MORGAN FIGHTS PANAMA PLAN.
Alabama Senator Makes Argument
for Nicaragua Canal Route.

WASHINGTON, D. c., April lin his
argument on behalf Of the Nicaragua
canal plan in the senate today Mr.. Nor
gan, of Alabama, discussing the decision
OF the Walker commission, said:
mo member of either of the three
commissions expressed a doubt or appre-
hension as to the certainty of the success
full completion of canal on the Near
aguan route on either of five plans that
nave Deen adopted, surveyed and located
by the greatest engineers in America.
THE feasibility, practicability, useful
ness, permanence and commercial value
of the Panama canal to the United States
are all clouded with many doubts.
Zone duty that the government owes to
humanity-Which rises above all other
personal considerations-in the choice of
these routes is the care of the health and
lives of men whose labor is the real
power that must open this great water
way.
ut is a political situation of great mo-
ment. and it is cause of sincere graft
hcation to the three republics concerned
in this canal that their interests are uni
fled and not discordant, as the interests
of the state of Panama are toward those
of Colombia"
Referring to the position taken by the
advocates Of the Panama route. Mr. Nor
gan said: mo more reckless an attitude
was ever taken with reference to an
economic question. or with less benev-
olence, reason, or justice to support it,"
Mr.. Morgan maintained that the
isthmian canal commission had no author
ity to accept an offer of the Panama
Canal company, and that the sole duty
of the president was to determine the
route he would recommend to congress.
1t rested entirely with congress- he said,
whether or not it should accept the
'glittering temptation in the way of
bargain offered by the Panama company

Beheading Not instant Death.

Considerable attention mas lately been
given in France to the old question as to
whether death follows instantaneously
upon decapitation. A French physician
asserts that it does not. In his opinion
the blood which flows after decapitation
comes from the large vessels of the neck.
and there is hardly any call upon the
circulation Of the Uranium. The brain
remains intact, nourishing itself with the
blood retained by the pressure Of the air
When the blood remaining in the head
at the moment of separation is exhausted
there commences a state, not of death,
but Of inertia. which lasts up to the mo-
ment when the organ, no longer fed,
ceases to exist 1t is estimated by the
physician in question that the brain finds
nourishment in the resduary blood for
about an hour after decapitation. The
period of inertia would last for about
two hours, he thinks, and absolute death
would not ensue till after the space OF
three hours altogether. Possibly this
may be some consolation to those about
to be guillotined.-London News.

that the man "squealed" terribly, and
that his eyes were blood-shot, but that
the next day he was able TO mount his
horse and lead the soldiers to the noun

said, taken to Iloilo and placed in prison.
The witness also repeated the state
ment that two police officers of the town
of Igbaras had been subjected to the
cure.
There was" he said, "a native school
teacher arrested at the same time, but
the water cure was not administered to
him. He was taken to one of the back
rooms Of the convent by DR.. Lyons, who
secured the information he wanted from
him by placing two Colts revolvers to
his head, thus making it unnecessary
to administer the water cure.
Did you see this?"
81 did,"
Mr.. Davis then gave the details of the
burning of the town of Igbaras, which
he said contained about 10000 people, but
no business places. All but about fifteen
huts were destroyed and men, women
and children were forced out indiscrimin-
ately.
Senator Burrows-Who gave the order
to burn the town?
The Witness-Capt. Glenn.

The witness also said that neighbor-

burned but he did not know who had
given the order for its, destruction.
He stated in reply to questions that the
torture in all the instances mentioned
had been conducted by the regular sol
diers, and that they had not been par
ticipated in by the members of his regi-
ment, the Twenty-sixth volunteers.

that the other natives did not generally
seem to have any sympathy for him.
Mr.. Davis said he had been in charge
of a detachment of fifteen men in the
town of Igbaras for several months be-
fore the arrival of the regulars, and also
for some time afterward, and that he had
never had any trouble whatever with the
natives. He had talked with the regular
soldiers about the water cure and had
been given to understand that its ad-
administration was not of rare occur
renee, but said they had not given names
of persons or places.
He replied to Senator Lodge that he
knew of the torture Of several members
of Company F, of his regiment, by ma
tives, but it had been his understanding
that they were killed by ladrones, rather
than by the town authorities, as Col
Dickman had reported.

John P. Vance, with the Lillibridge-
his native state, but declared that he had
no prejudice against colored people. AL

Vance escaped duty because he was
squeamish about intlicting the death pen

excuses. Hops said he was born in
England. He had formed no opinions
from reading the newspaper accounts of

Are you citizen of the United

THE ANGEL OF Safety.

Pale, beyond porch or portal
Crowned with calm leaves She stands
Who gathers all things mortal
With cold immortal hands:
Her languid lips are sweeter
Than loves who fears to greet her
To men that mix and meet her
From many times and lands.
There go the loves that wftIer.
The old loves with Wearied wings.
And all dead years draw thither,
And all disastrous things;
Dead dreams Of days fOrsaken.
Blind buds that SHOWS have shaken.
WIld leaves that winds have taken;
Red sprays Of ruined springs
From too much love Of living.
From hope and fear set free.
We thank with brief Thanksgiving
Whatever gods may be.
TINT no life lives forever:
That dead men rise uD never.
That even the weariest river
Winds somewhere safe to sea.

Twenty Terrific
Rounds.

WATERBURY,, Conn, April 17.-Austln
Rice and Dave Sullivan. of New London
and New York, respectively, fought one
of the hardest battles of their lives to-
night in Polls theater, before a crowd Of
1900 people, under the auspices of the
Waterbury and Nutmeg Athletic clubs.
The articles called for twenty rounds at
Referee Crowley declaring it a draw.
Sullivan took the most punishment, and
at times it locked like Rice's fight. Sui
Ivan received his punishment over the
kidneys that caused him to assume an
agonzed expression at times. He failed
in nearly every instance to land his ter
rible right on Rice's jaw. Sullivan said
after the fight: This man can take
more punishment and return it at the
same time than Terry McGovern."
1t was the general opinion that Rice
had the better of the mill.
