CANAL RATE WAR IN SIGHT.
susx Managers Decide to Reduce Tolls
70 All Ships.

to All Ships.
Washington, Aug. 24.-A rate war
which might involve all the maritime
nations of the world. and which would
revolve about the Suez and Panama
canals, was predicted yesterday IN
Washington by officials who have
watched the development Of world in
terest in the Panama canal bill, now
awaiting approval Of President Taft.
According to the report that reached
the state department the directorate
Of the Suez canal has decided to re-
duce rates thru that canal.
In official circles this notice was re-
garded as the first retaliatory step
against the free tolls provision for
American ships thru the Panama
canal.
The announcement Of the proposed
reductions thru Suez appeared in in
conspicuous notices in American news
papers. The notice which aroused so
much interest was to the effect that
after the first Of next year the transit
dues In the Suez canal will be reduced
so centimes, bringing the tolls for
loaded ships down to 6.25 francs. This
Is the precise equivalent of the $1.21
maximum tolls which the Panama can
al act prescribes for vessels passing
thru that waterway.
Prof Emory r. Johnson, whose ex-
haustive investigation Of the financial
aspect of the Panama canal as spe-
cial commissioner for the war depart
ment. formed the basis for the action
of the congressional committee IN fix-
ing the toll rates on the canal, held
that If the Panama project was to be
a success financially and commercially.
its tolls should be lower than those Of
the Suez canal.
This was on the basis that the Pan
anna route would secure at least
minor share Of the shipping moving
between Europe and the Pacific coast
ports Of Asia. Even lower tolls at
Panama. he held would not draw away
from the Suez canal~a large part Of the
oriental trade because Of traffic oppor-
tunities, the price Of coal and other
supplies which have a determining ef-
feet upon the selection Of routes.

coNoREss' FINISH Is TAME.

Final Adjournment Of Lona Session
Veterans Find Less BustIe Than Ever,
Washington, Aug. 25.-Veterans of
i congress failed last night to recall an
other such "tame" ending Of congress
as that which marks the dying Of the
present session, which probably will
close this afternoon. None Of the
feverish haste and hustle that usually
,characterizes the compltion Of legis-
.lation and the passage Of conference
reports on appropriations bills was ap-
parent last night.
Representative Underwood went
over to the senate chamber late yes
terday and reached an informal agree
ment with Senators Penrose and
Smoot to! dispose Of all general legis-
5lation last night leaving only the con-
ference report on the general defici-
ency bill to be acted OF today.
The army bill caused but little de-
bate in either branch, and the confer
ence report was adopted by both
houses during the day. The senate
passed thsagenefal deficiency bill after
. short debate, and conferees will ad-
lust the differences of the two houses
ON this measure today. The postoffice
appropriation bill was the last Of the
measures to pass the senate.
u The general deficiency bill as It
passed the senate carried nearly 412,-
o00. 900, almost double the amount of
the house bill. Many amendments
were adopted during its consideration
Ia the senate.
