stage of affairs and that which existed at
the time of the Venezuela dispute, and bit
terly arraigns President Mckinley and the
Senate, yet Lord Pouncefote has not cabled
word to the Foreign Office. which only
heard of the vote on the Davis amendment
through the Associated Press.
Such pessmistic cable messages as the
dailieS are receiving from most of their
Downing street, where depreciation Is freely
expressed of the cabled efforts to apprise
the British public of how badly the Senate
is alleged to be treating their government
The Foreign Office officials, while expecting
the treaty to .be amended, were frankly
surprised at the size of the majority, which
served more than anything else to open
their eyes to the fact that there was
truth in the cabled statements that the
railroad interests were solely responsible
for the opposition, or that irrational lingo
ism had suddenly become epidemic i'm the
United States
There exists i'm the Foreign Office a sane
appreciation Of the American objections to
building the canal and not being allowed to
fortlfy 1t. Yet at the same Time" to
quote an official, I'VE do not see why the
treaty which we made with the people who
we believed to be the responsible represent
atives of America should be treated so
cavalierly by the Senate. We do not regard
the present issues as of any great impor-
lance, for We doubt IL the Nicaragua canal
will ever be paying investment, and who
ever builds it, it will be of little use to
England, either in peace war. What we
do regret is the apparent hopeiessness of
making treaties with country whose Sem
ate takes such opposite views to those ii
empowers to act in its behalf. There seems
to be an impression In America that the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty was secured by the
acuteness of the British representative and
gave England an unfair advantage. That
view has never existed here In fact, rather
the reverse. However, we shall not bother
our heads about the matter until the SEN
ate finishes its labors and we receive the
results through diplomatic channels. We
are anxious to know what America really
does want, and until we know it is absurd
TO surmise what to do. However, the Clay
ton-Bulwer treaty worked satisfactorily for
years, and as new treaties seem to cause
dissensions in America, maybe it is just as
we'll if we are obliged to revert to the for
mer agreement, the bindingness and equity
of which we have never for a moment
doubted, in spite of our concessions in the
Hay-PauncefOte treaty"
