The leading commer cial men are now taking a more hop.ful view of the prospects for securing a siiaie of the trade of Manchuria ami It appears that the Japanese government Is willing to fulfill its promise of an opn door in that country at least It has shown a betitr disposition than the military authorities.

Emperor William, when he was certain of the day on which Mr. and Mrs. Longworth would arrive here, telegraphed to Princess Eltel Frederick asking If she could not come to Kiel at once so that Mrs. Longworth could be en tertained aboard the Hamburg, the emper or's improvised yacht. It Is the emperor's rule never to invite women on board his Teasels unless the empress or one ol the Imperial princesses are present. Empre.-s Auguste Victoria desires to remain near the crown princess and Princess Henry of Prusxla Is taking a holiday In Bavaria, and Princess F.itel Frederick, who is also a bride, had arranged to go on a cruise In the Hamburg with the Imperial party after the regatta, but upon receiving the emper or's telegram ahe came from Potsdsm Im mediately, arriving here Saturday with Prln-e Eltel. and Mr. and Mrs. Longworth were Invited to dine with the emperor to night.

After the dinner the emperor and Prince" Eltel, with their guests and the emperor's staff, went on the quarter deck of the Hamburg to witness the Illuminations. The club house, the hotel and other buildings were outlined In eleot.-le lights and the sixteen battleships, ten cruisers. twelve merchant ships and 100 yachts in the har bor were-strung with Incandescent globes, while many searchlights playing about made a gorgeous scene. Just above the room in the hotel occupied by Mr. and Mrs. Longworth were the stars and stripes In colored lights. A great assemblage from Kiel and neighboring towns crowded the water front to witness the ilium nation. Mr. and Mrs, Longworth were detain.! by Emperor William until after 11 o'clock. The illumination ended with every warship sending up blazing rockets. The large class yachts rsped again today.

PANAMA. June 24. The elections today were orderly with the exception of a few free fights, which were without serious results, until late this afternoon, when a clash took place between liberals and po licemen who were protecting ballot boxes at Santa Ana park. Nine policemen and Jose Antonio Pardes. a member of one of the beat famlllea in Panama, were badly wounded and one liberal was killed. Forty armed policemen restored order, but it Is believed serious fighting may take place tonight unleas marines are landed from the United States cruiser Marblehead. Governor Magoon and Captain Georje R. Shanton, chief of police, In the canal lone, were prominent at all places during the day and their presence undoubtedly pre- ! vented much trouble. ! No disturbance have been reported at other places In the republic. The constitutional party was victorious In Panama City and the provinces of Cocle, Veragua and Chlrlqul.

Froin a Staff Correspondent.) WASHINGTON, June 24. iSpecial.) Captain N. M. Brooks, superintendent of the foreign mails division of the Post office depnrtment, who, with Edward Rose water, editor of The Omaha Bee, was a delegate to the International Postal con gress which recently met In Rome, has returned to Washington and resumed his duties In the Postofflce department. Cap tain Brooks, who has filled the position of superintendent of malls for many yeara and who has been a delegate to every in ternational postal congress for th last fifteen years.' speaks In most enthusiastic term of the work accomplished by the Amerlcnl delegates, and particularly of the sdaptublllty and the efficiency of his col league, Mr. Rosewater,' In not only being able to speak the official language of the congress. Flench, but his broad and com prehensive knowledge of the postal service. Speaking of the work accomplished by the Americsn delegates, Captain Brooka said that the United States was accorded unani mously an additional vote by reason of the possession of the Philippines, .Hawaii and Porto Rico, which the European delegates regarded as colonies, but which the Amer ican delegates called possessions." This vote was accorded the I'nlted State by the First commission, so-called, and which would correspond to our committee of credentials. At the meeting o the com mission the application of other countries for additional votes by reason of their colonial possessions were refused, but later by a majority vote concessions were granted those countries having acquired additional colonies since the former meet ing of the congress in Berne. Naturally the Americans are elated because they were accorded a distinguished honor by unanimous vote. Weight of Foreign Letter. Through the Joint efforts of the American and British delegates, after October 1. 1907, when th new postal treaty made In Rome will go into effect, foreign letters at the International postal rate of S cents may weigh one ounce Instead of one-half ounce, as now. The congress, whlfth uses the metric system In the weighing of mall, voted to make the weight of a single letter twenty grams, which I about two-thirds of an ounce. But the American and British delegates insisted that, as their countries were wedded to avoirdupois weight and that in consequence every scale In every postofflce and every business house in the Vnlted States and Great Britain would have to be changed, which would. work a! great hardship, the congress adopted a resolution that In the countries named not having the metric system, letters car rying one mine' would ba edepted.vy" . The American and British delegates stood together .on the proposition to redisre the cost of postage on a single letter, hut as foreign countries run their postal sys tem on a money making proposition the reduction of postage was voted down on every occasion. Through the efforts of the two English speaking countries signatory to the treaty an Indemnity of M francs tW was adopted In case of registered articles lost in transit. Through the efforts of Mr. Rosewnter, who bore letters from a number of prom inent Catholics In this country, the Amer ican delegates were accorded a private audience with the pope on May 24. the Introduction being made by Father Meyer of the Society of Jesus. They were ac corded a receprlon In the working office of Plus X, where they held an Interesting conversation with the head of the Roman Catholic church, who spoke enthusiastlcallg of America and Its people. Captain Brooks, who is not a Catholic, j said he was greatly impressed with the I dignity and the character of his holiness, whom he regards aa a great and good man. Throughout the congress the American delegate were accorded every courtesy and in . the social function arranged by the dignitaries were received with dis tinguished honor. Presldeat's Traveling Expenses. Congress has -at laat taken a step which should have been taken a quarter of a century ago In the passage of a bill, with scarcely any opposition, appropriating fcS.OOO to pay the traveling expenses of the president. It has been the custom for year for the railway of the country to place at the disposal of th chief magis trate all the facilities in their possession. Ther Is not a manager of a "Jerkwater" railroad In the United State who would not Jump at the chancs to place his en tire roadbed and equipment at the disposal of ths president. Whenever the occupant of the Whit House ha announced a de sire to travel th finest private cars have been offered for his accommodation and In many Instances "pilot trains" have pre ceded the presidential party to aeoure the utmost safety. But year af- year the feeling tia been growing that the president should not b under obligations to the railroad or the owner of private car, and only recently Mr. Roosevelt announced that he would accept no more favors from transportation companies. When he take a trip by water h ha at hia disposal always a small naval vessel, gunboat or dispatch boat, but even on board a vessel flying the presidential flag hf pay his "mess bill" for the reason thst there Is no fund out of which hla table ran be supplied, whether on ea or ashore. The demand from th country at large for a chance to aee the Chief Magistrate In propria perona grows each year. It Is necessary for him to travel many thousands of miles to comply with this demand and he cannot travel alone. HI entourage con sist of anywhere from ten to thirty per son and the expense of transporting such a party would prove a serious tax upon the presidential Income in fact it would take at least half of his salary. When these fact wer Impressed upon the members of the house there waa a prompt effort made to Incorporate an Item In th sundry civil appropriation bill which authorised th use of SJS.00U to pay the president's traveling expenses. But it wss ruled out on a point of otder. Very promptly the committee on appropriations prrsented a separate hill, making an appropriation cf a like amount for this purpose, and oa Wednesday the hill waa passed after forty minute debate un der isptnlon of th rut.

YEAR'S LEGISLATIVE WORK Sesaion Jut Claiinc Eu Enacted Much Important Lerialation. MOST IMPORTANT Or ALL YET TO COME Rate and Pare Food Rill Certala to Become Usi Befor the F.nd of Session Rents Record of all Sessions for Talk. WASHINGTON. P. C June !4 -Important measure extending federal reg-ilstion and control have been enacted at the first session of the fifty-ninth congress, now .' -'My drawing to a close. The railroad .d the mest Inspection bills will soon t.. ..me laws and before adjournment of congress both house will have passed pure food bills, which, though dissimilar In terms, are both based on the aame prin ciple of federal control. It Is the present intention to try and adjust these differences before adjournment. There ha been no marked division on party lines In effecting the above results, th differences being only to ways and means rsther than as to po'lO'- Beside branching oft Into this new field of legislative endeavor the present session of congress has made Itself Important In other ways. It has added one and per haps two new states to the union, and by o doing has disposed of four terri tories. Great results to the people are expected from the removal of the tax on denatured alcohol and if predlctiona are fulfilled light power Is to be supplied by alcohol made from th cornfields of the country, from sugar beets and sugar cane, from fruits and other vegetation. By deft turn of legislative points of view th questions which have perplexed congress: for some time regarding the Panama canal have been settled. The pres ident may dig a lock canal aa fast a he pleases. A Joint resolution waa agreed to requiring canal supplies to be of American msnuf act ure. Congress ha not dealt with the foreign i situation to any extent. An act making I a much needed reorganization of the con- ! Hilar service was passed. Nothing was j done In the 8anto Domingo controversy ! and the legislation affecting our colonial possessions was meager and unimportant, although tariff revision for the Philippines received the attention and approval of the house, and an act waa passed revising the tariff collected ' by the Philippine govern ment. A coinsge act for the Islands also was passed. ATalnnrhe of Word. But congress tnlked about our own tsrlff law. It broke the record for words. Thou sands and hundred of thousands more than have been uttered at any other one atsslon of congress were compiled In the Congressional Record. Not nly on the floors of . the two houses bas the word record been heavy. But the publications resulting from committee investigation of subject are larger and more numerous than at any previous session. A large num ber of . bills were introduced In the two houses. The calendar record show . that the number has .reached nearly 30. BOO trior than wer. introduced during th en tire three sessions of the last congress. Before discussing the number of acta passed it is interesting to note that all the strenuous exertions of an appropria tions committee In the house with a new chairman Representative Tawney It has been Impossible to hold the appropriations down to much less than S9.0no.000, although "economy" waa the watchword from the start. One of the Important feature of the ses sion ha been the careful scrutiny with which the demands of the different gov ernment departments have been received by the house appropriations committee. The hearings accorded to government of ficials asking for money to run their de partments and bureaus have been more ex haustive than ever before. The result has been the enactment of restraining legisla tion on nearly every appropriation bill which It is Intended will have a beneficial effect hereafter. trlken at Deflclencies. First in this class is undoubtedly that requiring the heads of all department to apportion the appropriations they receive into equal parts to avoid deficiencies. Thta is to be done under penalty. The only ex cuse will be some unforseen emergency, and unless this can be shown th head of a de partment asking for a deficiency appropria tion bill shall be summarily removed and lay himself liable In the future to fine and even Imprisonment. Another requirement makes It necessary for each department to submit all of It estimates for appropriations In the book of I estimates sent to congress at the beginning 1 of each session. Still another matter of economy Is the taking away from the government clerk the right to aecure a transfer to another department at a higher salary until he has served three year In the position he wishes to abandon. The prompt turning into the treasury of all moneys collected by heads of departments as government reve- j nue 1 another safeguard against extrsva- gance. It ws found that during the past yer one department had collected revenue to the amount of S730.0O0 and disbursed it without authority of lawi A strict accounting is hereafter to be re ceived from all I'nlted States court clerks. A revelation that one such clerk had re ceived emoluments amounting to S336 In one day brought about thla provision. Although there has been an effort to pre vent the enlargement of what Is known aa j the "permanent annual appropriations," this chsreter of expense has Increased dur 5 lng the session to the extent of nearly to. : fflo.ono. making a total permanent annual i appropriation of more than S140.000.ono. Measures were Introduced on which action will be pressed at the next session to repeal a portion of the permanent annual appro priations of the government. Labor Bill Eaaeted. Organised labor ha succeeded in Its re- ; quests on the present session of congreaa to I th extent of securing the enactment of 1 what is known as the "Employers Liability Bill." This enactment will make It possl I ble for an employe to secure damages for j his Injury, notwithstanding hla own negli gence. Another demand, which will doubtless be come a law before the end of th session, Is that limiting the hours of continuous service of railway tralnment to sixteen consecutive, hour' work to be followed by ten hour' ret. The much agitated eight hour day bill received a favorable vou rom the labor committee of the house, but too late to secure action at the hand of congress. The anti-Injunction bill wa postponed in committee until t next ses sion of congress. Enthusiasts for the "greatest navy" re gsrded the legislation of the session as inimical to the proper growth of that arm j,Cntlnicd oa Sooad Pag-) NEBRASKA WEATHER FORECAST Temperature at Omaha Yeaterdnyt llonr !. . . ft . .

At an early hour this morning a duly executed bond in the sum of S2S.O00 for the release of Mrs. Emma Kaufmann was flled with Sheriff Phillips. The delay In executing and completing the bond nss not due to the lark of signer, for offers to go upon the bond were plentiful, but was due solely to the red tspe necessary in executing an instrument of so important a character. The bond was completed shortly before midnight and Judge Jones of the stste cir cuit court, after carefully examining the instrument and pronouncing It a most ex cellent bond, attached his signature and thus approved it In accordance with tele graphic Instructions from the stste supreme court. Clerk of the Court Ketley then was roused and after filing .he "bond nd making It a part of the court records, a copy wa turned over to Sheriff Phillips. The bond Is signed by twenty-nln of th most prominent, and suhstsntlal cltixens of Sioux Falls. Msny others offered to sign it and several times the number who at tached their signatures could have been se cured had It . been necessary. This sub stantial testimony of the confidence of the men with whom he has sssoclated for manv years waa especially pleasing to Mr. Kauf mann. The hour was so 1st when a copy of the bond wss filed with Sheriff Phillips that any intention there might have been of removing Mr. Kaufmann home last night was abandoned. It has been cloudy and raining throughout today and It was deemed unwise to remove Mrs. Kaufmann from the county Jail, where she has been since last Wednesday noon. I.at this after noon it was officially stated at the Jail thnt she doubtless would be removed to her home Monday. Mr. Kaufmann and Charles, th son of the couple, yet are keeping Mr. Kaufmann company at the jail, both being with her constantly. During the past few days Mrs. Kaufmann was greatly annoyed by the ravings of an Insane .woman, who occupied an adjoining room.
