PARIS, Jan. 18.—Patriotic sentiment and warm sympathy with France were the keynotes of to-night's annual banquet 2nd meeting of the American Chamber of Commerce in Paris. Francis Kimbel, president of the chamber, emphasized the former in his opening speech, propos- | ing a toast to President Roosevelt and | President' Loubet and saying that all Americans abroad took pride in declaring, | after the ancient Romans, *'Civis Ameri- canus sum.” Alluding to the Franco-American com- mercial treaty President Kimbel ex- | pressed regret that its advantages were not yvet sufficiently understood in the United States, adding that he was con- vinced its needs would shortly-become imperatively felt. The year's report of the chamber testified to its flourishing condition. Its increased membership and work necessitated _extensive quarters, which, it is expected, will be further in- creased in the near future. Regret was expressed that the United States Con- gress had not established the metric sys- tem. The chamber is convinced that the adoption of this system will further de- velop foreign commerce with the United States. United States Consul General John K. Gowdy paid a tribute to the late Presi- dent McKinley, He pointed out that the confidence in “President Roosevelt s so great that the onward march of pros- perity has never slackened. “‘President Roosevelt's patriotism and stanch prin- ' declared Gowdy, 1 continue r us on the great wave of pros- perity.” —_— Sue Railroad for Thousands. | HOLLIDAYSBURG, Pa., Jan. 18, | Ephraim W.

The effect of these plans upon the steel industry has already beea felt in a renewal of activity in the mills, | Insuring a prosperous year alike for the manufacturers and the men. By far the largest sum will be spent by the Pennsylvania Rallroad Company, which has set aside $27,000,000 for equip- ment and physical improvements of- the system and initial work on the tunnel and terminal in this city. The New York Central plans call for an underground loop at the Grand Cen- tral station and changes in the construc- tion of the Park avenue tunnel at an es- timated cost of more than $40,000,000, This sum, it is expected, will be spent between. now and January 1, 1903, in addition to $5,000,000 for the betterment of the sys- tem between New York and Buffalo. Following the initiative of the Penn- sylvania, the Baltimore and Ohlo Ralil- road has added $20,00.000 to its capital for the purpose of reducing the grades of /its main line and equipping its branches in Ohio and West Virginla to handle heavy freight.

COLON, Jan. 18.—Advices received here to-day announce that the Government troops at Panama are ready to depart by steamers for the coast to attack the in- surgents. News was received at Panama | that insurgent forces had embarked on| their own vessels and that their destina- | tion was unknown. NEW YORK, Jan. 18.—Dr. Antonlo Jose Cavivid, private 'secretary of President Marroquin of Columbia, and General Manuel Maria Mallarino, ex-Minister of War, have arrived here from Panama. Thelr mission, it is said, Is to dispose of | the ‘Government emerald mines at Muza, a department of Boyaca. At present the Colomblan Government is said to recelve a monthly rental cf 336,000 for the use of the mines, but the financial stagnation of the country and | tke expense of maintaining a large army | make it necessary for them to sell some | of them outright. Regarding the insurrec- | tlon General Mallarino sald: *“The rebellion has narrowed down to| operations by a few scattered bands of guerrillas, gwho, I am sure, will soon be | suppressed.” @ i Ghio River railroads are below the stand-i ard of efficiency required to make them | profitable adjuncts of the parent system, | and it is not unlikely that bonds will be | issued to cover the cost of needed im- | provements. Altogether it is probable that the Baltimore and Ohio will expend | $25,000,000 this year in perfecting its ma- | chinery. The announcement is made that the TUnion Pacific and Southern Pacific com- panies, which are under joint ownership, plan improvements and extensions during the year to cost approximately $25,000,000. Many natural obstacles must be over- come before these properties are placed on the plane desired by their owners. The Atchison is in much the same po- sition, and not to be outdone by its nelgh- bors this company has outlined plans for extensions and betterments that will cost $25,000,000. From $15,000,000 to $20,000,000, it is said, will be expended by the Northern Pacific. The Burlington-Great Northern combinagion is perfecting the physical conditions of these systems. The Iilinols Central outlay will be $13,000,000. The Erfe and Lackawanna plan to put $5,000,- 000 and $2,000,000, respectively, into im- provements. The Pittsburg and Lake Erie promises to build a four-track line for sixty-nine miles at a cost of $5,000,000, and a dozen other important systems have plans on hand@ which will involve an out- lay of about $38,000,000. Rallroad men say that these vast im- provements reflect the prosperity of the country, The money spent for~improve- ments, they believe, is a godd investment, lines, notably the Pittsburg and Western, Cleveland, Lorain and Wheeling and the ' which will yield handsome returns in traffic. | Buckley, D.
