Washington, Dec 12.-The senate
agreed to vote before adjournment
Monday on the new Hay-Pauncefote
treaty. This agreement was reached
after a four hours debate sufficiently
interesting to insure the constant
attention Of most senators. Senator
Spooner, who was one of the principal
speakers, had just concluded when
Senator Lodge made an effort %
secure a vote. 1t developed there
were other senators who desired to b.
heard, the result being the date for
the vote was postponed until Monday
The agreement provided for the adj
journment of the senate from today
until Monday. The principal speakers
beside Senator SpOOner were Senators
Money and Foraker Mr.. Money,
while finding much in the treaty to
criticise, said as he found the fortunes
of the proposed canal across tn
isthmus inextricably intertwined with
the treaty he could not see his way
clear to do anything that would pre-
vent or even delay the ratification.
Senator Foraker maintained the pro
visions of the new treaty would meet
every objection made to the origina'
Hay-PauncefOte treaty and cover
every essential thing included in the
amendments made by the senate to
that document. He remarked as Of
the utmost Importance that the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty should be wiped
out. He asserted that all the rights
of the United States were amply pro-
tected under this treaty and our
absolute and complete control Of the
canal could not be questioned by
Great Britain or any other power
Senator Bacon asked if it was not
true that under the terms of the
treaty the construction Of fortifica-
tons by the United States would be
an act of war. Senator Foraker re-
piled in the negative, declaring that
not only would such an act not be an
act Of hostility, but to build fortifica-
tIons in case Of necessity was one Of
the Inherent rights Of the government.
Senator Spooner also was frequently
interrupted by senators ON the demo
cratic side. Answering these, ne
maintained that England, after con-
tending for half a century against
Notifications, had waived that pro-
vision, thus practically conceding our
right to fortify the proposed canal
During the Interruptions many sena-
tors on both sides took part in the
controversy. Senator Spooner CON
tended that the United States would
have the right to control the canal
after its own manner during any war
to which this country might be a
party. Senator Mason interiected
that theaty agreements never bind
nation to the extinction of it's military
rights and duties. Senator Spooner
assented and said no matter what
might be the provisions Of the treaty
a nation could not be accused of dis
honor or immortality if it's terms were
broken in defense Of it's own ex-
istence

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE senate
went into executive session to further
consider the Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
Two speeches were made, one by Sen
ator Bacon in opposition to the treaty
and one by Senator Cullom, prospect
i've chairman of the committee on
foreign relations, in support of it. Sen
ator Bacon replied to the speech
made Tuesday by Senator Lodge. He
summed up his objections in the state
ment that he could not freely accept
any treaty which does not place the
isthmian canal under American
auspices and American control. This,
he said, the pending treaty does not
do, nor does it do anything like it. 1t
did not by long odds accomplish
what had been accomplished by senate
amendments made to the Hay-Paunce-
tote treaty at the last session of con-
gress. He said the war restrictions of
the treaty were entirely inconsistent
with the claims of Senator Lodge
| that this country should say who
could use the canal and who should
not in case of hostil1ties. In con-
| clusion Senator Bacon announced that
while he had no intention of voting
for the treaty he would do nothing to
obstruct the ratification. Senator
| Cullom contended the new treaty
radically changed the conditions
presented by the first Hay-Paunce-
fote treaty, clearly relieving it of the
necessity Of such an amendment as
that made to the old treaty upon the
suggestion of Senator Davis because
the treaty itself would permit the
United States under international
| law to own, manage and defend the
canal in any way that it may choose.
