NEW OBSTACLES
 IN WAY OF CANAL
EVERY FRESH TURN IN DEVELOP MENT OF THE PROJECT DlS- CLOSES MORE TRouBLE-GoV- ERNMENTS MAKE HARD TERMS.

Washington, March 5.-Every fresh turn in the development of the Isthmian canal project discloses a new obstacle. It now appears that the protocols negoti- ated last spring with Nicaragua and Costa Rica, whereby those countries out lined the terms upon which they were prepared to enter into permanent treaties with the United States conveying the necessary rights for canal construction are no longer of effect.
 Conditions have changed since then and whenever the balance of opinion turns toward one route for the canal, the government interested in the favorite route suddenly hardens its terms and is disposed to abandon past agreements. Therefore 1t will be necessary to draw up new protocols not only for the Pan anna canal with Panama, but for the Me araguan canal with Costa Rica and Me aragua in pursuance with the state de- partment's policy of placing 1t within the power of Congress to freely choose either route.

CITIZENS WATCH
 BURGLARS WORK
SAW SAFE BLOWN OPEN, BUT WERE AFRAID TO GIVE ALARM, AS THERE WAS DANGER OF BE- ING SHOT.

Washington, Ind, March 5.-While two citizens were watching, burglars footed the First National Bank at Montgomery, seven miles east of here, early this morn ing and escaped with $3,5OO in money and s, 600 worth of government bonds
 Five explosions of nitroglycerine were required to blow open the safe, and many people were awakened by the con cussion. William Klusmeir and Charles Fncoff, the latter a former policeman, and who resides across the street from the bank, both watched the burglars at work, but gave no alarm for fear of being shot down by two of the cracks men who were patrolling the streets with revolvers in their hands.
 The fifth explosion tore the doars from the safe and the men quickly gathered up the money and bonds and ran to the Baltimore and Ohio Southwestern Rail- way, where they boarded a hand car. abandoning it a mile west of the town After that no trace of them could be found. The stolen bonds are of the cou- pon variety, payable to bearer, and <an be easily cashed by the robbers. The bank is protected by $50,000 burglar in- surance. Montgomery has no night police men.

washington, March b.-It is learned that the treasury department looks with disfavor upon those banks which withdraw bonds now deposited to secure circula- ton either for the purpose of placing them in the market to secure the higher premium now prevailing or for the pur- pose of making them the basis for an ap- plication to secure government deposits and it is believed that Secretary Shaw will not be disposed. in the event of a fur ther increase of the government deposits, to designate those banks which have so withdrawn bonds now held by the treas ury to secure circulation.
