STAND OR FALL TOGETHER.
Panama Treaty as a Club for the
Statehood Bill

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 10
There is movement on among some
of the friends of the statehood bill in
the senate to couple the fortunes OF
that measure with those of the Pana-
ma canal treaty and make the ratifica-
ton of the one. depend upon the pas
sage of the other. The details of the
plan have not come to light fully, but
1t Is understood that the scheme is to
menace the treaty by delay until agree
ment to vote on the statehood bill
can be secured. One of the most prom
lnent statehood supporters on the Re-
publican side admitted that such Is
the tendency Many of the statehood
advocates on both sides say they will
not allow Senator Morgan to be forced
by test of physical endurance to
complete his speech in opposition to
the treaty before he is willing to con-
clude of his own accord.
In the executive session Senator
Quay sent UP some documents to be
read, among which was the constitu-
ton of Colombia. This step on his
part was taken as a notice that he
meant to assist in the opposition to
the treaty, and it was then recalled
that during yesterdays executive ses.
sion, and while Senator Morgan was
still speaking, Mr. Quay had suggested
the absence of quorum, thus helping
to make it easy for the Alabama sem
ator.
Anti-statehood Republican senators
said that Mr.. Quay's move would not
result in the passage of the statehood
bill, whatever mighf be it's effect upon
the treaty. They did not believe that
it would prevent ratification of the
treaty.
The senate held an evening executive
session. Mr.. Morgan went on with his
speech against the treaty until II
o'clock, when the senate took a recess
until IL o'clock tomorrow Senator
Morgan devoted his evening discourse
largely to the relation of the Colom,-
bian government to the Catholic
church. He quoted the concordat be-
tween the pope and the president of
the republic and asserted that the 18TH
milan government is practically die
tated by the Catholic church, and espe-
cially by the Jesuit order. This, he
said, would be true in the canal zone
as well as in other parts of the coun-
try, and he commended that if the trea-
ty should be ratified the United States
would find that 1t had entered into an
undesirable and un-American alliance.

Calender would use the fact to the
discredit of the executive. Monroe
said there was nothing to do but order
the money paid or positively decline
to do so.
If the later course were finally de-
termined upon, then some person
friendly to the Republican interests
sensible of Callender's services & mis-
fortunes, might advance him the mon
ely and take his order on the Govt. for
it when received. The amt might be
raised by subscription, tho not easily
here, and possibly if Calender knew
nothing of the motive he might be
quiet, especially if he believed the fine,
if reimbursed, wod. never come to him.
Be assured that the President
and yrSelf cannot be too circumspect
in case he comes to Georgetown in yr
conversations with him, for I think
nothing more doubtful than his future
political course. If from charitable
motives either of you advance him
money, it merits yr consideration
whether he ought to know from whom
it came. If he is not Can
honest mani every act of that kind will
be attributed to improper motives, and
perverted hereafter to the injury Of
the benefactor.'' - -
Fell in Love.
Presently Calender came to Wash
ington and confided everything to
Madison. He would be placated only
by an office and wanted to be post
master at Richmond. The mother of
his four children was dead, and he
had fallen in love with a Richmond
lady who was in a sphere above him.
He has f1attered himself" Madison
wrote to Monroe and probably has
been flattered by others, into per-
suasion that the emoluments and rep
utation of postoffice would obtain her
in marriage"
Madison met the man in no spirit of
temporizing, and talked to him plain
ly. An arrangement was made with
the treasury department to pay the
fine, but he was sent back to Rich
mond without hope of obtaining any
thing more He at once put his threats
into execution, formed a connection
with the Richmond Recorder, and
through it's columns poured forth a
flood of vituperation and abuse
against Jefferson and the Republicans;
and it is to the discredit of the Fed
eralists that they hailed the ISLANDERS
of the disappointed blackmailer with
encoura cement. The odd fact is that
he appears to have spared Madison
from any bespattering, although Mad
ison was the agent chosen to deal his
ambition it's death blow.

SPECIAL SESSION COMING.
In Case Canal and Cuban Treaties Are
Not Ratified,

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 49,.
President Roosevelt win call an ex-
traordinary session Of the senate of
the Fifty eighth congress unless both
the Panama canal and the Cuban reel
procity treaties are ratified at the pres
ent session. The president made this
declaration of his intention to several
senators today, and he made it as en-
phattcally and unequivocally as he was
capable Of making it. 1t is deemed
likely by officials of the adninistra-
tlon and by many senators that both
treaties will be ratified before March
4, but the necessity for their early
ratification is regarded by the presi-
dent as so urgent that in the event OF
the failure of either one or both at
the present session he will issue i'm
mediately his call for an extra session.
1t is said that there are grave reasons
of state why both treaties should be
ratified as soon as possible
