President Taft, speaking to the Pennsylvania society of New York City, Saturday night, asked $12,000,000 tp fortify the Panama crnal. He made it plain the canal is a naval asset as well as a convenience of commerce. Explaining away all treaty difficulties he characterized as preposterous the theory that the United States had no right to protect Its own prop- erty. Concluding, he said he hoped to negotiate more effective peace treaties than the world has ever seen. In the senate the president says that the sentiment for fortification is almost two to one. The house seems pretty evenly divided, but not along partisan lines. Most of the members have an open mind apparently, and are willing to be convinced by the side that makes the better presentation of its case. The president said he yielded to no man in his love of peace, and hatred of war. He said he hoped to submit soon to the senate arbitration treaties of a broader nature than had ever come before that body, or any legislative body ot the .world. At the same time he cautioned his hearers that universal peace was still a long way off. Frightening Negroes From Homes. Hominy, Okla.
