LONDON, Oct. 2s.-The Irish members
collectively absented themselves from the
House Of Commons to-day and returned
to Ireland.
The sitting was devoted exclusively 10
the Education bill. Owing to the slow
progress that Is being made with the meas
ure it is understood that the Government
will closure the bill by sect ions so az to force
it through the House by the beginning OF
December.
The Irish members never intended 20
take part in the committee stage OF the
Education bill. They appeared only for
the purpose Of opposing Mr.. Wyndham's
application Of the Crimes act. They OBJ
tanned a debate on This subject last night.
and thereafter decided to absent them
selves from the House, as they have no
wish to help the Government. They do
rot oppose the Education bill which the
Catholic authorities support.
LONDON, Oct. 29-The Times suggests
that the abstention Of the Irish members is
intended TO lull tie Government into a
feeling of false security. when they will
spring a fresh surprise.

DELAYS THE CANAL TREATY.
Colombian Minister Concha Is stu Wiring
for Inst ructiOns.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s.-Considerable irri-
tation is felt in official circles over the
knowledge that SehDr Concha the Colom-
bian Minister, Is believed to be DELAYING
the negotiation of treaty between
the United States and Colombia comforting
on this Government the right to build the
Panama Canal.
Information in the possession OF the
State Department Is to the effect that
Sofor Concha received Instructions from
his Government several weeks ago, de-
fning its position with reference to the
points Of difference over the acquisition
by the United States of the canal
strip. but that he has declined to act upon
the inst ructions to renew the negotiations
with the authorities here.
While the officials Of the Colombian
Legation insist that there has been no
purpose on the part of Minister Concha
to delay carrying out instructions FRI
his Government to renew the canal trea, y
negotiations, it is admitted there that no
attitude Of Admiral Casey has injected a
new feature into the matter ana Soflur
COncha IL unwilling TO proceed with the
negotiations until he has received from
Bogota additional Instructions, which may
be the outgrowth Of Admiral Caseys
conduct.
The legation here knows that the Colon.
bian Government was very much exercised
over Admiral Casey's order forbidding
the transportat ion of Colombian troops
on the Isthmian railroad, and that it has
become incensed to much greater degree
through his later course in boarding the
Colombian gunboat Bogota. which was
bought at Seattle, Washington. and de-
| handing to see her papers and TO know
what right she had to fly the Colombian
flag.
According to tho explanation made at
the Colombian legation, these acts of Adj
miral Casey may have an important bear
ing on Colombia's attitude toward the
canal treaty.
pue Of the matters under consideration
in the negotiation Of the treaty Is the in
corporation In II of clauses to take the place
Of these features Of the treaty between the
United States and New Granada, proclaimed
IN lsi0, 10y which this Government obligated
itself to prevent the interruption Of traffic

The manner in which Admiral Casey has
Interpreted the authority of the United

Mrs. Helen Soden. who lives three doors
away, called on her every morning. When
she went TO the house last Sunday morning

doors and then went home. When she went
to the house Yesterday she found the door
leading to the room where the woman's
body lay, open Entering, she was startled
to find Miss Carter's body lying on the
floor, and everything in the place upset.
She rushed downstairs and told Mrs.
Bond of what had happened. Mrs. Bond
said they had two wstchdogs and they
did not bark nor did they hear any noise
during the night.
The police Of the fremont station were
notified and when the detecti YES searched
the place they discovered that the burglars
had gotten into the woman's room by
first climbing through the roof into the
hallway.
A sectional Jimmy" AMI an odd-ooking
screw driver were found on thebed. Every
trunk box and vase in the place had been
| overturned and ransacked The body

get AT the desk.

She used a. studio the detectives found
chest Of silyerware. chiefly family heir
looms, which had not been touched. An
empty jewel box Law in one OF the rooms.
Mrs. Soden said last night that she did
