Panama Canal

INSULTING INSINUATIONS.

DENIAL BY THE PRESIDENT.

By Cable—Press Association—Copyright Washington, .March 30.

President Wilson denied making a deal with Mr. Tyrell, Sir Edward Grey's private secretary, regarding the Panama tolls and the Mexican question. The President declared that such a suggestion was the crowning insult 0 t a number of insults which had marked the Panama debate.

The President told callers to-day of two debaters in a country debating club. When one side was getting the worst of the argument, they induced their most muscular champion to call bis opponent a liar thus precipitating a pugilistic contest.

Asked, after this story, if he was going to fight, the President smiled and said he didn't need to.
