( New British Treaty.

According 10 White House and State
Department gossip. the President intends
shortly to reopen negotiations with Great
Britain looking to the abrogation Of the
Clavton-Bulwer Convention Of 1850. Why
he should take this trouble is not easy to
understand. especially since the whole
point in his Administrations policy to re-
yiye that dead and buried agreement was
to re-enforce the British Government in its
opposition 10 the Nicaragua Canal
In official circles it is said that the first
step may be to address a note TO the Brit
ism Foreign Office. setting forth our rea-
sons for considering the Clayton-Bulwer
Convention null and void and asking for
its formal annullment. But ii is admitted
that were Mr.. Mckinley to do this he
would be certain Of a declination except
upon terms which the United States could
not grant. Great Britain wants Pyramid
Harbor and anything else in Alaska. in
addition TO the Porcupine district which
she has already. that this country can be
cajoled or browbeaten into conceding.
Friends of the Administration declare
that the President is firmly determined
not to surrender another foot of American
soil TO the British Crown. and perhaps he
may have some such feeling. But IT is
impossible TO forget that the influences
which induced him TO consent 10 the Hay
Tower modus vivendi might work him sue
cessfuIly again. In any event, he is pre-
pairing 10 reopen the treaty question with
greater prudence than his Secretary Of
State displayed in negotiating the Hay
Pauncefote failure without allowing the
fact TO reach the ears Of any member Of
the Foreign Relations Committee of either
House Of Congress. Mr.. Mckinley is act
ing very differently He is sounding the
Senatorial opponents of the late and un-
lamented -Pauncefote Treaty TO see
If he can find a way to formulate some
sort of convention which both the Senate
and Downing Street would be willing to
accept. This plan IS undoubtedly an i'm
provement on that Of Mr.. Hay, and the
only objection we have to il Is that it is
time wasted 10 revive debate over thing
as dead and turned TO dust as the Clay
ton-Bulwer Convention. The manly
American course to pursue would be to
acknowledge Great Britain's rejection Of
the Hay-Pauucefote Treaty sans phrase, %
and then 10 ignore the matter entirely un-
til next December. when he might prop
erly. in his next annual message. recon-
mend Congress 10 pass an act formally
denouncing and abrogating the crime Of

MORE PRESSURE ON TURKEY.
hinistcr Leisbmnn to Renew De-
mnndS for Indemnity.

Instructions have been sent TO John C.
A Leishman. the new American Minister
at Constantinople. to renew the pressure
on the Sultan and his Ministers TO pay
the indemnity claimed by the United
states on account of the destruction of
hmerican mission property in Armenia.
Mr.. Leishman will be the fourth Ameri-
can Minister at the Court of the Sultan
to insist that the indemnity he paid. The
first was Mr.. Terrll. under President
Cleveland and the others Mr. Angel of
Michigan, and Mr. Straus of New York,
under the Mckinley Administration. Mr..
Straus obtained from the Sultan a prom
Use that the indemnity, amounting to be-
tween $4,000 and 100000, would be forth

Mr.. Griscom the present Secretary of the
United States Legation in Constantinople
Mr. Griscom made it a practice for sew
eraI months of calling at the Sublime
Porte every Saturday and asking when
the money would be paid. but he got no
definite information Then came the vis-
on her way to Manila and the alarm Of
the Turkish authorities. who made haste
to announce that the indemnity would be
included in the payment to the Cramps
of Philadelphia for cruiser for the
Turkish navy. But the demands of the
United States were not satisfied in that
or any other way and the State Depart
ment asked Mr. Leishman to try his hand
with the Sultan.
The armored cruiser New York, which
left Hampton Roads for Manila, may stop
at Smyrna, although no orders to that
effect have been sent to Rear Admiral
Rodgers, whose pennant flies from the
New York Just before the New York
sailed instructions were sent TO Admiral
Rodgers to stop at Tangiers. Morocco.
take on board Mr.. Gummere, the United
him to the nearest port to Fee,
the residence of the Sultan of the
Moors. Mr. Gummere is going to
see the Sultan about some American
pay and the New York will back up any
demands that Mr.. Gummere may make
if the Sultan shows disinclination to
comply. This method of obtaining JUS
tice from Morocco for American citizens
| has been found effective in the past and
it is not doubted by officials here that it
will not fail in the present instance.

OUTLOOK FORA NEW TREATY
The Prospect of Another Conventi""
With EnEInnd Very slim.

The President ana Secretary HAY nave
had conversations with members OF the
Senate Committee on Foreign Relations
and other Senator's in regard 10 the
chances of arranging an inter-ocea'i'
canal treaty that viii be satisfactory 10
both the Senate and the British Govern
ment. Most of these Senators have eN-
pressed the opinion that there IS no hEe-
Iihood Of arranging such a convention bu'
some believe that the outlook is more
hopeful
Some of the more conservative Se ma
tors deprecate the disposition to place
them in the attitude of demanding the
abrogation of the Clayton Bulwer Treaty
before the contents of the British note
are even made public. In this connection
Senator Platt Of Connecticut had this to
say:
The reply of Great Britain to the note
transmitting to the Foreign ONCE the
Senate's amendments to the Hay-Paunce-
fote Treaty has not yet been pubilshed'
but from the semi official reports, which
have been given out, it is not supposed TO
close the door to future negotiations ana
in my judgment it is exceedingly lmpolite
to announce at the present time that CON
gress will proceed to the abrogaton OF
the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty. If that re
suit can be reached by diplomatic nego-
tiations it is much more desirable.
DR. Silva. the new Minister from Co
lombia, discussed with Secretary Hay yes
terday the propositions which the Minis
ter has brought from his Government rel
ative to the acquisition by the United
States of the territory occupied by the
Panama Canal A special conference be-
tween the President and DR.. Silva has
also been arranged.
Shortly after his arrival in this city Dr
Silva authorized the statement that his
country was ready to give the United
States practically full control of the ter
ritory occupied by the Panama Canal

citizen who was one Of its greatest
lawyers. most conscientious and faithful
public servants, and "a true patriot In
contradjstinction to other recent Presi-
dents AIR Harrisons Administration was
singularly free from scandal or the sus-
picion of political or other corruption.
Yet it was rot without mistakes the
most serious of which was his attempt
to impose negro rule upon the Southern
states through the measure known as
the Lodge Force bill. which was finally
defeated with great difficulty in the
Senate
While much of a critical nature could
be said regarding Mr.. Harrison's political
policy and course at times, his integrity
of purpose has never been impugned,
even by his enemies. He always has been

able convictions. and while his views
have sometimes appeared TO he narrow or

We are sorry to say that at the end of
his career he was most cordially hated by
many Of the party associates with whom
ne once was on terms of intimacy and
personal friendship during his Congress
sionsl and Presidential experiences. But
he committed what the Hanna element
among Republicans look upon as the un-
pardonable sin. He characterized their
violation of the Constitution as "a de-
parture from right principles" and has
been under the ban Of the Administra-
tion ever since. Even while he lay upon
his deathbed and within few hours Of
his demise. old Republican colleagues in
