CANAL TREATY IN DANGER
AMENDMENT NOT ACCEPTABLE TO THE
ADMINISTRATION AND PROBABLY
NOT TO ENGLAND

Washington. March 10.-Lord Pauncefote. the
British Ambassador, in conference with
Secretary Hay for half hour at the State
Department to-day. The officials have nothing
to say about the future of the pending Hay
Pauncefote Treaty. 1t is plain TO be seen,
however, that the action of the Foreign Rea-
tions Committee in making the amendment
yesterday is not acceptable and Is regarded by
the officials greatly epdangering the life OF
the treaty.
If the Senate first adopts this amendment and
then ratifies the treaty-a conclusion by no
means certain IN the official mind-it Is said that
the President will feel obliged to approve it,
placing the responsibility on the Senate and
then leaving it to the British Government to
accept reject. The officials believe that the
British Government Will reject the treaty, and
in that case the Clayton -Bulwer Treaty VIII
prevail again, its force having been recognized,
according to the officials. not only by the ex-
ecutiVe branch of this Government In preparing
this pending treaty, but also by the Senate, as
shown in the report which accompanied the
treaty yesterday.
New-York tribune., 1900-03-11
ENGLANDs ACTION UNCERTAIN.

London, March 10.-No action has been taken
by the Government regarding the amendment of
the Hay-PauncefOte Treaty reported in the
long cable dispatches dealing with the action OF
the Foreign Relations Committee. The United
States Government apparently has made no rep
reservations to Lord Salisbury since the treaty
signed, and the affair seems unlikely to be
officially discussed until the final action of the
Senate puts it into such shape that it becomes a
matter for diplomatic reconsideration. Pending
this official opinion is reserved and 1t is i'm
possible to say what action Great Britain Is
likely to take regarding the Senate's amend
ments of the treaty
The Pail Mall Gazette" comments on the new
situation as follows:
The Foreign Relations Committee has GER
tainly gone far to wreck the Hay-PauncefOte
Treaty, if only for this reason, that Powers
other than the two most directly concerned
might refuse to acquesce in the modification,
even if the British Government accepted it. A
fresh start it may be- will have to be made after
the Presidential election.
