Canada to Increase Head TaxMuch has been done in the past year

by Commissioner General Sargent ofthe iHualgratisn Bureau toward reach-Ing an agreement with the Canadian goerwaeHt by which It is believed Utetwo Countries will cventBaHv be underthe same system regarding the entranceof the Chinaman Already the Canadiangovernment is agitating the question ofraising the bead tax on the Chinesefrom 1 9 to 2W The Canadian gov-

ernment at resent has no exclusionact probably for the reason that Canadahas been getting the 100 and the UnitedStates baa been getting the Chinaman

A telegram from Commissioner Gener-al Sargent was received at the TreasuryDepartment this morning from Los An-

geles Ol where he had arrived enroute for Honolulu He bas probablyreached San Francisco by this time aitdT-

The eoartsMn interpreting the Chineseexclusion act have decided that the stat-us of is the same as that of herhusband A restaurant keeper is classi-fied as a laborer and therefore tlw actof a Chinese restaurant keeper in bring-ing a wife into the country has beenconstrued to mean the ira H rtatii u ofChinese labor Kbitru of course la barred under this act

Fears for New Monetaryof the Island

RECORD ADVANCE IN PRICE

Director of the Mint Keeps His EyesCentered on

Control

While Director of the Mint Robertsfwill make no more purchases of silverfor the Philippine coInage until Mondayhe Is watching with solicitude the London markets to determine If possiblethe reasons for the sensational advanceIn prices

It is believed now that if silver con-

tinues to go up at a rate which threat-ens to surpass the coinage value of thenew silver pieces the coins will not beput into circulation The gravest apprehension Is felt for the safety of the newmonetary system of the Island govern-ment

Money to Be Shipped FridayThe authorities at the San Francisco

mint are now busy superintending thepacking of 1 500000 POSeS which are tobe shipped to the islands on the trans-port Thomas sailing Friday The sys-

tem cannot be put into operation however until 3006049 pesos have been received at Manila and until then thereis no danger of the coins being hoardedas a silver bullion speculation

The anxiety of Government officialsis not decreased by a careful investigation of the situation at London whereare made the silver prices the worldThe silver industry has for a long timecomplained of the manipulation of theLondon clique v

Cornered by Four Brokers

There are four London brokers whodeal in silver bullion Virtually the entire amount of bar silver shipped toLondon is reshlpped largely through theEastern banka to Africa and Asia TheseEa t rn bank or their London officesact only as sgeatJi in buying and inorder to re ft of all Sfe

sponaibility insist upon making theirpurchases through one or the other ofthese brokers

The four brokers meet at oclockevery afternoon compare notes and makewhat is known as the official price Sincethe sellers of silver are oblig 5d to throwtheir daily product upon the Londonmarket these brokers have an absolutecontrol and have used it for a long timeeither speculatlvely or otherwise to thedetriment of producers of silver andit is said to the extreme detriment ofthe commerce of the world

Silver Always ScarceThe comparatively small amount of

silver which the Philippine governmenthas purchased together with a recentpurchase by the French government of150400 ounces for IndoChina whichwas its first purchase since the agita-tion last fall to place the currency ofthe Straits Settlement upon the goldbasis has doubtless made it harder forthe brokers to fill their short sales

A far greater effect on markethowever is the fact that India 1s be-

ginning to buy again to replete itstreasury which is being exhausted bythe presentation of geld received forlarge exports due to a good crop in India after two or three years famine

Where the Danger LiesAs told by The Times yesterday the

coinage value of silver in the new pesosfor the Philippines is 64 cents an ouncesid the price of silver 2s within aboutnine cents of that figure and still ad-

vancing Cnfroeied by this situation-it not encouraging for officials of theTreasury and War Departments to re-

call that when the Indian government-was obliged to buy three years ago itpurchased about 30000060 ounces forcoinage into rupees and the market ad

under this demand from about 52

to S5 cents New York This is 1 centhigher than is necessary to ruin thePhilippine monetary system

It is not believed however that suchextraordinary purchases will be necessary this year but it is said that if theentirely unnecessary depression in pricecan be overcome by introducing a newbuyer and to a certain extent competi-tion in buying the effect will be bene-ficial to the commerce of a large porsioiof the world governed by silver cur-rency and likewise stiffen the marketfor bullion

Depression in SilverIn connection with a serious depres-

sion brought about in the prico of silverIn the ten years the Gpvernmeuofficials e interested in noting that theamounts of the net imports of silvrinto India In the ton years since themints WOre closed to free coinage atBombay has exceeded by an average or30CC0000 ounces a year the amount of

lag the closing of the mintsWhen the fact 5s considered that the

price of silver was reduced more thanZO per cent In two weeks on account of

closing Qf the mints in India andpresumably because thereby the con-

sumption of silver would be decreased itwill b seen what an arbitrary and detrimental contror London had over a greatproduct of this country which hasbrought back to the United States from

30OCGQCO to 50000000 In gold yearly

Colombian Legation Hearsof Much Opposition

No Confirmation of Report That SpecialSession of Congress Will

Not Be Called

The Colombian legation has no infor-

mation which confirms the report thatPresident Marrequin of Colombia hasabandoned the idea of submitting thePanama Canal treaty to a special sessionof congress-

It is rumored that President Marroquin has decided since the announcemont of the results of the recent

that the canal treaty would farobetter ut the hands of the regular ses-sion of congress which will open inJuJr

Dispatches From Colon

Dispatches from Colon Colombia announce that the department assembly ofCartagena rejected by a vote of 9 to 8

a petition to have a memorial in opposition to the canal presented to

Full confidence in congress wasexpressed by the assembly

Papers and advices received at theColombian legation from other than

sources indicate that there isstill a great diversity of opinionamong Colombians concerning the ca-

nal The opposition to the treaty isnot confined to any one class of peo-

ple and there is no organized partywhich is fighting the ratification of themeasure

The anticanal sentiment extends toall parts of the republic It is strong-est in the remote sections of the coun-try where least Is known concerningthe canal

Commissioners on SecondThought Reverse Decision

PRESIDENT WORSHIPS THERE

First Ruling Conformed to Views Expressed in

Order to Pastors Plea

The District Commissioners havegranted permission for the laying of asidewalk the alley leading to theSunday school door of Grace Re-

formed Fifteenth Street neat0 Street northwest This is a briefbut not unexpected announcement andcloses a case that has caused much conjecture among those familiar with thefacts and no doubt tested the elasticity-of conscience of the Commissioners-

The story as printed in The Timesseveral days ago shows that the plansfor the new church edifice which nowadorns the corner of the alley and Fif-

teenth Street were drawn with the im-plied understanding that a sidewalkcould he laid up the alley to the doorof the Sunday school But when PastorSchick applied for such a permit theCommissioners withdrew behind thefortress of President Roosevelts firstmessage to Congress and were not dis-posed to consider the matter favorably

Presidents Public ViewsThe President placed himself on re

cord in that message as opposed to thegranting of permits for any construction

or improvement of alleys whichtend to encourage tlie use of

such for residence purposesThe Commissioners believed the laying-of a sidewalk contrary to theexpressed will of the Chief Executiveand their decision was accordingly de-ferred

But on second thought the Commis-sioners recalled the that Mr Hoccevolt was a member in good standing ofthe congregation of Grace Reformed j

Church and he might have occasion onsome pleasant Sunday morning In theluturj waad ntasiy leto this hUM

pretentious altey Tjpdfeiy a swtefor the use of the President seemed 1mpolitic Jto say the least But the Prsatdents message was expressly opposedte the sidewalk The honorable Com-

missioners were between the devil antithe deep sea j

Pastors Appeal j

this juncture In the proceedingsDr Schick pastor of the church calledupon the Commissioners and explainedbe simply had to have the sidewalkProtection was needed for the littleSunday school children as they wouldgo to and fro between Fifteenth Streetand the door of the old church whichIs now to be used as a Sunday school-room The copings of the new churahmust also be protected from the wagonwheels as reckless jehus drove theirvehicles in and out the alley entranceThese ware the arguments the pesterused but not was thethe President mentioned j

The Commissioners considered andafter weighing the matter

found a way the sidewalk willbe constructed forthwith
