Washington, March 17.-Without dot ting an 'i'' or crossing a It" or with out changing a single punctuation mark the senate today voted to ratify the treaty with the republic of ColOm- bia for the construction of the isthmian canal. The vote for ratification was seventy-three in the affirmative to five in the negative.
 The senate was in executive session when the result was announced, so that only the senators themselves and q few confidential employees were present All of the senators announced them selves as gratifed to have the long struggle terminated. but none of them manifested his appreciation by cheers or handclapping. On the contrary, all of them seemed more concerned about getting away from the chamber than anything else. so that by the time that the senate could adjourn. which it dii almost immediately after the result vas announced. most of the senators had left their seats and some Of then had donned their hats and overcCats.
 The Gay was given up almost en- tirely to general debate on the treaty, and in addition to the set speeches made under the general agreement by Senators Morgan and Cullom. there were many short addresses and . rath- CT long speech by Senator Daniel of Virginia. The only party vote of the day was taken on the substitute for article 4, which was agreed upon by the democratic. caucus and had refer ence to the acquisition of territory in Central and South America by the United States.

BITUMNOUS TROUBLE

 Vania District.

Altoona. Pa. March 1.-The coal op- orators of bituminous district No. , submitted their ultimatum to the min CTS today. It was briefly an offer of an increase of 1212 per cent for pick min ing. an increase of II per cent for ma chine mining and Q nine-hour day at $2.70 per day for drivers.
 Other mine laborers are to receive a proportionate increase. The miner. promptly rejected the offer in refusing nine-hour day on a basis of s270 a day and insisting upon an eight-hour day on a basis of $2.56 a day on q tonnage Of 2S,C0O.0O0 tons annually The miners voted to relinquish $l, l,1O0,000 ir wages. annually to enforce the eight Eour day.

fifty-one ayes to twenty-five noes. When the senate adjourned at : o'clock most of the senators were firm in their conviction that it would be possible to conclude the called session tomorrow. and that when the senate next ad- journed the adjournment would be sine die
 This conclusion involved quite q general understanding that the Cuban reciprocity treaty could be much more speedily disposed of than has been con- siGered possible heretofore. There were some senators who expressed the Cpir- ion that more than one days time would be found necessary for the pre- sentation of arguments fer and against the agreement but canvass of the senate soon developed the fact that only the two Louisiana senators de- sired to be heard at length on the treaty at this time, and that they would not say as much as they would have said if the committee on foreign relations had not agreed that th- treaty should be submitted to congress for it's approval.
 This submission will be in the shape of a joint resolution at the next regular session Of congress. and as this can be discussed in open session all those who oppose the treaty consider that that time will be more o7porlune for argument than the present. as they then will be able to appeal to the coun- try at large as well as to the senate.
 Senator Foster of Louisiana was among those who expressed the opinion that it might be possible to recommend a final vote tomorrow.
 It is the general opinion that the treaty will be ratified by a safe ma

Memphis. Tenn. March 11.-The' flood situation in the portion of the Missis- sippi valley contiguous t0 Memphis is extremely critical tonight and reports Of loss Of life are at hand. It was thought at first that the break n tte lovee last night at Holly Hush. near Trice's Landing. would help matters b. relieving tnc pressure of the water and causing q fall at this point. In- stead Of this ihH break las complicated conditions by flooding a vast area in Arkansac across the Mississippi from Memphis and tonight a veritabie sea exists in the St. Francis and Missis- Gippi liver basins. From this territory a call for help nas gone up from per sons who have been surrounded in their homes and on high parts of the coun-
 try.
 / A few floating bodies have been found at various points by the boats. the number has not Vt been alarming.
 The St. Louis G San Francisco rail road runs through iae St. Francis country. but that company today an- nulled all trains. it's tracks being under water and the town Of Marion almost totally flooded and citizens using slliffs as their only means of travel. it is es- tinlated that several hundred persons are surrounded by water in the flooded Arkansas territory, and that the amount Of livestock lest is heavy.
 In Memphis the situation i.s grow ing worse each hour and the water is spreading to sections other than those which the conditions yesterday show flooded. The water pumping plant is endangered and a few inches more rise in the river must cause it to suspend.

NEW RAILROAD TO CLARION.
twill Open Large Timber Tract and
Coal Territory

Mention was made in THE STAR two
weeks ago that the contract for build
ing the new railroad from Summerville
to Clarion had been let to Col. James
A. Bennett, OF Greenville, and Daniel
Nolan, Of Reynoldsville. Since that
time we have learned some more facts
concerning tho road The Plttsburg,
Summerville & Clarion Railroad Co. is
the name OF the new company. II has
been chartered with a capital stock Of
Sl5O,000, which will be increased in a
short time to $500, 600 or 500, ,000 which
will represent the cost of the road
The organizers OF the company are
Charles +. Heidrick, OF Brookville,
president Of the company, II. NJ. Mat
son, Alfred Truman, John Q. Heidrick
Emmett Heidrick and Charles Corbett,
of Brookville, A. L. Cole, NJ. L. Nc
Creight and 9. II. Cole, of Dubois
Theo. L. Wilson, brother of Judge
Wilson, Of Clarion, and several Phila-
delphia parties.
Mr.. Heidrick says the building of
this line was a plan of his fathers, the
late Levi Heidrick, and his death pre-
vented him carrying it through.
The road runs from Clarion to Sum-
merville, distance of seventeen miles,
and connects with She p. r. r. at the
latter place. There will be four mile
branch from Strattonville to Mill Creek,
on the Clarion river, for the purpose of
opening up the Marvin & Rulofson tim
ber tract, which is said to contain nearly
one hundred million feet of virgin pine,
hemlock and other timber.
The road will open up 10000 acres
OF coal lands which is largely controlled
by the organizers OF the railroad COM
pany and the coal will be gradually de.
veloped along with the timber interests.
The road also opens up some of the
finest beds of fire clay in the state.
which will be Immediately developed.
1t is expected that the road will be
extended on through to Franklin. a dis
tance OF about twenty-three miles from
Clarion, In the course Of year or two.
which will make the coal tributary to
the road nearer the lakes than any
other bituminous coal in the state.
The road to Clarion and Clarion river
will be pushed as rapidly as possible
and completed before September lst,
1904.
There will be no stock for sale and no
bonds will be issued. The rights of way
have been secured 100 feet in width
practically the entire distance.

hopes Of making anything out Of
them will be blasted. Parents
who happen to have the means
with which to educate their chill
dren toe often imagine that wealth
is the whole thing, and they force
or attempt to force upon a child
studies they can never master,
when il they should instead place
them at some trade, a much more
blessing would result. The old
saying that it is impossible to
make a silk purse out of a sOw's
ear, is iOrcibly illustrated in this
question. II a boy is cut out for
a blacksmith there is no sense in
trying to make a lawyer or pro-
lessor Of him. There are great
duties imposed upon the parent,
but few OF them indeed rise to the

dren the proper attention and
thought.

The situation in Macedonia is
much as it has been in the past,
and that is bad enough to have
provoked war long ago but for
the fear that the conflict would re-
suit in general European warfare.
The Turkish rulers Cypress aud
barbarOusly mistreat the MacedO-
mans, and they respond by brig
andage, assassination and other
forms Of violence. But for re-
straint from the other powers,
Russia would undoubtedly absorb
the whole region with, very little
ceremony.
