POINTS PERIL IN CANAL ZON
Dr. Jacob Frank Returns After Study
ing Conditions In Panama.
Chicago, Feb. 15. That the condi
toons in the Panama canal zone are
at the present deplorable is tho ver
dict of Dc. Jacob Frank, who return
ed from the Isthmus yesterday after
studying conditions as the guest of J.
F. Wallace, the chief engineer of the
canal.
Dr. Frank went to Panama primar
ily to attend the Pan-American medi
cal congress, the scientific portion of
which he opened by reading a paper
on "Surgery of the Liver."
"Conditi'ns In the canal zone are
being remedied as rapidly as possible
by Mr. Wallace and his associates,"
said Dr. Frank, "but Americans are
making a serious mistake in goiug
there at present with a view of em
barking in any business. Everything
is controlled by either the govern
ment, the Panama Railway or the
United Fruit company.
"Better wages are paid in this coun
try. In fact, the ordinary working
man gets an average or just over 75
cents a day, and complaints are heard
on all sides. At least $1.50. per day
ought to be paid the men, as the work
Is dangerous and diseases are easily
contracted. There is not a single
American laborer, so far as I could
learn, on the canal."
MAMMOTH AND MOHAWK.
Report reached the city yesterday
from a reliable source that the Mo
hawk and Mammoth mines will short
ly resume, development The itV
hawk has been closed for ten yeans
while the Mammoth has been shut
down for over four years.
The directors of both properties,
which adjoin, have lately visited the
mines and are now on the ground.
The plans for reopening their work
ings are the result of these visits. Su
perintendent Blair, of the Mammoth,
is credited with the statement that his
mine will be taking on full shifts
about the first of the month.
Both the Mohawk and the Mam
moth have In past years demonstrat
ed themselves wonderful properties.
It is believed that further development
in each will bring in even more won
derful ore bodies than have been had
at any time in the past. During her
activity the Mammoth produced over
sio.Annrnnn in gold. The Mohawk
also has a high producing record.

By Examining Committee of the Legislature
MORE TINKERING WITH MINING INDUSTRY
port on the penitentiary at Yuma
came in today with recommendation
that a prison commission be appoint
ed to select a location for a new
branch penitentiary at some other
point In the territory than Yuma. The
committee declared that It would cost
not less than $75,000 to put the pres
ent penitentiary in proper shape to
care for the needs made by the rapidly
increasing population of the territory
and to make the improvements that
the penitentiary stands in immediate
need of. It did not believe that the
present location of the penitentiary
was the place to put this amount of
money, holding that the sum could be
spent at some other point to greater
advantage.
Mining law discussion today was
enlivened by the presentation ot a
coupie more measures anecting tne
industry. One of these, by -Krugcr,
is a bullion tax bill modeled after the
Anderson bill except that it puts tne
tax only on output and not on min
ing property. The other was a mine
inspector bill, introduced by Neville.
The House took up as a committee
of the whole the Superior Court bill,
giving the measure considerable dis
cussion. ,
Ruiz endeavored to get the Ranger
bill out of committee, but was defeat
ed In his efforts by adjournment of
the Council.

EDWARD OPEfvrS PARLIAMENT.
King Exceedingly Charry of Remarks
on Subject of War.
London, Feb. 15. Tbe sixth session
at the first) parliament of hie reign
was opened this afternoon by King
Edward, wlfti aH the historical pag
antry which has marked ceremonies
since his asscension.
The sovereign himself read a speech
from the throne to the assembled
lords and commons in the upper clam
ber. The document was common
place.
The only reference to the Russ-Jap-anese
war, which the King said "Un-
hapily continues," was announce
ment that "my government has been
careful to observe in tfils matter tbe
obligations incumbent upon a ne'utral
power." ,
The later proceedings of parli.nj-'"
left the impression in the lobb.
that the government will manage to
hold out until the end of the session.
The government's legislative profram.
which is devoted in the main to social
reforms, will be fairly popular while
avoidance of difficulties like that of
redistribution of seats and Premieur
Balfour's firmness in thrusting aside
the fiscal problem will tend in the
same direction.

where there are fifty deaths a day.
General Stoessel and General Reiss,
his chief of staff, who acted as in

respondent. They said it wa3 a sad
thing to return vanquished, but they
were conscious of having done their
entire duty in holding the fortress as
long as they did.
They could not have held Port Ar
thur at the most four days longer. The
munitions and food supplies bad been
almost exhausted. There remained
only C.000 loaded shells and 2,000,000
cartridges, which were powerless
against the ll-inch guns which rained
their fire upon the Itussiaa defenses.
"In the garrison' said General
Stop!spi, "thjare were 30,?00 men, o!
whom 18,000 were In hospital and 4,

with scurvy and were obliged to fight

The health of General Wallace has been waning for several
