Spanish sailor the Cuban steamship Paloma
killed John Orln, a naturalized American while
the vessel was in Haytian waters, on July II
The murder came about over a quarrel at the

Prince the captain turned Adwela over to the
United States consul Although the murderer
was answerable to the Haytfan Government for
a crime committed on waters under it's jurisdic-

Friday Adwela was turned over to United
States Marshal Haubert
When the prisoner arraigned before

be settled. Adwela may claim the protection of
Spain. Cuba may demand the right to deal

has Jurisdiction In the case. because the crime
was committed within her boundaries The
United States may claim the right to punish
Adwela because Orlin. his victim, was citi-

ABOUT THE PANAMA CANAL.

At this time. when American commission is
studying in Paris the judicial aspect of the pur-
chase OF the Panama Canal. 1t may be interesting
to translate few lines from pamphlet Just pub
hshed In Paris on the same question. That pamphlet
is the work OF a naturalzed American citizen now
residing In France. Joseph Aron ex-president OF
the Sutro Tunnel Company. ax-representative in
New-York Of the banking frm OF Lazard Freres
and author Of several publications on political
economy. Without pretending 10 judge the drift
of Mr.. Aron's allegations here are some of them.
Unless the inside OF the strong box of the new
Panama Canal Company resembles that of the
Observation-Disclosures family. there should be found
in IL eS.534 shares out of the 10000 shares OF the
Panama Railroad They were bought In 1850 nv
the old Panama Canal Company for 100 600 6,s)
francs The real value of this railroad is now
considerably greater than in 1882 1t free from my
lien of arrangement with the transcontinentaI rail-
roads, which was not the case in 1882
Mr.. Aron quotes also the following opinion of one
Of the receivers OF the old Panama company:
The vote of the American Senate is conditional
upon the legal transfer of the rights of the Panama
company Then 1t happens that the new company
is pound oY contract with the Colombian Gov
