Government Aid Asked by DoIph for the
Nicsragu> Canal.
WASHINGTON, March 2. - In the Senate
to-day D0lph, in presenting petitions from
his State favoring Government aid for the
Nicaragua Canal, said he was urgently in
iavor OF such legislation. He regarded it as
the most important public question that Is
now, or that has been in the last quarter of
century, before Congress and before the
American people. He was not saDguine as
to the ability OF the canal company to secure
the construction and completion of the
canal. and he wished to see the United
States at the head of the matter. First,
because he desired to have the canal speed
lily constructed; second, because he desired
that, when constructed, ii should be under
the control of the United States, and third,
because he desired the canal to be capital
lied only at its actual cost. The value of
the canal when constructed to the people of
the Pacific Coast and to the people of the
United States would depend largely on the
amount for which the company was capital
lied. He therefore was earnestly in favor
OF Government aid to secure the early COM
pletioD of the canal.
The Idaho election case was then taken
up.

Teller, who was to close the debate, said he
