TWO WORLDS
IN INTEREST
Quadruple Scheme to
Build the Panama
Canal.
BORN IN THE HOUSE OF
ROTHSCHILD.
England, France, Germany and
United States to Control
the Enterprise.
WOULD SIDETRACK NICARAGUA
CANAL FOR£V£R.
The Project Laid Before President
McKinley— lt Would Cost About
$100,000,000.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 13.— An
understanding has been reached between
France and Great Britain looking to the
completion and control of the Panama
canal. Germany was invited to partici
pate, bat owing to the Grseco-Turkish
complications her assent has been delayed,
though it will undoubtedly come in time.
Now nn effort is being made to learn ii
the United States will come in and form a
quadruple alliance for the completion and
neutralization of the canal.
Should such au alliance be effected it
would be the most powerful for peace the
world has ever seen. Fourteen hundred
nnd seventy-^even naval vessels, mount
ing 15.283 guns and manned by 178,685 sea
men, would stand for the protection of the
canal under the Bags of the four great
powers named. They would represent a
gross merchant marine tonnage of 18.358,
--956, nearly three-quarlers of the world's
shipping, against 6.715, 676 for all the rest
of the world.
Nathan 'Appleton of Boston, who has
represented the in crests of the Panama
Canal Company in the United States ever
since the palmy days of De Lessees' ex
extravagance and the gross corruption of
the canal ring in Pari", has just called
upon President McKinley, in company
with Secretary Long, who acted as his in
troducer, ii not his indorser. It is not
understood that Mr. Appleton has done
more as yet than present a brief argu
ment against ti.e feasibility if the Nicar
agua canal and 10 show the benefit that
would come to the United States by hav
ing huge contracts for construction work
thrown in to the bends of American con
tractors. Ii is known that inquiries in
this direction have been quietly prose
cuted for several months. The tremen
dous wcrk and wonderful improvements
in dredging mach.n brought about by
the Chicago drainage canal have opened
the eyes of the duectors of the new Pan
ama Canal Company to the advantage of
a strong American alliance.
It is a part of the huge scheme to secure
powerful American interests through
these contracts to such an extent that the
Nicaragua canal project can be thrust
aside. - *„
The scheme of the quadruple alliance
had its inception, in. the wonderful finan
cial brain winch engineered the Su z canal
deal, by which- a. majority of its stock
came into the possession oi Great Britain.
This is tne brain of the house of Roths
childs. For several years this magnifi
cent coup of high finance has been matur
ing. The stock and bonds in the Panama
Cau<*l Company have bc-ii depressed to so
low a figure that they actually represent a
tangible value in the work already done
upon the canal.
The most recent estimates of careful and
conservative engineers of the highest in
tegrity hav<» shown that the canal can be
completed with locks thron ii to Culebra
cut at a sum not to exceed £20,000,000— in
round figures $100.000, C00.
On this a dividend-earning capacity of
4 percent could b* predicted o:i the fresh
capital and the stock in the old company
at its present valuation, provided mat the
millions known to have been ir.iudu.eniiv
taken possession ol by the canai ring and
its ace .mpltces can be recalled. The actual
financial participation of the United
States in this new scheme- is not looked
for, though it would be accepted with
pleasure. No more wi 1 the Governments
of France, Germany ond Great Britain be
directly interested in a financial way. The
capitalists of London, Paris and Berlin
will take all the new stock which may be
issued, leaving the diplomatic questions
involved to be settled by the four powers
represented. T ;e.-e is nothing in the c.on
cesiion from ttie Govern of Colum
bia to prevent such an arrangement,
wh'ch, in fact, will be welcomed by that
Government as securing the completion
of the canal with lie least possibledelay.
\Vork has been quietly progressing on
the canal, particularly in the neighbor
hood of the Culeiera cut. for the past year
ahd a half. Soma 8000 employes are at
work and the whole canal plant has been
kept in excellent condition. Sixteen
miles of the canal is complete on the east
side, and at no point has tho work been
allowed to deteriorate.
There has been a deal of clever diplo
mat c work done in Washington during
the past year to prevent the Nicaragua
canal scheme from being carried through
Congress. Mexico, Colombia and Costa
Rica have been particularly active in
their opposition. Tho dispute over Sali
nas Bay and the mouth ot the San Juan
was oue of the obstacles raised to block
progress on the Nicaragua project, and
the extremely unfavorable report of the
engineering committee sent by President
Cleveland had its weight.
Nicaragua sent one of her ablest diplo
mats—J. 1). Rodriguez, to Washington to
see if a treaty could be formulated which
would insure the active participation oi
the United States in the completion of her
canal. It did not take him long to dis
cover that he had undertaken a hopeless
task, and he returned homo early in June,
discouraged at the prospect.
The united States ha's always been ex
tremely jealous of anything looting to
ward European control of the isthmian
transit.' The Panama Railway Company
is an American institution, chartered and
managed in the United States, although
its stock is an asset of the Panama Canal
Company. While France was permitted
to secure the privilege of building and
operating the can<d under a concession to
Lieutenant Napoleon Wyse, the neutrality
of the isthmus is still maintained between
Colombia and the United States. ■ ■"-* :

President McKinley Delays Sending
Appointments to the Senate.
WASHINGTON, D. C, July 13— The
horde of office-seekers now waiting in
Washington lor something to tarn up
./.ere disappointed again to-day when the
President failed to >cud the expected
batch of appointments to the Senate.
Among those expected before Congress
adjourns are: William L. Merry as Min
ister to Nicaragua, Salvador and Hon
duras; J. W. Ragsdale of Santa Rosa,
Consul to Teintsin, China | John P. Burns
of Lelond Stanford Jr. University, Consul
to Zurich, Switzerland; J. C. Lvnnh ot
San Bernardino, Collector of Internal
Revenue at San Francisco, to succeed
THE NEW PRESIDENT OF T^E Ji E. A.
James Mickieborough Greenwood, who wa-* installed at Milwaukee last week as presi
dent of the National Education Association, was b>rn a few miles south of Springfield.
111., in 1840. In .1852 his lather moved to Adair County, Missouri. Mr. Greenwood in all
his' life ieceived only lorty-four weeks of schooling. He first intended to be a lawyer, and
read considerably, but was interrupted by the breaking out. of the war and spent eighteen
months in the "army. When he came out he returned to his father's farm and devoted
himself to breaking mules. While engaged in this way he was discovered by Joseph Bald
win, now a leading Texas educator, but then engaged in starting a private normal school.
The result was that young Greenwood left the plow and "the mule and became for seven
years professor of mathematics ,in. Professor Baldwin's private school, which soon became
a flour. suing State institution. In 1874 he was elected Superintendent of Public Schools
in Kansas City, which place he has filled ever since. Mr. Greenwood has a swarthy com
plexion, which contrasts both with a dark mustache and gray hair. He has the reputation
of a tireless student and of special proficiency in mathematics. Here are his views on Im
portant topics: "I cannot say that I sympathize with the opinion which seems to prevail
in some places that the children of the country are injured by being taught almost exclu
sively by women. : I have never known better teachers or superintendents than some
women are. lam in favor of free textbooks. I realize that paternalism is a thing tht
should be sedulously avoided. But education seems by common consent to be excepted
from the condemnation of paternalism. Every other expense in connection with educa
tion is met by the public, and Ido not see why textbooks also should not be free. I have
no policy as president of the association. What occupies my mind is that the airangement
of the annual programme involves an amount of work from which I recoil with horror, but
which I shall perform to the best of my ability."
Welburn; A. C. Tufts of Sacramento as
drug inspector, to succeed Kerns; ex-
Congressman Snider of Minnesota as Min
ister to China.
THE BREAKWATER AT SAN PEDRO.
Resolution lireciing the Secretary of
Wor to Advertise lor Bids Passes
ihe Senate.
' WASHINGTON; D. C, July 13— The
resolution introduced by Senator White
directing the Secretary of War to adver
tise for bids for the breakwater at San
Pedro passed the Senate to-day- without
debate. The only opposition manifested
at all was by Senator Stewart of Nevada,
who opposed it and asked that its further
consideration be postponed until Senator
Frye could he present.
Representative Barlow hopes to have
the same resolution passed in the Houss
to-morrow.
SHERMAA -S SHARP SOTE.
Pointed lmtruc'ion* to Hay for lord
Snli*t>itry'* Perusal.
WASHINGTON, D. CL, July 13.—Im
portant instructions have recently been
sent by Secretary Sherman to Embassador
Hay for his guidance in urging on the
British Government compliance with the
provisions of the Bering Sea award.
The instructions were prepared as a re
ply to a recent note from Salisbury.
Sherman in.orms Hay that the pro
posals for new regulations fur preserving
the seals have been rejected and expresses
the President's deen concern.
He regrets that England is unable to
make public Professor Thompson's report
until Dr. Jordan's is known, when, the
former would be enabled to review, criti
cize'and minimize the latter.
"It is not pleasant," Sherman con
tinues, "to have to state that the im
partial character which it has been the
custom to attribute to reports of natural
ists of high standing has been greatly im
paired by the apparentjsubjection of this
report to the political exigencies of the
situation.
"It is further to be regretted that the re
port was so long delayed that no oppor
tunity was afforded this Government to
examine it before the definite and tip.al
rejection of the President's proposals,
based mainly upon its conclusions, was
communicated to me.
"This conduct recalls an incident which
preceded the arbitration at Paris and
which came near rendering that arbitra
tion abortive, when a similar report of the
British commission was withheld until
after the ca-e of each Government had
been exchaneed and the report of the
American commission made pubic."
Sherman scores Thompson's report as
plainly written to minimize the seals' de
pletion. After reviewing Great Britain's
persistent neglect of her duties under the
Paris award for the past three years.Sher
man continues: tßk\i_\&ff
"England from the beginning and con
tinuously has failed to respect' the real
intent and spirit of the Purls tribunal or
the obligations imposed by it. Upon
Great Britain must therefore rest
in the public conscience responsibility
for the embarrassment in the relations of
the two nations which must result from
such conduct. One of the evil results al
ready indicated is the growing conviction
of our people that the refusal of the Brit
ish Government to carry out the recom
mendations of the tribunal will needlessly
sacrifice important interests of the United
States.
"The President, therefore, cherishes the
hope that even at this late day the British
Government may yet yield to his con
tinued desire for a conference of inter
ested powers, and in delivering to Lord
Salisbury a copy of this instruction you
will state to him that the 'President will
hail with great satisfaction any indication
.on the part of her Majesty's Government 1
of a disposition to agree upon such a con
ference."

: Made.
Eight Plates Engraved and a

Worth Printed.
Mora Was to Redeem Them When
President— Mrs. Relneman Turns
State's Evidence..
NEW \ORK, N. V., July * 13.— Mrs.
Eugenia Reineman, who, with Ricardo de
Requesens, was arrested several weeks
ago and charged with having participated
in an attempt to flood Costa Rica with
counterfeit $100 notes, turned State's evi
dence to-day at the preliminary examina
tion before Commissioner Shields in the
cases of Federtco Mora, who is ah aspir-
ant for the Presidency of Costa Rica; Mrs.
Betsy Chevin, mother-in-law of De Re
quesens; Herman Dohm, a lithographer,
and Louis Houseman, foreman of the
American Printing Company, of
which Requesens is president.
Mrs. Reineman's testimony contained
all the elements of the story of" Mora's al
leged conspiracy to secure the Presidency
of Costa Rica and of the efforts of De
Requesens to raise money for revolution
ary purposes by counterfeiting in this
city notes for over $1,000,000.
To accomplish this, according to her
story, the servicts of William H. Dohm, a
son of Herman Dohm,' were secured, and
he made eight plates, from which the
notes were printed. Half a million dol
lars' worth of them were packed in a
sofa, which was sent to Han Jose, Costa
Rica. The packing, 'it is alleged, was
done in the home of Mrs. Chevin. House
man, the foreman, is accused of having
been connected with the scheme. Mrs.
Reineman testified to-oay that the move
ments of all concerned in the conspiracy
were directed by Mora.
•T went to New Orleans March 3 last
and met De Requesens there on the 7th,"
she said. "He hnd a satchel filled with
packages of bank bills. He admitted they
were bad, but said that Mora could re
deem tbem when he became President."
The examination will be continued to
morrow. '"

SUGAR BLOCKS
THE TARIFF ROAD
Democrats Would Talk
the Bill to Awful
Death. ■'-'- ■-'-*■'
Bad Feeling Arises Through
the Failure of Conferees
-to Agree.* ■: y ;
Speaker Reed Accused of Wanting
to See the Bill Defeated.
Lumbar Compromise.
.....
WASHINGTON. D. C, July 13.—
day's session of the tariff bill conference
committee was devoted largely to the
efforts to bring about an agreement on the
rates for free carpet wools. The effort
failed, however, and a member of ttie con
ference said to-night that. another ob
stacle threatened to postpone indefinitely
a conference agreement. The Senator
said: "If the situation, does not improve
at the meeting to-morrow I am hopeless
of getting any sort of. agreement during
the present week."
The sugar, wool, tobacco and lumber
schedules appear to be the chief causes of
failure to agree, although the leading item
in the lumber schedule, the duty on white
pine, seems to have been fixed on the
basis of the compromise between the
House rate of $2 per thousand and the
Senate rate of half that amount.
The Senate and House conferees are
still wide apart in regard to nearly all the
important amendments.
The sugar schedule- is particularly
troublesome, and if an agreement could
be reached upon this the way would be
clear for a prompt settlement of ail points
in dispute. The Senate conferees are act
ing as one man in support of their amend
ments, and are able to use. the lack of a
working Republican majority in the Sen
ate as an argument that they should not
be asked to recede.
The House conferees, on the other
hand, contend that their attitude has the
indorsement of an overwhelming senti
ment among Republicans generally, and
they are not inclined to yield anything.
• There has been some ugly talk at both
ends of the. Capitol to-day about the
struggle, and when the conference broke
up to-night its members showed ' ill feel
ing. ;; -•;-— 7 ;.; . *
One of the stories floating about is to
the effect that Speaker Reed really de
sired to see the tariff bill fail, and this ex
plained his presence in the Republican
cloakroom and on the floor of the Senate
during the last two days. 7 '('here Is no
foundation for such statements, but that
they are being made indicates the degree
of feeling that has been aroused between
Senators and Representatives. :;. -
Democrats come in for their share of
criticism. They are charged with having
several times prevented an agreement on
certain items and schedules in the confer
ence by notifying the .conferees - that if
they carried out their intentions -the bill
would be talked to death on the floor of
the Senate.
The Democratic conferees have not been
asked. into the conference, although they
were notified 'informally yesterday that
they would be. . „. 7 . r. .
CALIFOHSIA.'S SCHEDULE,
Information That If Will Remain as
Passed by the Senate.
WASHINGTON, D. C., July 13.— One
of the California Congressmen to-night re
ceived reliable information to the
effect that the fruit schedule had
been passed and that ■', there was
no change in the duty on citrus fruits,
olives, prunes, raisins or Zante currants,
which will remain as passed by the Sen
ate. The same is said to be true of borax,
quicksilver and all of the California
products. *
REED IseUf.s AS : EVICT.
House Conferees Notified Sot to Yi-!d to
the Senate schedule.
NEW YORK, N. V., July 13. -The Her
ald's Washington correspondent says that
Speaker Reed has given. the Republican
conferees for the House, to understand
that if they yield to the Senate schedule
their report will be in. danger of being
rejected by the House, even if such action
might jeopardize the passage of the tariff
bill at this session of Congress. As a result,
tbe compromise agreement on the sugar
schedule, which was practically reac ed
yesterday, is now off, and it is impossible
to predict the outcome. *'?'.-
BLAME RHODES FOR THE RAID.
South African Commission Finds No Ex-
euse for Hs Organ-zing an Armed
Insurrection.
LONDON, Era., July 13.— The Parlia
mentarian South African Commission that
has been inquiring into th * Transvaal
raia has agreed upon its last report. The
Pail Mall Gazette will publish, to-morrow
a summary. of the conclusion of the com
mittee. The report will express an em
phatic opipion that whatever justification
there might have been for action on the
part of the people of Johannesburg, there
was none whatever for Cecil Rhodes' con
duct in subsidizing, organizing .and stim
ulating an armed insurrection against the
Government of the Transvaal.
A heavy responsibility, according to the
report, remains with Rhodes, despite ■ the
fact that at the last moment Dr. Jameson
invaded the Transvaal without Rhodes'
direct sanction. '. _
The gravity of Rhodes' transaction ' is
weightily expressed by the committee,
wno find "that he seriously embarrassed
both the imperial and colonial Govern
ments; that the proceedings resulted in
an astonishing breach. of international
comity; that he utilized his position and
the great interests he controlled to assist
and support revolution, and deceived the
High Commissioner, as well as concealed
his views from the members of the colo
nial Ministry and directors ;of the chart
ered company." ... ■ -„. ;
The committee is of the opinion that of
the chartered company directors ,who
were examined only Mr. Beit 'and Mr.
Maguire were cognizant of; the .plans of
Rhodes, and as Beit was intrusted with
the money to promote the revolutionary
movement he must share the full respon
sibility for the consequences. ,

A. •E. Morrison Tells -the East of the
Popularity of the New Racing \
L' ague of .California. ..■-.
NEW YORK, N. V., July 13.— E.
Morrison of • San Francisco, a member of
the new racing lea-gus in California, is now
in the East. Talking of the new move
ment wnich is controlling cycling on the
ceast, independent .of the L. A. W. f ana
holding Sunday races, he says:
"The movement is a great success. Ihe
Association of California Cycling Clubs
now has 1100 members and is growing with
surprising -rapidity. On the other Band,
California Division, L. A. W., is at a
standstill, as regards new members, hav
ing secured only one, accoruinir to last
week's bulletin, while old members are
dropping out by the score. The new
association controls both road and track
racing, and when I say •control," I mean
it. .
"Racing men respect the new organiza
tion and follow its rules to the letter.
There are a succession of meets, all of
which are successful. Sundays- ana
holidays, of course, are the principal meet
days, out the men bave a great deal of
racing provided for weekdays. The
prizes are large and the men are making
money. Tne success of the venture is
phenomenal. We are traveling right
ahead, ana the L. A. W. is seldom thought
of in our section. Caliiornia is paddling
her own canoe, and all attacks made upon
us cannot harm v«. We s.mnly do not
care for the former controlling body and
have no regrets wiiatever."

IS THIS MAN HERMANS?
Suspect Arrested in Canada Is Arraigned
for the Salt Lake Chut eh
Murders.
PEMBROKE, Ontario, July .13.— The
fine-looking young man whom the author
ities here have arrested on the supposition
tbat he is Hermans, who in 1895 murdered
and cremated Miss Walling of Salt.LaKe
City, says his name is Hamilton. He has
been in the vicinity of Eganville for some
time, posing as a clergyman, and shared
the usual warm hospitality accorded to
preachers. Thus secluded in the back
woods of Canada he was perfectly safe
until the authorities of Utah offered a re
ward and sent photographs of the outlaw
broadcast. County Crown Attorney Met
calf received a photograph and was in
formed of its resemblance to Hamilton. .
.Hamilton was arraigned to-day, but was
remanded until the 15th, when it is ex
pected the authorities of Salt Lake City
will come for him. <-J:\ Z.'-i- • Z- .' '";..-:- ■

SO PARDOS FOR THE lOUAGERS.
Minnesota State Hoard Unanimously
Decides .1 .in mat Their Release.
ST. PAUL. Minx., July This after
noon the evidence in the famous Younger
case being all in, the State Board or
Pardons returned a unanimous verdict
against their release. Mayor Keves of
Faribault opposed pardoning .the Young
ers until they would tell the name of the
man who Killed Cashier; Haywood of the
Northfield Bank, and until "they could be
placed upon the stand to testify against
that man if he be brought back .. to the
State for trial. Frank Wilcox, who was
bookkeeper of the bank at the time, has
since identified Frank James, brother of
the famous Jesse, while the latter was in
jail in Independence. Mo., as the man
who shot and killed Haywood, but Keyes
■aid it was hardly probable that the
Governor* of M ssourl would grant
a requisition for James from 7 his Stale
without more evidence than the identifi
cation of Wilcox.

May Bo Reported To- Day by the

WASHINGTON, D.7.C., July - 13. -An
attempt to obtain a favorable report from
the Senate Committee on Foreign Rela- ■
tions on the Hawaiian treaty will b' made
to-morrow. Davis, chairman of the com
mittee, said to-day that at to-morrow's
meeting he would try to secure action so .
that the treaty could be reported to the
Senate. 7-v7j7
Although it is not expected that the
treaty will De disposed of at this session
the impression among the advocates of
annexation that ihe situation demands
immediate action may cause the matter to
be taken up ircmi.diately. This impres
sion, however, is not borne out by the. at- •
titude of Japan, as officially expressed in
her notes on the subject. These notes
have been of a uniformly temperate tone.
Japan has given positive assurances that
she has no designs on the Pacific republic
and that only seeming inconsistency is
contained in the point set forth in Minis
ter Hoshi's protest to Sherman that the
maintenance of the status quo of Hawaii
is essential to the good understanding of
the powers having interests in, the Pa
cific.
While this statement has not been lost
sight of by the administration the Presi
dent told the members of the Cabinet at
lta meeting to-day that he was not
alarmed. The situation was talked over
by the President and Cabinet, but noth
ing interesting was developed. It is Haid
the intention to send the battleship Ore
gon to Honolulu was the principal feature
of conversation, and the reasons for as
signing such a larg vessel to Hawaiian
waters were explained. The friendly feel
ing which has always characterized Ja
pan's relations with the United States is
shated by the present Tokio Ministry, and
all correspondence with the State Depart
ment about Hawaii has shown a- desire to
maintain those relations, even at great,
cost to Japan's pride. Correspondence
between Tokio and Honolulu is recognized
by those who are anxious to consummate
the amalgamation of Hawaii and the
United Stales.* - .*. --.--..: ?- •"<
There is some doubt whether a quorum

Frye, an earnest advocate of annexa
tion, is in Maine, and Lodge and Gray :
may not be able to be present. Davis has
prepared a favorable report, which be will
ask the committee to adopt.
The withdrawal of the wooden ship
Marion from Honolulu is to be followed,
by the transfer of a better vessel, proba
bly the gunboat B-nnitigton, to take her
place before . the Oiegon goes to Hawaii.
It was said at the Navy Department to
day that the Marion would remain in
Hawaiian waters until another vessel
arrived. The orders recalling the Marion,
which were sent by the Navy Department
yesterday, are expected to reach San
Francisco in time to go out by mail
steamer on the 18th.
The Benninaton has an engagement to
take Dart in the California naval militia
exercises and will perform that duty be
fore sailing for Hawaii. The date of the
Oregon's departure is uncertain. She is
now at Port Angeles, aud is due at San
Francisco on Saturday. The Philadel
phia will remain at Honolulu until tbe
Oregon arrives. *
