PRESIDENT ARAUJ0
SEVERELY WOUNDED
Death of Salvadorian Ruler Would
Result in Disturbances Through
out Latin America.

Little hope OF the recovery of Presi.
dent Manuel Araujo of Salvador from
the wounds inflicted upon him BY an as
sassin Tuesday night is contained in dis
patches TO the State Department yester-
day from Minister Heimke, at San Sal
ysdor
In the event that President Araujo
should die, II Is feared that his removal
from power In Central America may
prove the spark needed to start a gen.
eral conhagration in Central America
1t Is common knowledge from Washing
ton to Panama that the turbulent ele-
Inent in all Latin America north of the
Canal is planning to have its inning
after March L. Without any attempt al
secrecy. the word has gone forth that
great events may be looked for amona
the little republics as soon as President
Taft is eleminated from the situation
and Mr.. Wilson takes Office. The Latin
Americans are making all sorts of plans
based entirely on the conviction that
President-elect Wilson, like Senator Ba-
con, will be opposed to using the forces
CT the United States to prevent disorder
in Central America. Since the Taft ad-
ministration is even now in the last min-
utes of its eleventh hour, it Is said 70
be more than probable that the death OF
President Araujo may prove the signal
for the unIoosing of all the forces which
have been plotting a readjustment Of
power to take effect after March T.
President Taft yesterday sent mes
sage to President AraujO, upon being
informed of the attack upon his life.
Secretary and Mrs. Knox, who were
the guests of President Araujo in San
Salvador last March. also cabled the
wounded President.

PRESIDENT SUGGESTS
FEDERAL OWNERSHIP
Railroads in Alaska, to Cost $3s, 900, :
600, May Be Built by Gov
ernment.

Recommending the government con-
struction and private operation OF a
s3S,ooCOt0 railroad to open UP the vast
coal and iron fields of Alaska, President
Taft yesterday transmitted to Congress
the report Of the commission appointed
last August Ito examine into the trans
portation question in Alaska and to re-
port on the best routes for railroads
which will develop the country and the
resources thereof for the use OF the
people of the United States"
The commissions report advocates the
construction of two separate railroad
systems, aggregating 733 miles Of new
construction, one to connect the yukon
and its tributary, the Tannana, with the
tidewater, and the other to be devoted
to the development of the Kukokwim and
Susitna Rivers. The President says:
THE best available route for the first
railway system is that which leads from
Cordova by way of Chitina to Fairbanks
The best route for the second is. that
which leads from Seward around Cook
Inlet to the Iditarod. The first could
be connected with the Bering coal field.
and the second with Matanuska coal
field.
The necessary inference from the en-
tire report is that in the Judgment of
the commission its recommendations can
certainly be carried out only II the gov
ernment builds or guarantees the con-
struction cost of the railroads recon-
mended. II tho government is to
guarantee the principal and interest of
the construction bonds 1t seems clear
that 1t should own the roads. the cost
of which ii really pays. This is true
whether the government itself should
operate the roads or should provide for
their operation by lease or operating
agreement I am very much opposed to
government operation. but I believe that
government ownership with private
operation under lease is the proper So
luton of the difficulties here presented"

SEEKING TO MEET
BRITISH OBJECTIONS

Canal Tolls.

Senator Newlands. a Democrat, of Ne
yada. yesterday introduced a bill which
is designed TO meet the objection that

the United States in eXempting American
coastwise shipping from the payment of
tolls through the Panama Canal is seek
ing 10 make foreign shipping pay dis
proportionately for the maintenance of
the canal Senator Newlands' resolution
declares that when the free tolls pro-
vision was passed it was not the inten-
ton of Congress to impose on foreign
and international tonnage any portion OF
the cost OF operation and maintenance
which would be properly assignable to
the tonnage of American vessels engaged
in the coastwise trade.
Senator NewIands has also introduced
n bill amending the Panama Canal act

ROYALTY ON ARMOR PLATE.
Court Holds Harvey Process Con.
tract Binding.

The United States Supreme Court has
handrd down a decision that the Fed
eral government should pay royalty for
use of armor plate treated according
to the Harvey process, as named in a
contract. The decision. in which Chief
Justice White delivered the opinion OF
the court. was made in the appeals. the
United States against the Harvey Steel
Company and the Midvale Steel Com
pany against the Harvey Steel Company.
These appeals are from a Judgment
in favor of the Harvey Steel Company
and against the United States for sl23,
46723
This was the amount of royalty found
to be Que to the Harvey Steel Com
pany under a contract, dated April L.
1898, to pay royalty on all armor plate
treated by the Harvey process and used
by the United States, the court holds.
The armor plate under which the
roalty in question was allowed was
manufactured for the United States un-
der four contracts with the Midvale Steel
Company. The Midvale Steel Company,
for the protection of its interests under
the contracts, was permitted to inter-
vene, and it was also allowed to appeal
from the judgment"
By a contract entered into on April
z, 1893. the United States was granted
the right to use for the treatment of ar
NOR plate for its vessels the Harvey
process and any and all improvements
made by the Harvey Steel Company
upon such process, and to use and EN-
ploy the armor plates manufactured ac-
cording to said process. it is stated, the
United States agreeing to pay the Har-
vey Steel Company a royalty of one
half cent per pound on the finished plate
Concluding, the court states:
Under the contract Of April Il. 1895,
the right was conferred upon the
United States to Use and employ the
aforesaid Harvey process in the treat
ment of arInor plates for vessels which
have been since July IS. 1882, or which
may hereafter be, authorized by Con-
gress, and to use and employ armor
plates for such vessels manufactured ac-
cording to such process, paying therefor
to the party of the first part the royalty
of one-half OF one cent per pound of
the finished plate. We think the plain
meaning of the contract was that the
government should pay royalty when II
used armor plate treated according to
the Harvey process Of the contract"
The judgments of the lower court were
affirmed.
James f. Sheffield, of New York, was
counsel for the appellees.
