THE PANAMA QUESTION.
Hoar. Foraker and German Make
Notable Speeches I'm the Senate Con.
cernIng the lSIhnus.

Washington, Dec. 1S.-The senate
yesterday was the scene of a most
important debate on the isthmian
canal question as affected by the
presidents recognition of the indie
dcnce of the republic of Panama. The
discussion began with speech by
Mr.. Hoar on his resolution of in
quiry that lasted several hours. In
addition to Mr.. Hoar's address there
were speeches by Mr.. German and
Mr.. Foraker. All three were notable
utteranceS.
Mr.. Hoar confined his remarks to
his resolution and they were careful
ly written out and read from manu-
script. He held that this country
has not yet received full official in
formation concerning the isthmian
revolution, and criticised in sharp
terms the conduct of this country as
shown by what has been given out.
He compared the conduct of the
United States on the iSthmus to a
policeman who would manaclc and
hold a person about to be attacked
for robbery, and who would then in
siSt on having the spoils of the theft
delivered to himself.
Intfc was no reservation IN Mt.
Gorman's utterances. He practically
alleged that the situation in Panama
had been created to make a camTaign
issue, and charged Assistant Secre-
tary of State Loomis with a viola
ton of the propricties in discussing
the question at Il banquet in New
York. He also said that unless fur
ther light was thrown on the subject
he would oppose the Panama treaty.
He also referred to the impetuous ac-
tion of the executive and declared
that the senate should prevent the
jeopardizing of the business inter-
ests of the country.
Mr.. Foraker took Mr.. Hoar to task
severely for his remarks rejecting on
the administration and his indescre-
ton in speaking in open session con-
corning executive matters. He de-
Tended the administration for its at
titude toward the Panama revolt. \
heated colloquy took place between
Mr.. Foraker and Mr.. IIoar during an
effort of the Massachusetts senator
to explain more fully his position in
the matter.

TOMB OF ZACHARY TAYLOR.
Resting Place of the Twelfth PrezI-
dent of the United States Fast
Falling to Decay.

The tomb of Zachary Taylor, twelfth
president of the United States, is fast
falling to decay, says the Kansas City
World
A correspondent who recently visited
the place says for over half a century it
has lacked the care of kindly hand.
Apparently, nobody cares.
The tomb lies five miles from Louis
vile. and is somewhat off the road.
Ivy riots over the weather. beaten blocks
of granite. The fastenings on the door
are red with rust. So far as known, no
key has turned the locks for 80 years.
Visitors are rare. 1t is doubtful if half
a dozen tourists visit the tomb during a
twelvemonth.
And this neglected spot is the last
resting place of the hero of the Black
Hawk and Florida wars. Here is the
dust of that great soldier, who, with
1000 American rilemen. drove in re-
treat 10000 MeXicans under Santa Ana
at Buena Vista. Here are tk remains
of the American Cortez and esident
of the United States. He who co. .uuered
the swamps and everglades of Florida
and made Mexico surrender is forgot

THREE YEARS LATE,
Train Started ;n September, 1908, and
Has Just Reached Its Destina-
tiOn 20 Niles Away.

Persons who become ffsrful over the
delays of surface cars or the detention
of steam trains ought to sit up and be
cheerful when they read what the New
York Press has to say of Texas train.
The Press declaves that recently Gulf
& Interstate railway train arrived in
Beaumont nearly three years late, and
explains the matter as follows:
The train left Bolivar, just across
Galveston bay from Galveston, on Sep
tember 8, 1900, and was caught in the
great storm which so nearly destroyed
Galveston. Bolivar is IS miles from
Beaumont. Before the train had trav-
eled far on it's journey it was caught in
the storm. Thirty miles of the track
were washed away, and the train was
left stranded on a sandy waste.
Dozens of persons who lived on Boil
var peninsula were saved from death
by taking refuge in the train. After
the storm subsided they walked to
Bolivar with the passengers. But the
abandoned train was left on the prairie.
The storm bankrupted the railroad,
and no effort to rescue the engine and
cars was made until recently. Had the
road not suffered so seriously in that
storm the property would have proved
of great value few months later, when
oil was struck at Beaumont. The road
is now undergoing repairs and develop
ment, and little while ago the train
was drawn into Beaumont, where it was
greeted by cheering multitude.

BY A DECISIVE VOTE.
Ehe Senate PASSES the Cuban Eeci-
prOcity Bill.

Washington, Dec. 17.-By the de-
cisive vote of 81 to IS the senate yes
terday passed the bill carrying into
effect the reciprocity treaty with
Cuba. The final vote came at the
close of day which was marked by
debate which while at all times ami
mated was never acrimonious. The
principal speeches were made by Mr..
Spooner for the bill and by. Mr..
Bailey against. Both senators were
subjected to frequent Interrupt
tionS.
In his remarks Mr.. Bailey referred
to the recent agreement of the demo-
cratic caucus to stand solidly on
party questions and warned the re-
publicans that in the future they
could not depend on struggling demo-
cratic votes in support of republican
party measures, regardless of
whether they were in accordance
with democratic doctrine.
The bill passed carries into execu-
ton the treaty between the United
States and Cuba which was ratified
last March. The treaty provides Tor
a reduction of 90 per cent. from the
rates of duty under the Dingley law
on all Cuban articles imported into
the United States and a varying re-
duction of from 20 to 40 per cent.
from the established Cuban duty on
articles imported into Cuba from
the United States. After the passage
of the Cuban bill the senate agreed
to the house resolution providing for
a holiday recess from December 10 to
January A.
