Washington, Nov. tS.-The only ca.
blegram that has been received at the
state department during the past
twenty-four hours from the Isthmus Of
Panama came to hand yesterday in
the shape of notice from Acting Con-
sui General Bhrman. at Panama. that
Beuneau PHILIPPE varllla, the Panama
representative at Washington, is the
person charged by his government
with power to negotiate a canal treaty
with the government of the United
States, and that Messrs Boyd and
Amador, the commissioners who sail
ed two days ago for Washington, were
charged with other missions, and
would only act in advisory capacity as
to the treaty.
M. Beuneau Varilla is disposed to
put forth every effort to hasten the
treaty negotiations. He called to See
Secretary Hay yesterday to make
preparations for his reception by the
president today in his capacity as min
lister for Panama. Just as soon as
that has been done he will ask to have
the negotiations formally opened, and
there is some probability that the new
treaty be ready for transmission
to the senate before Christmas The
new Panama constitution is not ex-
pected to include the provision In the
Colombian constitution, preventing
the alienation of territory, so that the
state department hopes to disarm criti.
cism on the score that 1t is not able to
obtain an absolute title in fee simple
to the canal tract. 1t also is expected
that this tract will be nearly double
that proposed in the Hay-Herran
treaty-a precaution in the interest Of
maintenance of order along the canal
