SETTLE HNAL TREATY
A Base Of Agreement With Great
Britain Said to Have
Been Reached.
Hay Decides to Remain In Cab.

is Signed.
~ q. !,
iClayton.Bulwer Treaty Believed
to Be Entirely Eliminated In
New Treaty.

Washington, Sept. 20.-President
Roosevelts administration will start
out with settlement of the Nicaragua
canal question If present indications
can be relied upon. Positive informa-
ton has been received to the effect
that the decision of Secretary Hay to
remain in the cabinet was reached be-
cause of the fact that complete basis
outline of treaty already agreed upon
between the United States and Great
Britain.
Secretary Hay was bitterly disap-
pointed last winter when the senate
finally decided to reject the treaty
which bore his name. He was not at
all satisfied with the amendments made
because he knew in advance that the
treaty would be rejected by Great Bri-
tain in that form. He would have re-
signed at once had 1t not been for the
personal influence of President McKin-
ley.
Secretary Hay went to work anew.
and began by ascertaining the opinions
of members of the senate. He then
drafted treaty which he believed
would meet the views OF the majority
of the senate. The British government
has now agreed to this draft, and unless
there Is some unexpected hitch in the
negotiations, the treaty will be submit
ted to the senate in December, and 1t Is
expected to- be the first diplomatic iris
umph of the Roosevelt administration.
The British representatives insisted at
first on lacking on to the treaty several
other subjects in dispute, including the
Alaskan boundary matter. Prominent
senators, who were consulted, advised
the secretary of state that this would
not meet the approval Of the senate,
and the agreement which has now been
reached concerns the Nicaragua canal
alone.
Secretary Hay, 1t is said, has con-,
sented to remain in the cabinet mainly,
IL not entirely, for the purpose OF con-
Guiding the canal negotiations. He has
had a natural ambition to have his
name affixed to such treaty, and now
that an agreement with Great Britain
is clearly Indicated. Secretary Hay pro-
poses to remain in office at least until
the treaty isratified by, the senate. BY
that time the grief he has felt at the
sudden loss of his son will have been in
a measure softened SO that he will prob
ably consent to remain in office. even
after the canal question is settled.

Associated Press Resolutions.

| New York, Sept 20.-At the annual
meeting of the members of the Associ-
ated Press which was convened in this
city under the bylaws, the following
resolutions were unanimously adopted
by rising vote:
Whereas, The late president Of the
United States, William Mckinley be-
loved and honored by the people of the
whole country. has been murdered by
the ruthless hand of an anarchist assas-
sin, and
Whereas His noble qualities and his
conspicuous example as brave, gener-
ous, sympathetic and lovable man-his
virtues as citizen and officer of the
republic, his deeds as patriot who in
spired love and sympathy between the
sections and the people of our common
country. had endeared him to the whole
union: therefore, be 1t

First, that in common with the whole

be properly done to give expression to
the country's appreciation of her la

unspeakable sorrow with which 1t views

Third, that we call upon the states
and the nation to take prompt and em-
phatic legislative steps to deal ade-
Iquately with the advocates of the dam
nable doctrine which teaches that law
and order must be overthrown, and
which. the world over, openly adopts
assassination as the instrument of its
operation. The anarchist has no place

In the same manner as any other plague

Fourth, that we felicltate the coun-
try in having met so firmly the trying

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 20.-Memorial
services for the dead president We're

which over 5000 people crowded. while
nearly as many more clamored for adj
mission. Overflow meetings We're held
at two nearby churches, and practical
lily the whole of the afternoon was oc-
cupied in the exercises. There was al
most an entire cessation of business

The auditorium service consisted OF
music. prayer and eulogies. Governor

was followed in turn by Rev. Fletcher

Tor L. Benjamin Andrews, Congressman

Mr.. Bryan said in part:
AS monuments, reared by grateful
hands to the memory OF heroes testify
to the virtues Of the living az we'll as
to the services of the dead, SO the sor-
row that has overwhelmed our nation,
obliterating the distinctions of party.
race and religion, is as complimentary
to the patriotism Of our people as to
our departed chief magistrate. But 1t
is not strange that the people bow as
one man over the bier Of their illus
trious fellow citizen-not strange that
the solemn stiffness is broken only by
the chanting of the sacred hymns
which he was won't to sing-not strange
that all hearts turn in sympathy to the

men, and the circumstances which at

to rehabilitation that even one
murderous heart could be found In all
the land and grief that the wicked pur-
pose of that heart should have been
contaminated against one so gentle in
spirit and SO kind in word and deed.
This is neither the time nor the place
of remedies for anarcnism. 1t can have
no defender in the United States. Gov
eminent is a necessity and the delusion
that society can exist without 1t is
even when no violence IL adj
vocated, for 1t is the duty OF every citi-
zen OF this republic to strive to make
his government perfect in every detail,
and this purpose is not only weakened,
but entirely destroyed by the doctrine
that all governments are bad and
should be overthrown.
Mr. Bryan said none appreciated
more than himself the private charac-l
ter and public virtue of William Nc
Kinley. He, referred feelingly to the
death-bed scenes at Buffalo and the
Christian fortitude displayed. His
blameless life. aproachable manner and
generous conduct were pictures.
Mr.. Bryan concluded as follows:
ut is unfortunate that In the heat of
political controversy partisanslip some
times becomes so strong as to cause in
justice to be done to the motives of po-
litical opponents and 1t should be our
constant aim to place our campaigns

MURDER AND THEFT.

CriminOlogiStS say that the greatest
terror that affiicts that fraction Of
humanity suffering from an uneasy

by any means, nor awe of any other
acknowledged enemy of law-defers.
What the criminal breads is sleep.

under its influence.
An untold number of crimes have
been confessed by their perpetrators
during sleep. Is it any wonder, asks
the New York World, that those con-
scious of irregularities of conduct
prefer to remain awake?
1t was not long ago that a we'll
known New York detective happened
to be travelling in a sleeping car. The
detective, who chanced TO be occupy

sleeper above him burst forth into a
lOng-winded confession regarding sew
eral daring jewel robberies wherein
he had taken part. Much impre
the official kept an eye on him. Fur
ther inquiries proved that the confes-
sion had been an exact record of what
had taken place.
Perhaps the entire history of crime
contains no more dramatic episode
than that which occurred some years
ago in PruSsian township. The hus

woman had vanished in a mysterious

The young man stopped, stopped

carrying her, he walked up to the

Greatly blushing the elder sister

Now comes the sequel. On the sec
