In Twenty Yri,
WASl UNGTON, Nov. 13.-Presldcnt
Taft tonight Issued a proclamation fixing
the rates that foreign ships shall pay
for passage through tho Panama canal.
The 'proclamation, made under authority
of the canal bill passed by congress In
August, establishes a merchant vessel
rate of $1.20 per net ton In actual carrying
capacity, with a reduction of 40 per cent
for ships In ba'last.
The provisions of tho proclamation are
as follows:
"On merchant vessels carrying passen
gers or cargo, $1.20 per- net vessel ton-
each 100 cublo feet of actual earning
capacity.
"On vessels in ballast without passen
gers or cargo, 40 per cent less than the
rate, of tolls for vessels with passengers
or cargo.
"Upon vessels other than transports,
colliers, hospital ships and supply ships,
j0 cents per displacement ton.
"Upon army and navy transports, col
liers, hospital ships and supply ships, J1.20
per net ton. tho vessels to be measured by
wthe sumo rules as aro employed In deter
mining the net tonnage of merchunt ves,
sels.
"Tho secretary of, war will prepare and
prescribe such rules for tho measurement
of vessels and such rcgulattlons as may
bo necessary and proper to carry this
proclamation Into full forco and effect."
American coatwlso shipping was ox-
impted from toll payment by congress.
It was on this provision of the act that
Great Britain protested, but no reference
to the 'protest was made In tho president's
oroclamation. American naval vessels ore
exempted without specific mention cither
In tho act of congress or tho proclama
tlon because tho .authorities believe -It
jnnocqspary to explain the usclessnesa of
- ' . ; ... HT...... 1 nnntr.n.t fr'nt
-.6 the one belotiglns" to tho Treasury de
partment. " itait Sninc n nt Sue.
Tllo "rates', named In tho proclamation
are practically tho same as those which
wlil be in force at the Suez canal next
year.
Tho 'president based his declaration of
rates upon the report and Investigation of
I'rof. -Emery R- Johnson of the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania, an expert desig
nated by executive order for the task.
Tho report has been awaited with in
terest by shipping Interests throughout
the world.
According to Prof. Johnson's report to
the president, also made public tonight,
tho Panama canal should be upon a self
mstalnlng basis In twenty years. It
rhould competo successfully with tho Suez
route for traffic of Europe with South
American west coast points and with
New Zealand, but cannot be expected to
compete successfully for Europe's trade
tj the far cast.
Taking the estimates of the canal com
m'stlon .for expenses of operation and
maintenance of tho canal and for the
Improvements held to bo necessary at the
' Tnd of a decade Prof. Johnson figures
that the rate pcr-.ton $an bo reduced at
the end of ten years to SI. Even with
thN rate.' Which ho says probably will
correspond clpscly with the rato that
may thcr) bo enforced through the Suez
canal, the United States will obtain
enough revenue from foreign vessels to
pay all fixed changer, provide a sinking

fruitless.
LONDON. Nov. 13. A much moro hope
ful feeling prevailed today In regard to
thb International sltuntlon created by tho
Balkan war. Tho situation Is stilt full
of difficulties, but tho attitude, of all of
tho powers In working for n peaceful set
tlement, will, It Is believed, result tn
avoiding an actual conflict.
Servia, however, has not yet replied to
the Austro-Hungarlan suggestion that a
Sorvlnn occupation of Albanian territory
or of a port on tho Adriatic sea will not
he tolerated. At (ho sumo tlmo a Servian
army continues Its march toward tllo
Adriatic coast, and In ono report from
llelgVudc Is snld actually to have reached
Durnzzo.
Thu Rusttnn government, acting In
direct disregard of public- feeling In Rus
sia, hun notified tha Hervlan minister
at St. Petersburg that Russia will not gr
to war over the question of an Ardlatt
port. Tho Russian forqign minister, Ser
gtus Satonnff, at tlin snmo time In
formed tho Servian mlnjster that Russia
.would glva friendly support to Hcrvlu In
Its negotiations with Austria-Hungary.
' I'rniMiMiil of Auatrln.
It Is understood that Count Von Berth
old, tho Aiistro-Hungnrlun foreign min
ister, hns proposed to give oxtciistvo
privileges to Servia In connection with
the projected Adriatic-Danube, railway,
..It ts said Dr. Daneff, Jrcsldcut .of tho
Bulgurlun Chamber of Doputlcs, proposed
that Austria should ullow Servia to go
to soma Mrt oil tho Adriatic, without ob
taining tho territory at tho back of It
or tho right to fortify tho port, which
would bo connected with Servlun terri
tory by a railway. '
Hervla has yet to bo heard from In re
gard to these proposals. It believes that
Austria alum at Its political and oconomlc
subjection, which wrould break up tho al
ltanco of tho Balkan nations. With an
Independent Servia, Austria fears that Its
Sorvlnn subjects will want to Join their1
co-nutlonallHts.
In the meantime tho Albanian chiefs at
a meeting at ,tho seuport of Avion, hava
proclaimed tho autonomy of their coun
try. Turkey Is once more reported to
havo mado 11 direct appeal to tho Balkan
allies for medlatlo'n, and Constantinople
also hears that tho European powers
havo submitted to tllo Balkan nations
Turkey's request for an armistice pending
negotiations for peace.
Turkey Wnnta Armistice.
Turkey ts now In better position to ask
for an armistice, as it is understood
strong reinforcements of fresh Turkish
troops liavo reached Tchatalja and might
hold out thero for days If not weeks.
Tho abscuco of nows from that quarter
suggests that tho Bulgarian army Is not
walking over Turkish fortifications, as It
waa expected to do. The duel between tho
Turkish warships and tho Bulgarian ar
tillery appears still to bo In progress at
Rodosto, on the sea, of Marmora,
Tho garrison of Adrlanople has mado
another desperate sortie, and according
to Bulgarian accounts has been driven
buck Into the fortifications.
