The House.

Washington, May 2. For the first
time during the fifty years of agita-
ton Of the project Of the construction
of an interoceanic canal the house Of
representatives yesterday entered upon
N>Se consideration of q measure to
actually authorize the building of a
canal. Many times propositions bear
ing upon the subject have been be-
fore the house. but this was the first
time positive action can be predicted.
The bill will be voted upon before ad-
journment to-day. The debate yes.
terday was memorable because OF the
unexpected powerful oppositionait de-
yelOped. Mr.. Burton OF, Ohio, chair
, man of the rivers md harbors fcom-
mittee: Mr.. Hit Of Illinois. Chairman
OF the foreign affairs committee threw
the weight Of their influence aRathst
it. not because they are opposed to the
building Of the canal, but because they
considered the time for authorizing its
construction was not ripe. 81 Mr.. Bur
ton and Mr.. Hit contended the hill
would violate the Clayton-B ulwer
treaty. which guarantees the neutral
ity of the canal. and Mr. Cannon
quoted Admiral Walker, chairman of.
the isthmian canal commission. as
saving that the commission was not
vet prepared to say which was the;
best route. Mr.. Cannon c0ntended2 that
the authorizations of; the construction
of the. canal over the Nicara guam route
at this time would delay Its building
