WILMINGTON, N. O WEDHESDAT MOMTlke, MAT 13. THE HITCH IN THE CANAL NEGOTIATIONS. LUMBER HEItVS. TDE RAILROADS. VETERANS REUNION AT NEW ORLEANSIA. Case on Trial in the U. S. Court at Macon, Oa., to Enjoin - the Defendants If Colombia Costiaaes to Defer Actios the State Depirtmeat Will Reofpea Nero tlatloas for Mcsrsrja Rente. b Telegraph to the Hormng star. Washhigton, May 12. Dr. Thoa. Hemn, Colombian .'charge d'affaires, said to-day that he had not been ad Tiied by his government that Presi dent Marroquin had resigned, as re ported in dispatches from Panama. If It shall appear shortly that the Colom bian government is unwilling to eon animate the treaty, or is disposed to defer final action beyond the "reason able time" mentioned in the Bpooner act, the State Department will at once endeavor to re-open negotiations with Nicaragua and Oocta Rica with a view to securing control of the alternate route for a canal through those coun tries. In fact Secretary Hay has al ready within the week talked with Senor Oorea, the Nlcaraguan minister, and Senor Cairo, the minister from Costa Rica. It is said by parties to the negotiations that if they are resumed it will be' upon the distinct un derstanding that the United States government definitely abandons the Panama route. So much ill feel ing was excited in Nicaragua and Oosta Rica by the dropping of the Nicaragua route after the protocols had been drawn looking to its acquisition, that the resident ministers of tne two coun tries here are very loth to take up the abject again without an express agree ment that they are not to be used to club the Colombian government into terms. The officials here, however, feel very confident that it will not be necessary to resort again to the Nlca raguan route for they believe the pres ent difficulties in the Panama negotia tions are solely attributable to efforts on the part of Colombians to Induce the Panama Canal Company to divide with them some part of the $40,000,000 to be received by the company from the United States.

TRADE WITH CUBA. A Oeaeral Deaial last There Was Aay Coffibiaatloa la Vitiation of Law. The Heads Will Probably Last for Three or Ponr Dsys. sy Telegraph to tne norninn star. MAOOK,GA,,May 13. The case of the Georgia Saw Mill Association vs. The Southeastern Traffic Association, the Southern, the Central of Georgia, the Seaboard Air Line, the Atlantic Coast Line, the Georgia, Western and At lantic, Atlanta and West Point, Georgia Southern and Florida, and Macon and Birmingham railroads, to enjoin the defendants from advanc ing the rate on yellow pine lumber two cents per hundred pounds, was called in the United States Court to day. The defendant companies filed a demurrer to the complaint, setting up that there was not that diversity of citizenship necessary to give a Federal court jurisdiction; that there was no charge of a violation of the Interstate commerce act, or of the Sherman anti trust law; that there was no equity in the bill of complaint, and each com plainant had a remedy at law; that the court could not establish rates which railroads should charge: that to decide that present rates should not be in creased. Is practically to establish by the court's decision, the present rates as a maximum rate which railroads may charge. Judge Speer asked counsel for de fendants if they desired to have the question of jurisdiction determined first Counsel for defendants elected to have the cause of complaint and questions involved in the demurrer tried together. Counsel for defendant companies and for the Southeastern Traffic Asso ciation then set up a general denial that there was any combination in violation of law to advance rates, or that the Southeastern Traffic Associa tion was an organization or combina tion acting contrary to law, or ille gally establishing and maintaining freight rates. The attorneys for complainants pre sented affidavits from different saw mill men, in which it was alleged that freight rates on Georgia yellow pine lumber from the mills to points be yond the Ohio river, were on an aver age in excess of the value of the lum ber at the nulls. A general denial was made that the Georgia Saw Mill Association was a combination to control the price of lumber, it being contended by counsel for complainants that while price lists were issued to all members of the as sociation, such prices were not obliga tory and .only to keep members gen erally Informed as to the condition of tne lumber market. The hearing of the case will proba bly last for three or four days.

Freljhl Rates Lower oa Goods from Europe This from United States. Br Telegrapn to the Koroma- Btax. Washington, May 12. The Depart ment of State has just received from the United States legation at Havana a report which points out the trade op portunities in the Cuban market in manufactured cotton. The report says Cuba has no advantage in its close proximity to the manufacturing cen ters of the Southern States, as the freight is lower on goods exported from Europe than those exported from either New York, Mobile or New Or leans. As a rule deliveries can be made quicker from the United Statea than from Europe, but during the past year it has been almost impossible to get goods with any promptness from the United States and this has caused a loss to our trade. Rassiau Issue Official Notice That Whole eonatry Is Opea to Foretf s Travel. By Cable to the Morning- star. Pkkut, May 12. The Russian charge d'affaires, M. Plancon, has given reassurances regarding Man churia. He has issued an official no tice that all Manchuria is open to for eign travel and adds that passports are no longer necessary. There were 500 Bussian soldiers at New Chwang, who were removed about the date fixed for the evacua- j tion, and the aame number returned to New Chwang. It appears that the Bussian force which returned to the Liao forts merely used the forts as temporary resting places, while jour neying southward to their station on the peninsula.

PORTUGUESE IMMIGRANTS ay Telegraph to the Mornina star. Charlotte, N. C, May 12. A special to the Observer from Newborn, N. C, says: The revenue cutter Boutwell, Cap tain 8eplam, arrived here to-day at 1 o'clock with the 891 Immigrants taken from the wrecked barquentine, Vera Cruz IIL Upon arrival of the cutter at the wharf she was boarded and quarantined by Assistant Surgeon Primrose, of the quarantined station of the port of Newborn. His report was that the Immigrants were in good con dition considering the hardships they have experienced and that examina tion showed that 90 per cent, of them had had smallpox. The manifest of the wrecked barquentine showed that 290 were signed for, but when they were taken from the wreck S93 were found, but one died after reach ing shore, thus leaving 101 more than the manifest called for. Captain J. M. Fernandez was in charge of the Vera Cruz and the papers received at the custom house here shows that he left Brava, Cape Verde, April 1st. It is reported that he has left for parts unknown, but thin Is not con firmed. The immigrants are in charge of the officers of the Boutwell and are being cared for at the government yards, where they will remain until the immigrant inspector arrives. The story they tell is quite pathetic. At the time they left Brava they were allowed one biscuit with a little brown sugar sprinkled on It a day,- and when their water got low they were made to put one bucket of fresh to two buckets of sea-water for drinking purposes. Thou sands of people flocked down to the yard to see the strangers and in the afternoon they were moved to sell some of the souvenirs that they brought over with them. THE MOBILE & OHIO STRIKE Speeches of Welcome Admiral BIckford . of the British Pacific Squadron: Con . veyed the Good Wishes of King - Edward A Colored Escort . sy Telegraph to the Morning star.' San Francisco. May 13. Heartier greeting was never given a President of the UnitedStates than that offered to-day by the city of San Francisco to Theodore Roosevelt. Through ml'es and miles of densely packed, cheering, patriotically enthused humanity the nation's chief passed, bowing his ac knowledgements, evidently wearied by maintaining an erect position in his carriage, but buoyed up by the im press! vene&a of the demonstration. It was a magnificent ovation. When the. Presidential train, drawn by a handsomely decorated locomo tive arrived, the President was wel comed by Mayor Schmitz and M. H. De Young, president of the citizens' reception committee. ' Mr. Roosevelt expressed his thanks to each In a few words and-was then introduced to Admiral Bickford, -of the British Pacific squadron, who con veyed the good wishes of King Edward and said that the arrival of the flag ship of the squadron to assist in the greeting was another instance of the' cardial relations existing between the two nations. President Roosevelt said be appreciated the evidence of friend ship and begged that his good wishes be given to his majesty. Before entering his carriage Mr. Roosevelt stepped up to the locomotive and warmly shook hands with Engi neer McGrail and Fireman Bverily, who had piloted him safely from the south. x In the parade the line was headed by a troop of colored cavalry, this be ing the first Instance in the West where negro' soldiers have held .the position of honor in a public proces sion. Following the President came United States troops from the local posts, sailors and marines from war ships in the harbor and at Mare Island, regiments of the State militia and a number of semimilitary organizations. A notable feature waa the fancy marching of the Cleveland Grays, who came from Ohio to participate in the California greeting. - After reviewing the parade the Pre sident was escorted to the Y. Mi O. A. building, where a throng had assem bled to participate in the burning of mortgages and notes representing the total indebtedness of $115,380 upon the property. The President, by request, touched a lighted match to the docu ments, and as the flames licked up the papers he joined with the assemblage in singing, ."Praise God from Whom All Blessings Flow." The President made a brief address. The President was banqueted to night at the Palace Hotel by the citi zens' committee. President Roosevelt in his speech at the banquet to-night said : "We have attained our present po sition of leadership in the Interna tional business world, in a tariff policy which I . think our people as a whole have acquiesced as essentially wise alike from the standpoint of the manufacturer, -the merchant, the farmer and the wage work er. Doubtless, as our needs shift, it will be necessary to re apply in its detail this system so alto meet these shifting needs, but it would certainly seem from the standpoint of our busi ness interests, most unwise to abandon the general policy of the system under which our success has been so signal. In financial matters we are to be con gratulated upon having definitely de termined that our currency system should rest upon a gold basis; for to follow any other course would have meant disaster so wide spread that it would be difficult to over-estimate it. There Is however, unquestionable need of en acting further financial legialation, so as to provide for greater elasticity in our currency system. So, in my judgment, the Congress that is to as semble next Fall, should take up and dispose of the pressing questions rela ting to banking currency." fell The the Held Bis InitiarSessioa of Police Court Yesterday The Offenders.
