Nicaraguan Minister Speaks of the Treaties
with European Nations.

Washington. February 13-Referring to
the statement In the London Standard that
Belgium and France would unite in pro-
test against American control of the Mica
ragua canal based on their treaties with
Nicaragua, Mr.. Coerra, the minister from
is manifestly in error so far as It refers to
Belgium as | can not recall that Mica
ragua has ever made a treaty with Bel
GUM in reference to the canal. The
only treaties which have been made con-
corning the canal are those with Costa
Rica. Spain, France. Great Britain and the
United States In the order named But
these treaties do no refer to any share
in constructing the canal or any control
over it, but simply to its use as water
way or highway OF commerce for the yes
sells OF those nations. As there Is no prop
ostion to restrict this usage on equal
terms to the commerce Of all nations there
hardly seems to be any ground for issuing
protest"
MIR. Correa said the treaty between
France and Nicaragua was negotiated In
Washington in 1859 between the French
and Nicaraguan ministers stationed here
and its article referring to the canal is as
follows:
Article 81. The republic of Nicaragua by
the present treaty grants to France and to
French subjects, as well as to French
