Ord-Hrenker.

tn last legislature passed law imposing a
maximum penalty of ten years imprson-
ment or a fine not exceeding $1,000 for neg
ltgence or carelessness which should result
in the shooting of a human being by hunt
ers, the record of such fatalities In this
state during the present season is very
heavy. A peculiar feature of the situation
is that in several of the accidents the shots
have been fired by unknown persons The
record up to the present time shows that
twelve psrsons have been shot by accident,
and that five of the victims have been
either killed outright or wounded so that
death resulted. In four instances the shots
were fired by unknown persons.
The persons who have lost their lives are:
Henry McPheeters, Milford. Me.
w. c. Tuckey, Dayton. Ohio.
Leslie Bowker, Marshfield, Me.
Frank Leonard, Frankfort Me-
John G. Weeks, Boston, Mass
Thus far no steps have been taken so far
as can be learned. toward prosecution in
any case. although the game wardens fire.
quently have called public attention to the
law.

The New Treaty With This Country
Regarding Canal,
WESTMINSTER GAZEFfE'S VIEWS
Pointed Out That Gains Have
Been Made Elsewhere.
CONFIDENCE IN AMERICA

LONDON, November 1S.-The Westmin-
ster Gazette this afternoon publishes an
article contending that. even from a Brit
ish viewpoint, il is desirable that the
United States should build exclusively and
guarantee the neutrality of the isthmian
canal, and that if Lord Lansdowne obtained
full commercial privileges in the canal for
Great Britain the treaty will not be wholly
one-sided. The article concludes with ad-
yising the public to expect to be prepared
to accept a settlement which will sub
stantialIy give all want, but which
outwardly will not appear to be triumph
of diplomacy. BY the laundering of Ameri-
can statesmen we were put in an embar-
RAISING position last year, and will
show some magnanimity if for the sake
of peace and good will, we approach the
new settlement without a recollection of
that event. Let us remember that we have
had some success in recent dealings with
America. The Bering sea award and Vene-
zuela treaty were both substantially in our
favor, and If we get open water in the canal
we shall be the gamers by the loss of the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty"
Pail Mall Gazette's View.
The Pail Mail Gazette takes a similar
view of the matter and says: We are sur
rendering right we would never seriously
think of exercising, but which might be in
fringed at any moment to the serious detri-
ment of British dignity. On the other
hand. it is understood that compensation
will be found in the absence Of heavy toll
or tariff restrictions. The canal is ex-
pected to be thrown open to the world and
the opening of that door VIII be the price
the British government obtained for the
abandonment of the Clayton-Bu Bu.wer
treaty.
The st. James Gazette says: we have
confidence that the American people will
recognize in the abandonment of the Clay
1on-Bulwer treaty further sign of the
value we set on their good will and the
earnestness of our desire to help forward
their aspirations after greatness. Hearty
relations between mother and daughter
are more to US than academic treaty
rights.
