HALT OF CANAL NEGOTIATIONS.

The announcement that the Panama
canal negotiations had come to a halt.
owing TO the rejection by Colombia of
the last proposition of the United States,
was a distinct surprise. although the
disposition that had been manifested
by the Colombian government caused
some apprehension. 1t was to be ex-
pected that that government would be
somewhat exacting, but there had been
such apparently earnest expressions of
a desire that this country should con-
struct the canal that it was believed
Colombia would eventually accept the
terms offered by our government.
Having declined our proposition as
the basis of a treaty, which is as far
as this government is willing to 60 in
making concessions, it looks rs II the
Panama route will have to be dropped
unless the Colombian government shall
recede from its position, which seems
improbable. 1t appears to be the de,
termination of that government to insist
upon its own terms and conditions and
In order that 1t may do his it is under,
stood that Nicaragua and Costa Rica
have been induced to keep out of negOti.
atoms with the United States, at least
until II should become certain that nc
treaty would be made between this
country and Colombia. Thus there
seems to be a definite arrangement be.
tween those countries looking to coer
cling the United States into accepting
their terms or abandoning the project
Of an isthmian canal. 1t is a situation
that strikingly shows the untrustworthi
ness Of assurances and promises from
these sources.
What further steps our government.
will take II is impossible 10 say. bu.
probably there will be no effort to re
