by an impressive serv
ice. Mrs. Bramwell Booth and Mrs
Booth elberd and other we'll known
army leaders, were among the partici
pants.

URGES REPRLSALS.
German Authority Says Powers
Should Stand Together.

Berlin, Aug. 27.-Sharp measures OF
retaliation against the United State
for it's action in the Panama canal
tolls question are urged by Count Rev
entlow, the noted authority ON inter
national and naval law.
The Hay-Pauncefote treaty was
signed by only two powers" he says,
but economically it affects the ship:
ping interests of all nations. Grea,
Britain may therefore be regarded as
in a certain sense holding the mandate
from all these nations. In the tolls
question the United States is not
seeking to protect any justifiable in
terests or national safety but simply
and solely to satisfy its greed by I'M.
fairly grasping an advantage over 9th.
err maritime powers. On this point
there is a solidarity Of interests
among these nations. 1t is for them
to consider whether they shall not
institute reprisals which will convince
the United States that it's policy OF
unequal treatment Of the maritime in
terests is bad business"

HELD n EARTH rs HOURS
PEkiN, ILL, LABORER WAS PRlS-
ONER IN QUICKSAND UNDER
ILLINOIS RIVER.
Fast--Was Pulled Out by Der
rick and Lives But Short
Time.

Peoria, Illinois. - After having
been Imprisoned for 25R hours at the
bottom of a 35-foot caisson beneath
the surface of the Illinois river in the
excavations being made for a new
railway bridge near Pekin, H., F. J.
Schmidt was hauled to the surface
with a derrick and expired within five
minutes.
Thursday evening, at 5 o'clock
Schmidt with three fellow workmen
started to leave the bottom of the
caisson where they had been working
under compressed air. His three com.
paniCns reached the surface, but the
huge caisson suddenly sank into Q
strata of Quicksand, pinning Schmidt'a
legs beneath it as it went down. He
was dragged into the quicksand, held
by the tremendous weight Of the great
steel tube, up to his neck.
Scores Worked at Rescue.
Scores of %rescuers, working one at
a time. in shifts which changed every
few minutes, worked frantically for
hours to dig him out. All night long
and all day they tore and dug at the
shifting earth. Schmidt was given
nourishment. At times he chatted
with his rescuers. Once he smoked a
cigarette. While apparently suffering
no pain he shrieked with agony when
workmen attempted to haul him from
under the great caisson by the Shout
ders.
Finally it was decided to try a der
rick. Opiates were administered by
a physician and a rope attached to
the unfortunate mans body. On a
signal to haul away, Schmidt's body
was torn from its trap and hauled
to the surface. He died without re-
gaining consciousness. Both legs were
terribly lacerated and several ribs
broken.

DEADLOCK HOLDS
LEGISLATURE UNABLE TO CONE
TO AGREEMENT AFTER HOURS
OF WRANGliNG.
BILL MAY CAUSE FIGHT.
deficiency Measure and AmendmenD
to Penrose Resolution Expected
To Delay the Adjourn
ment. -.

Washington, ID. c. - A few score
weary members of congress, and an
impatient president of the United
States confront an unprecedented
governmental situation following Sat-
urday nights prolonged and fruitless
struggle to adjourn the session OF
congress. The outlook for this weeks
sessions of house and senate promised
an even mere chaotic legislative con-
dition than obtained in the fight that
began Saturday morning and contin-
ued until nearly church time Sunday.
Disguised with adjournment failure.
many members Of the senate took
early trains for their homes. Senator
Penrose predicted that there would
be much less than a quorum in the
senate the early part Of this week.
ard house leaders were satisfied tn
that body would be nearly 40 mem
bers short OF the number necessary
to transact business.
Fillibuster May Be Renewed.
The double flibuster which compell-
ed the abandonment Of the plan to
end the session Of congress is ex-
pected to be renewed when the houses
re-convene.
Senator La Toilette made known to
friends that he would insist upon d
record vote on the adoption OF the
PenrOse resolution for an investiga-
ton of campaign contributions OF the
Standard Oil company in 1904 and OK
the correspondence between John ID.
Archibald, George W.. Perkins and
members of congress.
Senator Chamberlain who led the
other senate tilibuster, the object OF
which was to force the house TO agree
to the payment of $500, 900 OF old
state claims, will have the support OF
many senate Democrats if he renewS
his insistence TO hold congress until
these claims are paid. The house lead
ers are determined to fight the claims
until December if necessary.
Trouble Ahead.
Either Of the senate filibusters hold
trouble for any plan of adjournment.
If Senator La Toilette should insist
on a record vote, it would become
necessary to secur a quorum. la
such an event he could hold the SEN
ate indefinitely because it would again
be unable to make an adjournment
agreement with the house.
The general deficiency %appropria-
ton bill is agreed to on all points
except the $500, 600 of claims demand
ed by Virginia, Maryland, Oregon
and Texas and the extra months pay
for employees Of the house and SEN
ate. Chairman Fitzgerald of the house
conferees, renewed his declaration
that under no circumstances wOulL.
the house cOncede the payment OF
any Of these.
A bare quorum Of senators was in
Washington up to the adjournment
failure, and less than a quorum voted
on each proposition brought before
that body during the night.
Half a dozen senators slept in their
chairs through the latter part of the
session, others wandered YEARLY
about the senate wing of the capital.
from the chamber to committee rooms
and back again. About three o'clock
the senate restaurant ran out of food
and the senate went hungry.
