GOVERNOR AND SENATOR.
Platt and odell Not Harmonious Over
Legislation.

New York, March Ex-senator Thomas
c. Platt has given out the following
statement concerning police legislation:
Some newspapers are trying to make
a quarrel between Governor Odell and
myself. They will not stand. While I
have decided views about police legis-
lation, the governor is an honest and
capable man, whose only desire is to do
what he believes to be best and no diff
ference of opinion about any question:
of policy can disturb the relations which
have existed between us for years., 4
understand that the governor does not
desire to propose additional police legis-.
lation for the city Of New York during
the present session Of the legislature
because the promotion by him of any
new legislation at this session would
place him In a more or less antagonistic
position to the views expressed by him
in his first message to the legislature
and because if the citizens of New York
city do not like police legislation their
best remedy is to be found not In an
appeal to the legislature. but at the polls.
The governor considers these objections
to additional police legislation at thi.
session Of the legislature sound. do

tween us. In the near future there Will

TAKE LESS THAN COST OF WAR
And End the Trouble, With Proper
Safeguards for the Future
Pay All Alike.

Washington, March 22.--Although the
situation at Tientsin was never regard
ed here as really dangerous, the officials
felt that a prolongation of the hostile
attitude of the British and Russian
forces might lead to trouble in the end,
so that the news of the arrangement by
which both powers are allowed to re-
cede from their position without loss Of
honor. was we'll received here. With
this exciting issue Withdrawn, the Chi
nese trouble has assumed less menace
ing aspect, and 1T is reported that the
ministers have been able. leaving in
allegiance the troublesome subject of in
IDENTITIES, to make some headway to-
ward the disposition of the points re-
naming to be adjusted under the arti-
cles subscribed to by China and the
powers as the basis for the joint meet
ing at Pekin.
Further inquiry into the indemnity
question makes it appear that the sum
OF $2OO,D00.0 900, which officials consider the
maximum that should be levied upon
the Chinese as a tax, represents abso-
lutely the limits of Chinese ability, ac-
cording to the calculations of the off,
cials best informed as to the resources
OF China. The figure named does not
represent the aggregate of the indem-
mites claimed. On the contrary, it is
understood that these are very much
larger. The United States fixed upon
the sum of $4,000, 900 as a suitable in
demnity to be claimed, Notwithstanding
that officials of the various departments
are satisfied that this sum will only
provide for the payment of certain

MAY FAVOR THE
PANAMA ROUTE
iSTHMIAN COMMISSION WILL
SOON REPORT.
LOOK OVER BOTH PROSPECTS
CONGRESS WILL HAVE TO CHOOSE
BETWEEN THE TWO, NEXT
YEAR.

New York, March pa special to the
Times from Washington says:
Rear Admiral Walker, retired, chair
man of the Isthmian Canal commission,
in an interview Is quoted as saying that
the report that the commission in MAX
ing its full report may present the
points in favor of the Panama route, !"
is quite within the limits Of reason and
possibility.
"The commission" he said, "was
named to ascertain the facts concerning
all proposed routes across the isthmus
and to do so in detail. In the prelim-
mary report made to congress, the ad-
vantages of the Nicaragua route, as
then known to the commission, were
pointed out. although our information
about the Nicaragua and Panama
routes was not complete. The facts OBJ
tained were presented, and 1t was ex-
pected that the commission would have
the privilege of supplementing Its re-
port by the use of further informa-
tion.
I'VE have still some six hundred or
seven hundred men at work on the Mic
aragua route, which will be most care
fully bored from six fathoms below
water on the Atlantic to six fathoms
there is to be a lock. The last reports
are about coming in, and on their ar
rival a return will be made.
ION the Panama route we have made
careful examinations, but we have in
part utilized the work Of the French
engineers, found to be very full and
very accurate. We have proved it and
adopted the verified French data
I'VE hope to be able to complete our
full report by June, and to submit ii
to the state department at once. am
sorry that provision was not made for
presenting it at once, as I fear that
holding 1t back for submission to con-
gress until next December, with the
inevitable delays incident to the issue
of work filled with plans and maps
and charts, will prevent the reading of
the report for possibly two years. This
commission has nothing to do with
choosing route. That is for congress
to decide after it has ascertained all
the facts and had decided which route
will be most convenient economical and
safe for the United States.
