The Canal Project.
"The sentiment in this country In favor
Of the construction and control OF tho
Nicaraguan canal by this government is
Sd overwhelming as to be almost unAni-

ish interests, and By private arrangement
between Lord Salisbury and Secretary
Hay a treaty was made reyiYing the de-
fupct Clayton Bulwer treaty, and thus II
dependent action on the part OF the United
States was temporarily prevented.
Secretary HAY, in Difference 10 Doi

possible to deceive themselves as 10

Nevertheless the country at large
