SENATE PASSES
CANAL BILL BY
DECISIVE VOTE

* WASHINGTON, Aug. 9-The Pan
anna canal administration bill, proyid-
ing free passage to American Ship,
prohibiting railroad owned vessels
from using the waterway and authr-
izing the establishment of a one man
government when the canal is COM
pleted, was passed by the senate to-
night by vote of AZ to Is. The pro-
vision for free tolls, which was fought
out in the senate Wednesday, was
indorsed again just before the passage
OF the measure.
Attached to the bill as it passed
the senate were two important amend
ments directed at trust or railroad
control of steamship lines. The first,
BIZ Senator Reed, would prohibit ships
owned 5y an illegal indus trial com
bination from using the canal. and the
second, by Senator Bourne. would
force railroads to give up water lines
that might otherwise be their coInpe-
titors if 1t were proved that they we're
sitting competition. 3 '~..-

ships might pass through free if their
owners agreed to sell the vessels to

course, there was a good deal of
once or twice it looked as though
someone would get hurt, but the driV-
ers all kept their heads, and there
was only one brush that brought two
cars abreast at the point where the
spectators were most plentiful. There
were a good many delays between
events, but this was to ba expected,
considering that the men. who COM
peted have not been schooled to the
promptness and rigid discipline which
is enforced at meetings of the kind
elsewhere. The next races should go
with more snap, and probably the

more smoothly on a second attempt.

The principal events from the spec

No Radical Tariff Revision nor

Henry Clews Of New York, in his
special circular of August 10, attrib
htes failure OF the stock market tc
respond to sound Intrinsic conditions
partly to the absence of leaders or
vacation and partly to continued
dread of legislation regarding the tar
IF and trusts. He proceeds to say:
''In this connection, however, II Is
highly assuring that candidates OF
the two leading parties, one of which
is sure to be elected, are both mod.
crate in their ideas. Republican and
Democratic alike are agreed that
tariff revision downwards Is impera.
tive, but both parties are committed

ject In order TO avoid disturbing con
sequences to. business. Moderate ac-
ton is also promised by both candi-
dates In the treatment of large cor
porations. Neither party fayors trust
smashing. There Is every reason,
therefore, to anticipate the handling
of these two great problems in a man
ner that win be least disturbing II
these promises are faithfully fulfilled,
IL should mean a decline of extreme
radicalism, which proved such SER
ious drag upon business enterprise
for the past year or two. In the
West the disposition to cut loose from
politics is much more pronounced
than here. This Is because that sec
ton of the country is more largely
dependent upon crops than the East,
which relies chiefly upon the initia.

men understand upon what lines to
operate we may expect fresh re-
vival of enterprise. Among the timid
there will be more or less hesitation
Until after the election. or even until
