CANAL TREATY DELAYED
COLOMBIA's TERMS NOT ALL AC-
CEPTED BY SECRETARY HAY.
Latter Has Taken a Firm stand and
Work of the Life-Savers.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 19.-Dinerences
have arisen between the State Department
and the Colombian government which de-
lay an agreement on the terms Of a canal
treaty beyond the time in which it had
been expected to conclude the treaty. Sec
rotary Hay has furnished the Colombian
minister, Mr.. Concha, with memorandum
setting forth the position of the govern
ment, which was prepared by the secretary
after he had received similar memoran-
dunn from Mr.. Concha defining the Colon
bian position. There are differences be-
tween the two which must be reconciled
before treaty can be drawn. 1t has been
believed until now that all was favorable
between the two governments. 1t is ap-
parent that Mr.. Hay has taken a firm posi-
ton, and did not adopt all the terms pro-
posed by Mr. Concha, or some especially
desired by the Colombian government 1t
has been understood that the discussions
which have been held during the tendency
of the negotiations have touched more upon
what is regarded by this government as
less important matters of consideration
than upon the material points involved.
1t is assumed that Mr.. Concha will refer
the points of variance to his government
and thus time will be consumed. as IL will
take several days to get a reply from Bo-
gotta TO his inquiries.
To what extent the differences may prove
to be obstacles in the way of a consumma-
ton of treaty remains to be seen. Sec
rotary Hay appreciates that any treaty
must be acceptable to the Senate. and has
of senators before stating the terms which
he has laid before the Colombians.

Henry Fegan, Eight Years Old, Killed
Under a Wagon.

Little did Henry Fegan. eight years old,
think yesterday as he ran laughing from
school No. &c that within the next half
hour he would be a corpse. The boy in
childish glee leaped on a farmers wagon
and in getting off fell under the heavy
load and received injuries from which he
died within few minutes.
Young Fegan, with several other boys,
left the school at $40 o'clock. Just as
they were coming out of the building they
saw a huge farm wagon belonging to Cur
tbs Moon living at 5l1 West Thirty-first
street. Moon had a ton of bran on the
wagon en- route to Crown HILL The boys
seeing an opportunity TO get ride, jumped
on the wagon. Moon turned and told them
to get off. The boys, instead of complying
crawled under the bed Of the wagon and
rested on the coupling pole. Moon thought
no more of the boys until he heard the
chuckling underneath. He then called to
them 10 get off before they got hurt One
of the boys leaped off safely, but the F'egan
boy. in jumping, caught his foot in the
spokes of the front wheel. He was thrown
head downward against the pavement and
the rear wheel of the wagon passed over
his neck He was carried by Moon to the
sidewalk and his parents sent for. The boy
was bleeding and 1T was evident that he
was fatally injured. Moon immediately
sent for DIR. Torian, who, when he arrived
said little could be done to save the boy 5
life. The city ambulance was called and
on the arrival of DR.. Schenck the how died
He was taken TO his home at 1911 North
Illinois street.
There were number of witnesses to the
accident and they said Moon was not TO
blame. Petrolman Butcher took Moon 10
the Office or superintendent Taffe, where
he made a satisfactory explanation of the
accident.

HUMAN BONES DISCOVERED.


Workmen engaged in making excavations
for the new lake at Riverside Park made
a grewsome find yesterday afternoon when
they discovered what is supposed TO have
been an ancient graveyard. This was evil
denced by the finding of human skulls,
arms and legs and whole skeletons in a
good state of preservation.
The men are building the lake at the
south end of the park near the first loop.
They have made much progress and have
dug nearly four feet deep into the bed.
While several of the men were shoveling
yesterday afternoon they were appalled, at
seeing brown bits OF human bones fall
from the shovels OF dirt thrown upon the
bank. One of the park policemen standing
near and seeing the bones thrown out al
once began an investigation. The alarmed
workmen. when urged. dug out more spcci-
mems of the human anatomy. Small par
ticles of collins were also found. IL Is said
that the bones of six people were recovered.
The workmen will continue to-day and
unearth all that remain In the bed OF the
proposed lake.
Ii is thought that the human bones un-
earthed are those buried many years ago
by the early settlers In Marion county The
graveyard is near Emerichsvilie and AZ is
thought that the early farmers utilized
the little plot OF ground near the river
for their burying ground. IL is thought
that IL was many years ago since the
bodies were buried. No graveyard in that
place is known TO the old inhabitants now
living at EmerichsVille.
