FOR PANAMA CANAL
TREATY WITH COLOMBIA HAS
BEEN SIGNED.
WAS DONE AT WASHINGTON.
OBSTACLES THAT HAD THREAT
ENED WE'RE REMOVED.

At the Presidential Reception News
of the Signing Leaked Out-This
Was Premature by a Day-Friends
of the Canal Project Were Jubi-
lant-It Had Been Feared That the
United States Would Have to Turn
to Nicaragua - Price Agreed on
Was Not Announced.
Washington, Jan. 22.-The treaty be-
tween the United States and Colombia
for the construction of the Panama ca
nal by the United States was signed
to-day in this city.
The canal treaty was signed at Sec
rotary Hays house this afternoon, Mr..
Hay acting for the United States, and
DR.. Herran, the charge d'affaires of
Colombia, who had been specially CIV
en- full powers to negotiate the treaty,
signing in behalf of Colombia.
The treaty will have to go to the
Senate for ratification, and it is be-
lieved it will be transmitted to that
body tomorrow. 1t is stated that de-
tails of the agreement will not be
made public in advance of transmits
sion of the treaty to the Senate. 1t
is understood that Secretary Hay from
time to time consulted leading mem
bers of the Senate on the essential
features of the treaty he was nego-
tiating, so that it is believed it will
meet the approval of the Senate at
the present session.
70 TNroSiHnnfia1 Of 10
White House tonight the news that
the treaty between the two countries
at last was an accomplished fact leak
ed out, and later was confirmed author
itatively on inquiry in official quarters
1t had been intended not to make the
signature of the canal treaty public
until tomorrow, but the news appar-
emily was too good for some of the
friends of the canal to keep.
Fears had been entertained that CO.
lombia might not be willing to accede
to the wishes of the United States in
the matter. and that recourse to the
Nicaraguan canal project might be
forced on the government of the
United States. But this week events
took a more favorable turn and Co
lombia transmitted instructions and au-
thority to DIR. Herran,. it's representa-
tive in the United States. that made
possible conclusion of the long pend
ing negotiations.
The principal obstacle for some
time to the conclusion of the treaty
it is understood, has been the price the
United States were to pay in the shape
of cash payment, and by way of an
nual rental for the strip of territory
along each side of the canal right of
way. 1t could not be learned to-
night what was the price finally
agreed on.
Some time ago there was a hitch
over the question ~of the extent to
which control by the United States
over this strip of land should go, Co
lombia Directing on the ground that
the provisions requested in the treaty
by the United States would mean a
REIMBURSEMENT OF sovereignty by CO.
lombia over part of her territory, but
this matter was amicably adjusted, as
the lease of the strip of land in ques-
ton, the final result being practical
cession in perpetuity of the strip to
the United States for canal purposes
and incidental police control and pro-
lection of the canal right of way.

GET IN LINE.

Quite a number of prominent repub-
licans of Socorro county are having
quiet talks about the status of the
present political organization of the
party, says the San Marcial Bee. Con
trary to precedent and entirely at vari-
ance with fair play, the delegates who
constituted the late republican county
convention were not allowed to have a
voice in naming the members of the
new central committee of Socorro
county. 1t is believed that If IN organ
ization of any kind has been perfected,
it is absolutely without authority to
act for the party and that it is of the
utmost Importance for republicans to
make some move toward legal organi-
zation, to be in shape to avoid another
disastrous rout by the enemy. when
they line up for battle two years hence.

east that Arizona is only an insignif-
cant patch of desert in the southwest
ern corner of the union.

people of Arizona are so familiar with
the magnificent distances that they do
mot fully realize the vast extent of
the territory. 1t is interesting, there
fore, to note the great area of the sev
eral counties.
Apache county extends forty-eight
miles east and west and 240 miles
north and south.
The greatest length of Coconino
county is 1855 miles and its greatest
width 40 miles. 1t is larger than the

WORK FOR SINGLE STATEHOOD.

The Denver News, in a dispatch
airy 16, gives the following article re-
garding a plan to defeat the single
statehood for territories, and confirms
the suspicious entertained by Hon. F.
A. Hubbell on his return to the terri
tory from Washington:
One of the events in the statehood
battle billed will be the introduction
of a bill providing for the admission of
Arizona and New Mexico as one state
and also for the admission of Oklaho-
ma and Indian Territory combined.
This plan has been conceived by re-
publicans opposed to the omnibus
statehood bill after a vast amount of
scheming. They reason that it would
be a dangerous thing to do to go be-
fore the country in the next campaign
with the defeat of the omnibus state
hood bill charged to the republican
party on account of its having been
provided for in the national platform.
1t is believed by them that the demo
Gratis will urn against the plan of sin
gle statehood for the reason nat the
democratic platform expressly pro-
vides that Arizona, New Mexico and
Oklahoma shall each be admitted as
states. Therefore in case the outcome
Of the battle is no statehood for the
territories the omission can be charg-
ed to the democrats. Whether this
plan could work itself or not ear only
be c%onjectured. The omnibus state
hood cause is in a healthy condition
and its advocates IN TO the present
