THE PANAMA CANAL.
Talk of New Rspub.lc to 0i--- Canal
 Rights.

Talk of New Rspub4lc to 0i--- Canal
 Rights.
 Meshinston Special to St. Louis RepuS-
 It was evident to see thst Doctor Her ran takes an exceedingly gloomy view of the situation. He has worked hard to negotiate a treaty with this govern meTit and to obtain ratification at Bogota. He feels that he has failed in the latter effort unless some unexpected turn should be given public opinion in his country.
 This, he thinks, is not likely, in view of the hostility aroused against the Unit ed States through Colombia by the talk. apparently emanating from ohlctal cir- cles at Washington. to the effect that this government will go ahead and ne- gotiate a treaty with a new Republic of Panama, in case that State secedeS from Colombia and offers to give the Washington government satisfactory canal concessions.
 Talk of this character. while it may have found lodgment recently in the inn aKination of officials of the administra- tion, had its real origin in the fertile brains of the French Panama Canal Company. s
 Anticipating months ago that the treaty was doomed. William Nelson Cromwell and his agents let fall the strong hint that a movement was afoot on the isthmus to secede from Colombia the day the treaty was rejected, organ lEe an independent state, quietly assume the right of disposing of the French Pan anna Canal Company's option and offer to the United States the right to con- Btruct across the isthmus a canal under the conditions set forth in the Hay-Her- ran treaty.
 One of Mir Cromwelrs Meutenants. shortly after a visit to the President last June. went so far as to say that agents of this fictitious Republic of Panama

were even then on their way to their country to bc on the spot to ask for recognition for their new State tho mos ment the treaty was rejected.
 This same lieutenant asked erodeRee for the statement that this subject had . short time before been serious sub- ject of consideration st e cabinet meet. ing and that Secretary Hay and ANtor- ney General Knox had taken tho .geound that this government would Do entirely justified in recognizing this new etate un- der the circumstances and could. HRdeF the terms of the Spooner aot. negotiate a treaty with Panama provided that State had control of the isthmian route, t
 The remarkable familiarity shown bY MT. Cromwell and his ileutonanta with the plans of this incipient Republic soon convinced officials here that tho Panama Canal Company was at the bottom of the movement. and would go to any eBa treme to stir up trouble on the isth- mus in case the treaty was rejected,
 Both Secretary Hay and Attorney deh- eral Knox. however, have refused to stand for the absurd abatement that they were "fn for an isthmlan revolution, !" as 1t was put by one of those in the eon- fidence of Mfr. Cromwell.
 Pan-American diplomats at Washing ton declare that If tho Washington geV- ernment should ever lend itself to the abetting Of e revolution in tho State of Panama. tho whole Of South and Central America would be reused to Indignat ton, and the deep-rooted prejudice against the United States. which has only re. gently given way in many of those eoun. tries to a frlondiier feeling. would burst into flame.
 Conservative onlciais of Washington ae6ePt very positively that the American people will not stand for any such jFl. tornaddiing in the affairs of Colombia aa is contemplated Ly the scheme of Will liam Nelson Cromwell and tho other members of tho Panama Canal compa- ny's cause.
 They point out that 1t would be a vio- lation Of the treaty of isto with New Granada by which this government guaranteed oaco and for ali time tho perfect neutrality of the before-men- honcd i1thrrus. with the view that the free transit from the one to the other sea may not be interrupted or embnr- rasSed in any future times whlie this treaty exists" and also ''the rights of sovereignty and property which Now Granada (now Colombia1 has and pos sessee over the territory (Panama),
 The present situation appears to com pletely conform to all the predictions of Senator Morgan in his persistent and vigorous contest against the Panama scheme. He opposed the ratification of the treaty because he said that 1t was only continuation of trouble for this country. and he insisted continually that

Young Man and Woman is Suicide
 and Murder.


 Cleveland. O., Aug. i9.-The names of the alleged murderer and his victim in last nights double tragedy was learned today. The man Is William Leutbeeher. 2s years old, of No 146S Superior Street; the girl. Martha Faehnrich, p years old, of No. weimer Street.
 It is now generally believed that Leut- becher shot Mss Faehnrich while they were out for a walk, and then committed suicide. The cause given for the tragedy Is the opposition of the Faehnrich family to Leutbecher's attentions to Martha, he having been told to cease his attentions recently and give up any hope that he might have of marrying. her. Miss Faehn- rich was a clerk in her brothers grocery, and 1t is supposed that Leutbecher called upon her last night aAd induced her to go for a walk. While in a lonely locality and not a great distance from the girls home the tragedy which put an end to two lives was enacted.
