WHAT THE TREATY MEANS.
The Administration Thoroughly Conn
mttted to the Nicaraguan
Canal Project.

Special Dispatch to the Post-Intelligencer.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 5.--The unexpected
announcement that treaty has been con-
cluded here by Secretary Hay and Ambas-
sador Pauncefote illustrates several IN
stances in connection with the Nicaragua
canal legislation during the present session
intention of the administration to secure
the enactment OF the canal bin at the
earliest possible moment.
The United States agrees that the canal
shall be neutral and remain open on equal
terms to vessels of all nations In time of
war as well as peace. The provisions of
neutrality. the convention recites, shall
be similar in terms and meaning to
the provisions affecting the neutrality OF
the Suez canal. The canal Is not to be
the subject of blockade, no act OF war shall
be exercised, or hostility committed within
a radius OF three miles from its ports of
entry, no fortifications are to be erected
at each end or upon the canal itself.
The canal being the property OF the
United States, and built with American
capital. all profits of navigation of the
waterway will 20 to the United States. but
there will be no discrimination in favor
Of American vessels. and they will pay the
same dues and other tolls as are imposed
on the same vessels of other nations
The convention concluded today contains
no reference TO Alaska or anything else
Of that nature, nor any suggestion or men
ton Of any equivalent TO England With
equal emphasis 1t can be added that there
il no treaty between the two governments
which induced Great Britain to yield what
she has done.
