SEEKING PANAMA CANAL TOLLS EXEMPTION
litlCdi Allies Are With Him in
Contention for Repeal.

WashingtOn.-Pres Wilson de
clared Monday that in seeking the re
peal of the Panama tolls exemption he
not only was asking that the nation
do that which it was bound in honor
TO do, but was going the way OF the
majority in the democratic party. He
pointed out that when the Panama
canal act was passed majority OF
the democrats then in the house OF
representatives voted against the tolls
exemption and that only by cOali-
ton OF a minority of democrats with
number of republicans did the meas
ure become law.
This announcement was taken in ad-
ministration circles as the presidents
answer to the argument that the Bal
timore platform made the tolls eXemp-
ton democratic doctrine. The pres
ident is understood to believe that the
majority opinion of the democrats in
the house, as last expressed, was d
result of more deliberate cOnsidera-
ton of the question than was possible
at the Baltimore convention.
The president made no secret to
callers of his anxiety for the repeal
measure to come to vote. Asked If
he thought influences were at work
to prolong debate unnecessarily, Mr..
Wilson said he did not know, but 1t
certainly appeared to him as if there
! had been filibustering; that minoritles
always filibustered and disclosed
themselves as filibusters.
The president is confident that he
will have the majority OF his party
behind him in the house when the re-
peal comes to a vote. He has been as
sured that at least 200 democrats will
support him and many republicans.
Senator James of Kentucky has in
formed the president the vote in the
senate would be at least SO to "a in
favor of the repeal.

BRITISH OFFICERS QUIT ARMY.
Rather Than Act Against Ulster Cove
nanters, Officers Resign
Commissions.

London.-The governments military
precautions to preserve order in Ul-
ster have precipitated a crisis with
out parallel in the history of the Brit
ish army. Rather than be placed in
a position where they might be called
upon 10 act against the Ulster Cove
nanters, numbers of officers have re-
signed their commissions.
While the war office refuses to say
how many have resigned, popular be-
lief is that the number of Withdrawals
has crippled the whole military organ
ization in Ireland and prevented carry
ing out of the orders for moving large
bodies of troops.
The marquis of Londonderry, an
Ulster leader, Monday said that moth
ing of the sort had occurred in the
British army since the days OF the
American revolution.
