WASHINGTON, Feb. 1.-The manner IN

THE NICARAGUAN TREATY.
The Messages of Pre- sfdent Zachary Taylor
Transmitting the Bulwer- Clayton
Treaty Made Public-Very
Apropos at This Time.

WAsHIEGToN, Feb. The messages OF
President zachary Taylor, transmitting to
the Senate the document composing the
has been said OF late, have been made pub
lie. They bear date of April. 1850. and give
much information that is of special
value at this time, during the dis
cussion of the Nicaragua treaty. The Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty is in many respects like
that with the State of Nicaragua. They both
originated from desire by American citi-
zens and the Government to construct or
control q canal route through Nicar-
aqua ana connecting the Atlantic and
Pacific Oceans As Nicaragua is a Central
American State and is directly connected
geogre phically with the United States, tue
subject is one of vast Importance 10 this
Government.
The Clay ton. Bulwer treaty merely guar
antees, between the English and American
Goverrm ments, protection by one to the other
of any interest the citizens of either shall
have in the Central American States, with
especia reference to the Nicarsguau Canal.
This protection is to private par
ties. The NicsIsguan treaty means
that the United States Government viii
construct or aid or encourage the construc-
ton Of the canal, to be controlled by people
or the Government of the United States.
Therefore, some of the Senators hold that it
Is in conflict with the Clayton -Bulwer
treaty. because the latter, in spirit, abro-
gated the rights OF the Government to aid in
the construction of the canal

THE LA PAUL CASE.

State Inspector F. A. Scott of st. Paul
was at Minnetonka yesterday closing his
work for the season. He has issued inSpec-
ton certificates to all steamers on the lake
with the exception of the Hebe. The lat
ter's boiler was condemned and new one
is being put in. Mr.. Scott rendered de-
cision in the case against Capt. George La
Paul, engineer of the Hebe, who was
charged with carelessness in leaving a fire
under the boiler when he was away from
the boat. After reviewing the evidence in
the case as presented to him last week the
inspector decided against the defendant and
refuses to grant him a license to act as en-
gineer on any boat during the present year.
He also fOrbids him applying for a license.
This result and decision was reached, !"
said Mr.. Scott to the GLOBE, lin view of
La PauPs carelessness and not because
lacked faith in him as an engineer He
passed a successful examination some time
ago as assistant engineer and might have
had a license as such if he had applied for
it. My decision will prevent his receiving
one this season, however, but it will not
prevent him from still acting as captain of
the boat if its owner desires to engage
him."
During the day Capt. La Paul was seen
and in the course Of brief conversation
with the GLOBE, he said: 81 don't see how
he could make such decision as this. The
preponderance of testimony at the trial was
in my favor, and he refused to hear either

P. Gellerup, who was for two years city
Inspector of sewers at Milwaukee, thinks
the contractor who recently told GLOBE
reporter of the wrongs inflicted on the pub
lie in the cement sewer pipes, knows less
than he fOndly imagines. MI. Gellerup
said yesterday:
Il read very carefully the article in the
GLOBE headed Gigantic fraud, " in which
was given to the public the contents of an
interview with, what he terms, an exper-
fenced public contractor. In speaking
about the enormous wrong which is perpe-
trated on the tax payers of the city of Min
neapo1is in using the cement sewer pipe,
this experienced (?) public contractor says:
In two or three years all the pipe now be-
ing laid will then be as rotten and poor as
the trunk of an old tree which has been
eaten into sieve by millions of industrious
ants Now right here, this man of expert
ence (?) is entirely wrong and doing great
injustice to the cement sewer pipes. was
