Naval Treaty.
Washington, May 8. - It is learned
from an authoritative source that be-
fore Secretary Hay left here for the
West he had several conferences with
Lord Pauncefote relative to the basis
for another Isthmian canal treaty, and
that an unofficial written memoran-
dunn also was submitted to Lord
Pauncefote on the subject. The am
bassador has made known the general
results of these conversations and Of
the memorandum to the authorities in
London, and 1t is doubtless to this that
allusion is made in the London dis.
patches. It is said, however, that the
negotiations are go tentative and in.
formal that they are not regarded as
an official exchange or proposition.
