Washington. February g. Senator
Morgan today introduced a resolution
asking the secretary of the navy TO
supply to the senate copies OF any cor
respondence that may have occurred
between naval officers of the United
States and persons on shore in Colom-
bia during the recent stay of the amer
lean vessels in Colombian waters.
Mr.. MOrgan's purpose is to ascertain
whether there is truth in the report
that American naval officers made an
oner of SS.OOO,OOO to the revolutiOnists
to desist. He calls attention 20 the fact
that the first treaty which the United
States sought to negotiate with Colom-
bia for the construction OF the cana,
called for S7.OOO,COO, whereas the treaty
really negotiated calls for $1O,UOO,O OOG,
the difference being the amount in
