captured there was little prospect of
his eve reaching a trial court. Con.

thieves themselves and often stood

were not allowed to escape on their
way to jail they managed to break
out soon after being confined or es-

trial. Furthermore, fully 300 miles

N TREATY OFF.

The time limit for the ratification
of the Panama canal treaty having
passed II remains to be seen what
the next move will be. The Spooner
amendment to the Isthmian canal
treaty provides that if Colombia fails
to agree upon a satisfactory treaty
for the construction of a canal at Pan.
ANA. the president shall, within a res.
sonable time, open negotiations for
the construction of a canal upon the
Nicaraguan route. AS congress will
soon assemble It is not likely that the
president will take any action before
that time. Is there any assurance
that this country would have easy
sailing in it's negotiations with Mica.
ragua? There is still a good chance
that the Panama route will be the one
finally secured. There is talk OF a
revolution in Panama which would
probably result in independence from
Colombia. In that case negotiations
would be renewed with every pros.
pect of success. But, of course, 1t will
not do to depend upon revolutions to
determine the fate of the canal. Just
now the commencement of work on
this great enterprise seems a long
way off, yet it is reasonable to believe
that some way will be found out of the
difficulty during the coming winter

nominated Seth Low for mayor. This
action unites the best citizens of the
great metropolis under the banner of

approval have been sounded in regard
TO the denomination of Mr.. Low on
the part OF some who doubt his
strength, but it must be conceded that
many evils have been corrected under
his administration. mention Of which
have been made in these columns.

be the chief fault finder and there are
some who are unkind enough to be.

with him; that he a ambitious to
lead the reform forces himself.
While Mr.. Low may not have all
OF the forces that count for success

choice OF the regular Democracy in
naming a leader and the number OF
tickets in the field. The fight will be
