DISCUSS CANAL TREATY.
Members Of English. Parliament Feel

New York, March ia number Of
members of parliament expressed their
opinion on the treaty situation to the
London correspondent of the Journal
and Advertiser after the rejection Of the
Hay-Pauncefote treaty had been brought
to the attention OF the house ofcommons.
John Burns, expressing the industrial
view, said:
whatever is the difference between
the two countries whether upon FORTH
cation or anything else, it IS not worth
a days estrangement."
Mr.. Langley. member for Sheffield, said !:
No one is able to fOresea the trouble
over this treaty business, although
America wants to snuff out Sheffield
with its iron and Northamptonshire with
its boots. Our Yankee frferds have al
ways talked big; it is their nature No
doubt the canal is the right thing, but
Just imagine a chancellor Of the ex-
chequer in those depressed times of ours
asking parliament to guarantee ar adj
vance upon an undertaking Of such
doubtful revenue. for, after all, the Mica
ragua canal is not the Suez canal and
