Route Of the Canal
May Make Trouble.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Jan. g.
Leave the selection of the route OF
the isthmain waterway to the Presi-
dent is the rallying cry o, all those
in Congress who favor the Panama
route or are partisans of the trans
continental railroads. 1t Is utilized
to gain delay of canal legislation.
When the Hepburn bill comes up ir
the House Immediately after the reas-
smbling of Congress this provision wlA
be offered as an amendment by some
Representative. 1t will fail in the
House, but in the Senate it can be de-
bated witnou. init and can be made
the vehicie of unlimited delay.
Henry Cabot Lodge, the Presidents
closest friena In the Senate. is an ad-
vocate OF this proposed amendment
He beneves the route should be left
entirely to the Presiuen,. While in
Paris last autumn he Investigated the
Panama project and at lat time pro-
nounced in favor of leaving the selec-
ton of the route to the President. The
inference is drawn that 1enator Lodge
believes the desirability of the Panama
route snould be further investigated
Secretary Hay believes that. al.
things being equal, the Panama route
should be employed if 1t can be
thoroughly Americanized. for the rea-
son that if the United States should
build he canal across Nicaragua any
european power or comDInation of
powers could complete the Panama
Canal and become a dangerous COM
