WILLIAM NJ. HAHN'S CASE.
Attorneys of Both Sides in Consulta
ton With Gov. Nash.

COLUMBUS. Ohio, June 2S-The after
neys in the William NJ. Hahn case, who
were called to the governors Office by tele-
graph last night. did not reach Columbus
Saturday morning, on account OF washouts
and the general delay of trains. Gov.
Nash stated there would be no rehearing
of the Hahn case and. as far as he knew.
no new matter would be presented for con-
sideration. He simply called in the counsel
on both sides of the case for consultation.
The object seems to be to bring about a
COMPROMISE that the case might be settled
satisfactorily on both sides without a long
legal fight.

ton enacted would enable the President to
act in the premises. However, he {Mr.
Spooner) was not prepared to assent to the
Senate's assuming that the American cred
itors bf the Panama Canal Company could
attack the decree of the French court in
this country, so that ground might be made
for an indefinite obstruction of the Will OF
Congress in regard to an isthmian canal.
Mr.. Mitchell <Ore.e said he could not see
his way clear to support the pending reso-
luton, because 1t would be regarded by the
people as a means of delaying the canal.
He had been in favor Of the construction
of the canal by the Nicaragua route, and
he felt that Congress had made a mistake
in considering the Panama route; but he
was SO much in favor of an isthmian canal,
and had 50 much confidence in the wisdom
of the President, to whom the subject had
been referred. that he could not bring him
self to support the resolution.
Insinuation Resented by Hanna.
Mr.. Hanna opposed the resolution. saying
that the people had accepted the verdict of
Congress upon the canal and were satisfied.
He resented the insinuation that lobby
was here to advocate the Panama route
and to induce congressman to vote against
their convictions and inclinations.
He protested against such an insinua
ton and declared that he never had known
of such lobby, and he challenged Mr..
Morgan to produce proof of his charge.
the proposed resolution. He said, in adj
dition to the cloud which Mr.. Morgan all
ready had threwn upon the title to the
Panama Canal Company's property, the
endeavor now was made to lay upon the
Congress the charge of calumny and corr
ruption. There was no truth in the in
situation, and Mr.. Morgan must have
known there was none. He was unal
terably opposed to the resolution.
Mr.. Morgan disclaimed any effort to re-
fleet on the Senate or on Congress as a
whole He insisted there had been a lobby
here in support Of the Panama route, but
he had not charged that the lobby had cor
rupted Congress. He believed the carry
ing out of his resolution would clear the
atmosphere Of all floating charges.
Resolution Goes to the Calendar.
The resolution went to the calendar with
out action.
Mr.. Aldrich called up a bill relating to to-
bacco passed by the Senate and moved to
agree to an amendment of the House pro-
viding that no packages of manufacture
Tobacco, snuff cigars and cigarettes shall
have attached to them any representation
or promise of a ticket or chance in any
lottery or any immoral picture.
The amendment was agreed to, thus pass
ing the bill.
Consideration then was begun of bill
to ratify an agreement submitted by the
Kansas or kaw Indians of Oklahoma.

Rathbone Wants Investigation

Mr.. Teller (CoI) presented petiticn from
Estes G. Rathbone, praying for a full in
vestigation into his performance of duties
as director Of posts of Cuba during the oc-
cupation of Cuba. He maintained in his ne
tition that he was unjustly tried and I'M
fairly convicted and that he IS entitled to
fun. fair and impartial investigation by
Congress.
Mr.. Teller said the petition was unusual
and the conditions were unusual and at his
request the petition was read in full The
petitioner asked that full justice be done,
10 the end that aspersions upon his charac-
ter might be eliminated
Mr. Teller said the petitioner was not now

a general amnesty been granted by the
Cuban government; he stood before the
world as convicted criminal The case
was unique, but 1t was one which might
arise at any time in the Philippines 1t

investigation by the Senate. While he did
not pass on the guilt or innocence of the

Claims Against Canal Company.
A resolution offered yesterday by Mr..
Morgan providing for an Investigation nv
the committee on interoceanic canals to
ascertain whether any claims exist in favor
of citizens of the United States against the
new or old Panama Canal Company; and
authorizing the committee to ascertain
whether unlawful or corrupt efforts have
been made to obtain any part of the sum
that may be applied to the purchase of the
property of the New Panama Canal Com
pany or to Costa Rica or Nicaragua by the
United States. was taken up.
After Mr.. Morgan had explained the reso-
luton Mr.. Spooner {Wisconsin) vigorously
opposed its adoption. declaring that it was
without precedent, entirely mischieYous and
obstructive of the action of Congress. The
United States was in no position he thought
to act as agent for bondholders or share
holders of the Panama Canal Company
Those people would have to look to the
French courts for their rights. 1t was not
the business Of the United States to con-
and of the people who had claims against
the Panama Canal Company.
Seeks Facts About the Lobby.
Mr.. Morgan insisted upon his resolution.
He wanted to know-and would know
whether not the lobby that had been
hanging about Congress so thick that it
might be cut with knife, had been re-
ceiving. or was to receive, a part of the
$40 100000 to be paid for the Panama canal
property. Things of that kind, he said,
had occurred in diplomacy since the first
treaty was made. Largesse. stipends and
brides were paid today to men who con-
Quoted great negotiations. He desired to
be assured that the United States had not
been scandalized In any respect.
