WILL NOT RATlFY.
Several Senators Will Oppose the
Treaty With England.

New York, Feb. Ga special
to the journal and Advertiser
from Washington says:
AT a hurriedly called meeting of
various senator's Monday night it
was determined to oppose the lat
ifcation of the Clayton Bulwer
treaty as it applies to the Nicara
guam canal, which was abrogated
on Saturday. The leaders in the
opposition are Senator Platt and
Hawley of Cincinnati, Mason OF
Illinois and several others.
The treaty is regarded, in fact,
by some of the most conservative
senators on both sides, as an often
sive and defensive alliance with
Great Britain; that it clos cyl assO-
ciates the two countries in the con
troll of purely American project
that under its provisions the Unit
ed States abandons the right to
defend its own property in return
for the promise of assistance from
Great Britain whenever assistance
for the canals neutrality shall be
required. Instead of the treaty be-
ing ratified promptly the oppOsi-
ton to its ratification in its present
form will insist on its being re-
ferred to the committee on foreign
relations for revision and with the
instruction to insert the following !:
THE contracting parties fur
ther engaged that when the canal
shall have been completed. the
government of the United States
shall have the right, in case the
United States is at war with any
nation, to take temporary posses
sion of, defend and fortify the
canal and its approaches without
prejudice to the commercial rights
of any other nation guaranteed by
the neutrality of the canal.
There seems to be no doubt that
the treaty in its present shape can
not get through the senate.
