Zimmerman's amend taeota to the frmaohta for -the pi'upoaed automatic telephone system la this city were passed at tbe special meeting of the- council yesterday afternoon, after which the franchise was Ordered ' pub lianeo. The amendments provide that the company must Install an automatic system, ana uiat no caanirea in the make of phone shall be niade without the consent of the council; that 1,00 'phones must be working before any charge la exacted of subscribers; that the. police1 patrol telephone ayatent must be ready for operation within M day after the automat to system Is In tailed. and that not more than two blocks of street may be closed at one time while the corporation Is laying the under ground conduits. ' Those who favored publishing the or dinance were Councllmen Albee, Fleget, Foeller, Sharkey, Whiting and Zimmer man; those . opposed were Council men Bberrett, Rumelln and Merrill. . "The reasonJ desire to Insert the word 'automatic in that franchise Is to prevent these people from selling out to the Pacific States Telephone Tele graph company." said Councilman Zim merman ' yesterday. . "If the franchise' Is granted without providing for the In stallation of the automatic system this company will be able to aell out to tbe other company at any time. It it .Is designated In the franchise thai noth ing but the automatic system shall be Installed, the other company cannot ac quire the franchise, for it Is under eon tract to tike nothing but the Bell teak phone for a number of years.1-, ; ; UNIVERSITY PARK : ' ; - PLANS IMPROVEMENT "-The nfvertlty Park Civic Improve ment club la one of Xbe snoot active or ganisations of Its sort in the city, and ita members are doing much toward the.

Commerce Will Aid President ' In Settling Pan ; ama's Transportation, f GENERAL ERI3T0W WAS INTERROGATION MARK Asked ; Questions on Which An swers Depends Much of the ; ' Prosperity of Coast. The navigation '.committee of ''the chamber, of commerce will- gather data for the use of 'General J. I Brlatow, special Panama railroad commissioner, In making up his report to ' President Roosevelt, from which the president will determine bis policy In the management or the Panama railroad, tbe disposition of transportation facilities there-and the Pacific Mall contract. General Brlatow departed this morn ing ror the aound cities, on bis way to Washington, having made a tour of the Paclflo coast from Panama' to Seattle. He was entertained at luncheon at. the Arlington club by President W. H. Wheelwright of the chamber of com merce, ' whose guests - were: General Brlstow and his secretary, J. T. Watson, W. - J. Burns, Samuel ConnelL B. A. Worthington and Allen - Lewis. Ques tions of rates, and competitive rail and water lines from the. Facli.o to the At lantic coast, ware Informally discussed. General Brlstow left Portland strongly Impressed with the position of the cham ber of commerce In favor of the govern ment operating the. Panama, railroad practically at cost and offering a free field and no favors in transportatloa across the Isthmus ' and ' for all ocean transportation lines on both sides. : VaclSe Kail CeatraeV . The transportation men of the cham ber do not believe it feasible for the government to operate a-steamship line between Colon and New Orleana or New York, to the satisfaction of commercial Interests of either coast , Regarding the Pactno .Mall ' and ' Its present contract with the Panama railroad,' much inter est is shown by the chamber. In Janu ary, this year, the-secretary of war In formed the Paclflo Mall Steamship com-! pany that the government would. If It so desired, abrogate tbe existing exclu-j slve contract for transporting commodi ties . and .malls across the Isthmus, at the expiration -of six months from the, date of the notice. The government la, now In a position to cancel the contract and open the railroad - to competitive business in July. : General Brlstow asked the navigation . committee' of the cham ber whether, la Its opinion, there were other steamship companies doing busi ness between Paclflo coast points and Panama with which the Panama railroad J oould -enter Into trafflo arrangements more advantageous to the public than are those now existing with the Paclflo Mall conipany.- The committee's reply ' Bast Oould Compete. -"Just at present we are not aware that there are any such companies now lo cated on this coast. But we believe that there la more than one such on the Atlantlo coast 'which, - if given the chance, would gladly put into commis sion a fleet that oould handle tbe busi ness on both coasts fully as well aa the Paclflo 'Mall does." The fact that the Paclflo Mall Steamship company is pro tected by the Panama railroad, and by the transcontinental rail lines, is suffi cient reason why no other, steamship line has ever attempted to compete for the business across the Isthmaa, J. T., Watson, secretary to General Brlatow,. referring to conditions on the Isthmus, aald: Tbe tsvo conspicuous features of life on the isthmus are. the canal and the yellow fever. . Tbe United States govern ment la working out both problems. Tbe Panama railroad will probably be oper ated by the government, at least until the canal is finished. This railroad was built about f 0 years ago by a syndicate that secured xrom the Colombian govern ment an exclusive franchise to transport all commodities and passengers across ths Isthmus. . When' the fTencn ' com pany Undertook to bund a canal It waa confronted by this - franchise, and waa forced to buy tbe - ianma railroad. The -United States, la purchasing the from the French company, also acquired the railroad and five steam. ships, three i of them owned and ' two chartered by the Panama railroad steam ship line, operating between) Colon and New Orleans or New Tork. There Is a question whether this line shall be sold by the government. rever-Oarrytag .Wwqutto, ksa It was bent.

Tellow fever la being stamped out at Panama by American sanitary methoda It is now conceded by the best aathort ties that yellow fever is spread by tbe bite of a certain mosquito that ta bred in the open rain barrels and sewera This . Insect Is a female, and no other kind will cause the fever. It Is called the "yellow-legged female mosquito.' Systematio . methods hare been com menced to exterminate It by fumiga tion. : All rain barrels are required to be kept covered; the open sewers that have run through the atreats win be abollahed and covered sewers subs tt tuted.
