Oyster Bay. N. r.. Aug. 2s.-In .
discussion OF the Panama canal mat
ter Friday between President Roose-
welt and Secretary of State Hay three
courses the administration could pur-
sue were taken up. The first is to ig-
more Colombia and proceed to con-
struct the canal under the treaty with
New Granada In 1886. to fight Colom-
bia II she objects. and create an indie
pendent government of Panama out OF
the present state OF Panama. This
would give the United States what Is
expected to be short and inexpen-
sive war, but would insure a perma-
nent settlement of the question OF the
sovereignty OF the canal zone across
the isthmus of Panama
The second course is that the presi-
dent shall act in accordance with the
provisions of the Spooner law, and,
having failed to make treaty sue
cessfully with Colombia, turn to the
Nicaragua route.
The third course is to delay this
great work until something trans
pires to make Colombia see the light
and resume negotiations for another
treaty.
The administration has engaged
with the difficulty arising through the
failure of the Colombian congress to
ratify the Panama canal treaty with
out amendment and seeks speedy So
luton.

TRADE REVIEW.
Predictions by Pessimists of Depres-
sion in business Fails or
Retaliation.

New York, Aug. 29.-R. G. Dun &
Co.'S weekly review of trade says:
There is still no indication of the de-
preston in trade and industry that
pessiInists predicted would follow the
decline in securities. Conservatism
was developed by the uncertainty re-
garding the effect upon financial con-
ditions, but legitimate business is able
to secure funds as they are required.
and the more cautious progress Of
business gives promise Of greater per-
manent gain. Weak spots have been
disclosed, and the technical position
strengthened, just as occurred in the
stock market. REIMBURSEMENT after a
period of imitation must of necessity
bring some losses. yet the outlook is
frightened by the removal of threat
ening Industrial clouds. Dispatches
from all sections testify to the liberal
distribution of merchandise and the
disposition to prepare for greater con-
sumption Of all the necessaries Of life,
while the crops are making good
progress aside from some cotton dis

ers in New York Is Increasing and q
heavy fall trade is anticipated.
Failures this week numbered lie
in the United States, against 173 last
year, and 33 in Canada, compared
with IA year ago"
Bradstreet's says: Trade conditions
are still slightly uneven, due to the
backwardness of crops in some sec
tons, damage reports from others and
uncertainty as to the monetary out
look. Fall trade in favorably situated
sections compares well with year
ago, while in others disposition to
hold back is manifested. Car conges-
ton reports are still numerous The
feeling grows that the iron trade is
grounding on the bottom as regards
prices, and small buying of pig iron is
more marked; but here again some
uncertainty is still noticeable. Taken
as a whole. the situation has many
elements of strength. What business
Is doing is Of solid character, and, in
fact, any tendency to over-extension
Is conspicuously absent"

HER LAST VOYAGE.


New York, Aug. 29.-The announce
ment that the White Star line steam
ship Britannia IL now on her last voy-
age marks the passing Of one OF the
most famous of the Atlantic steam
ships. She has just sailed from Bel
fast for Bremen, having been sod to
firm to be broken up. The Britannia
was built in 1874 and. soon after being
put In commission, reduced the time
between Queenstown and Sandy Hook
TO less than seven days. She estab-
Iished a record for the eastward voy-
age of seven days 16 hours. The Bril-
tannic was considered a wonder In her
day, not only for her speed, but for
size and luxury. She has used the en-
gines and boilers which were put into
her when she was built, never missing
a day through accident or disability.
The Britannia made better time after
years of continuous service than when
first put in service. making her four
hundred and eighteenth trip In Sep
TENDER, 1890. in seven days, six hours
and IS minutes, breaking her previous

nine hours and 80 minutes, afterward
crossing In seven days, six hours and
81 minutes. Her best westward record
was made in August, 1896, seven days
seven hours and 30 minutes. Twenty
nine years of service under her orig
inal engines and boilers Is record
not likely to be approached by ocean
steamships for years to come.
The Britannia. between 1874 and
1899, made some 26O voyages between
New York and Liverpool, crossing the
Atlantic more than 500 times. She
travelled about 100000 miles, or
enough to take her more than 70 times
around the world, and carried more
than 100000 passengers.
When the British-Boe war broke
out in 1899 the British government
claimed the Britannia for use as q
transport. In 1900 she was selected
to convoy the imperial corps which es-
corted the prince of Wales on his tour
of the colonies, making the trip OF
29, 900 miles This was the end Of her
military service and since then she
has been lying at Belfast.

THE bird In the tree top sends forth his
L note OF sweet song and then swing
ing off upon the breeze he mounts up
upon the glittering shafts of the sunbeam
into the blue of heavenIapd is lost to sight
and sound, and it is not hard to imagine
that he has gained the ramparts of the
heavenly city and is mingling his rare
music with that of the angelic hosts.
The rich farmer drives by and, with
a commissioning glance at the poor
house, he talks with me about his fine
farm down yonder which he is going to
visit. l met him that day. This is no
fine figure of imagination. This is real
life as the Lord opened it up to me that
day. The rich farmer with his heart
buried in the soil, and his glance reach
ing no higher than the tasselling corn
tops which drank in the Heaven-sent
sunshine and cool evening dew. who saw
the reddening and glowing sunset re-
flected in the rosy-cheeked apples hang
ing in heavy profusion from the bending
limbs, and never thought Of Him who
had tinted the swelling sides of the
luscious fruit, but was carefully figuring
on the number of barrels he could send
to market and the price they would bring.
The pauper in the poor house grounds
heard the song Of the bird that day. Per-
haps his soul bounded upward with the
fight of the bird in prophetic promise of
the resurrection morn.
The rich farmer with his bursting
granaries, his spanking team and his
fine farm down yonder, was covering his
soul so deep with this worlds possessions
that It never could hear the glad music
Of the resurrection morning, but would
sleep the heavy sleep Of death until sum-
moned to appear before God and then
pass on into the outer darkness.
II had had the wealth Of a Vanderbilt
| to have bestowed upon those paupers and
| I had emptied that poor house that day
and given each mansion and bank ac-
count, It would not have pleased my
Lord SO much, l believe. as the ministry
which I rendered in His name and fol
His sake. And is not this our greatest
obligation to the poor? Mere charity
which alleviates physical suffering does
not fulfill our highest obligation to them
II the Lord and His claim upon the pool
are left out! II the greatest need OF the
poor-salvation in Christ and treasure In
Heaven--is not supplied. then have W.
failed. We may have given to the poor
but we have not given to the Lord. The
poor we have always with us, and wher
we will we many do them good. but lie,

of love and devotion and gratitude a,
