Senator Morgan for Senate Bill.

1t was stated in the House about noon
that Senator Morgan had sent word to the
Alabama delegation in Congress that it
was advisable to accept the Senate Panama
substitute just as it stands. On inquiry this
proved to be correct, and the fact that the
foremost supporter of the Nicaragua route
advised agreeing to the senate amendment
was considered as conclusively indicating
the final results. Mr.. Morgans views were
communicated to one of the Alabama men,
bers, and, by request, were made known
to all the members of the delegation.
