eRUBSTAKES CHINESE;

LOS ANGELES, March q. - Sam
Yet, perhaps Americas richest Chi
nese miner, came into town today
from Nevada prepared to divide his
fortune half and half with Sheriff
William A. Hammel. Several local
mining men who know the Chinese

he was a prosperous Nevada ranch
man with plenty of money and a
handsome white wife After she died,
Sam Yet began gambling and soon
lost everything.
Hammel, who had known the C5'
nese rancher a long time and believ-
ed in his integrity and ability, loan
ed him $1,000 for a new start. The
Chinese went prospecting again, loo

man Goethals of the Isthmian canal
commission would drive inhabitants
from the Panama canal zone and let
it grow up a jungle without clear
ings sufficient to permit an enemy to
congregate or a foe of this govern
ment to exist.
He suggested this plan today to
the senate committee on canals and
the house committee on appropria-
tions as a means of safeguarding the
canal property.
The first ship will pass through
the canal in August or September
1913, said Goethals. The committees
are greatly interested in Cocktails ac-
count Of his interview with the Ger
man emperor, who advised strong for
LITIGATION of the canal.
The colonel opposed the exemption
of coastwise vessels from tolls on the
ground that it would keep down the
revenues and also because coast cit
les already had lower rates than in
terror cities. He said the bulk of the
benefit of such an exemption would
go to the steamship companies.
He also opposed the proposition
that railroad ownership of stock in
steamship companies be prohibited,
giving as his reason that such an III.
hibition would reduce receipts.
