As Senator Davis Chairman OF the Com
mittee on Foreign Relations. has officially
stated to senator Morgan that the Hay
Pauncefote Treaty will not be again
brought up for consideration at this ses-
sion Of Congress. the latter is no longer
under any obligation to refrain from press
ing the American Nicaragua Canal bill
senator Morgan is determined to place the
Republican majority on record in the mat
ter, so that the country may be in no doubt
as to what Senators are favorable and
what are unfavorable to the proposition
OF an American canal. TO be built with
American money. and defended with
American guns. Our own idea is that the
Administration is strong enough to pre-
vent legislation at this time. On the other
hand. il is not able TO blind the eyes Of
anybody to the fact that its obstruction Of
the canal project results from a campaign
subscription trade with the plutoCratic
enemies OF the proposed national work.

Mr.. DaIzcUf> Apology

Mr.. DaIzeII's ApoIogy.-The Hon.
John Dalzell is acquiring the unenyiable
reputation as a statesman who is liable to
go of half-cocked. In his speech in the
House yesterday defending the Porto Ri
can bill he referred scathingly TO the sub
sidzed Republican press" Merry shouts
of approving laughter greeted this ;hrlst
on the Democratic side OF the chamber.
Several minutes after the close OF his
speech Mr.. Dalzell rose to a question OF
personal privilege and explained that he
had not meant to say the subsidized Re
publican press but the misguided Re
publican press" of course, the Objec-
ticnable word was kept out of the Rec
ord" Mr. DalZell made a similar break
when he made his first speech on the Por-
to Rican bill a month ago. In that aTgu-
ment he took the bold ground that Con-
gress had power under the Constitution,
as that instrument is construed by the Re-
publicans to levy discriminating imposts
upon the productive energies of Arizona,
New Mexico. Oklahoma, Alaska and the
District of Columbia, as well as Porto
Rico. the Philippines, and other outlying
territory, on the ground that the commu-
mites mentioned are Territories and not
States The Pennsylvania very carefully

Has 81 Black Eye.-The Hon. f. W.
Carmack has returned to Washington with
a black eye. This is Of especial interest in
view of the fact that Mr.. Carmack has
been personally looking after his interests
in the warm Senatorial campaign now in
progress in Tennessee. Additional interest
attaches to the circumstance when il is
known that Mr.. Carmack is asking the
people of Tennessee to elevate him to the
Senate on a platform opposed to expansion.
His chief opponent, Supreme Court Justice
Snodgrass, is running on an expansion
platform, while the third man in the race
Governor McMillin has not yet committed
himself on this great and overshadowing
issue. Neither of these gentlemen has yet
accumulated a black eye. Mr.. Carmack's
right optic is covered with dark green
shade, and he is being kept busy explain
ing to his colleagues in the House that
he is suffering with an attack of iritis.
Still, there are incredulous statesmen
among them who wink when his back is
turned and intimate the belief that the
ailment which he says has befallen him
is only an ill-omen of what is to happen
before the Senatorial campaign is closed
unless he adjusts his platform to the tra-
ditional policy of his party. At the same
time. there is much sympathy for Mr..
Carmack in his present unhappy plight
and the hope is universal that whatever
has caused his black eye may soon be
eradicated from the atmosphere of Tenn
