Olympia. Feb. 14.-Special-
DORIS bill, fezating to sales under exc
cution. was not reported unanimously
by the judiciary committee, and the
merits and dement's Of the bill were
discussed at length when the bill came
UP for final passage. 1t provides that
in al cases where real or other property
is sold under execution, foreclosure or
other judicial proceedings. which at
the tinle OF such sale Is subject to
redemption. the Judgment debtor shall
be entitled 10 the possession. and 10 the
rents. issues and profits OF such prop
erty during the fun period provided BY
law for redemption. The bill passed by
a vote OF % 10 5, but lacked the neces-
siry majority to pass the emergency
clause. Senator Dorr then gave notice
that he would move 10 reconsider the
vote by which the emergency clause
was lost. The opponents of the OH con-
tended that while the present statute
prstects the creditor TO the detrinent
OF the debtor. this bill simply reverses
the situation and protects the debtor TO
the detrament OF the creditor. Senators
Brown, Lewis. yesterday and Wilson,
all members Of the judiciary and prac-
ticing attorneys. took part in the de-
bale. and said they favored legislation
that wiz protect both classes equally
A number OF bills of this class have been
introduced.

Reports of the flood at Winona, Mo-

told only part of the horrors of the dis
aster. Owing to the fact that Winona Is
in mountainous region almost inaccess-

washed away, news of a flood is hard to
obtain. Railway connection will be es-
tablished this afternoon by running a
train on either end OF the Current River
branch of the Kansas City, Fort Scott &
Memphis road, but 1t will be several days
before the gap can be closed up in the
road. Several officials of the railway and
other parties left for Winona on special
train this morning to render all assistance
possible to the flood stricken people

London. July Elm an interview with a

quhoun. who is preparing an important
work dealing with the whole question of
the Nicaragua canal, said he regretted
his inability to fully discuss the matter
before the appearance of his books, but
he gave certain particulars regarding the
proposed canal. Asked If the scheme was
practicable, Colquhoun emphatically re-
piled: Undoubtedly 1t is practicable. /
feel certain of that, but there are many
points of engineering importance requir-
Ing certain and full discussion. The Am
erican commission is composed of men
of the highest ability, and will. believe,
issue an impartial report, not in any way
based on party lines
1.-THE project is. from an engineering
point of view. very fine one. OF the 69lz
miles. the total length from Greytown,
on the Atlantic. to Breto, on the Pacific,
12A miles will be unimpeded navigation
of the river San Juan and Lake Nicara-
qua, 12l2 miles will be through artificial
basins, making the total distance 421k
miles in which ships can travel with
little or no restriction. There will be only
26s4 miles of actual digging to be done.
1.-The canal. in my opinion, will be uni
versally greater in Importance than the
Suez canal and will largely revolutionize
the spring routes of the world. For the
United States the canal will not only have
the effect of developing the trade of the
Pacific slope and southern states but
will more especially open up the mag
nficent lands of the Mississippi at pres
ent lost to the commerce of the world"
