NEW CANAL TREATY SIGNED.
Convention Between the United States
and Panama.

Convention Between the United States
| and Panama.
Washington, Nov. 20.-The new
canal treaty between the United States
and the new republic of Panama has
Minister Bunau-Varilla.
1t consists of between twenty-five
and twenty-five articles, but the main
points of the convention are contained
in the first six articles.
Panama cedes to the United States
whatever land or lands throughout
the republic of Panama this govern
| ment shall find desirable in connec-
tion with the building or operation and
maintenance of the canal.
In addition the treaty gives to the
United States absolute sovereignty
; over the canal strip, which, it is under
stood. comprises between eight and
ten miles on each side of the canal.
Within this zone the power Of the
United States is as absolute as if the
scene we're part and parcel Of this
country.
In general it may be said that while
the new treaty contains many of the
provisions of the failed Hay-Herran
treaty it is not based on that conven-
ton, but follows not only the spirit
but the letter of the Spooner act. Thus
instead of the lease for fixed period
of the canal strip this new treaty pro-
vides for perpetual grant of the
right of way to the United States, and
instead Of a complicated provision for
courts of mixed composition
American and half Colombian ad-
minister justice over the canal strip,
the new treaty permits this govern
ment to exercise the most complete
Jurisdiction thereupon.
Permission is also given the United
States to fortify the line and the ter
minals and it may police it with
troops

BoNDHoLDERs OBJECT.
Want Panama to Assume Share of
Colombian Debt.

London, Nov. 2O.-The council Of
foreign bondholders has received a
communication from Amsterdam say
ing that the chamber of commerce
there will request the government Of
The Netherlands not to recognize the
republic of Panama until some ar
rangement is arrived at whereby the
new republic assumes an equitable

the government to any specific course
of action. Further communications
are expected, but so far as the bond

CUBAN RECIPROCITY BILL.
Final Days Debate on Measure in the
House.

House.
Washington, Nov. 20.-The final
days debate on the Cuban reci-
procity measure in the house was
opened by Mr.. Broussard (Dem.,
La). He opposed the measure
and said it was not in line with Demo
cratic tariff reform The trust, he
said, would profit by the reduction of
the tariff on sugar and no benefits
would accrue to the consumer.
Mr.. Hepburn (Rep., Ia) followed,
stating at the outset of his remarks
that he would vote for the bill, but
with reluctance. He said he was not
one of those who believed we owe
Cuba anything. This country had
spent $3O0,OO0,O0O or $4O0,OOO,000 and
sacrificed many lives that Cuba might
be relieved from oppression.
Mr. Hepburn said he believed in Re-
publican reciprocity-th reciprocity
of Mckinley. In this connection he
quoted from the speech made by the
late president at Buffalo.

In this connection the suggestion
made before the "big nine" confer
ence by Professor F. S. Jones Of Min
nesota that the football season in the
west be made to conclude with the
Saturday before Thanksgiving seems
to have meat in it. Thanksgiving
games are not regarded as necessary
in the east and they should not be
regarded as indispensable in the west.
Colleges are not in session ON
Thanksgiving, that is a day when
every student having a home naturally
gravitates to it and must either miss
his family reunion and big annual din
ner or one of the big championship
games. There is, therefore, dissatis-
faction either OH the part Of the stu
dents families, the students, or the

ever material may be sent from

known as the worlds Olympic collie

New Haven, Conn, Nov. 30
Yale's athletic leaders feel that a
stadium like that at Harvard is their
manifest destiny in the grand stand
lime. But they see NO chance OF real
izing 1t at present.
The Yale football stands, erected
five years ago, already show signs of
decay in spots and were repaired this
fall A movement to secure a perma-
nent stadium will be set on foot as the
logical solution Of the problem. The
agitation for prominent permanent
stands has received a setback thru the
failure Of the Yale baseball officials
to obtain the funds they sought to
erect a new cage for winter practice.
For two months Captain Winslow
and Manager Reed have been sound
ing wealthy Yale alumni for cash con-
tributions, but without success. The
complaint heard Is that money is too
tight in Wall street." It is so late now
that a cage cannot be secured this
season.
Yale's cage is the smallest Of any
American college of more than 200
students. The baseball association
had planned for cage with an iron
frame and extensive skyliglt.

I
made by Wisconsin for the game last

1t is doubtful if another Thanks

the apparent certainty that the ex-
pertinent of last Thursday will never
be repeated is dwelt on by T. S. An
drews Of the Evening wisconsin, as
kfollows: s - .tt e.sms =
| The playing Of the Wisconsin Minnesota
game at Madison yesterday after 1t had
been scheduled for Milwaukee early in the
ason, must have brought home the fact
to the badger football authorities that the
proper place to have played the game was
Milwaukee. 1t was the biggest game Of
the season and the climax Of the football
season, still there were less than 5000 peo-
pie In attendance at Madison, the home of
the university and in a city that pretends
to have nothing but the success Of the
university eleven at heart. Then Of the
5000 people present 500 were from Mime
a polis and fully another 400 from adjoining
towns Of Madison. Had the game been
played in Milwaukee there Is not the
slightest doubt that there would have been
from 5000 to 10000 people present and
probably nearer $4,000. Manager Barnard
Of the Minnesota team stated that there
were fully $500 fans in the twin cities
who would have come to Milwaukee to see
the game, but they declined to go to Madi-
son, knowing that a big crowd could not
be accommodated there.
| The football management fully realizes
now that the big cities are the places to
play the big games in, that is if they want
to come out ahead on the deal. It is safe
to say that the Wisconsin team did not
make any money this season and it is a
lucky thing that they did not have to pay
for the erection of the bleachers at Randall
field. The people Of Milwaukee are not
going to beg for big game next season,
but if the faculty members at Madison
are wise there will be no hesitancy on their
part next season in scheduling big game
for the cream city and holding to the
agreement.

Chances Are That the Wisconsin

While the eastern colleges have
demonstrated that big cities are not
necessarily the places in which to play
big football games, Michigan and
Wisconsin are having difficulty in
proving that Madison and Ann Arbor
are the proper places to hold Thanks

This is not so true Of Michigan,
where there was a goodly crowd to
see the Minnesota-Michi Thanks

heavy frost which the management of
the Wisconsin team experienced be-
cause 1t insisted on playing the Min
nesota-Wisconsing game at Madison in
stead of Milwaukee would indicate
that big Thanksgiving games in small
towns are not going to be popular in
the west.
From financial point Of view even
the chances of winning a game on a
lucky home gridiron are not to be
weighed against the big money loss
