Aand have that shell painted any way he wished. At. thej same time I have had to speak with express emphasis to him on more than one occasion; and on one "occasion (that of Venezuela) have had to make a display of force and to convince him deflmtely that I would use the! force if i necessary. Mr- Bishop declares that. In spite of the Venezuela "incident of December, 1902; which must have been "a humiliating check, the former emperor cherished no resentment, and subsequently wrote Roosevelt the most friendly letters.

He also sent the colonel a number of photographs showing himself and Roosevelt astride magnificent horses at a maneuver of the Ger- army. On the autographed pic- tures he had written: "The colonel of thel rough ciders lecturing the chief of the German "Total agreement about the general maxima of life and policy between America and Germany." "On the Muhlenberg; a grave discussion; look out:" and "The chief of the German army thanking the colonel of the rough riders for the honor of Inspecting his troops." Mr. Carnegie, by. the way. onee had 1 credited a rumor that Germany was build ing a strong fleet to attack th United.

States. Shrewd Diplomacy A letter the colonel wrote to Edward VII. of England on April 25, 1906, contains a reference to the Algeciras conference of that year, an international parley which at the time was said to have niverted a general European war. The biographer states that "the Secret history of this-. conference, which stands revealed in Ttoosevclt's corre spondence and which is far too long for publication in the magazine, shows conclusively that it rras arranged by Roosevelt at the insistent request of the kaiser; that Roosevelt drew up the terms of settlement which were adopt ed, and that he fairly compelled the kaiser to give his unwilling consent to them i Would Bite a King.

Roosevelt's impatience with the cer emonies and etiquet of courts found vigorous expression.

"PRICES NOT. TO SOAR." INDIANAPOLIS, April 19 Coal prices will not soar as, high as expected a few days ago, declared Ellis Searles. edi tor of tho United Mine Workers Journal, in a statement issued from the international headquarters of the miners organization here Re ports and newspaper comment from all: i country, ne saici, justtnetl nis statement. Mn Searles statement fol lows: "It was that a season of profiteering in coal prices was contemplated and that th profiteers pufposed to tell tho public that' the abnormal prices were due to the wasfe increase I granted to the bituminous miners. The! miners, however, made.it clear to the I public that the wage increase would nt justify the proposed boost in prices.

Then Attorney General Palmer eorroi oorated the miners in a published in terview in which he said that even if the entire amount of the wage Increase was passed on to the public it could not amount to more than AO cents a ton increase in the price of coal. He warned operators-and dealers against attempts at profiteering and instriicl-ed United States district attorneys to look out for such cases. i This has cleared the miners of the charge tht they were responsible for- the price boost and has had a-tendency to put stop to any, reckless profiteering."

Opening up the St. Lawrence river to connect our inland ports and the Atlantic seaboard, with the 'great lakes accessible to ocean-golfig steamers, Is a project now being considered by the governments of the United States and Canada.

The venture ha aroused national comment. Western states favor If. but there are those In Kw York hq lnsUt that the project Is an effort on the part of Canada to divert the (rain cargoes now shipped toj American fettles via the New York State barge canal to Canadian lake and sea jorti. The supporters of. the plan contend that the opening up of the northern waters will redound to the interest of both t- "A Second Mediterranean.

According to! advocates "of the project, nature suggested a second Mediterranean In the laying out of irreat lakes. But it 'wis only a rough sketch, with a chain of 'barrier between this great body of inland water and the open sea that seemed to make the suggestion Ironic, Straight across the path of the proposed undertaking roars Niagara fall uttering a derisive nt-gatlve to the idlca of an ocean high-w; y. Other noteworthy barriers were 40 miles of rapids In the St. Lawrence, the shallows connecting I.ake Krie and Huron, the -fall in St. Mary', river, connecting I.ake Superior and I.ako Huron.

Lesser-Barrjers Conquered. Step by step, as the 1 middle wj-st filled up and the pressure of its pro. J-cU turned toward the lukea, the lenfter barriers have been coiii.uere the greatest one of all, Niagara itself, will soon be i. circumvented by. the genius of man.

All these have, in a sense, been piecemeal propositions. The great conception to make the ctUes of he lake seaportsto bring all that section adjacent to I the sea-coast was lacking in all, the) separate projects. But now plans, taking their Inspiration from all the iMisxibllities of this conception, are to force themselves on the attention of the country, especially on the east, backed by extensive organization and directed by a definite purpose. Its promoters call it the most engineering project before the world to-day. Thus far the cast has only heard a faint echo.

The International joint commission, autltorUrd by. ft he last congress "to investigate what further Improvement of th? St. Iwrence river between Montreal and Lake Ontario Is necessary to make the stream naviv gable for ocean-going vessels." held meetings in New York the other day without any ftttentum from the newspapers'; but from now on. the undertaking in its vast double cor nn eeean highway from the lakes to the we, the creation of 2.0'J.0ui,U0d horsepower in the I.awrence will inevitably be forced on the east as nn Istfue that can no longer be overlooked. Western States Enthusiastic In the west there is a big driving force behind the enterprise.

Before the war the! conception had taken strong hold of the business men in that section the war placed it In the background; now untiring energy converging from many sources, industry, commerce, agriculture, will push the undertaking forward. The aoopo of the backing embraces 14 stales. The member states of tht Great Lawrence i Tidewater association are: Illinois, Michigan. Iowa, Montana. Colorado.

COAL USERS ASK HELP. RICHMOND, Ind April 10, Following closely- on the action of Howard A. Dill, of the Richmond water works in forwarding evidences of alleged attempted profiteering to Evans Woollen, former state fuel administrator, business men of hte city today made an appeal direct to Attorney General A.aiitchellPaSner for relief. It is hoped to have an expression from Mri Palmer or the white house early next week. The appeal points out that the offers are evidence of a conspiracy in restraint of interstate commerce as all the offers were from companies outside Indiana.

.1 The movement was started when Mr. Dill and Johnston, both of whom are large users steam coal made public jpfticers made them for large quantities of steam coal increases of $1.40 to fl.55 per ton over the figures quoted prior to the time President -Wilson's coal commission granted the miners an increase of 27 cents in wages. It has been pointed out frequently that the price of coal should not rise more titan 50 cents a ton over the figure quoted prior to the Increase. In the event the attorney general and the president fail to act the business men here plan to carry the matter before congress. Warsaw Wants Building.
