This Government Stands Firm for
Original Canal Treaty.

Washington, Sept. 3.-Additional
instructions have been cabled Mr..
Beaupre, the American minister at
BogOta, reiterating the position of
this government regarding the canal
treaty. The state department as
sumes entire responsibility for every
representation of Mr.. Beaupre to the
Bogota government concerning the
treaty, and his activity in this direc-
tion is heartily endorsed by the Presi-
dent and Secretary Hay.
Minister Beaupre's latest instruc-
tiOns advise him that President
Roosevelt will not enter into any en-
gagement with the Colombian gov
ernment which will hamper his scope
of action under the canal law. This
government will not indicate what
its course of action will be in the
event that the treaty is rejected.
