LL.INcREASES REVENUE

House Passes Measure Changing

Vessels Passing Through.

Increase Of approximately is per
cent In revenues collected from the
Panama canal is provided in bill
changing the. system Of measure
ment Of vessels passing through the
canal which was passed by the House
yesterday and sent to the Senate.
Opposition to the measure came
largely from Pacific coast members,
who complained that charges on deck
cargoes resulting from the change
Of measurement rules would work
hardship on west coast shippers, par
ticularly lumber interests.
The bill, which, was passed. by
vote Of 264 to H.. directs that the

based on actual earning capacity Of
q vessel, will govern the levy of tolls
instead Of net tonnage. Existing toll
rates are unchanged by the bill, but
the canal measurement rules will in
crease the basis on which these
charges are computed.
Similar legislation has been before
Congress the last four years, without
eqactment, although recommended for
passage by both Senate. and House
committees.

LONDON, October 2.-Cabinet minis

OF a settlement of the railroad strike,
according to the political correspond

declared early this morning the gov

determination not to resume negoti-
atoms unless the men first resume
work, and remarked that the fact
that Mr. Thomas went to Downing
street while knowing of this condi-
ton was a most hopeful feature.

and L. r. Folsom of NorridEeWock
During Tuesdays session, a petition
was filed by John r. Mcclellan ask
ing for the appointment of Judge Z. f.
Danfurth as administrator of the es-
tate of the late Herman Steinberg.
Judge Small had been appointed spec
al administrator of this estate which
is much more valuable than it was
first believed because Of the finding of
approXimately $S000 i'm the store of
the deceased after his death.
A number of Wills were presented
for probate among thcm being that
of Mrs Mary f. Briggs of Fairfield,
formerly of SkoWheean, who be-
queathed her property 10 her husband
with the stipulation that at his death
what remained should go TO her sis
ter, Maud e Ross and children. In
the document Mrs Briggs also re
ferred to the care OF her father-in-laW
and if he survived. her husband is to
carry out the provisions Of the will of

among those presented for probate.
Her home was in Athens and she be-
queathed to Lafayette Littletield of
Athens her entire property, naming
John +. Holman, as her executor. The

nah B. Barker of Athens was also
presented at this term of court. This

her estate and therefore desired that
her estate be administered according
to law and that her children and
grandchildren should share in her es-
tate according to the laws of the in
heritance of the state. Her son,
