Panama Tolls Question.

Washington, March 31. The supporters of the Presidential attitude on the Simms Bill, predict the favorable majority exceeding 80. Senator Lewis, continuing the debate asserted that at the first moment the United States moved into Mexico with the object of reasserting the Monroe doctrine against foreign nations there, Japan would seize the Philippines and then capture Hawaii. Where would the United States then stand ? If embroiled over Mexico Russia could .seize Alaska ia view ol her Japanese alliance. South Americans were also unfriendly to the .United States and perhaps would seize the opportunity to lend aid to Mexico. \
