The senate committee on foreign affairs
recommended to that body on saturday the
passage of a bill guaranteeing the interest
ON slOO. OOO. OOO Of bonds at 3 per cent for
the construction Of the Nicaragua canal.
The ultimate purpose Of this measure Is to
keep the canal in American control With
out government guaranty the canal com
pany would be obliged to sell its bonds at
a discount in the best market, which would
he London With majority of the bonds
held abroad 1t would be easy for England

policy in buying from Egypt the control
OF the Suez canal and this would mean the
passage of this American enterprise and

a heresy trial which attracted more than
ordinary attention, it being the first of the
kind ever held in the Episcopal communion,
took place at Cleveland, Ohio, last week.
Rev. Howard MecQueary. Episcopal rector
n, Canton, Ohio, while accepting the gen
eral doctrines of the church and the
truth of the Bible, rejects the story of the
miraculous birth and the bodily resurrec-
ton Of Jesus These views ne maintains
IN book recently published by him on
Evolution and Christianity For hold
ing to such belief and promulgating it Mr..
MacQueary was brought TO book by the
bishop VI the diocese and his trial before an
ecclesiastical court took place as stated
MIR MacQueary defence was, IN general
terms that views similar to his own are
held boy churchmen of eminence both in
England and in this country, and that the
spiritual validity Of the Bible, or Of the
teaching OF jesus, is not impaired by the
rejection Of the miraculous element The
court withheld its decision

Connecticut also has "a very pretty cleo
tlon muddIe on its hands. On the face OF
the returns, as made 10y the state board OF
canvassers. the Democratic candidates for
state officers were elected in November.
The Republicans, however, claim frauds
and the right TO investigate the alleged
throwing ont Of prohibition votes TO an ex-
tent which if proven, would upset the
Democratic ma jorities. The Democratic
senate has declared Mr. Morris and the
other Democratic candidates for state offices
duly elected, but that declaration is Of no
effect unless made by both houses The
Republican house not only refuses to Join
in this declaration, but mas appointed
committee 10 90 behind the returns and in
quire into the election. What will be the
way out of this controversy it is not easy
10 forecast All legislative business is prac-
tically suspended until the Goth, when &C
ton will have to be taken on the election
of a United States senator, The senate
went through the formality of swearing in
the Democratic candidates-elect on Tues
day.
The Behring sea controversy, 10 which
an editorial was devoted in this paper last
week, has been given an unexpected and
sensational turn by the action of the Cana
dian attorney general, sanctioned by the
British government, in asking the United
States supreme court, through Joseph H
Choate of New York, acting as attorney
for the Dominion government, for a writ
of prohibition aud annulment of the action
of the district court Of Alaska in dealing with
an English seal fishing ship, the Sayward
seized by our government while poaching
in Alaskan waters and taken into an Amer
lean port. An appeal in the Sayward case
has been pending for year IN the supreme
court, and the purpose of this move by the
British government is 10 have the Behring
sea controversy, now pending between
Great Britain and the United States
brought directly before that court for final
decision. The court named day two
weeks distant for hearing the arguments of
counsel in the case. 1t is supposed that the
answer of our state department TO this
piece Of English sharp practice will be that
such a course is unusual and unwarranted
in an international question like this which
is open To arbitration

One of the many good things done
by the 29th Legislative Assembly was
the repeal Of the $500 exemption law.
All the property Of the territory usu-
ally taxable anywhere, will now pay
taxes. Under this $500 exemption
clause a very large amount of property
paid nothing. 1t was a source of great
fraud upon those who did pay, as it is
well-known that many well-to-do peo-
pie abundantly able to pay, managed,
under it, through greed, to escape all
taxation. 1t was in large part this
abuse of what was intended to be a
beneficent provision, that led to its
Tepeal.-Headlight.
