THE MONROE DOCTRINE ReAsseRTED
Edmunds' Resolution Regarding the Pan
anna Canal Adopted.

Edmunds' Resolution Regarding the Pan
anna Canal Adopted.
WASHINGTON CITY. Jan. Sin the ss,ret
session of the senate yesterday afternoon
there was long and animated discussion of
Edmunds' resolution opposing the inter-
ference of any foreign government with the
Panama Canal. The senate closed its doors
because of the presence in the galleries of
the members of several of the foreign lega-
lions, and because of the announcement in
the papers yesterday morning, through the
medium OF a cablegram from Paris, that the
French people did not like the attitude of
the senate toward their pet project as ex-
planned by the debate in the senate chamber
Saturday
No report of the debate was taken, but
there was no opposition to the spirit of the
resolution, it's timeliness being the only
point upon which there was difference of
opinion expressed. Gray's amendment
offered Saturday was rejected, and the
original resolution amended by substituting
government" for congress" in two places
adopted-49 yeas to nays. The nays were
Blackburn, Vance, and Hampton. The
fact that, owing to the debate, one days de-
bate on the tariff bill was lost was the
reason for extending the time for the final
vote on the latter measure to the I'll inst.
Edmunds' resolutions as passed were as
follows:
Resolved by the senate and house Of represen-
tatves of the United States of America in con-
gress assembled, That the government of the
United States will look with serious concern and
disapproval upon any connection of any Europ
can government with the construction control
OF any ship canal across the isthmus OF Darien
or across Central America, and must regard any
such connection control rs injurious to the
Just rights and interests of the United States,
and as menace to their welfare.
Sec 2. That the president be, and he Is hereby.
requested to communicate this expression of the
views of the government Of the United States to
the governments of the countries OF Europe

me shape OF the Cataract Changed and
the People Alarmed.
NIAGARA FALLS, Jan. S-On last Friday
night a large mass of rock fell from the
precipice OF the Horseshoe, OF Canadian
falls, and on Saturday night al 10 D. m. an
other mass broke away. In both cases the
noise made by the falling rock alarmed the
residents in the vicinity on the Canadian
side. The massive stone building known as
the Table Rock house was Jared to such a
degree that the doors were thrown open
and the occupants who had retired jumped
out of bed greatly excited by the unusual
noise and vibration Of the building, resemb-
ling a severe shock Of earthquake. The same
sensations were experienced at the residsnc
of Gatekeeper Whistler OH Cedar island,
and also half mile up the river where
Gardner McCameron lives. The effect of
these displacaments on the contour Of the
falls is quite marked, the change being from
an angle to the original horseshoe.

Anarchists chance, in which he made one

police. Finally Mr.. Knight got nettled and
he made speech that was powerful, but was
extremely bold and Incorporate, in which he
cautioned Judge Tuley that if he did not
take care, he would usurp powers not con-
ferred by law, and would put himself in the
position of establishing a mischievous pre-
cedent for future "Cardozos.
Judge Tuley replied with vigorous rebuke
of the young lawyer, and said he would
take care not to usurp any function not con.
ferred on him by the law, and in conclusion
said:
II may be that it is much more important that
free speech and the right of peaceful assembly
