THE HAY-PAUNcEForE TREATY.
The Senate in Executive Session Dis
cusses the Proposed Amendment.

Washington, April s-Ou motion OF
Senator Davis. the senate today con-
sidered the Hay-Pauncefote treaty for
the modification Of the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty, behind closed doors. About
three hours was spent in discussing
the amendment to the treaty made by
the senate committee on foreign rela-
tions providing that none OF the con-
ditions and ~stipulations in sections l.
.. 3. 1 and ). OF article >. shall apply
to measures which the United States
may find IL necessary TO take for Sc
curing. by its own forces. the defense
of the United States and TIE mainte-
nance OF public order"
Senator Davis opened the debate
with a general statement in support of
the treaty, but referred to the omis-
sion of any provision permitting the
United States to defend It's property.
which he characterized as a palpable
error and an omission with which he
would n o be satisfied
Senator Platt. Of Connecticut said
the amendment was unnecessary.
Senator Lodge. of Massachusetts.
pleaded for it. saying We should lose
no opportunity TO provide for safe
guarding our interests In all exigencies
that may arise.
Senator Morgan. Of Alabama occu-
pied most Of the executive session. His
speech was a plea for neutrality as the
best guarantee of the safety and use
fulness of the canal. He said il was
to be a highway for h OF
the nations and that the proposed
amendment, not only would fail to pro-
vide for its protection. but might be
the means Of causing complications
which otherwise never could arise.
He cOntended that IL this
was inserted IL would require. not only
Notifications and the maintenance Of
the troops at probably both ends OF he
canal. but also the maintenance Of
b~attleships, coaling stations and sup
ply depots in that vicinity. The provis-
ion was calculated in times of emer-
gency to make the termini OF the canal
great battle grounds and to invite COM
plications with other nations. which
woul be avoided in case of the main
tenance of absolute neutrality.
He also commended against the ne
cessity for the amendment as a pre-
cautionary measure, arguing that in
case of war we would take possession
of the canal without any previous
agreement. I'm case of war" he said,
I'VE would almost certainly assume
that the nation to the controversy had
broken the agreement n act accord
ingly."
Asked by Senator Mason IL he
thought it would be consistent on the
part of Great Britain to fortify Jamai-
ca and still prevent our terrifying the
mouth of the canal, Senator Morgan
replied that the neutrality provision
only extended to the three mile limit
and not to a place so distant as ia
maica. Notifications Of outlying pos
sessions, he said. We're constantly going
on, and the good faith OF no nation
could be attacked BECAUSE of them
During the controversy, Senator VOL
colt asked several question indicating
his opposition to the amendment, while
Senator Mason, by the same course.
indicted his opposition to the treaty
without the amendment. Neither Of
them, however. made any affirmative
statement.
