The President made the Panama tolls a special business to-day, talk- ing the matter over with Lalf a dozen Congressional callers. Senator Jones returned to the Capi- tol and gave the Senate the Presi- dent's unqualified denial. “The President assures me," sald Mr. Jones, “that there was no basis of fact in the articles I referred to to warrant the conclusions with regard to this Government and its relations with Great Britain in the matter. I think I was misunderstood in thet I did not draw the conclusions myself, but took them from newspaper re- ports. I think it only just to the Pres- ident that I make this statement be- cause I do not want to misrepresent anybody.” Senator Jones declared the incident werved to illustrate the necessity for more information on the toll exemp- tion, and again urged his resolution calling upon the President for in- formation as to what governments had protested against cxemptions for American ships. Action was again deferred when Senator Bristow requested that it go over until he could confer with mem- bers of the Canals Committee. The President told callers after- ward that he could not get a sugges- tlon on the Mexican question out of Sir Lionel “with a corkscrew" and that the conference was purely for information on the general situation in Mexico, ae JUAREZ ENTRIES.

Muller, mill- fonaire real estate man, declares he is going to do everything he can to make young Huber’s “punishment ft the crime.” Huber’s conviction might mean ten years in prison and a fine of $1,000, The scene of the pursuit shifts to Boston because of informa- tion supposed to have come from Hu- ber’s mother, The clue coming from euch ag un- expected source drove from the minds of the girl's father and ber aunt, Mise Mary Manuel, of No. 354 West End avenue, the belief that the much-eloped couple had gone to Chicago or San Francisco. They are determined to prosecute the young man for “abducting” the girl whom he married secretly in Elkton, Md., in January.
