Wants Decision on Canal Soon as Possible. ‘Washington, Sept. 14.—Upon the occasion of the recent visit of the members of the board of consulting engineers of the isthmian canal at Oyster Bay the president addressed to them a few remarks which will be printed shortly and presented to the members. After bidding them wel- come he urged them to use all the speed they could safely make in com- ing to a conclusion as to the best plan for digging the canal so that he might have ample time for studying the re- port before sending it to congress. He did not express himself in favor of either a icci 1 or a sea level canal and iefrained from ¥ tech- nical observations, but urged the members to state their opinion with- slightest hesitation and to send him reports, not as he should like to get them but as he ought to get them. The members of the board have nearly all returned to Washing- ton, but it has not yet been decided when the next meeting will be held. They will for some more days occupy themselves studying the various plans and data with which they have been provided. Plans as PREVENTS A LYNCHING.

When news of his coming was received a mob quick- ly formed and surrounded the jail. After arming his deputies and leaving them in charge of the prisoner, who was shrieking for mercy, Sheriff Mec- Cord walked alone and unarmed into the midst of the mob and told them plainly that his men were armed and | would shoot and that they should let the law take its course.

SAID TO BE A VERY: SICK MAN INTENDED DEPARTURE FOR HIS HOME IN JAPAN IS INDEFI- NITELY POSTPONED. New York, Sept. 14—Three physi- clans who are attending Baron K Ko- mura, the chief of the Japanese peace envoys, have decided that the baron has typhoid fever. His intended re- turn trip to Japan, via Seattle, has been postpoaed and nurses hastily summoned to his apartments in the ‘Waldorf-Astoria hotel. The baron’s temperature is 102 degrees and he is said to be very ill, though only in the first stages of the fever. The decision as to his illness was reached after a consultation of Doctors Delafield, Brewer and Pritchard. One of Baron Komura’s physicians, Dr. W. B. Pritchard, announced later that he disagreed with the diagnosis that the Japanese statesman is suffer- ing from typhoid fever. The typhoid diagnosis, he said, was made by Dr. ) Delafield, who was especially sum- moned here from Virginia to give an opinion on the case. Dr. Pritchard’s own diagnosis is as follows: “My original opinion was that the baron was suffering from an inflamed gall bladder and I still hold to that opinion. There is nothing serious in the baron’s condition now.” When Dr. Delafield was shown this statément he still held to the typhoid theory, but refused to discuss the case further. It has been decided that part of the Japanese mission will return imme- diately to Japan as originally planned, while Mr. Takahira will remain in this country with Baron Komura.

This is the China- man on whose land the war was fought for nearly eighteen months. Today the roads around here are filled with happy, smiling Chinese, men and ‘women, old and young, who, in carts loaded with their household goods, proceed in long lines back to their old homes. The Chinese greet the Russian sol- diers with the one word, “peace,” which isrepeated over and over again. Many of their homes have been devas- tated, but notwithstanding they ex- press their joy at getting back to the peaceful and industrious occupations. Furthermore, the game of neutrality to each side which the Chinese have been obliged to play for so many months has been a hard one and peace has brought relief from this strain. It is no exaggeration to say that the Chinese are now the happiest people in Manchuria. It is reported here that the Japa- nese have disbanded the Chinese ban- ; dit organizations which they operated during the war. ARRANGING AN ARMISTICE.
