LOCK HORNS
ON FREE TOLLS ISSUE
DIVERGENT Views on Panama
Canal Problem Expressed at
American Society Meeting.
OLMEY BACKS U. S. RIGHTS
Can Make What Rules 1t Likes,
He Declares-Others Con-
tend Against Exemption
of American Vessels.

Washington. April 2.-Divergent views
regarding the right of the United states
10 EXEMPT its coastwise vessels from the
navment of Panama Canal tolls were ex-
pressed to-day in papers read before the
American Society OF International Law
Most of the principal speakers agreed
however. with Richard Olney. ex-Secre-
tary Of State. who held that this country
was entirely within its rights, as the
owner of the canal. to make whatever
rules It desired regarding its use
Equally divergent views were expressed
as 10 whether the payment by the gov
eminent Of subsidy equal to the amount
OF the tolls to American ships would be
violation Of existing treaties. The right
10 grant subsidies, when not expressly
prohibited by treaty. was not contro-
verted.
Many of the extemporaneous speakers
opposed the idea that the United states
had a right TO exempt its vessels from
tolls. and contended that such an act
would be contrary 10 all existing treaties
and would bring dishonor on the country.
In his address. which was read because
OF his inability 10 attend the meeting. Mr..
Ouey declared that the all nations
clause OF the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
meant only the customers OF the
canal. and that since a nation could not
be both customer and owner the United
States was not supposed TO be included
i'm the words all nations" He expressed
himself as opposed to referring the mat
ter to The Hague, because all nations
were interested in the outcome, but ad-
vocated an independent arbitration tri-
bunal
1T is clear" Mr. Olney said in his adj
dress. that a nation or a state does not
convey away its property or sovereignty
except by terms that are clear and sus-
ceptible Of no other meaning; and that
where the meaning can be taken 10 favor
the United States it Is the clear right Of
the United States to urge that it be held
that the words all nations do not mean
10 include the United States. However.
II is not necessary TO rely upon this
presumption. as the United States is
owner and can fix such terms as ii
pleases
IF the question is submitted to arbitra-
ton it should not be submitted 10 The
Hague. but to a special tribunal. The
Hague would be partial. as, admittedly,
all European powers are interested in the
outcome

Wants England Consulted.

This view was opposed by Crammond
Kennedy. OF Washington. who main
tanned that existing treaties must be
kept. and changed only with the mutual
consent OF the high contracting parties.
Great Britain. he said. would pay nearly
one-half OF the total revenue OF the canal.
and therefore had the right to be con-
suited. especially in view OF treaty obli-
cations.
Chandler r. Anderson. formerly coun-
sellor for the State Department, insisted
that all discussion OF the toll question
must be limited TO any discrimination
against English shipping and that the
Fundamental question is whether the
rules adopted 10y the United states, under
Article Of the Hay Pauncefote treaty,
as a basis Of the naturalization Of the
canal were intended to apply 10 the
United States, as well az TO all other
nations"
Rear Admiral Charles II. stockton, re-
tired. president OF George Washington
University. was OF the opinion that this
country was expressly included. and
closed with the significant statement that
The best American jurists believe We are
now violating several Of our treaty obli-
cations"
Lewis Nixon. OF New York. was among
those who agreed with Mr.. olney.
Professor Eugene Wamhaugh, of the
Harvard Law School declared there were
many reasons for the belief that the
United States was included within the
meaning OF the clause.

The problem Of controlling whiskey
advertising is one with which Con-
gress must deal, and might we'll be
considered in connection with the pro-
posed Suenpard Kenyon bill That bill,
as we understand it, will not prevent
a man from ordering whisky for his
own personal use, but will aid temper
ance forces in beraking up the blind
tiger business. What we can't under
stand, is that many parents are not
only willing to let the circular letters
from whisky houses come to their
boys but will themselves pay publish
ers of money seeking newspapers to
bring such advertising into their
homes. In other words, they not only
let newspapers that are travelling bar
rooms come to their homes and solicit
patronage, but pay them to do it |!
Such papers as the Atlanta Constitu
ton and Atlanta journal ought to be
too decent to take such advertising,
but if they are not, their readers
should make them SO by refusing pat
ronage until they reform. Progress

TIE SEQUENCE.
Saws the Midland Methodist

Says the Midland Methodist:
"The condition now in HOlston,
from an educational STANDPOINT, Is
notoiug less than "a crisis. There was
a time, not so very many years back,
when we owned a number of high
schools and academies These schools
were for both bows and girls, and they
did excellent work. True, they were
not great financial successes, but they
were self supporting, and were giving
fairly good educational opportunities
and advantages to large number or
boys and girls. But when the State
began to build high schools with free
tuition these schools became less pop
ular. and finally, from one cause or
another, passed out of our hands anu
into the hands of the State. Today
Hiwassee College is all that is left us,
except Emory and Henry College,
where we can send our boys to our
own schools. We still have three fe-
male colleges, besides the privilege of
sending our girls to Hiwassee when
they are not able to 60 to the higher
schools
This is exactly what we have
thought all along, viewing the haste
which the Methodists of this county
used to get rid of Pryor Institute.
There was need in this county both for
higher college and high school,
but some Jasper people thought they
would be ruined if a high school
should be located at any other point in
the county, so as they couldn't have
both, they got rid of the higher col
lege to get the high school.

The public school has closed and it
will bs August before there is another
session This means that some child
rem will lose half years schooling.
If we ha that half dollar tax on
whiskey the News proposed last week,
we would have enough to pay for an
extra month Of schooling anyway.
If we wait for that hosiery mill to
come we will never have it, The on.
~ way is to begin it on small scale
ourselves, sell the product direct to
the consumer ana build up a business
from small beginning.

New Orleans Futures

New Orleans, Sept. 17.-Cotton futures
opened steady at an advance OF 13 TO
II points on sensationally good cables.
The rise in Liverpool was said TO have
been due to unfavorable crop accounts
from Texas and Oklahoma and fear that
labor troubles in Galveston and IN En-
gland would interfere with the move
ment of raw cotton to mills. Buying
in this market in the early trading was
largely sympathetic. The weather map
was wet and indicated more rain in the
Western belt where dry weather is now
much desired. This and the better news
from Washington regarding the Clarke
bill caused some little buying. but the
main source of strength was Liverpool.
At the end of the first half hour 81
business. prices we're 21 10 % points up.
The market became quiet around thg
middle OF the morning but held very
steady tone on a moderate volume Of
business, the advance was well main
tanned and even slightly increased on
some months. At the highest of tbs
morning the trading months were % 10
81 points UP. Longs took profits AT the
r'se, but their offerings were easily abb
sorbed and caused setbacks Of only few
points. The forecast of showery weather
for practically the entire cotton belt was
regarded as unfavorable in the extreme.
Bullish crop accounts were sent In from
important sections of Mississippi. At
noon prices were % to "a points over
yesterdays last quotations.

monopohzed speculative interests In the
opening trading today. The sharp rise
bouyant advance in this market. caused
excited trading. The opening transac-
ton was a lock OF 1900 shares al a,
to ITO 1-8 on a series Of large transac-
tions, establishing a gain of 3-8. 1t
then dropped back point. New Haven
was again weak, falling IA TO new
low record at IS 3-s. Other changes were
small and irregular.
Rapidly Of rise in Reading and weak
ness of New Haven disturbed sentiment
and traders hurried to get out of the
market Union Pacific. Interboro Met.
pfd., Can and the Rock Island stocks
fell to IL under yesterdays closing.
Reading reacted IL and New Haven lost
ala.
Reports OF an Increase in dividends,
involving q. stock dividend, were brought
forward to explain the rise In Reading,
which reached its climax this morning
points higher than a week ago. The
rumors were classed merely as stock
market gossip. The explanation more
readily accepted was that the shorts had
suffered a violent squeeze.
When the short interest in Reading
began to show signs Of demoralizstion,
pnoft pressure was applied against ths
Reading. Notwithstanding the advance in
that stock in London was greater than
the upturn mere, winch caused assertions
that the movement abroad was en-
gineered from this side.
Uncertain tendencies in the general
market resolved into general decline
which continued until the movements in
Reading became normal. The market
Improved before midday and moved up
wars. Bonds were easy.
The market again showed dropping
tendencies after the rally had brought
I'D prices sufficiently to enable profess
SIGNALS TO unload adyantageously. Union

final and Reading got close to 40 before
they reacted. Independent strength de-
veloped in numerous minor specialties,

points following yesterdays advance of

curities frustrated attempts TO revive
