INTER-OCEANIC CANAL.
Why Senator Burnside WOnld Sit Down
on DeLesSeps.
National Associated Press TO the Star.

National Associated Press 10 the Star.
New York, July 7.-Senator Burnside
to-day defends his resolution respecting the
lsthmus Canal, on the ground that the
whole North American continent
below the Canada border will eventually
be under the control Of the United States,
and that the movement to establish this
highway with European capital must be re-
garded as, in certain sense, an intrusion
upon American territory.
The Senator says: | am by no means
certain, however, that the canal will be
opened Assuredly there is no imperative
necessity for one at this time. We shall
soon have two additional lines of railroad
across the continent, making three in all,
and the facilities for transportation between
the Atlantic and Pacific will be ample.
Capt. Eads' project for a railway, which
could be built with American capital, as
commercial enterprise, should be carefully
considered. The possibility of such plan
succeeding is an additional reason why We
should discourage the French canal scheme
in its incipiency.
There are so many reasons why we
should not allow foreigners to construct
canal that it is hardly necessary to specify
them. 1t is enough to say that it would be
highly detrimental to our interests rs
nation for canal under foreign contract
to be opened across the Isthmus, and that
we will not permit such an undertaking to
be carried ont.

National Associated Press to the Star
New YORK, July IA reporter said to
Lieutenant Governor Dorsheimer last eve
ming: as it probable that the East will
be permitted to name the Democratic can
didate next year in the National Conven-
tion?'
Dorsheimer-"That depends entirely on
the West. If the West could come into
the convention united on one man that
would settle it, The East hes succeeded
because of a division in the ranks in the
West. 1t is no better now. Hendricks, in
Indiana, is strong and growing stronger.
Davis and Thurman have their friends, and
if Ewing carries Ohio he becomes partici-
pant at once. A new name is finding some
favor. too. Judge Stephen ]. Field, of
the United States Court, in California,
is being talked of considerably. In view of
the rivalries further East it occurs to some
that it might be good idea to take can
didate from California. But the man
whose name comes instinctively to the
mind of every one as filling absolutely the
Presidential requirements is that of Bay
ard, of Delaware"
Reporter-"In view of the conflicting re-
ports of Mr.. Tlden's health, what is the
fact. Is he physically sound or weaker?"
Dorsheimer-"Well, haven't seen much
of Mr.. Ti!den of late, as lie has been in New
York and in Albany but whatever the
fact may be it is certain he has never yet
failed to respond to any and all demands
made upon him."
Reporter-"That's hardly an answer"
Dorsheimer-"Ah, yes, it is reply at
all events"

The Coliseum Walk.

At the close of the Coliseum walking
match at half past O'Clock last night the
score stood; Grim, 43S miles, Layton, 433;
Welch, 4O1; Ham, 35S, which, according to
the terms announced by Manager Webb,
would give Grim the medal and $500, Lay
ton 5000, and Welch 800, but with the ex-
ception of the medal, which was in the
hands of an outside party, who gave it to
Grim no one connected with the show,
walkers, musicians, scorers, &C., got any
thing but wind, Mr.. Webb failing to put in
an appearance. Mr.. Howard, one of his
employees, received note from him about
10 p. M, which read as follows:
Mr.. HowARD-Dear Sir: Tell the parties
concerned in the walk as soon as the score
is found perfect by the gentlemen from the
papers will fix everything all right.
J. Ii. WEBB.
The score sheet presented very unsatis-
factory appearance, the number of laps
scored for a mile varying from IS to 20.
This is attributed to the carelessness of the
score-keepers, and a close examination
shows that Layton is really entitled to the
first prize.
Webb's friends claim that he has other
important engagements ahead and will do
the square thing. His appearance is apx-
iously awaited by the walkists, and up to
this time nothing of his whereabouts is
known
