King George Postpones Visit to

Plan toJExcept Tyrone in Ulster

i Proposed.


LONDON, July 1S.-King George
Who has been making great efforts
to bring about settlement of the
Irish home rule crisis. decided this
morning to postpone until later IN the
day, his proposed visit to the great
British fleet now lying at Spithead.
This he did SO that he might be on
nnd in London to receive early re-
/ is of developments in the confer
enees going on between the various
party leaders, II Is understood that
when the opportuife moment arrives
his majesty will throw his great in
fluence toward the side looking for an
afnlcable settlement
The belief prevails that such set :
tlenent is not far off and the Liver
pool Post, one of the best informed
newspapers on the government side,
goes SO far as to say:
There is really an arranged set
]. tlsment of the Irish question. Details
nave yet to be adjusted. but the
broad facts can be regarded as fixed. >
Other authorities do not go quite
: so far, but satisfy themselves with
the statement There is a. near ap-
proach to settlement"
The government is believed to have
offered the Unionists in case they
agree to abandon their demand for a
'sclean CUT of the province of Ulster
out of the operations of the Irish
home rule bill, to arrange that the
whole Of Ulster, with the exception
of the county of Tyrone, which has a
great Catholic majority, should vote
as single entity on the question of
exclusion from the home rule govern
ment The Unionists demand that
Tyrone shall be included in this ar
rangement and this has been the
cause of the deadlock.

Birrell secretary of state for Ireland,
who are carrying on the negotiations

COLON TO HAVE
EXPOSITION FOR
CANAL OPENING
Panama Republic Arranged to
Attract Attention to country's
Natural Advantages.

A great exposition under the di-
rection of the Colon Board of Com
merce. is to be held on the banks OF
the Panama Canal in 1915. Like the
San Francisco Exposition, it will be
held to celebrate the opening of the
canal.
The main object of the proposed
fair, however, will be to attract the
attention of American business men
to the natural advantages of the Re
public of Panama. Already the gov
ernment has appropriated approx
mately s2,000,O00 for the equipment OF
the grounds and the buildings and a
great deal more is still to be ex-
pended
In an effort to interest manufacture
ers and business men in the United
States in the plan and to have them
send their exhibits to Panama, James
L. Kerr, president of the Colon Board
of Commerce, is spending several
days here. Before returning, he hopes
to interest the various transportation
companies.
According to Mr.. Kerr, the com
pletion of the canal will make Colon
literally the hub of the world" with
paths radiating to all commercial
centres, Added to this, the country
surrounding it possesses natural ad-
vantages that are not surpassed in
any quarter of the world With the
food question uppermost in this
country 1t is interesting to note that
Panama has the widest stretches OF
fine grazing land anywhere within
shipping distance of the American
markets.
Supply Is Inexhaustible.
Mr.. Kerr says, too, that an abun-
dance of hard woods is in the forest.
of the country, and that the supply OF
mahogany, cocobolo and ebony i,
practically inexhaustible Because OF
this and the unlimited shipping
facilities guaranteed by the canal
Colon furnishes an ideal location fol-
furniture factories.
The mineral resources that have
never been developed should attract
capital as soon as their extent is
known 1t is to bring all of these re-
sources to the attention of people
generally that the exposition is to be
held
That a large number of people will
make trips to Colon during the year
following the opening of the canal is
certain For the benefit of these, the
men in charge of the exposition are
arranging trips to the beautiful Pear
Islands to view the fisheries. the Bay
ano River for alligator hunting. tc
Boca del Toro. the greatest banana
country in the world, and to Porte
Bello
The fair grounds are but ten min
utes away from the city, and contain
about 400 acres. Already handsome
buildings to house the exhibits have
been started. One of the buildings
will be a Greek temple erected tc
house conventions and large assem-
blies. II will seat 5000 people. Mr.
7 Kerr viii try to have the Knights o.
Columbus choose Colon for their con-
vention in 1916. The city Is vel
equipped with hotels, two of the hos
telries being the handsomest in South
America.
