TH ET -MENNElAJPQJIii PANAMA ROAD TO BREAK MONOPOLY Secretory Taft Says Government Will Do All It Can to Make Rates Just. Washington, April 26.Secretary Taft has made a decision of the greatest importance to railway interests regard ing the policy of the government rela tive to the existing monopoly of traffic across the Isthmus of Panama and the fixing of rates over the Panama railway as bearing on the existing rates of transcontinental traffic. The publication of several interviews recently with the secretary himself, with representatives of the canal com mission and with Engineer Wallace, has led to much confusion in the public mind on these subjects, and the secre tary decided to make known his own views and purposes. He makes it plain that there is to be no discrimination whatever as between the several steam ship companies in handling their busi ness across the isthmus. He says: Show No Discrimination. The policy of the government in man aging the Panama railway is to charge such rates as will pay for the carriage of the goods cross the isthmus, a reason able return- on the investment of the gov ernment and nothing more. It will per mit no discrimination against or in favor of any of the connecting steamship lines. It may be that this policy will affect the transcontinental rates, as to the classes of freight that can stand the isthmus trip, favorably for the shipper. The Panama Railway company owns three steamships which ply between New York and Colon. We shall make the rate upon these ships as low as possible, con sistent with paying a reasonable compen sation for the carriage and the invest ments." We shall run them merely for the jpurpose of preventing a combination to raise the rates for the delivery of mate rial for the "construction of the canal from the "United States to the Isthmus. To Break Up Monopoly. The government is not running and does not expect to run a line between New-York and San Francisco, or between San Francisco and New York, hence the relation of its policy to transcontinental rates is only indirect. The policy of the Panama Railway, company, heretofore, in view of its ownership of the three ships and the docks at Colon and its resulting ability to exclude from the New York and Colon business any other steamship line, has been to' monopolize the trade between New York and Panama, on the one side, while its arrangement for exclusive thru billing between New York and San Francisco wltli the Pacific Mail Steamship company, produced a monopoly for the Pacific Mail trade on the other side between Panama and San Francisco on the north, and a monopoly for the Chilean and Pacific Steamship companies from Panama to the south. As far as the action of 'the Panama Rail way company can break up the monopolies action is being taken. The government requisitioned the railway line for the pur pose of acquiring an instrument with" which to construct, the canal, an instru ment absolutely indispensable to the ac complishment of our purpose within a rea sonable time. Make Just Bates. We shall do what we can to make Just rates and prevent discrimination. If it does not ameliorate^conditions, it will not be In our power to"3o more. The effect" of changes in rate and. trade conditions is so elusive that it is hardly safe to make a prediction as to the re sult. One should study the logical condi tions which prevail at Panama and at the many ports between San Francisco, In Mexico and in Central America, and should estimate the effect of our coast wise laws, which prevents the Interven tion in the trade going via the isthmus between San Francisco and New York, before expressing an opinion as to the ef fects of the government's operation of the Panama railway on the trade between our east and west coasts. It is possible the time is now ripe for the establishment of American competition with the Pacific Mail between San Francisco and Panama! Certainly, the government in operating the Panama railway, will do nothing to hinder it. NORWAY REJECTS PLAN OF REGENT Declines to Renew Negotiations with Sweden According to Prince's Terms. Stockholm, April 26tThe Norwe gian government has declined to accede to the crown prince regent's request for a renewal of the negotiations look ing to an adjustment of the differences between Sweden and Norway, lt^ re quires as precedent to such negotiation! the establishment of a separate con sular service and that'no obstacle be imposed on the existing liberty of ac tion of either country. In consequence of this decision the regent has issued a statement as follows: The Norwegian government unfortu nately declines to associate itself With my proposal for fresh negotiations con' cerning the union. I must therefore with sincere regret leave the matter to the council of state. The common affairs of Sweden and Norway are decided by a council of state composed of Swedes and Norwe gians. Norway Explains. Christiania, April 26.The govern ment issued a statement yesterday giv ing the reason for its action in declin ing to accede to the crown prince re gent .'s request. The statement says that, while Nor way is not seeking a dissolution of the union, the people unanimously demand separate consular representation and that to yield this point pending nego tiations, as suggested by the prince regent, would mean the surrender of a fundamental right. The statement further points out that negotiations have hitherto been fruit less and that there is no reason to sup pose that a further effort will be more fruitful.
