cHOATE DECLARES IT'S
THE DUTY OF THE U. S.
TO REPEAL FREE TOLLS

Washington, April 17.-Joseph II.
Choate. American ambassador To Great
Britain during the negotiation of the
Hay -Pauucefotc treaty. believes that
the correspondence with the British
government at that time precludes the
idea that American coastwise shipping
can be exempted from paying tolls
through the Panama canal.
Former President Taft. who signed
the Panama canal act containing the
exemption clause, thought that in do
ing SO he was granting a subsidy to
American coastWise shipping and be-
lieves that. unless Congress reverses
itself, the United states will have to
submit the question to arbitration.
These points, both welcomed by the
advocates of repeal, were brought out
at the hearing before the Senate canals
committee.

HOT THREE C0RNERED
FIGHT IN INDIANA
Beveridge May Seek U. S. Senat-
orship on Progressive Ticket

Indianapolis. Ind, April 17.-With
the Democratic state convention al
ready over, the Progressive state con-
Vention to meet tomorrow and the Re-
publican state convention billed for
next week, the lineup for the coming
campaign i'm Indiana will soon be COM
plete. That it will be one of the great
est political campaigns in the states
recent history is the general forecast
among those who keep tab on political
dCings.
The chief contest will be over the
United States senatorship. Senator
BENJAMIN IT, Shively, whose term will
expire next March, has been indorscd
for reelection by the Democratic par
ty. The man who will oppose Senator
Shively on the Progressive ticket will
be selected at the convention here to-
morrow. There is strong movement
afoot to induce Albert j. Beverdge to
accept the nomination. Mr.. Beverdge
was formerly one of the most promi-
nent members on the Republican side
of the senate, but he failed of re-elec-
ton I'm 1910 and later turned Progress
i've, Since the Chicago convention
two years ago, he has been looked up
on us one of the foremost leaders of
the Progressive party 1t is the pre-
vailing belief that he could have the
senatorial nomination hands down "
he manifested Willingness to accept
il.
May Seek Something Higher.
But Mr. Beverdge is one of the most
ambitious men in American politics,
and. having already received all the
honors and political benefits that come
from election to the upper house of
Congress, IL is believed that he has
no hankering after the senatorial nom
ination at this time. IL is said he
hopes for even higher honors i'm the
future, In the event of the success of
the Progrcssives and the growth of the
party. Next to Mr.. Beveridge the
man whose name appears To be most
prominently mentioned In connection
with the senatorial nomination on the
Progressive ticket is William c. Bobbs,
senior member of a we'll known firm
Of book publishers in this city. Still
another candidate for the nomination
is Edwin NJ. Lee of L.awrenccburg.
owing To the number of aspirants
for the Republican nomination for
United states senator the choice of
that party at this time is wholly prob.

SITUATION AGAIN SERIOUS.
BUT OUTLOOK IS DICTATOR
Will YET MAKE APOLOGY
He Is Assured That His Fear That the
American Ships Might Not Re-
turn Salute Is GrOund|eSS

Washington, April 17.-Huerta has
parred again. He demands his sa-
Lutte be returned simultaneously. This
Wilson practically is certain TO refuse.
The latest hitch, when officials here
expected the situation as good as
closed up, was disclosed in "a dispatch
from OShaughnessy. Wilson discuss
ed it with the cabinet.
The administration officials said pri-
vately that Huertas counter PROPOSE
tion would not be accepted. Any in
tention of recalling the ships bound for
Tampico was abandoned, and those
close to the administration expected To
see Wilson's demand for AN unqualified
apology backed up.
The next of O'Shaughnessy's dis
patches was not made public, but it
became known that Huerta's last pro-
posal was that as his guns fired sa-
lutte To the stars and stripes that the
guns of the American fleet should re-
ply TO the Mexican salute, gun for
gun. Officials here were ready to ac-
knowledge Huerta's salute of II guns
after it been finished with "A return
salute, such as prescribed in naval GUS
tom and precedent. That merely would
be acknowledging "amende honorable"
they say. But to return Huerta's sa-
lutte, gun for gun, they pointed out,
would make the apology valueless.
officials described Huerta's latest
l.
dirnity before the Mexicans of that
part of the country under his control.
In official circles the opinion is freely
expressed that nothing but a complete
apology, such as the salute demanded,
would be accepted now All the latest
dispatches were laid before the cabi-
net. all the members Of which pract.-
cally agreed there should be no fur
ther temporizing.
Before presenting the latest dis
patches TO the president today. Bryan
said the negotiations were "unfinish-
ed" O'Shaughnessy's dispatches dealt
with the questions in detail
The officials learned that Admiral
Mayo's demand was for a salute"

sell" This was pointed out as clear

acknowledgements of Huerta's promised
apology.

When the cabinet adjourned Bryan

one message from O'Shaughnessy and

Officials expressed the view that
Huerta has been listening to bad adj

ter he had promised O'Shaughnessy
yesterday he would give the salute.
The blockade Of Mexico and other
drastic measures were discussed i'm Of
