TREATY m SUSPENSE.
Friends Of the Panama Canal
Route Thoroughly Alarmed.

Washington, July 2s.-Friends OF the
Panama canal in Washington are much
concerned over the interview published
with Gen. Gabriel Vargas Santos, the
accepted leader of the Colombian Lib
erals, in which he predicts a continual
ton of the revolution and a refusal to
allow the Colombian congress to meet
for the purpose Of ratifying a treaty
with the United States concerning the
Panama canal.
In his interview. Gen. Santos explains
the reasons for rejecting the peace pro-
posals made by Dr. Concha, the Colom-
bian minister at Washington One of
these proposals provided for 4 general
election for members of the congress,
with the express object of considering
the treaty granting the Jurisdiction over
the Panama canal strip to the United
States. This proposal is rejected, with
the others, and Gen. Santos insists that
the Liberals are in position to continue
the war for another thirty months or
longer. 1t has already been in pro-
gress for thirty months. during which
time there has been no session of the
Colombian congress.
Even the most ardent advocates OF
the Panama canal route here do not
profess to believe that the United States
Will wait 80 months, nor anything like
that time, for the purpose of conclud-
ing treaty with Colombia. President
Roosevelt is in favor Of speedy action
In closing the negotiations for the canal
and it is generally believed that If con-
ditionS are such that a treaty can not
be secured promptly with Colombia, me-
gotfatiOns will be renewed with Mica
ragua and Costa Rica, under the alter
native provisions of the Spooner bill.
Thus far the preliminary negotiations
looking to the securing of the right Of
way for the canal over the Panama
route have progressed most satisfac-
torily. Officials of the state department
sonably well convinced that the French
Panama Canal company has authority
to transfer its title to the United States,
and that there will be no difficulty on
that score These negotiations and in
vestigations are well under way. But
the most important feature, the condi-
ton precedent for the construction of
the Panama canal, is the ratification Of
the treaty by which the United States
secures concessions from Colombia, CIV
ing this county absolute possession and
sovereignty over the canal strip.
DIR. COncha, the Colombian minister re-
fuses to be discouraged over the state
peace will soon be restored in Colombia
and that congress will be elected in Sep
TENDER that will give prompt and favora-
bic consideration to the treaty The Nj
caragua minister, on the other hand, is
encouraged to believe that the prolonging
cally compel the United States. if a long
delay is to be avoided, to abandon the
Panama plan and reopen negotiations with
Nicaragua and Costa Rica-

son of the miners said today that the
anthracite men are being well cared
for, although the assessment of the BIZ

semimonthly. The force at headquar-
tiers was increased today to handle the
funds.
The miners are making an appeal to
the members OF the American Fedora

to q direct appeal from the officers of
the federation. The habeas corpus pro-
ceedings for the release of the men inn
prisoned for violating Judge Jackson's
injunction are being prepared. No steps
will be taken. toward impeaching Judge
jackson, Secretary Wilson says, until

 Church Last Night.
 The recital of Rossinis 'Stabat Ma ter" by the quartette of St. Agnes R, 5C. church, New York city which took place in St. Johns R. c. church of this city last, was an artistic success. The New York quartette is a splendid one, and it's work last night was of high order. The choir of St. Johns church, augmented by members of other church cfoirs in the city, rendered the chorus parts admirably and they were under the direction of Professor Schwickardi, who had been drilling the chorus for some time past.
 Besides the rendition of the "Stabat Mater" there were several excellent so- los by members of the New York quar- tette and also by Miss Julia Kennedy and William Grabb, of this city The organ accompaniments were played by Professor Heynan, of New York.
 There was very large attendance, and it was the unanimous expression of opinion that the recital was one of the best ever given in this city.
