Changed His Mind. 81

Washington, June 6--Those who ia
yor the Nicaragua route for the pro
posed isthmiRn canal are not disturbed
by the argument in favor of the Pana-
ma route made by Senator Hanna to-
day. The impression that Hanna's ad-
vocacy OF the Panama route has for its
object the defeat OF the whole project
has now become settled conviction
in many quarters and while the Ohio
senator's motives may be Of the high
est, there are many who think they
see some connection between his posi-
ton and that of the interoceanic rail
ways, which, of course, would be glad
to see canal legislation effectually
blocked However that may be, it is
said that Hanna brought out nothing
today which cannot be successfully an
swered by Morgan and his friends.
The whole matter is still in rather
doubtful condition. Judging from the
present situation, some sort of canal
legislation will be enacted at this ses-
sion, but the exact nature of this legis-
lation is by no means certain. ;. A care
full poll of the senate shows that for
ty-one members are in favor of the Mic
aragua route, thirty-five are in favor of
the Panama route and twelve are
doubtful. Since it has become known
that the president is willing to assume
the responsibility of selecting the route
there is thought to be some chance for
the Spooner amendment, notwithstand-
ing the adverse report made on that
amendment by the canal committee.
When the senate convened to resume
at'2 o'clock the consideration Of the is
thmian canal bill, five large maps, de
picting various phase of the cana
question, were displayed about the
walls of the chamber. Presumably
these were to enable Mr.. Hanna, who
