BUY CANADIAN PACIFIC
MAGNATEs SAID

If They Can Obtain a Voice in the

Able to Dictate to

Special to The Globe.

Special to The Globe.
NEW YORK, Nov. 1S.-Continued buy
ing of Canadian Pacific shares for Mon
treal account caused speculative atten-
ton to be given to the 500 line shares.
The 500 line is practically owned by the
Canadian Pacific company, and the Wall
street rumor is that James j. Hill AM
other Northwestern railroad magnates
are striving to obtain voice in the
Canadian Pacific management, in order to
curb the 500 line as rate-disturbing
factor.
1t is well understood that the American
interest in Canadians Pacific has been
largely Increased since the last annual
meeting, wnen $4,000 shares were voted by
it's New York holders. Since then over
a quarter million shares have been ac-
quired by the New York interests.
The activity in Canadian Pacific stock
trading today was credited to en interest
in the road being taken, so it was re-
ported, by DR.. Seward Webb, one of the
Vanderbilt family, whose large invest
ments in railroads in Eastern Canada,
Vermont and northern New York have
made 1t desirable for him and his friends
to have stockholding interest in Cana
dian Pacific.

BRICANDS ARE STUBBORN
DICKINsON'S INABILITY TO ACT

SOFIA. Nov. 1S.-Another- letter has

Her health has been somewhat affected
by her continual confinement and hard
confident of ultimate release.
A letter to Mr.. Dickinson, diplomatic
agent of the United States at Sofia, re-
plying to his proposals concerning ran
som, says the brigands will hold out for
a figure very much above the sum at
Mr.. Dickinsons s command.
The brigands interpret Mr. Dickinson S
not having fixed on the sum he Is willing
to pay and on time limit as being in
dications that he can get more money.
They also demand immunity from pros
ecution. But it is impossible for the
diplomatic agent of the United States
here to bind the governments of Bulgaria
and Turkey. This point. however, is not
likely to be serious obstacle in the way
Of negotiations.

SECRETARY HAY AND LORD
PAUNCEFOTE ATTACH THEIR
SIGNATURES
PROVISIONS OF INSTRUMENT
United States Seems to Have Secured
About Everything Contended
for by Those Who Opposed
Former Treaty.
BACKS UP MONROE DOCTRINE

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1S.-The new
Hay-Pauncefote treaty was signed n
day at 1906 by Secretary Hay, for S.Ie
United States, and Lord Pauncefote, the
British ambassador, for Great Britain.
Lord Pauncefote had been indisposed for
several days past, and it was not eX-
pected that the treaty could be signed
before the end of the current week. How
ever, to the surprise Of the state depart
ment officials, the ambassador appeared
at the department about noon, and the
work of signing the treaty was soon dis
patched This treaty is intended to re-
place the first Hay-Pauncefote treaty.
That convention was amended so eX-
tensively by the United States senate at
its last session that the British govern
ment declined to ratify it.
The principal point of difference be-
tween the new and failed treaty. is the
withdrawal of Great Britain from the
joint guarantee of the neutrality of the
canal, thus leaving the United States the
sole guarantor. Tie excision of the old
provision respecting the right to fortify
the canal leaves that right by inference
optional with the United States. All COM
merce of whatever nationality passing
through the canal will fare alike; there
will be no discrimination in rates in
favor of United States shipping. other
wise the new treaty Is IN scope similar
to last years treaty.
May Now Proceed to Build.
1t replaces technically the Clayton
Bulwer treaty, concluded on April 49,.
1850. BY the terms of that old convention
the United States and Great Britain
agreed that neither should seek any ad-
vantage in rights Of transit across the
Isthmus. BY the new convention Gre ii
Britain yields her right in favor of the
United States, which is thus at liberty
to construct g canal.
Nothing more remains to be done, as
far as this treaty is concerned, before
the senate meets, or indeed until the
treaty shall have been ratified, rejected
or amended. If it should be ratified, the
state department will proceed immedi-
ately to negotiate the treaties with Costa
Rica and Nicaragua, for which it al
ready has arranged in protocols pending
before the senate which will permit the
canal to be constructed, and prescribe
the terms upon which the consent of
Nicaragua and Costa Rica is given.
1t, is agreed that the canal may be
