Tbeodore Roosevelt's whirlwind tour of
the Weet baa not helped him in the
fight that will tie made a4 the pri
maries In this atate thin month.
Some of the viewa advanced bv the
Colonel do not meet with the approval
, of the men of his parly, for New Vorlc
te not Kansas. Besides, the feeling
that Taft was practically if not entire
ly Ignored by Roosevelt, has caused the i
President's friends to lose much of the
Interest that tbey displayed earlier in
the contest.
What Is Roosevelt's Idea, anyway?"
said one member of the state committee
who voted for the man from Ovster Bay
'at that memorable meeting. "He Is all
' to the s;ood when he makes a fight
against the old gang in this state, for
they are thoroughly discredited, but
does Roosevelt think for a moment
that he can win a battl In this state
by throwing Taft in the discard?
Xrw York Polllklan Talk.
"I hold a Federal office and may be
prejudiced. Kut during the past week
I have heard from dozena and dozens
of Republicans, who believe that Roose
velt now regards himself as the whole
snow, and resent his action bitterly.
They say that Roosevelt seems to be
making a campaign for President or
something years before the conventions,
and they believe that he should restrain
himself, even if he does not rare to
do so."
The man who gave out this Inter
view holds one of the big Federal of
rices. He has always been a warm
friend of Roosevelt, but he believes
This Individual does not care to I
openly break with Roosevelt, but prl
rstely he Is very free In voicing his
complaints. He advised against Roose
velt's Western trip at the time, on the
ground that It would be bad politics,
but he was overruled bv other ad
visers of the ex-President, who Insisted
on a "triumphal tour."
It is now understood that the extent
of Roosevelt's Western trip wss due to
the Insistence of Gifford Ptnrhot and
James R. Garfield. The original plan
was for a hasty dash, to Cheyenne, and
n equally rapid trip back. The
Cheyenne engagement had been made
months ago. But after Ftnchot and
Garfield went to Pagamore Hill a pre
tentious campaign was mapped out.
The New fork Republicans were
strongly opposed to the idea. One of
the leading objectors was Collector
l.oeh, and It was because of his pro
tests thst the story wss set afloat that
Rooserelt and Ma ex-secretary had
come to the parting of the ways.
IiOfb Take Part In Play.
I.oeb la really the best politician In
the Roosevelt crowd In this state. He
Is fond of Roosevelt, and equally fond
of Taft. Loco was quick to see that a
Roosevelt tour, in which Taft was Ig
nored, would only serve to widen the
spilt In the party. And he impressed
nis views on the close friends of Roose
velt until they bees me angry.
"Tea are using the Colonel for your
own selfish ends." Loeb told Garfield at
Oyster Bay. "You will not help yourself
a bit. and only make things worse for
u. ana easier for the Democratic
party. -
This speech was reported to Roose
veit. and he and his ex. secretary
almost came to a break over It. Ixeb
repeated his words, and declared that
what he said waa due to his friendli
ness for Taft and his predecessor in
ine suriace things were
smoothed over, but there Is still a
coolness between Roosevelt and Ieh.
Discouraging reports have been re
ceived from upstate since Roosevelt
went "on the road." Countlea that were
prepared to line up against Barnes and
wooarorr are on the fence now that It
seems that Roosevelt has cut loose from
Taft. Leaders are dlaposed to mark
time until they find out exactly where
inev stand. .

a position to line up with him. Conse
quently they are "playing safe" for the
present.
Taft'a Attitude Made Known.
The attitude of the President can be
stated in these words. Mr. Taft is
anxious to hare a Republican victory in
inia state, where so (jnurh is Involved.
He would like to see The Old Guar
Roosevelt and Repunlicana generally, get
ius-i't. on a piairorm endorsing his
Administration, and providing for cer

Fighting Bob." as he Is best known to
Ca':lfornlans. based Ms preference on
Sen Francisco's prominence, present
and future, as a great seaport. In a
statement tonight he said:
San Francisco la pre-eminently the
city for the Panama Canal exposition.
This exposition should be held west of
the canal and not east of the canal. It
means more to the West than it does to
the Rest. The exposition is peculiarly
associate, with maritime affairs. It
ought, therefore, to be held where a
marine demonstration ran be carried
out successfully.
Naval Pageant )Kentlal.
A great naval pageant Is one of the
most Important features of an expo
sition celebrating the opening of the
Panama Canal. San Francisco Is Ideal
ly fitted for such a naval demonstra-
lion. The entrance of the North At
lantic fleet through the Golden Gate
after Its trip around Cape Horn Is still
fresh In the memory of everyone who
witnessed the stirring picture. With
the co-operation of the governments of
the world that picture will be sur
passed. The right place will he where the
citizens of the Coast states agree la
best. I second their choice of San
Francisco. There could be no more
dramatic episode than a world's fair
which Is the guest of a rity wiped
from the fare of the earth less than
five yenra sgo. but now rebuilt so
that even traces of that catastrophe
have to be hunted for. The Pacific
Coast has already demonstrated Its
right to a truly international event by
the skill and business Judgment with
which It developed the Alaska-Yukon-
Pacific Exposition.
"The Panama Canal will be an
achievement unparalleled In hlstorv.
It will mean much to every nation of
tiie world, but It will mean most to
the vast territory along the Pacific
Coast of the Cnlted States. It Is the
legitimate excuse, if one were needed.

Falling Rock Kills Workmen in

TEN OTHERS ARE INJURED
Heavy Wall In Vndergrotind Work
of Erie Railroad Breaks and
Buries. Laborers Four Vic
tims Are Americans.
NEW YORK, Sept. 11. At least nine
laborers were killed outright today,
and ten others were Injured in the col
lapse of an overhanging shoulder of
rock from above tile western mouth of
the o)d Erie tunnel which connects the
Erie terminal in Jersey City with the
westward division.
Of the known dead four were Ameri
cans, three were" unidentified and two
were foreigners.
For several years the Erie has been
working at the gigantic task of carv
ing an open cut for its passenger
trains through the solid rock of Bergen
Hill, which in some spots is 300 feet
high.
The cut was opened for travel not
long ago, but there still remains the
task of hewing a common portal for
the old tunnel and the new cut out
of the ledge where they will meet west
of the boulevard. It was there that
the fall came today.
A wall of rock from four to ten feet
thick still separates the two sets of
traiks. and eight sets of drills were
pounding away at it today. Their jar
loosened a strip of rock 40 feet wide
and feet high. It peeled off like
wa'llpaper and toppled onto the spot
where the men were tearing down
brick work at the mouth of the old
tunnel. They were buried under a
mass of debris. s

Honorary Commercial Commission
ers" From Coast Cities to Reach
Shanghai September 16, on
Board Ship Korea.
HOXOU'U', Sept. 11. rSpecial.) With
the arrival of the steamphip Korea at
Shanghai, on JVlday, the party of busi
ness men representing the Associated
Chambers of Commerce of those states
bordering the Pacific Coast, will have
reached the first city in their itinerary,
comprising the principal cities of China.
In order to better familiarize themselves
with commercial conditions in the Ori
ent and that thereby trade between the
Pacific Coast states and China may be
stimulated, the Journey was undertaken
The party, officially known as "Honor
ary Commercial Commissioners," arrived
in Honolulu August 30, and were enter
tained a day. guests of the loral Cham
ber of Commerce. The day spent in the
Islands was occupied in sightseeing trips
to the numerous points of interest.
Trip Termed "Visit to China."
The trip is officially termed a "Visit
to China."
These commissioners are 22 in num
ber, representing California, Oregon.
Washington and -Hawaii, ami drawn
from the Chambers of Commerce of
nine cities Portland, Honolulu, Irfis
Angeles. Oakland, San Diego, San
Francisco. Seattle, Spokane and Ta-coma-
With the press representatives
and secretaries, nd the ladies and
cniiaren wno accompanv tne commis-
'sioners, the party arriving at Hono
lulu numbers 40 persons in ail. The
two commissioners from the Chamber
of Commerce at Honolulu joined them
here, and the party left for the Orient
August 31.
Soon after leaving San Francisco the
commissioners organized for the trip.
This organization was completed with
out difficulty and the various com
mittees appointed began at once the
serious consideration of the work laid
out for them.
The trip has been undertaken in a
spirit of earnest inquiry and that no
effort will be spared to make it pro
ductive not only of information, but
of definite result along the lines on
which the expedition has set forth
the cementing of the friendly relation
now existing between the United States
and China, and the stimulation of the
trade between the two countries.
The commissioners have gone to
China at the invitation of the- Chamber
of Commerce of that country, and thus
they will be put in a position to ob
tain, under circumstances of peculiar
and unusual advantage, the informa
tion necessary to an understanding of
the conditions that govern the com
merce between China and America.
The members of the party are en
thusiastic in regard to the opportuni
ties presented to them on this .trip and
the determination Is expressed by them
all that the facts shall be learned to
the fullest extent and presented to the
commercial bodies of the Pacific Coast
to 'the end that they may go further.
If necessary, and reach the United
States Government Itself. Yv hetlier
these facts prove creditable to Amer
ica or not, there will he no glossing
them over, no distortion In the least.
The chief figure in this expedition
Is Captain Rohert Dollar, a pioneer
shipper of the Pacific Coast, and a man
of more than ten years' experience in
transpacific commerce. Captain Dol
lar is of Inestimable service to such
an expedition, for he not only has ex
ceptional knowledge of conditions in
China and of the circumstances under
which this visit is made, but he also
enjoys the confidence and friendship
of the principal men in Chinese offi
cial and business life. The commis
sioners are working along lines sug
gested by Captain Dollar and under
his advice.
Young Man at Helm.
The president of the commission, and
the man whose broad shoulders must
carry most of the responsibility dur
ing this visit to China, .Is Willis H.
Booth, of Los Angeles, the president of
the Associated Chambers of Commerce.
Although a young man, Mr. tooth Is a
man of force and enterprise and is es
pecially happy as a presiding officer.
The ouick and effective organization
of the committee and the avoidance of
the reefs that have been struck on sim
ilar expeditions was due to his skill In
this particular branch of navigation.
The committee upon whose erncinecy
the most depends during tiie coming
days In China is the committee on pub
licity and censorship. This committee
has for its chairman E. K. Blaine, of
Seattle, one of. the leading attorneys of
the Pacific Northwest, and a man who
has given years of study to the Oriental
situation and its relation to American
affairs. Mr. Blaine was one of the
commissioners to-Japan In 1908 and he
has traveled extensively in China.
Among the subjects to be considered
by the committee on publicity 'and cen
sorship, as outlined so far by the com
mittee's deliberations, are the question
of Immigration, the consular service.
monetary exchange, exhibition in China
of American products and manufac
tures, and,- of course, the exchange o
commodities between the two countries.
Into this consideration enter such ar
ticles as cokeing coal and iron ore from
China, lumber, fruits, flour, and the
manufactured silk from the United
States, and all articles which may be
made part of the trade between the
two nations.
The commissioners are to investi
gate and report upon the Internal de
velopment of China, her progress with
railroad building, the use of electrical
energy, the improvement or rivers,
harffors and canals, as well as the
changes In her general government and
the question of extra-terrltoriality.
both of which topics are of immediate
interest- and significance.
The party will arrive at Shanghai, in
China, on September 16. and, after visit
ing some 25 cities of that country, ex
pect to disband at Hongkong on No
vember 7. It is possible that a visit
may be made to Manila before the trip
la completed. After disbanding, mem
bers will make special trips in Japan
and some will continue around the
world.
