KTTTATION IV PANAMA
CONSIDERED CRITICAL
(Copyright 1902 by United Prea As.
' aoclations.)
Panama, June 2. Never In the po
litical history of thla country haa the
situation been at such a fever heat ai
It I today, nor hi It ever contained
such possibilities of real danger. The
most conservative buslneaa men are
predicting revolution and demanding
the Interference of the United States.
Threata of dynamiting tha Panama
canal works are freely made and It Is
constantly feared an effort will be
made to blow up the Hotel Rlvoll,
The presidential election will be held
tha last week In June or the first
week In July and trouble la expected
at that time. Double guards have
been placed around all store house
where dynamite Is kept and every
precaution la being taken to prevent
an outbreak,
The. thing most desired Is tor the
United States to duplicate Its action
in connection with Cuba and establish
military rule at once, assuming eon
trol of the Panama government Both
conservatives and liberals wish this,
And there Is much talk of It
It la alleged that the campaign for
the presidency haa been tit most
corrupt in the htatory of the country.
Senor Artaa la the candidate of the
constitutional .party against Obaldla.
It Is alleged the men in charge of the
registration offices have sent out for
mal notices that a fair election would
be held, and later distributed confl
dentlal letterj ordering their hench
men to see th it none but men favoring
Arals reach the polls on election day.
It Is reported that one of these let
ters haa reached Taft As a result of
Taft's visit the registration lists are
being revised under the supervision of
Americans. The United States has no.
tifled the local government that the
election must be fair and orderly.
This is taken to mean that In case of
trouble military control will ensue at
once.
It la predicted on all sides that If
Senor Arias Is elected there will be a
revolution. Minister Squlers haa been
called to Washington to discuss the
situation with Roosevelt and the cab
inet. It is charged that the minister
has been supporting Arias. This al
legation has aroused great sentiment
against Squlers.

the attitude of the veterans toward
Taft's reference to General Grant be
ing addicted to drink.
Dalzeil .declares the veterans are
surprised and shocked.. The state
ment surpasses their understanding.
He asked: "Would Taft have made
this remark had Grant been alive and
present to resent it?"
Taft says his reference to Grant's
drinking and leaving the army before
the was was ended on that account,
was because he believed It to be a
well known fact and thought It to
Grant's credit because he overcame
the liquor habit later. The remarks

PARASITES FIGHT
GYPSY MOTHS
OVER 100,000 LET
LOOiE AS EXPERIMENT
Part of Campaign Inaugurated by
State and Nnlloiial Agricultural
Authorities Against Destructive
Pests Four Different Varieties of
Flks and Beetles Expected to Do
tlie Work.
Boston, June 1. Over 100,000
moth-destroying parasites have been
let loose from the experiment station
at Melrose Highlands this month, as
a result of the campaign Inaugurated
by the national and state arglcultural
authorltiea against, the deatructive
gypiiy and brown-tall moths. Four
distinct varieties of .parasitlo flies
and beetles have been used In such
experiment .
The large colosma beetles, as well
as two other species closely allied to
them, climb the trees, seise the cater
plller and never let go until they have
devoured the wriggling Insect The
tachlnld files lay their eggs upon the
outer skin of the catterplllnrs usually
clous up to the head. The larvae that
hatch penetrate the skin of the cater
pillar and feed upon its Intestines.
Another group of parasites deposit
eggs Inside the skin of the caterpil
lar, and there is another parasite, a
minute midge, that drills Into the
eggs of the caterpillar and lays Its
eggs Inside. The larvae of the para
site feed upon the contents of the
caterpillar's eggs until ready to
emerge. Some of these flies also en
ter tht nests or winter webs of the
brown tall moths and there operate
upon the hibernating caterpillars dur
ing the winter months.
The scientists say there - Is every
reason to believe that In time these
paranltes will accomplish the prac
tical suppression of the gypsy moth
here as they have In Europe.
The present experiment Is regard
ed as the most Important that has
been tried In the war against the
gypsy moth.
The workers at ths experiment ta
tton, who include trained naturalists
from the department of agriculture
In Washington, assert that there Is no
likelihood that the parasites them
selves will prove to be Undesirable
additions to New England Insect life
at all the Imported species which are
found to be. in any way dangerous
have been rejected. It Is the theory
of the scientists that after the para,
sites have reduced the ranks of the
gypsy and brown tail moths they will
themselves become fewer in number
from lack of food supply. ,

of tha delegates as sleeted and It will
bs a ease of ths administration candi

tht allies la that a sufficient cumber
of contests may bs decided against
Tart by ths national committee, aa to
prolong tha fight beyond tha first

From present appearances, there Is
tittle prospect of a victory for tha
allies. A Utile leas than 100 contests
art lo bs decided by tha committee.
but Taft la almost certain of secur
ing enough of tht contested sAu to
assure his nomination , without a
struggle.
it Is generally understood that Har
ry S. New of Indiana, chairman of
the national commutes, ia a Taft man.
although ths thirteen, congressional'
districts of his ttsta of Indiana have
declared solidly for Vice President
Fairbanks. Mr. Fairbanks and Mr.
New, however, bars not hitched In
recent years, and for that matter ths
tit between Senator Beverldga and
Mr. Fairbanks Is not of tht stoutest
kind. Senator Hsmenway, Mr. Bar.

the Beverldge men say that Fair

on ths first ballot, they intlraats that
it will bs of tht perfunctory ."wo ax

known that Mr. Fairbanks la to bavs
a bunch of delegates from tht south
ern states and expects support from
other quarters.
Between now and convention time
ths struggls will bs to control tha na
tional committee. In limes past no
tably In KS4, ths convention upsst
recommendations of ths national
committee, and In 1191 tha antl-Har-
rlion men at first controlled tha na
tional committee only to lost It and
aa a result scores of federal office
holders wore seated aa delegates and
President Harrison as a reuslt , was
nominated on the first ballot only
to, be overwhelmingly defeated at th
polls. The republican who eaptursd
control of ths national commute
from Quay, Piatt Ctarkson, Fo raker
and . Wolcott and their friends and
used thla control to seat tha federal
officeholder contestants was John O
New, Harrison's consul general ta
London, and father of Harry New.
Harry New went torough this fight
