' II ASKS NATION'S HID Waterways Convention Pass es Strong Resolutions. MUST OPEN SHIP CANALS Kailroads Cannot Keep Pace With Volume of Business Shonts Speaks Against Operation of Kailroads by Commission. CHIfAOO. Oct. 9. Adoption of reso lutions deilrlnfc the opening of a deep channel connecting the ret Lake, with the Oulf of Mexico to be an Im perative dutv of the General Govern ment, and that thla work should be Immediately begun and finished as soon as possible: selection of New Or leans fur the next convention, and re election of old officers were the feat ures of the close of the session today of the Oulf Ieep Waterways Associa tion. Theodore P. Shonts. of New York, attacked violently the system of oper ation of railroads by commlslsons. This svsteni." Mr. Shonts declared. "Is wholly un-American and In viola tion of the first principles of free ov ernment." Mr. Shonts described the workings of the New York Public Service Commissions. "State regula tion under such a statute." he said. "Is In effect state prohlbltoln of new en terprise and is state operation of ex isting railroads. What is the result? Transportation development In New York Is not parlyxed it Is dead." Waterways Aid Railroads. Mr. Shonts said In part: "The widening- and deepening of the waterway built by nature between the likes and the Gulf has become a mat t-r of National and. In fact. Interna tlonnl Importance, on account of the effect which it promises to nave on our commerce with other countries, u is, therefore, entitled to the active sup oatrlot of America. "I t'.ilnk I fairly represent the general sentiment of their officers when I say that the railroads of the country do not look upon your enterprise with unfriend- lv eves, beoaiwe we realise tnat mis wora finished will make It possible and nothinr else short of the expenditure of appallina- sums of money could for us to handle the commerce which la certain to follow the return and firm establishment of National prosperity." Mr S.onu declared because of hos tile lei!ntion and fear of owners of railroad securities that they will not be allowed to manatee their own properties, the railroad development of the country is at a complete standstill, and there can be no return of prosperity that will stay until the railroads are fairly treated. Mr. Shonts declared that the greatest obstacle that the steam railroads have to overcome. If they are permitted to op prate and expand as the traffic of the country grow. Is the privilege of ade uuate terminals, and the opening of this waterway would greatly aid In the solu tion of this question. Rather than see this condition become general and permanent," he said. "I. as a railroad man. would prefer Government ownership and operation of the railroads. dangerous aa that would be lor tne main tenance of our liberty." In conclusion, Mr. Shonts expressed the belief that the tendency toward. operation of railroads by commissions is not deep-rooted in the public mlrud and will not long remain after the sub ject Is thoroughly studied. John A. Ockerson. member or me Mississippi Kiver Commission and re cent delegate from the United States to the International Congress of Navi gation, held In St. Petersburg, told "What Europe Is Doing With Water ways." Adopt Strong Resolutions.. Strong resolutions were adopteti de claring It to be the Imperative doty of the United States to assume control of the Improvement and extension of the waterways of the country, in a1ew of the failure of the railroads U keep pace with the development of the transportation business of the Nation. The resolutions further demand that If the current revenues of the country are not sufficient to carry out vigor ously the comprehensive Improvement scheme involved, the Government be empowered to Issue bonds for the pur pose. The resolutions lay special stress on the necessity for a great main trunk waterway from the great bakes to the Gulf aa the basis of the general water way scheme. STEWART MUST GO Army Retiring Board Decides Against Colonel. PRESIDENT'S DUTY TO ACT FLEET SAILS FOR JAPAN LEAVES MANILA AHEAD OF ITS SCHEDCLE TIME. Citizens, Unaware of Change In Plans, Make So Farewell Demonstration. MANILLA. Oct. 10 The 1 big battle ships of the Atlantic fleet are now en route to Japan. Sailing orders were given by Rear-Admiral Charles N. Sperry. for the fleet to depart two hours earlier thaa the time announced yesterday, and at o'clock this morn ing the flagship Connecticut got under way. Half an liour later all of the great ships were in motion and fol lowed the Conocticut down the bay. In the brilliantly sunlit" morning the majestic line of warships presented a magnificent appearance, their white sides glistening as they moved slowly out to sea. The public had not been warned of the change In the hour of departure. and few witnessed it. There was consequently no ceremony or demonstration of any kind, save the dipping of tlags by the merchantmen and the whistling salutes by the launches In the bay. By 8:45 o'clock the long line had cleared Corregldor Island. at the mouth of the bay. and headed north into the China Sea. Slmultanously with the departure of the fleet the authorities of Manila started a new aampaign to eradicate cholera. The police were ordered to make two house-to-house inspections dailv. ami the constabulary, which has been reirtforced. will perform ordinary police duxy and guard Infected houses. The dlsifectlng force has been In creased, and the general scope of the work broadens. The number of new cases reported averages! ten dally. Verdict Believed to Be Based on Physical Incapacity of Fort . Grant Exile Hearing Held in Star Chamber. WASHINGTON, Oct. 9. The Army Retiring Board, v.-hlch has been In vestigating the condition of health of Colonel W. F.' Stewart, the so-called Fort Grant exile, concluded Its work today, and while the result of the de liberations was not officially made public. It Is understood that the board found Colonel Stewart to be so seriously afflicted with valvular disease of the heart as to Incapacitate him for active service in the Army. The finding which has been agreed upon will be reported to the Secretary of War probably to morrow, and It is considered likely that Colonel Stewart's retirement by the President will follow. If not retired. Colonel Stewart would still have more than four years' active service, and as he Is one of the oldest artillery corps officers, his friends de clare he would stand a good chance of reaching the grade of Brigadier-General before leaving the active service. If retired he will receive three-fourths of his regular pay, or about 400 a month. Stewart Defends Himself. Before the board took the subject up in executive session today, it heard a somewhat detailed statement by Colonel Stewart, relative to his record In the Army, and listened to brief argu ments by Colonel Stewart's counsel and Recorder Howard, who spoke tor the service. Colonel Stewart was not permitted to go outside his medical record, and when his attorney made an effort to elicit from nim th-j circumstances un der which he had been transferred from Fort Barrancas. Fla.. to Fort Frant. Aria.. Captain Howland Interposed posi tive objection,- which was sustained by the board. In his statement. Colonel Stewart said that he had been in the habit of taking horseback tides of from 20 to SS miles a day for many years. He stated that he had been in the service for almost 40 yvara and added that there were enly four officers having a longer record. Reviews Client's Record. The arguments of counsel were brief, Mr. LAtimer for Colonel Stewart, con tenting himself with a review of his client's service, which he said had been the subject of muca favorable comment, the only criticism being by General Grant, who said that Colonel Stewart was an able and efficient officer, but that his "Efficiency was marred by Irascibility." Captain Howland. in reply, contended that there was but one Issue before the board, and that was wneiner loiuu.i Stewart is now seriously afflicted with heart disease as to be Incapable of per forming his duties as an officer of the Army. He declared also that notwith standing Colonel Stewart's long record he had spent only six months of that time In the fleld. NEGLECTS WIFE FOR WARD Seattle Woman Objects to Familiar ity and Sues for Divorce. SEATTLE, Wash., Oct. . (Special.) Alleging that her husband's infatuation for Marie Broaklund, or Marie Lund, as she Is sometimes known, is such as to cause him to neglect the business of the Hirsch Pharmacy Company, of which he is manager, and to squander large sums of money on his ward, Christine S. Hirsch is suing for a divorce from Thomas C. Hirsch, in the Superior Court today. . The evidence of Mrs. Hirsch, who was on the stand this morning, was that her husband had insisted upon adopting the girl, who is to 'all appearances a woman of maturity, and bringing her to their home to live. She also alleged that he had living rooms fitted up In the rear of the pharmacy at First avenue and Pike street, where she said it was his habit to carouse and drink.
