The people we met were most inter

that Thaw, released on bail, would not
be a menace to the community. He said
that the investigation of the commis
slon was inadequate in that it took no
account of the evidence introduced at
earlier Inquiries into Thaw's sanity.
He cited the case of James W. Davis,
whom, he said. Dr. George A. Blumer,
a member of the Thaw commission, re
leased from restraint as an insane per
son.
Davis, he went on, recovered his san
ity, but, on obtaining his freedom,
promptly chopped off the head pf his
sister-in-law, the erson regarding whom
he cherished delusions.
This imlied comarisou of Thaw and
Davis fanned the risoner's hatred into
new name.
Thaw's "aeal to the people" Is be
lieved to have been prepared without
the aid of his counsel. It bears in
ternal evidence of being a purely Thaw
production.

their carcasses, the flesh .turning com

NEW YORK. March 14. Exemption
of coastwise shipping using the Pan
ama Canal from the payment of tolls
would mean a loss for the. first 10
years of J20.000.000. Professor Emory
R. Johnson, of the University of Penn
sylvania, said tonight at the 26th an
nual dinner of the University of Penn
sylvania men of New York. This loss,
ho said, would have to be borne by the
taxpayers of the United States.
Professor Johnson was appointed
special United States Commissioner of
Panama traffic tolls by President Taft
will be necessary .to secure revenues
- Another speaker was Lindley M.
Garrison, Secretary of War.
Revenue Must Be 910,250,000.
"To enable the canal to carry itself
commercially without being a continu
ous burden on the taxpayers of the
country," Professor Johnson said, "it
will eb necessary to secure revenues
of 119,250,000 per annum. The total
is made up of $3,500,000 for annual
maintenance and operation,. $500,000
for canal sanitation. $250,000 payable
as an annuity to t!e republic of Pan
ama, $11,250,000 to cover the interest
at 3 per cent on the $375,000,000 in
vested in the canal and $3,750,000 to
provide a. sinking fund of 1 per cent
to return tp the treasury the cost of
the canal during the next 50 years.
"This revenue must be secured only
from the tells collected from theves
sels that ui.c the canal. If all vessels
paid tolls the revenue of the canal at
the end of lt years would cover the
annual outlay for operating expenses
and charges on capital. If the owners
of American ships engaged in the
coastwise trade are excused from the
payment of tolls the revenues will not
suffice to make the canal self-supporting.
Exemption Increases Burden.
"To exempt coast-rise ships from the
payment of tolls means a decrease of
at least $20,000,000 in revenue during
the first 10 years and means the addi
tion of that amount to the burdens to
be carried by the taxpayers of the
country.
. "The adherence to sound business
principles in the management of the
canal is predicted by business pru
dence. The adherence to the principle
of neutrality in the management of
the canal is a larger question involv
ing our relations to foreign countries.
From 1859 to August 24, 1912, the
United States adhered strictly and
wisely to the doctrine of neutrality in
the use of an isthmian canal by all
nations on terms of equality."

WIGS T0vRAISE BIG HOTEL
Hostelry Ordered to Move Out
Eclipse of Hairdresser. .
of
PARIS. March 14. (Special.) An ex
traordinary situation has been created
in Nice by the decision of the local
tribunal in a case brought against one
of the finest and newest hotels in the
town by a hairdresser and wigmaker
carrying on business in a street at the
side of the hotel.
The hairdresser sued the proprietor
of the hotel on the ground that his
light had been spoiled by the height
of the building that had been put up
so near him, that his wigmaking re
quired a strong light, and was in
reality a work of art of great value.
He merely asked that the hotel be
pulled down.
The extraordinary thing is that judg
ment has been given in the hairdres
ser's favor, and the hotel proprietor has
been ordered to take down a building
representing a vast sum of money. The
hotel proprietor has naturally deter
mined to appeal. y

Justly proud of their beautiful Gothic
cathedral, the people of Antwerp are
alarmed to learn that its splendid tow

away of the stonework. The work of
renovation will be both difficult and
hazardous. Some fear it will be nec
essary to demolish the belfry and re
build it
A large platform is to be constructed
on the roof of the cathedral, and from
this will arise a scaffolding completely
surrounding, without touching, the
tower. The work will be costly, but it
is felt that no effort should be spared
to preserve this splendid specimen of
14th century work.

Answer: I heartily recommend the use

then thoroughly cleanse the nostrils

day by snuffing the water from the
palm of the hand through the nostrils;
after which make a balm by- mixing a
teaspoonful of vilane powder with on

the nostrils daily. Internal treatment
