A DIPLOMATIC MEMORANDUM.
The Agreement with Nicaragua
Hinges on Treaty Rntifcn.ic..

The agreement signed yesterday at
Mansgus between the Nicaraguan Minis
ter of Foreign Affairs and the United
States Minister was not in The form of
q treaty. but was merely memorandum.
in which each of the contracting parties
sets forth what il will do TO further the
construction Of the Isthmian Canal, in the
event that the Hay Pauncefote Treaty is
ratified by the United States Senate.
The Governments Of Great Britain and
the United States regard the Clayton Bull
wer Treaty as Still Ia force. and holding
that view they are bound to consider that
any treaty with Nicaragua providing for
the cession OF territory for an inter.
oceanic canal would be a violation Of the
terms Of the Clayton Bulwer Convention.
Therefore, the agreement signed yester-
day is a statement only of what Nicaragua
will concede 10 the United States in he
way of territorial rights II the existing
treaty between this Government and that
of Great Britain is superseded by the
Hay -Pauncefote Treaty, and OF the quid
pro quo given by the United States to Mic
sragua.
The agreement is the same as that sign
ed soon after the first Hay Pauncefote
Treaty was signed. In substance it pro-
vides that II the new canal treaty becomes
operative Nicaragua will cede to the
United States three miles Of her territory
on each side Of the canal route. A sim
liar agreement will be made with Costa
Rica.
The ratification OF the Hay PauncefOte
Treaty win be followed by the perfection
of conventions with Nicaragua and Costa
Rica to carry into effect. formally, the
terms Of the memorandum.

GIRL LAWYER In MURDER CASE.
Young Woman Assists Father ms
Counsel for Defence.


PoUGHKEEPsIE, y. Y, Dec. 1O.-When
Michael Brennan, of Dover Plains, was
arraigned in County Court today on
charge Of murder in the second degree
for killing Andrew Keogh more than
ordinary interest was aroused in the case
because he was defended by Miss Mary
Coleman. a pretty girl lawyer from New
York, assisted by her father, Capt Hugh
Coleman. and ex-captain in the Sixty
ninth Regiment Of New York.
Miss Coleman looks to be considerably
under thirty She was tecomingly dressed,
and had a quaint beauty and lively
and vivaci9us manner that made her n
bright figure in the crowded and dingy
court room.
Her knowledge of the rules governing
testimony and her keenness in disclosing
the bias of jurors won for her the instant
respect of the district attorney and his
assistant Breenan claims that Keogh in
suited his mother, and that the killing
was not premeditated.
Miss Coleman is graduate of New
York University, and was admitted to the
bar two years ago.

SCOW SOLVES PROBLEM
Fresh Water Is Now Easily Ob- taiued At Sitka

According to news received In thls city Capt Kilgorc of tho revenue cutter Rush. has solved the problem of obtainlng n sup ply of fresh water at sitka, with which government vessels In the past have al- ways had to contend. He has constructed water scow. carrying between six and seven thousand gallons. which win be iiIl- by new method. the work of supplying cessels with water being thereby greatly facilitated.
 Uudcr Capt. Kiigore's orders n galvan- lzcd Iron pipe has been connected with tho water system Of the Presbyterian mission on the Indian river, the common source of frcsh water supply. and the pipe has been led to the end Of Mission wharf. The new water scow can be con vcniently filled from this pipe.
 The importance of the change may be readily seen when 1t Is known that the old method of carrying a supply of fresh water for government vcssels--a method In vogue for a quarter of century-was to send boats to Jamestown bay, three miles distant from the anchorage. These boats wcrc filled with water and either towcd or pulled back to the ship.
 Capt Kilgore has nlcd claim to liar bor island. in Sitka harbor with the sur vcyor general, retaining the island as government reserve for tho use of the revenue cutter service. The adoption of this island as a site for the revenue cutter service establishment for Southeast Alas ka has been urgently recommended to the department. as 1t affords an excellent location for the erection of a coal shed and store house The coai shed. as plan ned will hold 1000 tons of coal. while the wharf will be of such dimension as will accommodate at the same time two of the largest vessels In the service.
