ISTHMIAN CANAL ROUTES
THEIR MERITS DISCUSSED AT
MEETING OF THE CABINET.
President Anxious Congress Should
Make ChOice-COmparisOn of
the Proposed Treaties.

WASHINGTON, April 25.-The Cabinet
held a short session to-day during which
the relative propositions of the Colombian
and Nicaraguan governments. in connec-
tion with the proposed canal, were dis
cussed. Both propositions will be at once
submitted to Congress. The President is
exceedingly anxious that whatever deter
mination Congress may come to as to the
event some decision may be reached at this
session.
A comparison of the outlines of the agree
ments or treaties made by the State De-
partment with Colombia in relation to the
Panama canal. and with Nicaragua and
Costa Rica 10 the Nicaragua canal
shows general resemblance in the scope
of the arrangements. but important differ
ences in details. One point of resemblance
is the amount of money to be paid down at
once by the United States government to
the country making the concession; in each
case this is S7.OOO,OOO If the Panama route
is chosen Colombia gets all of this money.
If the choice falls on the Nicaragua route
Nicaragua will receive S6,OO0OoO and Costa
Rica, H.00OOO0. good deal of the DELAY
that has occurred in concentrating the ar
rangements was owing to the difficulty in
reaching a basis of division as between
Nicaragua and Costa Rica and this is
generally fixed upon as about six to one
in favor of Nicaragua
No provision Is made in the Colombian
protocol for the payment of any annual
rent-that matter will be left TO future
adjustment, though. of course II is ex-
pected that some rent will be charged The
agreements as to the Nicaraguan canal
however, specifically state the rent to be
paid. which is $4,000 per annum, of which
Nicaragua will get about $4,000 and Costa
Rca 5000. While this rent is merely nomi-
nal, ii serves useful purpose in the esti-
mate of the Isthmian republics, namely to
continually assert the nominal sovereignty
of Nicaragua and Costa Rica over the ter
ritory through which the canal is cut The
original proposition was to pay a lump sum
representing the capitalization of this rent
for loo years. but the republics prefer to
have the money paid yearly in recognition
OF their sovereignty, and in consideration
of the allowance of their wish in this mat
ter they have gone to the length of making
the lease of the canal perpetual as against
the 100-year renewable lease OF the Colonn-
bian agreement Neither OF the ministers
-Nicaraguan or Costa Rican-has vet re-
ceived the full powers from their govern
ment necessary to the perfection of the
treaties.
The question OF the fiscal agency IN the
Philippines also was discussed by the ca hi
net but no conclusion was reached and II
was stated that none can be until the
attorney general renders his opinion on the
power of the Guaranty Trust Company to
keeps its agency.

BOYS DANGEROUS AS MEN
AND THEY WE'RE TO BE TREATED
AS REBELS WHEN ARMED.
AcquittaI of Major Waller and Lieut..
Day Announced-Tilt Between
Judge and a Lawyer.

MANILA, April 25.-The trial by court
martial of General Jacob II. Smith, on the
charge of conduct prejudicial TO good order
and discipline, began to-day. General Lloyd
Wheaton presided. Colonel Charles A.
Woodruff, counsel for the defense, said he
desired to simplify the proceedings. He was
willing to admit General Smith gave in
structions to Major Waller to kill and burn
and make Samar a bowling wilderness;
that he wanted everybody killed capable of
bearing arms and that he did specify all
over ten years of age as the Samar boys
Of that age were equally as dangerous as
their elders. Captain David Porter, marine
corps and Lieutenant John H. A. Day,
marine corps, were the only two witnesses
examined. Their testimony developed moth
ing new. Major Littieton w. T. Waller,
marine corps, will be the only other wit
ness for the prosecution. He was unable to
be present to-day on account Of sickness,
but it is expected will be in attendance to-
morrow. The defense will call several Off
GERS of the Ninth Infantry.
Major Waller and Lieutenant Day, of the
marine corps, who were tried by court
martial here on the charge of executing ma
tives of the Island of Samar without trial,
have been acquitted.
At the trial to-day of the editor of Free
dom, who is charged with sedition in pub
fishing an article from an American periodi-
cal TO which the editor of Freedom agreed
and added remarks of his own censuring

attorney general L. r. Wilhey. created
sensation and astounded the judge. law
yers and spectators. He lost his temper
with Judge Odlin and said: THE civil gov
errnnent wants TO know where it stands un-
der the law passed. 1t wants to know
whether IL will be enforced or whether such
unwarranted statements will be allowed.
The court knows the wishes OF the gov
ernrnent, and II is 10 be presumed that ii
knows its own rules.
.Edge Odlin replied: THE court will de-
termine the case according to law. The
court wants you to understand that il be-
lieves individuals have rights as well as
governments.
The defense had asked for a delay of
week owing to counsel having been dis
qualified on account Of not passing the
Filipino standard OF law. The hearing of
the demurrers in the case was postponed
until May g.
