WISHES Of PRESIDENT
LIKELY TO Be GRANTED
Believed Congress Will Repeal
Canal Toll Exemption Clause
if Mr.. Wilson Desires.
Senator o'Gorman, It Is Thought,
Will Yield-Three Courses Open,
It Is Pointed Out.

If the President sends a message to
Congress asking that the provision of
the Panama canal act granting toll ex-
emptfon to American coastwise vessels be
repealed or that it's operation be sus-
pended for the present time, it is the
belief at the Capitol that the Presidents
wish VIII be acceded to. In the first
place, there is strong opposition among
many members of the Senate and House
to the present law; in the second place.
the President has been sinsularly sue
cessful in the past in swinging the demo-
Gratis of both bodies into line for legis-
lation he desired.
A number of the democrats who have
hitherto been strongly in favor of the
toll exemption clause, it is said, are will
ing to listen to the President.
O'Gorman Likely to Yield.
Senator O'Gorman of New York. chair
man of the Senate committee on inter
oceanic canals, has been in favor of the
free passage of the canal by American
coastwise vessels. Senator OGorman
however, has shown himself Il good party
man in the past, and if the. head of his
party insists upon change in TINS pro-
vision, and if it is apparent that many
others of the democrats desire the same
change. he may not continue his opposi-
tion to the plan.
Three courses are open to Congress in
the matter. Great Britain. which has
persistently opposed the toll exemption
for American ships, has offered to. ar
bitrate the question as to its being d
violation of the HayPauncefote treaty
i.,- i<- hG1 t
to be opposed to this, maintaining that
the United States should settle the is
sue for itself. Another course is tc
