WIL3ON AGREES
10 AMENDMENT
0F TOLLS BILL
WASHINGTON, June 6—With a
knowledge that the tolls repeal bill
can not be passed through the Senate
without a strong American declaru
tion, the President and his advisers
this afternoon agreed to a compro
mise. :
This compromise reads:
“That the passage of this act shall
not be construed or held as a waiver
or relinquishment of any right the
United States may have under the
the treaty with Great Britain, ratified
November 18, 1901, or otherwise to
exempt the vessels of the United
States or its citizens from the pay
ment of tolls for passage through sail
canal, or as in any way waiving, im
pairing or uffe(-tixhg any right of the
United States under said treaty, or
otherwise, with respect to the sover
eignty over or the ownership, contro!
and management of said canal and (he
regulation of the conditions or charges
of traftic through the same.”
This agreement was reached after
several conferences between Senator
Simmons, representing the Presideat,
and Senator Norris, who represented
those who would not stand for the
President's attitude that the law of
1912 was in violation of the Hay-
Pauncefote treaty.

New York courts have decreed that
Mrs, Mary Dalton Sanchez is not and
never Lius been the wife of Angel, L.
Cuesta, millionaire cigar manufac
turer of .Atlanta, according to ad
vices received her: Saturday in ref
erance to litigation inaugurated by
the Cuesta family to hlock for all
time any efforts of the Sanc'ez wom
an to claim ei’her the naine or the
estate of the manufacturer.
The decision was hinded down on
May 22 in the United States District
Court of New York by Judge Hough.
Saturday a permagent injunction
was served restraining Mrs. Sanchez
from claiming to be Cuesta’'s wife or
to have been married to him.
. Goes Back to 1830. :
According to the Cuestas, the man
ufacturer's only knowledge of the
Sanchez woman was when she was a
geérvant in the boarding house of Mrs,
Amita Vallez, in New York. Cuesta,
then a cigarmaker, was stopping
there. This was in 1880-1881. Since
then Mrs. Valdez has moved to Ha
vana, but in a deposition presented
to Judge Hough declared that there
had never been any intimacy be
tween Mrs. Sanchez and Cuesta in
her house, nor had Mrs. Sanchezi—
then known as Mary Dalton—ever
claimed that Cuesta was the father
of her children. ;
Married Here in 1888.
The New York litigation was begun
by Angel L. and Merrie L. Cuesta on
information and belief that the San
chez woman pretends and claims sHe
is Cuesta's wife. Cuesta declares he
was married in Atlanta November 21,
1888, and has three children, Angel,
Jr.,, Karl B. and Carlotta H. Cuesta.
He asserts he was never married to
the Sanchez woman, but has reason
tc beliéve that after his death she
will ¢laim that he is the father of her
children. Tre manufacturer set out
in his bill that he owns real estate in
Géorgia and” Florida valued at $200;-
600,
Cueata is generally reputed to be
worta nearly $2.000,000.
