THE CANAL SHOULD
 BE CONSTRUCTED
Spectator Says EngIand's Inter- est is to Allow Building
 Under Any Conditions

London, May 10.-The Spectator, in an article to be published on the Nicaragua canal, trusts that the government will handle the problem with more shrewdness and common sense than formerly display ed, and argues that Great Britain holds all the cards in the diplomatic game and can easily permit the Senate to abrogate the Clayton-Bulwer treaty and give it. self away so completely that the United States will be put utterly in the wrong and Great Britain gain a diplomatic vic- tory at every point. But it will be much better to avert that temptation and ap- proach the subject as though the Clayton Bulwer treaty was non existant.
 It is to Great Britain's interest to ig- nore the Senate's i'll manners and allow the United States to construct the canal under any financial and political condi- tions she chooses, provided the canal be always open to British shipping on the same terms as American shipping. The Spectator will contend that the only al- ternatives are either that Great Britain prevent the canal from being built or that the Americans tear up the treaty and compel Great Britain to suffer humiliation or fight, and the Spectator does not be- lieve for a minute that the British people would sanction a war on the question of the abrogation of the treaty.

CLOTHING NEEDED
 IN JACKSONVILLE
Provision Made to Shut Off the Lazy Negroes Who Re-
 fuse to Work

Jacksonville, Fla, May 10.-Everything in the city was quiet today and the work of the various departments is progressing smoothly. The greatest want in the city is clothing. Many people are wearing to- day the same underwear which they had on the day of the fire and have not the money to buy new clothes with. Another problem which will be quickly settled is that of the lazy negroes who, since the commissaries were established, have quit work. so many having done so, that the Clyde steamers and the yards of the na- val stores and commission companies have been unable to get enough men to do their work. Chairman Parrott has in- augurated a system of tickets for the sub- commissary stations which will prevent duplicating and enable him to identify every family applying for rations. Many negroes are hiding behind the skirts of their wives, whom they are sending for provisions, and who claim either to be widows or else to have been left alone by their husbands.

 ON LITTLE CAUSE Rev. William Ament of Connec- ticut Defends the Mission
 aries in China

New Haven, Conn. May 10-Rev. Will liam s. Au.ent of Pekin, China, In an ad- dress before the congregation of Dwight Place Church, which supported him on the situation of China, said in part:
 "I believe that the reported atrocities by the allies are exaggerated. Chinese women are apt to commit suicide on triv- ial pretexts. A family quarrel may make a woman hang herself, or difficulty with her mother -in-law may make her jump into a well. You have many explanations for the outbreak in China. You think that it was begun by Buddhist priests who practice mesmerism. He organized societies. Incantations were, practiced- Charms were worn and all sorts of pre- ventatives against death and harm. The Christians were attacked because they offered the least resistance
 "As to the indemnity; When we mis- sionaries were ordered to vacate the Brit ish legation we went with 2oo0 native Christians to the premises of Chinese prince. The prince had fed We sold the movable property after consultation with the foreign ministers. When 1t came to the question of collecting indemnities' u Hung Chang sent representative to confer with us. We agreed that the vil- lages were to be assessed indemnity for the outrages to provide for the homeless and the destitute widows and children. u Hung Chang's representative suggested that an amount equal to one-third of the whole sum should be added and distri- buted generally to such persons. That Is the explanation of the extra one-third referred to in regard to the indemnity '

New York, May 10--Wall street emerged from its gloom this morning and with growing confidence In the day manifested something like buoyant elation. Prices of stock went up with rush at the last, closing at about the top and with the net losses left after yesterdays session pretty largely recovered. There were some clouds remaining on the situation this morning, and some natural trepidation lest the violent collapse of yesterday should have left some casualties which would not be disclosed until the clearing house sheets of the Stock Exchange had been made up. Early in the day the of ficial announcement was made that the sheets of all the members of the ex- change had been cleared perfectly and that all their checks had been honor1d. This relieved the last feeling of apprehen- sion and the feverish and earnest signs which were manifest in the stock market during the first hour disappeared. Things quieted down into steady condition of business such as has not been witnessed in Wall street for many weeks.
 Left No Fear.
 
 The measures taken over night to clear the situation left little to fear. The agree. ment to allow the shorts in Northern Pa ciflc to settle at 150 really went to the root of the crisis and wiped out the inn polling cause of yesterdays panic. Tho announcement by the banks that yester- days loans which had been provided by agreement among the leading institutions of the street would not be called today kept the situation free from additional tension.
 With the threatening conditions re- moved, a rebound in prices was natural and in evidence. The extent to which 1t ran was, however, surprise and was attributed to various causes. There is no doubt that among those who were heavy losers in yesterdays slump, were many of ample resources. who viewed the sit uation with sporting instinct, and a determina ton to recoup losses by follow ing the market. It was the popular belief

WALL STREET HAS RECOVERED FROM THE PANIC OF THURSDAY
 WITHOUT ANY FAILURES OF NOTE
Shorts Were Allowed Settle Northern Pacific 50 and Thus Serious Crisis Was Aveed-Banks Were Strong and Did Not Call in
 Loans Yeserday--Market Had BulIsh Tendency

that some of the western potentiates who ways during a portion of yesterdays events, were again in the market this afternoon in a bold attempt to retrieve their losses. The obvious leadership movement of she Union and the South Western group gave ground for the con lecture that it was besed on benefits ex- pected to accrue to Union Pacific from a control of Northern Pacific; a control which was still stout,y claimed today, but as emphatically deHied by the Hill-Mor- gan parties
 No Stocks Brought In Sight.
 It was remarkable that the pulling of the corner in Northern Pacific by the almost no stock upon the market But 1t is evident that the contesting parties in Northern Pacific are not yet prepared to let go of single available share of the stock The settlement with the shorts progressed today atethe offices. both Kuhn, Loeb and Company and J. P Nor gan and Company. and 1t is probable that only the completion of the settlement will reveal how much of the purchasers of stock made by the two parties within the last week can be delivered.
 The bargain hunters were also on hand in Wall street today although their oper- ations fell away as the recovery in prices progressed During the morning, how ever, there were large number of trans actions recorded for cash both in stock and bonds, which Is a matter in which the bargain hunter usually pays for his purchases. There sis belief in the street that yester say's panic was made unnecessarily violent by the excitement of some of the newer members of the Stock Exchange. many of whom are very young men. Tomorrow's impending holiday, it was felt, insured a period for calm reflection which must tend to clear the situation still further. There were also some manipulation of prices for the benefit of those whose borrowing power had been largely impaired by the shrink age in collateral values. Some of this manipulation was also with view to the benefit of the London market where there is a periodical settlement on Monday

HENRY JOHNSON LYNcHED. He Fired at White Man, But Missed
 Him,

Valdosta, Ga, May 10.-News Is just received here of the lynching of Henry Johnson. alias Cater, near Moniac, be- tween here and Jacksonville, last night
 Tuesday Johnson fired at young white man named Foraker. The load of bar rel rivets barely grazed him.
 The negro was captured at Crawford Fla, and brought back to Moniac. He confessed the shooting and said that he intended to kill Foraker.
 He was held there for officers to come after. him and last night mob gathered and carried him to the swamp, wher, he was tied to log and shot.
 The lynching occurred just over tn, Florida line Te negro is said to hay, been holy terror. It is thought that ht intended to assasinate Foraker and ther rob the commissary where Foraker wa. clerking.

 Some Notable Advances.
 Some of the more notable of today's advances were: Union Pacific. p; St. Paul and Lackawanna, TIE; Consolidated Gas, 16; Burlington and Amalgamated Copper, 1219 International Power, 1112; Baltimore and Ohio Il; St. Louis South western, preferred, 10A. and Sugar, Del aware and Hudson, and General Electric, 10.
 This represents a rapid rate of recov- cry from the extreme low prices Thurs day, which had already been largely re- covered In the violent rebound of the late trading on the exchange There was an obvious disposition to hail this as a. re- vival of the boom on the part of some of the more sanguine of the speculative bull element But after the weeks expe- rience of the severe penalits of over speculation. a renewal of the same was strongly deprecated. That the wounds caused by such a collapse as that of Thursday are not to be healed in a day. is patent. The condition of the banks after yesterdays emergency measures must be gauged before adequate Judgment can be passed upon the outlook.
 Not Failure Recorded.
 It is a remarkable fact that the un- precedented violence of Thursdays upset should have resulted in not a single fail ure on the Stock Exchange.
 The commission houses generally were averse to accepting much new business today. About one-third of the commits sion houses would only take buying or ders from customers who could pay for them in full and others required such excessive, margins as to restrict trading greatly. The heaviest buyers came from the syndicates that have been active in arranging deals for the absorption of other properties. These interests seemed to regard the developments yesterday as the most favorable thing that could have happened for the carrying out of their plans and accumulations of stocks by them was resumed in a large scale during the day. This buying was so large that the supply of stocks was continually ex- hausted, and many orders at fairly high limits could not be filled.

GOVERNMENT LOSES.
Its Operation of Telegraph Services
 Is Expensive.

London, May 10.-Henniker Heaton Conservative in the House of Commons today drew attention to the annual loss of f70O.O0O in the telegraph service, aggre- gating fS,3o0.000 since the government took over the lines and asked how the government proposed to remedy this.
 Sir Michael Hicks-Beach Chancellor oI the Exchequer. admitted the correctness of the figures. The reason for the loss was that the public was more eager for rapid communication than the revenue awarded. Extensive improvements must be discontinued.
 MT. Heaton also asked if the government was prepared to lease the government lines to a private company. The Chancel- Tor of the Exchequer did not reply.

 THE FORBIDDEN CITY,"
Has Not Been Evacuated by the
 Americans.

Pekin, May 1o-The Americans have evacuated the districts under their con- trol of the exception of the Forbidden City" which they will occupy until or ders to the contrary are received from Washington, as 1t would be impossible to turn over the American districts to the Chinese, who certainly would not be all lowed to keep them Independently
 General Chaffee, in order to prevent chaos, notified Count von Waldersee a week ago that he would evacuate today those portions adjoining the British as- signed to them and the remainder to the Germans.
 The departure of the troops for Manila has been delayed ten days owing to the transport Indiana being quarantined a; Nagasah because of case of smallpox on board. The American soldiers here have been vaccinated.
