Powers Of This Government.
ADMITS DICTIONARIES FREE.
Acting Secretary of Treasury En-
couraging Learning Foreign Speech.

To encourage acquisition of the foreign
tongues by American people, James F.
Curtis. acting secretary of the treasury,
has authorized all English foreign Ian
guage dictionaries to be admitted free
of duty.
The tariff act places on the free list
all books and pamphlets printed chiefly
in any language other than English. The
board of general appraisers at New York
recently decided that a certain shipment
OF F'rench-English and Italian-English
dictionaries could come in free. Some
stickler. for the law counted the words
In the books and informed the Treasury
department that there was good ground
for appeal to the Customs Court because
they contained more English than for
eign words.
Mr. Curtis interpreted the will of Con-
gress as being to encourage the learning
OF foreign languages. and held that all
such bona fide dictionaries may escape
the usual duty Of % per cent ad valorem

That Is Only Condition Upon Elk.
hibit at Panama-Pacifc Expo.

The fact has developed that the only
condition imposed by Great Britain upon
her acceptance of the invitation by the
American government to participate in
the Panama-Pacific exposition. was the
desire to secure adequate undertakings
from the managers OF the exposition as
TO the .sufiiciency of the space and the
character of accommodations to be SET
apart for the British exhibit.
The only foundation that Is known to
exist for the idea that the British govern
ment has permitted the negotiations re-
gdrding the Panama canal tolls to infiu-
ence its attitude toward the exposition is
said TO be expressions OF editorial opinion
in some of the British newspapers. 1t is
pointed out that informally the British

LONDON, September 14.-Jules Verne's
imaginary trip Round the World in
Eighty Days" will be riyaled in peril and
excitement. if not in speed. by Peter r.
Hawker, who started Tuesday from 13
st. James street to drive his motor car
round the world via Peking and Japan. a
feat never before attempted.
Mr.. Hawker's car is the 130-horsepower
Fiat driven by Lancier in the 1908 Grand
Prix race, and it has been fitted with
three tanks, able to hold 100 gallons of
petrol Altogether it weighs exactly two
tons.
With the aid of mechanic named Al
len. who accompanies him. Mr.. Hawker
hopes to cope with any difficulties that
may arise, and he estimates, roughly,
that the journey from London to Peking
should be done in seventy days. if no Sc
rious accident occurs. He will go by
Paris, Berlin and ST. Petersburg, to Mos
COW. but after Moscow the well kept
roads of civilization will be exchanged
for wilderness devoid In many parts of
even the roughest tracks. Mr.. Hawker
is tall. fair. slight young man, who is
embarking on this adventure for the fun
of the thing. Siberia, where many
bridges are scarcely strong enough for
pony traffic, has few terrors for him.

housed in the tent hangers and the engi-

laid for putting the aeroplanes on the

spectators along the edge of the river,

REBELS GET CONTROL
Of CUSTOM HOUSES
Probable Cause of Interven-
tion by United States in
Santo Domingo.

One element above all others which
may move this government to actively
intervene in Santo Domingo is the re-
ported seizure by the rebels of some of
the custom houses on the border be-
tween Haiti and Santo Domingo, which
were being operated under American
control. The closing of these custom
houses has not only cut off the revenue
which. under the treaty, is to be col
lected to meet the interest charges and
other Indebtedness of the Dominican
government, but it has opened the door
to wholesale smuggling from Haiti,
including consignments of arms and
ammunition for the rebels
Explicit Treaty Provisions.
So explicit are the treaty provisions
regarding the custom houses that
there can be no question, not only of
the right. but of the duty Of the Ameri-
can government to use any degree of
force necessary to regain possession
of them.

Powers of This Government.
Almost accidentally. and as an Incl

was developed that the State Department
was disposed to construe its powers
very narrowly. and that there would
be no interference by the United States
between contending factions so long as
no attempt was made to actually OBJ
tain possession of the custom houses.
Since that moment there has been a
great growth of revolutionary activity
in Santo Domingo, and 1T is now
