Amended So AS to Permit Construction
of Nicaragua Canal.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 6.-The United
States and Great Britain, it has been
definitely learned, have reached an
amicable agreement respecting the op-
GRAFTON of the Clayton Bulwer treaty as
affecting the right of construction and
control by the United States of the pro-
posed Nicaragua canal. The result
marks the termination of the confer
ence between the officials of the state
department and Lord Pauncefote Of
fully years duration, during which
number of meetings were held and
the subject fully discussed by the rep
resentatives of the governments inter
ested. Great Britain agrees to mod
itication of the Clayton-B -Bulwer treaty
by which she practically relinquishes
any claims respecting legal contrc
Of the Nicaragua canal after it shall
have been constructed. The result
thereof is to eliminate that feature of
the treaty bearing upon the subject of
dual control and TO leave the United
States free to construct and thereafter
control this great inter-oceanic water
way. From the same authoritive
quarter it is ascertained that England
has made no demands for a quid. pro
quo for her abandonment of whatever
rights she may have had under the
treaty and which she now promises to
relinuuiSh,
