SAILS FROM FRANCE TODAY
Expected to Take Vp Option on
Stock on Arrival Stocks Fluc
tuate, but Rally on News
of Hi Homecoming.
NEW YORK. An;. 17. E. H. Harri
man's homecoming at this time is
awaited with interest. In view of the
recent reports In Wall street that he
has obtained an option on a controlling
interest in the New Tork Central lines,
which would srive him an ocean-to-ocean
route. But that this is the reason for
his return is but speculation, for no
statement has been made to that effect at
the Union Pacific offices here or by Mr.
Harriman's associates.
It was even said at the TJnlon Pacific
offices today that no word had been re
ceived of his contemplated departure
from Cherbourg tomorrow.
The coincidence of the financier's re
turn at a time when the New Tork Cen
tral rumor cropped out strongest, how
ever, is Interpreted by Wall street gos
sip to mean that he will exercise the op
tion upon his arrival here, covering about
S.'O.OV.OOO worth of stock formerly con
trolled for the most part by the Vander
hilt interests. Because of the conflicting
reports concerning Mr. Harrlman today,
the so-called Harrlman stocks fluctuated
widely and the market generally was un
settled. Union Pacific broke from 2154
to 2MV but late in thep afternoon, when
the report of his homecoming was con
firmed, union Pacific rallied and there
was a general recovery.

mercial Congress promises to be the bat
tlefield for better rate regulation for the
West.
The statement that the war on railroad
rates may break at any time and become
the predominant factor in the delibera
tions of the congress was made today by
Colonel Ike Pryor. of San Antonio, chair
man of the executive committee. Hele
clared that Galveston and Denver busi
ness men will open the fight with a reso
lution demanding that an equitable re
vision of rail and ocean rates between
New York and Denver bej made.
Rail Rates Raised to Denver.
According to Colonel Pryor's statement,
the ocean rate between New York and
Galveston has been low enough to provide
Denver merchants an Incentive to bring
their goods to the Texas port for ship
ment over local lines to Denver, thus
obtaining a reduced rate. It is now
charged that the railways have Increased
the local rail rate between Galveston and
Denver to a point where it is a matter
of choice whether goods are brought by
sea or entirely by rail.
Colonel Pryor alse, was authority for the
statement that the Pinchot-Balllnger
controversy will find no place In the de
liberations of the congress, unless some
hotheaded delegate springs a resolution
on the floor that will precipitate a verbal
battle.
Thomas F. Walsh, millionaire mine
owner of Colorado, and John Barrett. Di
rector of the Bureau of American Repub
lics, were the principal speakers of the
afternoon. Mr. Walsh made a plea for
the opening of vast tracts of Western
land to the Eastern farmer and the city
bred man. He believed that the answer
to crowded tenements lies in the irri
gation of the arid West.
Mr. Barrett spoke of improvements in
relations among the Latln-Ameican
countries. His address in part follows:
The approachlns meeting of the Presidents
of the United States and Mexico at El Paso,
the possible acceptance of Invitations to ths
Presidents of Panama and Cuba to meet the
President o: the United States at New Or
lesns. the widespread growth of Interest in
the construction of the Panama Canal and
the Increasing Investments of United States
capital In" Latin-America give significant
emphasis to tlic Importance of developing
closer trade relations and of improving the
facilities of commerce between the United
States and her alster republics. Legitimate
and uLCesful exploitation of this vast field
south of us depends upon four Important
conditions: First, tariff manipulation which
permits of a reciprocal exchange of com
modities: second, flrst-class mail, passenger
and express steamship service to build up and
care for this trade: third, the establishment
of banks controlled bv United States capital
as agencies of business Just as necessary In
foreign lands as. in the United States, and.
fourth, familiarity and acquaintance with
rhe habits ftnd customs of the Iatin-Ameri-tan
peoples and the local conditions of their
demand and supply.
Xew Tariff Will Help.
He declared the new tariff law far
more favorable than the Dingley bill for
Increased exchange of products between
the two Americas, and said It was almost
mandatory that C'ongresp pass an ocean
mail bill that will provide fast steamer
service. He said our commerce with
Latin America was already, greater than
with Asia, but was only In Its infancy.
He said it was necessary now to prepare
to benefit by the Panama Canal and that
It would be folly to ppend vast sums on
constructing thie waterway with only a
few inferior steamers and with our in
terior waterways unimproved.
Improve Consular Service.
Laverne W. Noies. of Chicago- presi
dent ot the National Business L3ague of
America, delivered an address on the
American consular service in which he
emphasized the value of the consular
agent in creating markets for America.
Truman G. Palmar, of Chicago, spoke
on the sugar beet Indus-try.
Insurance was the topic at the evening
"il
session, and the principal address was
delivered by Samuel Bosworth Smith, of
Chattanooga, president of the American
Life Convention. Hi said that the people
of the Middle West paid in premiums to
lif'j insuranea companies J171.O0C.O0O. He
attacked the new tax on corporations.
It is expected that 2000 more delegates

INDIANS HOLD WATER KEY
Wapato Irrigation Project Is Held
L'p by Redmcn.
NORTH YAKIMA, Wash.. Aug. 17.
(Special.) The fate of the Wapato irri
gation project, which is now ready for the
actual construction work to begin, and
which is intended to reclaim 20.000 acres
of the best land in Yakima County, rests
with the Indian owners of the land.
Under the strict provisions of the law
the Indians would be required to sell
three-fourths of their allotments and
apply the money for water rights for the
remaining one-fourth. This the Indians
refused to do. They are now being of
fered two different forms of contract.
Under one form they may sell 20, 40,
or 60 acres of the allotment and apply
the proceeds on the water rights for the
remainder of the land. Under the other
form they need not sell any land, but
may acquire the water right in the same
manner as white owners, paying for it
in ten annual installments. The lead
ing white men on the reservation are
now doing all in their power to get the
Indians to understand the contracts and
to accept either one, so that the work
on the project may be begun as soon as
possible.

SHARP FIGHT DURING t)AY
Three Companies of Blues Are Vir
tually Annihilated by Colored
Cavalry at Middleboro
Green Battle.
BOSTON. Aug. 17. At the conclusion of
today's maneuvers in the war game, in
which the army of the red, under Briga
dier General Tasker H. Bliss, -is striving
to defeat the army of the blue, com
manded by Brigadier General William A.
Pew, Jr., and capture Boston.' the army
of the red had made a material advance.
Unless General Pew can concentrate
his troops tomorrow morning to meet the
attack of a force that General Bliss has
massed heavily on the -blues' left, his
army faces defeat.
Armies Close Together.
The two armies tonight are less than a
dozen miles apart. From the general di
rection of the movements of General
Bliss and his army, and the strtngth of
his command, the plan whicn he intends
to follow to capture Boston Is appar
ently revealed for the first time. This is
to annihilate General Pew's extreme left,
and to pass that end with a comparative
ly clear road to Boston.
But for the fact that 1 o'clock, when
both armies ceased operations for the
day, arrived a trifle too soon, the plan
would have succeeded today.t Over at
the extreme left of the blue line three
regiments are facing practically the en
tire red army.
General Bliss' southward movement
was one of determination on a settled
plan, with which every organization
was apparently familiar. It was clean
ly executed and gave evidence that the
red scouts had fully posted Information
on the position of the blues. After the
advance of the reds there was never a
sign of hesitation when the blue's out
posts were encountered. They were
either captured or driven in.
At Middleboro Green, Major Charles H.
Cutler, of the Blue army, with three
skeleton companies of the Eighth Infan
try, was encountered and rendered non
combatant In quick time. - While the Con
necticut squadron of cavalry engaged the
Blues' front. Major Grierson. of the Reds,
with his three troops of the Tenth United
States Cavalry (colored), dismounted, and
acting as infantry and supported by two
machine guns, turned the right flank of
the Blues, while at the same moment
Major Brlegman, with the New York
Cavalry, executed a similar movement
on the left.
Engagement Most Severe.
If It had been actual warfare, it is
believed that there would- not have beep
a blue soldier half an hour after the en
gagement began.
Today's battle took place under condi
tions strongly resembling those of the
Peninsular campaign about Richmond In
the Civil War. These country. roads, for
days inches deep in the dust of a long
Summer drought, were changed into riv
ers of mud by the most severe northwest
rain storm of the Summer. The soldiers
suffered severely.
The suspension of hostlities brought
no relief, as the rain continued in tor
rents. TAFT SEES ENEMY'S VESSELS

Part of Attacking Force.
BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 17. Four large
Army transports, loaded with troops and
having hostile intentions against the har
bor defenses of Boston, was the sight
that met the eyes of President Taft when
he gazed across Salem Bay today.
0CEAN.FAU.S AFTER QUAKE
Three Sliocks at Acalpuleo on Mon
day, All Severe.
MEXICO CITY, Aug. 17. A delayed dis
patch from Acapulco says three severe
earthquake shocks were felt there Mon
day. The ocean dropped far aelow Its
normal and along the entire shore line
of the port the beach was exposed for
a distance of 30 feet.
The shocks are believed to have been
those registered at the Washington ob
servatory. The people of Acapulco are
still living in the open, not having ven
tured to return to their homes.
Slight Quake Recorded.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 17. The seismo
graph at the weather bureau .in this city
recorded a slight tremor of the earth at
2:22 o'clock this afternoon, but in the
opinion of the observers this disturbance
did not assume the proportion of an
earthquake. . .
