Baltimore February 6.-Presdent Wood

says the exemption of American coast
wise shipping from Panama canal tolls
constitutes a very mistaken policy from
every point of view," and benefits. for

The President also pays high tribute

matter of fact it benefits, for the present
at any rate, only monopoly and 1t
seems to me in clear violation of the
terms of the -Pauncefote treaty.
There is, of course, much honest differ
ence of opinion as to the last point, as
there is. no doubt, as to the others, but
1t is at least table, and If the prom
ises we make in such matters are de-

State shows how comprehensively you
have looked on during the last few
months. Not only have Mr.. Bryan s
chars cter. his justice, his sincerity. his
transparent integrity. his Christian prin-
ciple. made deep impression upon all
with whom he has dealt; but his tact
in dealing with men of many sorts, his
capacity for business. his mastery of the
principles of each matter he has been
called upon to deal with have cleared
away many difficulty and have given

detinitness and dignity that are very adj
mirable. | need not say what pleasure
