JOCKEYING FOR
CHAIRMANSHIPS
Contest Among Senate Demo
crats For Committee Places.
CLAIMANTS FOR LEADERSHIP.
Martin of Virginia, Now Minority
Loader, May Cot tho Plum Rivoro
and Harbors Bill to Be Pushed In
Short teeelon Senator Borah to
Proeo Labor Department Measure.
By ARTHUR W. DUNN.
Washington, Nov. U3. (Special.)
When (iovernor Wilson set at rest all
doubt as to an extra session of con
gress be started the liveliest sort of
con I cot among tbe Democrats of tbe
senate. More important than the Dem
ocratic policies are tbe selfish desires
of Individual Deinocrata regarding;
committee places and committee chair
manships. It might not be supposed
that the entire energy of a great and
successful party would be nearly con
sumed In this msd rush for personal
place and scheming for committee as
signments. It lias always been tbe
rase with every party. Every congress
witnesses Jockeying and wirepulling
about committee assignments.
With tbe Democrats about to assume
control of tbe senate tbe combinations
are so many and possible that all aorta
of schemes and propositions are made.
Above It all Is tbe claim of seniority,
which counts for everything and Is
not easily upset, but there U an oppor
tunity fur many of the seniors to take
a choice, and they are playing the
game for the advantage of themselves
and their friends.
Will Martin Bo Leederf
Beuntor Martin of Virgtiila la now
the mluorlty leader. While technically
there la no real leader for the major
ity, the chairman of tbe majority cau
cus organ I iat Ion la generally recog
nised as lender. That honor has al
ways fallen to the man longest In serv
ice In the majority. Martin. Bacon
and Tillman came to the senate at tbe
same time. One of tliem will be cho
sen chairman of tbe caucus. It will
possibly lie Martin unless a figbt la
made against him by the progressive
element of the party. Bacon will be
president pro tem. Tlllmnn" Is not
strong enough for the place Martin
wants. ,
Not Getting Together.
"Taft would have been elected sure
If Roosevelt had not been In the fleld."
Is tbe claim of tbe friends of the pres
ident. "If Ilooscvelt had been nominated at
Chlcngo by tbe Republicans he would
have been elected," any the leading
Progressives.
As long ns that Idea Is expressed and
Iielleved there Is not much hope of tbe
rival factions getting together. If they
could realize that this waa a Demo
cratic year and that no Republican
was likely to succeed they might find
a mutual basis of future agreement
But as long as the present feeling ex
ists the effort of the peacemaker will
not be an easy task.
Rivers snd Harbors Bill.
Already efforts are living made to se
cure tho passage of a rivers and har
bors bill at the short session of con
gress. The fact Unit eight memtiors of
the bouse committee were defeated In
tbe Inst election will. make them anx
ious to get n bill through, so thoy may
Jook after their own interests while
still members of the committee. There
has boon a sort of understanding that
a waterway bill shnll pass euch yenr,
although It hns been found somewhat
more expensive than the old system of
ono bill every two years.
Lost to Lodge.
Henry Cnliot Lodge has bad nenrly
every ambition of bis life gratified.
He hns become the senior sonntor from
Massachusetts, has become one of the
senate lenders, hns been spokesman
for n president, hns twice been perma
nent chnlrmnn of national conventions
nnd twice chairman of the committee
on resolutions which made the national
platform. Hut the one yearning ainlil
tiou of hla life remains unsiitlslled
be cannot become chnlrmnn of the
comuiiltee on foreign relations of the
senate. With a tenacity of life sur
prising Senator Cullom hns held on,
and when he wna finally displaced the
Democrats capture the senate and take
the chairmanship, which was almost
within Dodge's grasp.
May Be Another Deportment.
While It Is doubtful, there Is the pos
sibility of another cabinet position for
Woodrow Wilson to 1111. The depart
ment of labor bill bns passed the house,
and Senator Borah has it Ju an advan
tageous position on the calendar. Bo
mb is the kind of mau who pushes
things aud knows bow to get bills con
sidered. Of course It will not be bard
to defeat any measure In the short ses
sion, tfut insistence may win the bat
tle. It would be a problem with Mr.
Taft as to whether he should approve
or veto such a bill.
"White House Guest."
It was Borne Joker who referred to
President Taft as a "White House
guest" on the occasion of one of bis
recent fleeting trips to Washington.
Tbe president enjoys being on the wing
and no other man bns been away from
Washington during bis term of office
more than the present cbief magistrate.

hlpodroiiie, section of two Koinan
highways paved with lava, and two
massive Itouian gateways.
Them are several churches (now
mosques) of the early Christian civili

preserved, make them ImiwrUnt lu tbe
history of ltyiautlno architecture. Tbe
principal of these are known to all
students of srchltecture as the mosques
of fit. Hophln, St. fleorge and Bt De

erected by Justinian's architect, An
thenilus. nud It was turned into a
mosque In ft.S9. Its casings of white
marble hnve been copied In several re

In 3.00 A. D. Salonlki was the scene
of a dreadful massacre perpetrated by
the command of Theodosius after the
city had become a defense of the an
cient civilization against barbaric in
roads. Constnutlne repaired its port.
The Slnvonlc trlties strove vainly to
take the city throughout the seventh
century. In the ninth century Simeon
of Itulgnrln came against it because of
an effort to transfer the whole of the
Bulgarian trade to Its port. In 004 the
Sarncens took the place by storm and
sold as slaves 22.(100 of Its inhabitants.
In 1185 tbe Normans laid' a ten day
siege to the city, which ended in its
capture by assault and the perpetra

BEVERLY WANTS WILSON.
East Gloucester, Too, Would Bo Sum
mer Homo of President Elect.
Ilesldents of the Massachusetts north
shore, having had a president in their
midst every summer for four years,
are now hopeful that the honor will
not pass. Beverly has already asked
President Elect Wilson to make his
home there, but It Is East Gloucester
that may bring Massachusetts tbe hon
or of having the president elect as a
summer resident If he deserts the New
Jersey lieach.
Mr. Wilson and hla family spent one
summer nine years ago at East Glou
cester. Professor Stockton Axson of
the Princeton faculty, brother of Mrs.
Wilson, was one of s colony of men
and women with whom the president
elect nud his family stayed. Profes
sor Axson Is now a regular summer
guest in East Gloucester, and other
members of the little colony gather
there also. If they can bring It about
the coining president will make Glou
cester his summer home. .
"THE LINCOLN WAY."
To Mark Route Taken by Emancipa

Pursuant to an act of the Illinois leg
islature a preliminary Investigation of
the route traveled by the Lincoln fam
ily In removing from Iiullaua to Illi
nois lu 1830 has been finished by
Charles M. Thompson, assistant in his
tory nt the University of Illinois.
So fur ns Mr. Thompson was able to
determine, the I.lncolns crossed the
Wnbash river nt Vlnceunes, Ind., and
traveled on the Vlncennes-St Louis
stage road to Lnwreucevlle, where
thoy turned northward, passing
through Palestine, York and Darwin
to Paris. From Paris they appear to
have followed the stiige road through
Charleston to Shelbyvllle, whence they
Journeyed to Decntur. The trustees of
the State Historical library have this
mutter in charge and hope that in a
short time the route, which has been
calliHl "the Lincoln way," will be de

PANAMA CANAL
TOLLS ARE FIXED
Merchant Vessels and Trans
ports to Pay $1.20 a Ton.
SAME AS SUEZ CANAL RATES.
Warships Will Pay 60 Canto a Ton It
Will Pay In Twenty Year Rate
Espocted to Moat Fixed Charges and
Provide Sinking Fund In Ton Years.
In compliance with the Panama ca
nal act President Taft bas Issued a proc
lamation announcing tbe rate of toll
to be paid by tbe vessels passing
through the waterway. The rates til
ed are those recommended by Emery
It. Johnson, profeasor of transportation
and commerce of the University of
Pennsylvania. Tbe president, after
long and careful consideration of the
data, found no reason for making any
change in tbe rates recommended.
Tbe rate for merchant vessels carry
ing passengers and cargo Is $1.20 per
net ton. Each 100 cubic feet of earn
ing spare in tbe ship will be accounted
aa a ton. Vessels in ballast without
passengers are to pay 40 per cent less
than the rate for vessels with passen
gers and cargo.
Warsblis other than transports, col
liers, hospital and supply ships are to
pay SO cents per displacement ton.
Transports and other auxiliaries are to
pay $1.20 per ton. No per capita pas
senger toll will be required. Tbe Suex
passenger toll la about $175 for each
passenger. '
Governments to Bo Notified.
Tbe president's proclamation, togeth
er with tbe rules for tbe measurement
of vessels, which are now in course of
preparation by Professor Johnson, will
be transmitted to tbe various govern
ments with which the United States
bus commercial treaties and relations.
Eight governments will be asked tc
translate the proclamation, togetbet
with tbe rules for measurement, and
direct tbe proper officials to prepare
blanks suitable for the use of all mer
chant vessels that may pass through
the canal. The government will be
asked also to direct tbe measurement
of vessels that will pass through the
canal, so that the proper papers may
be shown to the canal authorities when
tbe ship arrives at either terminal.
Tbe rates approved by tbe president
are practically the same as tbe reduced
rates agreed on for the Suex canal,
which will go into effect In 1913.
The Suex rate per ton on merchant
vessels is to be redncea 50 centimes, ot
to francs, which is the equivalent
of $1,200 (one dollar and twenty and
six-tenths cents). On war vessels the
Panama rates are somewhat blghet
than those of the Suez canal.
It Is estimated by Professor Johnson
that the rates decided upon will pro
duce enough revenue at the end of ten
years, or in 1925, to pay tbe cost of
operation and maintenance, the gov
ernment and sanitation of the canal
zone, Interest on the capital invested
in the canal and the annual payment
of $250,000 to the republic of Panama
nnd to place $3,750,000 in a sinking
fund toward the ultimate amortization
of the investment in the project
Self Sustaining In Twenty Years,
According to Trofessor Johnson's re
port, the Panama canal should be upon
a self sustaining basis in twenty years
He said that it should compete suc
cessfully with the Suez route for tbe
traffic of Europe with South American
west coast points and with New Zea
land, but could not be expected to com
pete successfully for Europe's trade to
the far east ;
Taking the estimates of the canal
commission for the expenses of opera
tion and maintenance of the canal and
for the improvements held to be neces
sary at tbe end of a decade. Professor
Johusou figures that the rate per net
ton can be reduced at the end of ten
years to $1.
The Johnson report shows that a for
eigu traffic of about 9,000.000 tons mny
be expected through the canal in Its
first two years of oiemtion. a traffic
of more than 11.000.000 tons in 1920
nnd 14.000.000 tons iu 1925. Although
not nialntiiiulng that his estimate is
tlnnl. Professor Johnson declared thut
nn increase of 60 per cent u decade iu
tonnage could be looked for.
American coastwise shipping was ex
empted from toll payment by congress.
It wns to this provision of the act that
Great Brltnln diplomatically protest
ed, but no reference to the incident
wns made iu the president's proclama
tion. American uavnl vessels are ex
empted without specific mention either
In the net of congress or the proclama
tion, because the nuthoritles believe it
unnecessary to explain the uselessness
of payment from tho navy department
to the treasury dopartmeut
All Ship Materials Free.
Construing the "free sblpbu'.MIng
materials clause" of the Panama cani.1
act broadly, the treasury department
hns decided to permit free entry into
the United Stntes of practically every
product; raw or manufactured, that
might be used in the construction of
vessels Krupp armor aud guns for
American warships, free ship timber,
hemp, spars, finishings, paints, cloth,
chiuiiware and numberless other articles.
