necessary steps toward the conclusion of
a new treaty, which, while following to

many ways will be simpler. As regards tho

Tress reporter at the hotel whore he haa
temporarily established his legation.
"My plana?" he suld. "It Is, perhaps, ft
Uttle premature for me to speak. I shnll
call at the State department tomorrow and
It will depend largely on my confidence
with the officials there how rapidly canal
negotiations can proceed. We wlBh to go
ahead a soon as possible and to. show that
we shall not tolerate the delay and pro
crastination with which the Colombian
canal negotiations dragged along to their
final failure. It Is my desire and that of the
people of Panama that unnnecessury red
tnpe and formality, so far as dignity will
permit, shall be waived and that we con
clude and sign a treaty with the Washing

"To the Isthmian government the canal Is

Why should we wait? We are both of good

The minister at this point reiterated
strongly his declaration of yesterday that
he was In no way connected with the Pa

"How' soon do you expect to be recog

was asked.
"Very shortly." was the reply. France

the Washington government's high motives
which Inspired the recent action of the I

Is no doubt that the good sense of the

BLANDFORD HOUSE ABOUT DONE

(Copyright, 1!W1, by Press Publishing Co.)
IX3NDON, Nov. S.- (New Tork World C
blegram Special Telegram.) Blandford
Houm, the splendid town residence of ths
duks and duchess of Marlborough, is near
ing completion. Built with Vasderbllt
money In tha heart of fashionable London.
It swept away a chapel Interwoven with
tho traditions of more than 100 years to
occupy a site In Curzon street, Mayfalr,
which Is peculiarly commanding.
When tho duchess received the 11,000.000
presented her by her father, W. K. Vander
bllt. the dearest ambition of her heart, the
purchase of Marlborough house (then the
residence of the prince of Wales) for the
family which gave It Its name, she met
with a most unexpected rebuff. King Ed
ward, then -the prince, told her that Marl
borough house belonged not to him, but to
tho nation. Her endeavor to gain his con
sent to change the name of the royal resi
dence that her own town house might bear
the proud title, was equally unsuccessful.
The duke then decided that the new resi
dence should be known as Blandford House
(marquis of Blandford Is his second title),
and the search for a suitable site was
made. Curion chapel, the property of Earl
Howe, which was yearly leased for $2.6"0
by a clergyman and affected by a fashiona
ble congregation, occupied the position
above all others coveted by the duches3.
The purchase was made and the old chapel,
where many famous weddings occurred and
fnany distinguished clergymen have
launched 'their thunders, which is endeared
to the readers of Thackeray's novels, was
pulled down to make way for Its palatial
successor.
There are In all fifty rooms. The duke's
reading and writing room, a large circular
mornlngTDom, and at the back the dining
room nnd servcry, with a series of elabo
rate elevators on the most Improved Amer
ican plan to convey dishes from the kitchen
below. Comprise the ground floor. Above
are a billiard room, bedrooms and two
drawing rooms, one at each end of the
house to have sun or shade. The nurseries,
bed and dressing rooms for the marquis
of Blandford and his little brother are on
the third floor. The large playrooms ad
join these suit).
The cost of the bare building was $1,600,
000. Mr. Vanderbllfs further gift to this
daughter of K0O.0O0 for the furniture hns
resulted in a seaich of all quarters of Eu
rope for famous antiquities and cosily
hangings.
The duke and duchess of Manchester have
been busily engaged on Kylemore castlo
arranging for a visit from the king's
brother, the duke of Connaught, who will
arrive there Monday. Tho young American
duchess has .considerable taste In house
decorating and has been spending money
lavishly In preparations for royalty.' A suit
of four rooms has been entirely refurnished
and redecorated for the duke of Connaught
himself, for whom several shooting parties
and motoring excursions have been ar
ranged. Ambassador Choate, who Is obliged to
give up Cirrzoo' houBe" ofl-ChaYttott Hrnise
Terrace because the Curxons are about to
return home from ' India, was tempted to
rent the duke of Richmond's maglnflcehf
mansion n Belgrave square, but has finally
settled tin the fine residence on White Hail
Gardens, formerly occupied by Gerald Bal
four, It Is next door to the home of United
States embassy secretary, Henry- White.
So much will have to be done In the way
of decorating and refurnishing that ths
Choates will not be established there before
Christmas.

le the newest coinage of .the boulevards to
describe the working girls of the Paris
ateliers, whether they hail from the fash
ionable modistes or some dark little shops
on tho Montemartre. The name has Its
peculiar fitness. It arises from the fact
that these deft little misses, when they
have finished their dejeuner a la fouchette
(the French substitute for lunch) of fried
potatoes and sausape toward noon, come
out exactly on the stroke of twelve "mldl"
to take a turn on the' boulevards and see
how the world's wagging before going

tends all the way down from Montemartre
to be In the wake of this cortege of "little
twelve o'clocks," as we would say In
English.
This Is the momonf for flirtations to be
gin, be renewed or broken off. It Is very
Interesting at noon to be in the wake of
this cortege of "little twelve o'clocks," as
wo would say In English. A song writer
has just been Inspired with the idea of
celebrating the charms of these sprightly
young girls In a "chanson" which he has
called "The March of the Midlnettes."
A Redfern girl named Sweet has dimmed
the glory won by Mile. Chemlnel, the little
milliner who won a fortnight ago the race
of the midlnettes to Nanterre. Mile. Chem
lnel bar been beaten by Mile. Sweet, but
not disgraced, being only a minute behind
the winner. It was such a plucky race
that Redfern gavt each girl 100 francs (120).

TURNER BACK FROM IOXD0N

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
WASHINGTON, Nov. 8.-(Special.)-For-mer
Senator Ocorge Turner of Washington,
who has Just returned from Europe, whers
he served on the Alaskan Boundary com
mission. Is spending a few days at the
rapltal before returning to his home on
the other side of the continent.
"The decision of the State department to
submit the question of the boundary line
I j a commission or board of arbitration,"
s-jld Mr. Turner, "caused a great deal of
adverse comment when It wss announced
last - winter. Some of the newspapers
seemed to think that the United States
might sacrtfico foit.s rights by asking for
a settlement of tho controversy without re
course to force. The outcome -Df the nego
tiations has demonstrated the wisdom of
the course adopted. I do not mean that
this country has gained any advantage In
a territorial way. We simply hold what
wa bought from Russia, and our title haa
been ratified after full, freo and friendly
discussion. But we have accomplished
mora than the settlement of this boundary
dispute. Wo have shown the world that
two great nations can settle a boundary
dispute by practically the same means
which two private Individuals would adopt
In reaching an agreement over a similar
difference. Hereafter it Is probable that
peaceful means will always be adopted In
settling disputes between the two great
English speaking nations of the earth.
Good Word for the Klufc.
"The English people were very cordial
and friendly," continued Mr. Turner, "and
I was particularly impressed with the at
titude of King Edward toward the Ameri
can people. I had the pleasure of meeting
him personally, and I found him to be a
broad gauge man of scholarly attainments,
with a deep seated knowledge of American
affairs, and a sincere desire to keep the
relations between his own country and
ours upon a most friendly basis. He took
great Interest in the deliberations of the
boundary commission, and I am satisfied
that he was delighted that a satisfactory
solution of the questions at Issue was
finally reached.
"London Is a great city," continued the
senator, "but the English people don't un
derstand anything about cigars. Those
sold In the English metropolis aro. usually
as dry as a bono and as flavorless as pine
shavii.gs. Tha English people seem to
think that cigars, like the port and sherry,
of which they are so fond, 'improve with
age. I really believe that if somo llrst
c'aes tobacconist who learned his business
in this country would" open a first-class
cigar shop In London would make a for
tune In a short tlmo. Americans would
soon find him out, and he might teach Lon
doners that a fresh cigar is Infinitely to be
preferred to ono which has been allowed, to
dry out for a year or more. By the way, an
enterprising Yankee has opened an Amer
ican quick lunch room In The Strand. He
bakes buckwheat rakes In I he front window
and serves them with genuine maple syrup.
His place Is crowded all the time and he is
frequently compelled to pull down his win
dow shades to keep the crowds from block
ing the sidewalks. It is a genuine. Amer
ican lunch room, Where pork and beans and
pie are-always to be found. Ire"fijja made a
great success, as scores of other Americans
haVe who are propagating American Ideas
In London, and there Is plenty of room for
more." .
Roosevelt a Friend of Good Ronds.
W. H. Moore, president of the National
Good Roads association, called on the
president on Thursday to solicit his aid In
bringing delegates from the principal coun
tries of the world to the annual convention
which Is to be held as auxiliary to the
World's fair In St. Louis next year, presi
dent Roosevelt was one of the speakers at
the last convention In April. Former Presi
dent Cleveland and General Miles also took
great Interest In the meeting. Mr. Moore
found that Mr. Roosevelt 'continues to re
gard the subject of god roads as one of
the foremost economic problems at present
before the American peopje. It Is believed
that he will make a forceful reference to
the subject In his message to congress, and
he will cetralnly use all his Influence to
bring about a better system of highways
throughout the country. ,

and who has reached the age of discretion.
o Cleaner Bleeping- Cars.
Ono of the most Important subjects dls
ci ssed by the American Public Wealth as
sociation at Its recent convention In this
city was the sanitation of sleeping tars
It Is quite rrobable thnt an echo of the
meeting will be heard In congress at this
session, for every member realises that
there should bo national legislation look
ing toward the better cleansing and disin
fecting of these vehicles. The courts have
held on several occasions that under the
Interstate commerce '.aw as It now stands
the commission which controls the traffic
on railroads has no Jurisdiction over the
rolling stock of the sleeping car companies.
By a liberal use of passes among members
who might be obstreperous the companies
have thus far been able to head off all
legislation Inimical to their interests, and
they have succeeded up to the present time
In killing off even- bill which was designed
to place them within tho Jurisdiction of
the Interstate commerce set. But the Pub
lic Health association has called forcible
attention to the danger which threatens
the patrons of these cars, and the result Is
likely to be that several bills will be offered
which will force the companies to adopt
methods of sanitation designed to reduce
the danger of contagion to the minimum.
Evry health officer who attended the
session of the association admitted that the
problem Is a most difficult one to solve,
but the consensus of opinion was that It Is
solvable, and that a little pressure from
congress is the best thing that could hap
pen. not only for the traveling public, but
for the companies as well. It Is likely,
however, that when congress once takes
op the subject of sleeping cars, It will not
stop until It has provided for a regulation
of charges for accommodations, just as It
has authorised the Interstate Commerce
commission to regulate freight and pas
senger charges. It is notorious that the
rates for sleeping car accommodations are
arbitrary in tha extreme. Interested per
sons have been busy for months in com
piling figures which show that there is
nothing like a uniform system of charges
in existence. These figures will be pre
sented to congress, and will form the
saals for a forceful argument In support
of tha proposition to extend federal con
trol to the sleeping car service of the
country.

They accept a scheme from some un

Italy, Russia, England or America, adding
a few touches and present it as their own,
privately dividing the royalties with the
unknown author.
"Nobody objects to a manager reaping
the advantage from the name of a
distinguished playwright. This practice Is
comparatively safe and necessary. The
drama Is at a low ebb because the domestic
subjects are stale and because following
the lead of Lavedon. Capos and Donna,
they substitute dialogue for action.
"But even their lighter plays show con

BERLIN, Nov. 8. Emperor William yes

The only Inconvenience suffered by his
majesty is that he has been enjoined not

caused much astonishment, even among
court officials, who had no suspicion that
his majesty was suffering from an affection
of the throat.
The following bulletin was Issued this

without Interruption. The appearance of
the small wound Is satisfactory and there
Is no pain or other discomfort In the thront.

containing very few cells, this sharply de

the result of former slight hemorrhages
The polypus contained a large number of

POPE HOLDS A RECEPTION
Twenty Thousand People Crowd the
Grent Conrt of Ban
Damns.
ROME, Nov. 8. Pope Pius this afternoon
held another, of the. receptions begun by
him this autumn, that the people of Rome
might , have bis blessing. At an early hour
the large court of San Damas was so full
that not another person could be squeesed
in. It is estimated that about 20,000 per
sons were in the court, and many were
turned away, while Raphael's loggia
around the court was full to overflowing.
The appearance of the pope was made
amid great pomp. Preceded by guards and
surrounded by the prelates of the court, he
took his position on the throne, under the
clock facing the entrance. As he came In
A tremor of emotion was perceptible In the
vast crowd. His holiness was visibly
touched and his eyes filled with tears.
After a brief silence there were loud cries
of "Long live Pius!" Then a chorus of
dear-voiced girls sang a hymn to the pope.
As soon as this hymn was finished, another
was begun by a chorus of. boy students.
Including pupils from the American col
lege, led by Vice Rector Murphy of New
Tork. ,
The pope spoke for fifteen minutes on
ths goepel of the day, and was clearly
heard by all. His concluding words were:
"Tltrles are evil, but the evil can, be cured
by prayer."
His holiness Imparted the apostolic bless
ing to the great gathering. Several per
sons ware then permitted to kiss his hand.
Including Booth Tarklngton. the novelist,
and Mrs. Tarklngton, and Mr. and Mrs.
Abel of . Baltimore.
RUSSIA MUST MAKE ANSWER
Report of Settlement Between Japan
and Government of Tsar Is
Prematnre.
YOKOHAMA, Nov. 8 It Is said In offi
cial circles at Toklo that the rumor that
negotiations between the Russian and Jap
anese governments had come to the verge
of a final settlement Is misleading, but that
the Toklo government la now awaiting
Russia's reply, which Is due at any mo
ment, but both will only advance the ques
tion of the far eastern difficulty to another
stage.
The reports of the resignation of Viceroy
Alexleff, his change of headquarters from
Port Arthur to Vladivostock and the dis
mantling of ths fort at Tongampho are all
believed to Indicate a temporary weakening
of the Russian war party, but those Inci
dents will delay a final settlement. The
new tonnage dues promulgated by Viceroy
Alexieff provide that non-Russians must
pay twelve times the dues charged to Rus
sian vessels.

Tribunal.
OTTAWA, Ont.. Nov. S. Hon. Clifford
Slfton, one of the Canadian representatives
on the Alaskan boundary tribunal, teturned
to Ottawa today. "The decision rendered
by the commission must be accepted as
final," he said. "No matter how Canadian
might feel r.'oout the Justice of the sward."
In his opinion It vas proven without do-rot
mat the Portland channel tf ts the toith
of lYarce, Wales, Kitklan and Kannaghau
nut Islands, thus entitling Canada to all
four, and that the boundary line should
cross the range of mountains nearest the
sea coast to the Lynn canal. It was his
Judgment that the t.cqulescence of Grent
Britain In acts of occupation by the t'nlted
Ptates made it difficult to expect a decision
favoraole to Canada.
In all, a, Canadian route from the Interior
to the roast, he believed, would be the
ultimate solution of the question.
