CANAL CANNOT BE FORTIFIED.
England WIN Not Consent Despite SEN
atcr Lodges Assertion to the
Contrary.

NEW YORK, Dec. 10.-The London
correspondent Of the Tribune writes:
Senator Lodge is credited with having
expressed the opinion that the British
government viii accept the amendment
TO the canal treaty and allow the Unit
ed Sta;es 10 tortify the ends Of the Mic
arag'ia waterway.
The grounds on which he bases hat
opinion are not explained. The foreign
Office has not committed itself on the
subject and cannot be expected to do so
In;il the question is brought forward in
a diplomatic way. All the inferenees Of
the case are against the additional con-
cessions which Senator Lodge considers
necessary.
Lord Salisbury. Arthur Balfour Mr.
Chamberlain and other members of the
ministry are known in diplomatic cir
cles to have expressed themselves with
out equivoeation. They have said that
England would not consent to the for
tif:cation Of the entrances to the canal.
Only one English journal has intimat-
ed that it would be matter Of indiffer-
ence TO England whether the entrances
We're fortified or not. This iz the Spec
tator. a Journal exceptionally favorable
TO America on all international ques-
tions. Senator Lodge has regarded ap-
parently the Spectator as an organ Of
diplomatic opinions, whereas it repre-
sents English optimism and idealism
and is not in close touch with the for
eign Office
1t is safe to infer that Secretary Hay
while he was in London discussed the
Cleyton-Bulwer treaty and the princi-
pies Of canal diplomacy with Lord Sal
isbury and Mr.. Balfour and knows how
far they are prepared to go in the re-
vision Of the Clayton-B -Bulwer treaty.

Canadian Contingent Deny stories Of
British Brutality In South
Africa.

NEW YORK. Dec. iO,--A dispatch to
the Tribune from London says:
The Canadian contingent attended
service yesterday in two detachments,
one going to st, Paurs and the otner

Impressive effect, the voices Of the sol-
dlers ringing out high above the organ
and choir. Chelsea Hospital was visited

ing the evening. The regiment viii take
a special train for Liverpool this morn
ing and win have an official reception
there, with glimpses OF docks and town
shows. The Canadians viii sleep on
their steamship and win sail for home
early on Tuesday
The reception OF the heroes Of Paards-
burg has not been marred by a single
unpleasant episode and the appearance
and bearing Of the officers and men
have been greatly admired. The good
feeling existing between them and the
British regulars is noticeable. They
have fought side by side with the best
regiments of the British army and 4
spirit OF good fellowship has been Gre
ated which will be a bond Of the
queens dominions.
Many men resent the idea that there
has been ruthless destruction Of prop
erty by the British army in South Az
rica. They assert that Lord Roberts
and General Buffers orders were string
ent on this subject and that discipline
has heen maintained by heavy penal
ties. Pole-Carew was the first general
to order the burning OF a farm house
and this was done in consequence Of the
Boer treachery and . flagrant white
ilag outrage. The precedent was sane
TONED By Lord Roberts and the de-
structiop OF farms has been restricted
to Incidents Of similar treachery. Pri-
vate property has been scrupulously re-
spected whenever there has been no
justification fer punitive action.
An Illustration was cited Of a penalty
exacted from British officers under Gen
eraI BUNDLES command. They had en-
tered u deserted farm house in the Or
ange River Colony and not finding
wood with which to kindle a fire for
having their dinner cooked had torn
down and split up a door and had re-
plenished the fire with a wooden stand
OF a sewing machine. General Rumble.
when complaint was made by the own
er OF the house. investigated the case
and assessed the damage at $40, which
the officers were forced to pay.

BRIBERY AT ELECTIONS.

A bill to amend the constitution so
as to apply the penalties for bribery at
elections to the bride giver alone, has
been introduced by Senator Williams,
O! Hartford.
Speaking of this bill Senator VIII
liams says:
at seems 70 be conceded on all hands
that seine steps should be taken to
prevent the heavy use Of money for
election purposes, which all have seen
and felt for many years, and the ex-
tent of which has 50 rapidly increased
say in 10 years past. Various meas
ures have been before the recent Legis-
laturc, but on no one of these measures
has there been such an agreement of
sentiment as to eff, ct it's passage.
while these are being considered
there is this stumbling block to punish
ment of bribery under the present
law. he constitution requires the pun
ishment of both briber and bribed, and
neither will furnish evidence against
the other.
Amend the constitution and provide
for the punishment of the briber only.
He will then he careful how he fur
nishes money and puts himself in the
power Of one who is willing to sell his
moved it may make conviction posi-
bic under the present law, and if so
then there is step in the right direc-
ton and one of the reasons why candi-
dates and their friends can be so easily
induced to furnish money is taken
away.
