WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. H..
An interesting precedent was cs-
tabliShcd by the Secretary of St1tc
and Mrs. Knox Thursday cycninr,
when they invited no less than fou;
ambassadors to meet the President
and Mrs. Tart ut dinner, the first IN
the annual series given by cabinet
members for the chief executive.
This was somewhat Of an innova-
ton, as here nrOrc the members OF
the diplomatic corps have met the
President at dinner Only at the an
nual diplomatic dinner at the White
House.
There IL an unwr!t on law that the
President ana the first lady OF the
land shall not accept general invita-
lions. They may dine formally only
with the Vicc-prCsldcnt and at the
homes Of the cabinet ministers, and
never at an embassy or legation, as
these premises a7c extraterritoria!.
Occasionally they have been known
to dine informally with intimate
friends but these occasions have
bcop few and cp,ire,v u,omci,l
Until the Roose.clt administration
there was also an unwrittcn law

CANTON SITUATION
 MOST ALARMING.

Hong Kong. March 12.-The situation at Canton, where revoters, under Lux. a brigand chief, are trying to oust the city and provincial governments, is re- garded by local consul authorities as most alarming. European missionaries have been ordered to quit the city.
 All available river vessels are being pressed into service to bring refugees to Hong Kong. Several British boats in Canton are keeping up steam ready to depart there instanter. The power of the gunboats stationed off Canton is felt as they are cleared for action.
 Fighting at Canton begin with an attack by brgands several days ago. It has continued necessarily in. the suburbs. The attack became serious when soldiers in the forts mutinied and surre ndered the forts to Luk's men.
 The invaders equipped themselves from thesarsenal and with modern guns and ammunition took possession of the admiralty building.
 The number of persons killed or seri-' ously wounded thus far is estimated at between 100 and $50.

ATLANTA STILL WORKING
 FOR REDUCED POWER RATES

reductions to 3 cents for lights and 1ls cents for power are still pending be- fore the railroad commission, but it is a part of the agreement that if. the com promise is accepted this petition shall be withdrawn.
 If this should be done the railroad com- mission would stop it's Investigations into the value of the companys plant which are now conducted at the expense of the city, though the city would be required to foot all bills which have accrued to date.
 Tho withdrawal. of this petition would leave the. railroad commission in some what of a predicament, for there are other petitions pending along the same line filed by individuals. In it's own case the city furnished the money for the n- vestigations. but when it comes to the individual petitions, neither the petitioners nor the commission has the money to pay the expense of making the necessary n- vestigations, srf r3- 4,
 Even though the city should withdraw it's petition. the commission would have to make some sort of an investigation based on these individual petitions for cheaper current and cheaper gas. About the only way it could get at the matter would be through evidence acquired from individual witenesses who might be sum moned for the purpose.
 So there appears to be no doubt that the commission will have to act, no mat ter what the city council decides to do.

Atlanta, March 12.-(Special. )-Atlanta has not yet compromised with the Geor- gia Railway and Electric company on tue question of electric light and power rates. though there is an indication that coun- ci will adopt at it's next meeting the ten tative agreement reported by the commit tee.
 The compromise was held up in the regu- lar meeting of council Monday on motion of Alderman John McClelland, who Is can didate for mayor, and who has as the principal plank in his platform a munich pal electric plant.
 MT. McCleland takes the position that the city will make a mistake to accept thls compromise when he believes great deal more can be secured by fighting. The reductions agreed to by the company amount to about 22 per cent. The maxi mum rate for lights is reduced from to cents and for power from to Az, with minimum monthly bills of s1 for lights and 50 cents per horsepower for power.
 This, however is not to go into effect until the power manufactured by water Is brought into Atlanta by the Georgia Rail- way and Power company. But it is stated this company's lines will be in the city from Tallulah Falls before the first of next year.
 In the meantime the citys petition for

Dispatches Conflicting

Dispatches to the state department to- day from Ambassador Wilson at Mexico City were partly reassuring and partlS disconcerting. Mir. Wilson said the re- cent proclamation of President Taft was now apparently understood in Mexico and any fear that it meant the recognition of the belligerents had died out Mir Tafts attitude, the ambassador said, has had beneficial effect.
 The most alarming report made by Mr- Wilson was to the effect that many Amer jeans in the western part of Mexico were so destitute that they need help to set out of the country. Consideration prop ably will be given by the state department to the best means to get them out by way of western ports.
 Consular representatives today indicated that Japottan in Jalisco had revolted: that Tapachula in Chiapas is isolated; that tine Juchtecos Indians have been checked and that the tampico district is quiet

AGAINST
 FREE SUGAR BILL

New Orleans March 12.-Louisiana pro- test to Congress against the passage of the bill putting sugar on the free list was expressed at mass meeting at the auditc rum of the winter garden here to- night in which Congressman Oscar Un- derwood of Alabama. chairman of the ways and means committee of the House, was severely criticised in addresses and set of voluminous resolutions unanimously adopted.
 sThe auditorium was well filled and nearly every sugar planter of promi- hence in the state was in attendance. Addresses were made by Mayor Martin Behrman. II. N. Phar of St. Mary s parish Donelson Caffery. son of the late United States Senator Caffery. James D. Hill of this city presided.
 "rhe million tons of sugar produced in Louisiana is necessary to supply the de- mands of the markets of the world. :" said the resolutions. and it's loss would. through the law of supply and demand, increase the price of sugar, which would mean untold profits to the refiners into whose hands would be placed its sole distribution to the ultimate consumers =
 The criticism of Congressman Cnder- wood by MT Caffery was one of the liyeliest features of the meeting, follow ing many references to tariff and free trade and the theory of the democrats
 Whether from the standpoint of pro- lection. which If does not seek to abolish for others, or of free trade, which if perverts and mutilates for Louisiana and the beet growing states. the Underwood bill is a hlunder and an outrage" said MT. Caffery.
 After keeping up under tariff rates which had fed as high as s1e,O0O,OOO a year to the steel trust. s1OO. GOO 900 to the sugar trust, S100.000,000 to the makers of wooden cloth, s75,0OO, 900 to the dear Cubans. s75,000, ,000 to the dear Hawaiians, after inveigling us into buying Sl75,000,000 worth of protected iron and steel for our buildings from Mir. underwoods lucky Birmingham constituents. is the tariff to cut off sugar and beets and let others get all the protection?" asked MT Caffery.
 He said the ground on which the democrats support the sugar tariff is that 1t is the best revenue producer and that the national policy which built up this industry. the annual out put of which Is close to s10O, 900 and nearly million people dependent upon it for support, "a high national obliga- ton arises against the abandonment of that policy on a theory or whim, on a base pandering plan for votes in an election"

THREE JURORS IN
 CRAWFORD TRIAL Difficulty Experienced in Securing Jurors to Try
 Woman

New Orleans, March 12.-When court adjourned late today three jurors had been selected from a panel of 69 sum moned for the trial of Miss Annie Craw- ford, under indictment for murdering her sister Eliza. with poison last Sep itember. A second panel of 200 was drawn. the sheriff being instructed 70 have the talesmen in the court room when the trial begins at 10 o'clock to- morrow morning.
 r Opposition to conviction on circum- stantia evidence and 70 capital pun ishment for woman resulted in tales 30 being examined this afternoon with only one juror being secured out of that number
 Heavily yelled and wearing deep mourning. the Crawford woman. who Is but 25 years old, took her place ri the court room. She Kept her features concealed beneath the folds of the veil as the attorneys for the state asked each talesman whether or not he had scruples against the imposition of the death penalty.
 The charges against Annie Crawford grew out of the discovery that her sister, Eliza, died of morphine poison ing, following closely the deaths of Annie Crawfords mother, father and another sister, under mysterious cir cumstances.
 Although suspected of the murder of her other relatives the crawford wom- an is only charged with her sister S murder. The state will endeavor to prove that her motive in causing her sisters death was to collect insurance money.
 The state will also attempt to prove that the defendant collected insurance money on the lives of her father, moth CT and sister Mary.

 HEARD IN TRIAL Begin Prosecution of Sugar
 Trust Officials

Freeman Produces Records Showing Loan by Which American Com pany Obtained Control of the
 Philadelphia Refining Co.

New York, March 12.-The first of three hundred witnesses subpoenaed by the government in the sugar trial' were heard Noday after United States District Attorney Wise had obtained with Nie declaration that he would prove "a cofs tinuing conspiracy" to violate that clause of the sherman law prohibiting restraint of trade-a clause which the prosecutor declared was based on the mosaic com mandment against covetousness.
 Unusual Group
 The defendants in this criminal pro- ceedings made an unusual group, con- spicuous in it being the aged John Par sons. former counsel for the American Sugar company, who is S3 years old. The district attorneys denunciation did not ap- pear to upset the serenity of any of the defendants.
 Two Witnesses Examined
 There were two witnesses today, Joseph Freeman, secretary of the American Sugar Refining company. and Thorn Kissel, son of the late Gustave Kissel, who 1t IS all leged was the agent for Adolph Segal III negotiating the loan of s1,25oOoo, through which it is charged the American com pany obtained control of the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining company.
 Freeman produced many records, 1hciud- ing entries showing the loan, but said ne had been unable to find an alleged agree ment between Gustaye Kissel and segal regarding the loan. large number of let- tefs, which the American company re- fused to give up until ordered to do so ny the court and fined $500 for contempt, also were introduced Mir. Wise said eVehtu- ally they would throw great light 'oh the inside workings of a great trust
 The government called on the witness to search the file of any letters that might have passed between members Of the American Sugar Refining company ana David Stetson of Philadelphia, cousin or Chairman Thomas, who, MT. Wise alleged was one of the men who played a prom inent part in keeping the sugar trust men carefully informed as to Segal financial condition.
 The witness said the letters MT. Wlse wanted were not in the files. Thorn Kissel produced several Of ms fathers papers, including check books covering the period when the $l, zoo0 loan was negotiated After kissels ap- pearanee court adjourned until tomorrow.
