have to be paid by the United States for
private rights along the canal
Mr.. Harris replied that. so far as he
knew, no data on the subject had been pre-
pared and no estimate had been made. Mr..
Morgan said that by an arrangement with
the Nicaraguan government all acquisi-
lions OF land by the United States would
date back to the conditions which prevailed
in December, 1900. That would preclude alb
solutely speculation in the land along the
route. Continuing. Mr.. Harris insisted that
rant the United States in building the Mica
ragua canal even though the Panama
route were presented to this country.
Again Mr.. Tillman interrupted TO express
his apprehension that spectators had OBJ
tanned or would obtain title to lands that
would be necessary to the United states II
the Nicaragua route were selected he
was afraid these claims would spring up IN
the pathway of the United States, with
hands outstretched toward the treasury
with the demand TO stand and deliver.
Mr.. Harris replied that, In view or the
diplomatic arrangements between the
United States and Nicaragua, no such APP
prehension as that suggested was war
ranted. although in project of THIS KIND
and this magnitude, it was impossible, per
haps, to guard absolutely against frauds OF
the kind suggested.
In conclusion Mr.. Harris expressed the
hope that when the canal was built 1t would
be made free to the coastwise trading YES
sells of the United States. In this connec-
ton he urged that If the Panama route
were adopted the canal would be useless
for sailing vessels. upon which, he said, the
people of the United States had to rely 1oI
protection against the shipping trusts, The
adoption OF the Panama route would be an
absolute prohibition of sailing vessels.
Mr.. Morgan discussed briefly the diplo-
matte negotiations between the United
States and the governments of Nicaragua
and Costa RIGA to show that neither Mica
ragua nor Costa Rica could have claims
against this government through the OfC
Maritime Canal Company. He pointed ou
that il was through the wisdom and fore.
sight of William Mckinley that the United
States had acquired the exclusive right Il
construct a canal through Nicaragua and
Costa Rica and he declared that thi:
ever performed by a President of the
United States" II had cleared the way fol
the construction of the canal. and those
two southern nations were bound by the
agreement until this Congress should TAX,
action on the canal question.
The Senate then, at $50 p. m, went into
executive session and soon afterward adj
journed.
During the early part of the session, tn,
