HAY SOUNDING SENATORS
Ascertaining Basis of Treaty with
Great Britain Which Will Be
Acceptable to Them.
FINDS IT is NOT AN EASY UNDERTAKING
Ambassador Pauncefote May Delay
His Departure for London In Or
der to Learn the Basis on Which
America Is Willing to Negotiate
Treaty with His Government.

Washington, April 15.--There is au.
thority for the following statement of
the status of the Panama negotia.
tons:
After the adjournment of the senate
and the lapse of the pending Hay
Pauncefote treaty, Secretary Hay de-
, cided to pursue the subject further.
But toavoid the possibility of another
(, failure for the saline reason as brought
about the loss of the HayPauncefote
| treaty, the secretary determined to
reverse the usual method of procedure
in framing treaties. He therefore
concluded to first consult the ratify-
ing powers of the United States sem
ate to ascertain if it was possible for
the senators to agree upon the basis of
a treaty, which should be at the same
time acceptable to the executive
branch of the government and to Great
Britain.
Sounding Senator's.
1t was realized that unless two
thirds at least of the senate could be
brought into agreement in advance
upon the basis of treaty, it would be
perfectly useless for the executive to
embark in negotiations with Great
Britain for the formation of another
convention. Secretary Hay is devot.
ing himself now to the ascertainment
of the feelings and desires of the sen.
ators and consequently, not having
completed this work, he has not begun
negotiations with Great Britain for
new treaty.
Not an Easy Task.
1t is not an easy undertaking to test
the senate in this fashion, not only be-
cause of the number of senators who
must be sounded. but also because Of
the indecision of some of the men who
rank as leaders. 1t is not even possible
to predict now. because the results OBJ
tanned are so inconclusve, that the
state department will be able to &C:
quaint Lord Pauncefote with the basis
upon which it is willing to negotiate
for treaty before the ambassador
sails for London next June.
Pnuncefote May Delay Departure.
1t is even possible that Lord Paunce=
fote may feel it incumbent upon him
to delay his departure for time, or
even to omit his leave altogether if by
so doing he can ascertain the senator's
al conditions. for the ambassador is
naturally DESTROYS toassure himself OF
success before he again undertakes to
frame a treaty which shall bear his
name.
1t follows, negotiations not having
been started, that nothing has passed
between the governments of the Unit
ed States and Great Britain respecting
q quid pro QUO to be demanded by
Great Britain in consideration of the
restrictions imposed by the Clayton
Bulwer treaty.

CLAIMS OF THE POWERS.
Russia and Germany Disposed to BE
Exorbitamt I'm Their Deman
on China.

Washington. April l5.-The last adj
vices to the state department from
| Mr.. Rockhill contain further details
respecting the amount of the in
| IDENTITIES claimed from China by the
powers. 1t appears that these claims
have been much exaggerated in some
statements, though the sum total is
still far in excess of the amount Of
money it is believed here that China
can raise. 1t is the belief of the state
| department that the total claims
should not be allowed to exceed
$3.50, 100000 or $aOO,Ooo,OOO. Accord
ing to information received here the
British claim, so far as formulated,
| is reasonable in amount as compared
| with other claims. In fact the
United States, Great Britain and
tions the moderate element whose
desire is to prevent the imposition
of charges that shall destroy the
Chinese government and result in
the division of the empire. None of
of the claims exceeds $loO,O0O,000 and
even the largest is something less
than this amount. This is believed
to be the Russian claim, which Is
fixed at seo.oOO,O0O. The German
claim is flexible, ranging between
Seo,ooO,Ooo and $so,OOo,oOO, but is
nearer the former mark at present,
though it doubtless will grow. AS al
ready stated the claim of the
United States is $25,OOo,000, and with
these few totals in mind it will be
seen that If the remaining powers
are to be allowed proportionate
share. the aggregate will be beyond
China's ability to pay, which has
been tentatively estimated at $780,
100000.
Nothing has yet been determined
respecting the method of raising the
indemnity fund, even after an agree
ment is reached
London, April 15.-Joseph Cham
berlain's organ, The Birmingham
Post, learns that the Russian minis
ters of war and marine have issued
joint orders for the laying of an
extensive system of submarine mines
at Port Arthur, Vladivostock and
elsewhere in those seas. The APP
paratus leaves Odessa early in May.

Rumor of Death sot connrmed.

Washington, April 15.-The state
department has heard nothing to
confirm the rumor of the death OF
United States Consul McCook, at
Dawson City. On the contrary, the
last advice received by the depart
ment, while showing that the consul
had been very i'll from an attack of
pneumonia, stated that the chances
were favorable for his recovery.
This message came to the state de-
partment directly from the doctor in
charge of the hospital at Dawson
City, where Consul McCook was w.
ing, and it was dated the lst of April.
The officials doubt whether any later
advices have come out of Dawson at
this season of the wear.
