&hw% Resume Of the Weeks
Preceding.

Washington, Nov. 24.-Panama and
Cuba engaged the attention of the
senate yesterday to the exclusion OF all
other questions. Nj. Hale moved to
reconsider the vote by which the
Newlands Joint resolution for the an
nexation OF Cuba was referred to a
committee and several speeches were
made on the motion without disposing
OF II. Messrs. Hale, Lodge and Plat
Comm disavowed any desire on the
part Of the United States to acquire
CUBA, and expressed regret that the
resolution had been introduced. Mr..
Newlands defended the measure as
presenting a natural solution of the
problem of the relationship between
the two countries.
The Panama question came up In
connection with the announcement of
reorganization OF senate committees.
Mr.. Morgan (Dem., Ala), being re-
lieved from the Craftsmanship of the
committee OF lnteroceanic canals.
Before the order went into effect Mr..
Morgan took the floor and his speech
proved to be discussion of the entire
canal question with liberal criticisms
Of the president for his course. He
had not concluded when the senate
adjourned, and will proceed to-day.
Before adjournment the senate

DEER HUNTING IS RISKY.

sion of twenty-five minutes duration,
the senate adjourned until next Tues

Washington. NOV. 25.-The Panama
canal question was again the leading
topic under consideration by the SEN
ate yesterday, and Mr.. Morgan was
again the speaker of the day. He con-
unued his review of the history of the
efforts to secure an isthnian canal.
and declared that to the presidents
ambition to secure the credit Of
unique administration must be credit
ed the fayoritism manifested by him
toward the Panama route. He assert
ed that President Mckinley had ia,
vored the Nicaragua line, and this
statement was challenged by Mr..
Hanna, who said he knew of his own
personal knowledge that Mr.. McKin-
ley had urged the most careful investi-
cation after he had learned that the
Panama canal property was available.
The question of committee assign
ments was again postponed as was
also the motion to reconsider the vote
on the Newlands joint resolution con-
corning the annexation Of Cuba.

First secretary's Status.

The announcement that 1t has been
decided by the English government TO
invest the first secretary OF its embassy
at Washington with the rank OF minis
ter plenIpotentiary has given rise to
good deal of misconception, one Of the
leading and ordinarily best-informed OF
New York papers going so far as 20 de-
clare that the ambassador viii content
himself with merely representing his
sovereign in his personal dealings with
the President. and that the entire ordi-
nary diplomatic work viii be cared for
by the minister.
OF course this Is a mistake. The rank
OF minister plenipotentiary has for
number OF years past been given to the
first secretary of the British embassy
in Paris. and also in Berlin and Vienna
in order 10 invest them with greater
degree of authority and prestige, while
acting as charge d'affaires during the
absence Of the ambassador. AS tha
English embassy in the United states
is, from a diplomatic point Of view, as
important to England as her mission
in France. 1t is only natural that she
should give her first secretary in Wash
ington the same rank that he enjoys
in Paris.

Ridiculous PretensiOns.

These pretensions are ridiculous. For
the general is merely a morganatic de-
scendant in the male line of that French
Prince Philip Due d'Anjou grandson OF
King Louis XIV of France). who. on
being elected to the throne or Spain as
King Philip V. sOlemnly renounced for
himself and for his descendants all
claims to the crown of France.
That the Anjou line OF the house of
Bourbon, which now occupies the
throne of Spain. is the senior branch
of the house OF Bourbon, since the
death of the late count de Chambord
extinguished the elder French line,
descended from King Louis XIV,
cannot be denied. Don Carlos Is the
head of the Anjou line. and King Alfon-
so a member thereof. but by reason OF
the act Of remuneration of King Philip
V. II has no claims to the French
throne, and even II Gen. Francis de
