strated by the act authorizing such
a canal received almost unanimous
support from members of both par
ties. The minority believes tat
the treaty negotiated by Secretary
Hay requires several amendments
in order to bring it into harmony
with the act of Congress under
which it was negotiated and to safe
guard the interests Of the United
States. Article % is in obvious
violation of that provision of the
Spooner act which provides that
the United States shall acquire the
right to police, protect and govern
the strip through which the canal
shall pass in way that obviously
implies sovereignty. These facts
have been presented to the republi-
can leaders and some of them appre-
ciate the force Of the democratic con
tentions. What their course will
be ] am not prepared to predict.
~
Just after Mr.. German made the
above statement, the republican
steering committeehe meeting TO
consider the program for the re-
mainder OF the special session and
determined to ratify il possible, the
Panama canal treaty at it stands.
They further decided TO accept the
amendment offered by Senator Bacon
in the committee on Foreign Rala-
tions and adopted by thatcommittee
which provides that the Cuban
treaty shall not go into effect until
it has been approved by the Con-
gress. An agreement has been
reached between the leaders Of both
parties to read thecanal treaty today
for amendment, all speeches being
limited to fifteen minutes duration,
and to permit two hours debate,
followed by a vote tomorrow. The
Cuban treaty will then be taken up
in earnest and, as amended, will
be ratified and adjournment i'm
mediately afterwards. II is deemed
probably that the special session
viii adjourn the latter part Of this
week, although no definite decision

Senator Aldrich Is believed 10 be
preparing to urge bis financial bill,
with possibly some notifications,
next winter. He has obtained the
consent 81 the Senate 10 call his
committee in session during the re
cess and, as il is known that he does
not contemplate any tariff legisla-
ton. 1t is generally conceded that
the Fowler currency bill, even IL
it passes the House, will be reject
cd by the Senate. The upper cham
Der, at least in SO far as the majority
is concerned, is unalterably oppos
ed to any form OF fiat currency,
which is what the Fowler bin pro
vides for. An extension of the bank
ing system Of currency alonp i'--.s
ae,raani-i Vno national bankers
may be expected from the Aldrich
committee and doubtless a serious
effort to accomplish such enactment
next session will be made.

The President now contemplates
starting on his hunting tour on April
9Th. No dates have been positively
made as it has been impossible to do
SO without knowing when Congress
would adjourn, with one exception.
The President has promised TO be
present at the dedicatory exercises
of the Saint Louis exposition. Mr.
Roosevelt says that he is not going
to Colorado with any set purpose
OF hunting but will, of course, take
his guns. He will visit the Yellow

TO find relief from the strenuous life
and the crowds which will meet
him at all points farther east.

Captain Mitchell, accom- panied by Officers Franco and Witt, proceeded to the New Commercial saloon on North Stanton street. opposite the $. P. depot, and while Officer Witt went to the rear door Captain Mitchell, and officer Franco stepped into the saloon and saw Brown at the bar throwing dice. The man presented a formid- able and dangerous appearance. Cap tain Mitchell at once drew his pistol and com manded Brown to throw up his hands, which he readily did. He was then taken to the police station and d search of his person disclosed q clipping from the Tombstone paper in which was an account of the preli minary hearing and subsequent trial of Brown and his pal Stevens.

FUGITIVE CAPTURED.
Leader of Clifton RObber Band Taken
 into Custody by Police.

Jose Moreno. the leader of the gang who robbed the Bazaar store of this city about a month ago of jewelry and other yalua5ies amounting tO about $500, was captured a Fl PasO last week Ev Deputy Sheriff John Parks, assisted by local officers. Nr. Parks had trail ed the robber tO Juarez, where he was offering the stolen goods for sale. Mir. Parks waited on the American side several days for his man to come over, and vas finally rewarded for his patien~e. Abe Goodwin, manager Of the Bazaar store. who was then at Bis bee, was telegraphed for, and when he arrived at Fl Paso he recognized some pieces of jewelrv found on the person Of the roSber a. having been stolen from his store.
 Mir. Parks arrived in Clifton Satu-- day night with his prisoner who was confined in the tunnel until Tuesday when be was given a hearing before Justice BOyles, and bound over to ap- pear before the grand jury.
 Three of the gang were captured in Clifton three weeks ago. and are now at SolOmonville to await the action Of the grand jury. Moreno was the leader of the gang, and after the rob- bery he got away with all Of the most valuable part of the plunder, and when his pals were pinched. he refused 10 come to their rescue, which caused them to feel bitter toward him, and from them the officers secured des- cription Of Moreno, which led to his capture. which is most satisfactory piece of business. It takes q pretty smooth one to get away from Johnny Parks
