Washington. Jan. 3o.-(Special. .)-"There sits Pierpont Morgan looking down upon that part of his possessions which we wait upon as the United States Senate" obselved a newspaper man this after noon. indicating by Jerk of his head the king of the princes of finance, sitting in the reserved galleries of the Senators. listening to the tiresome tales of tine seemingly saintly virtues of the dead McMllan. whilst down below in his sen- atorial glory sat the notle Alger, happy, in deaths abundant kindness.
 King Pierpont was there with his great nose, his rugged -uddy face, lined like a map of the seat of war in Venezuela, and lis crown of white hair, every hair rep resenting the equivalent of a toiler's life- time fortune. listening to frlsome eulo- gies upon the unreplying dead. and per- haps wondering if the Senators he Is said to own would so speak of him when his time shall be called.
 A Striking Scene.
 It was a striking scene. A little while before another Morgan of fame. he of Alabama, had in a sense served notice upon a committee of the Senate that he would not stand for King Pierpont's mon- ey power Panama Canal treaty with Co., lombia.
 Senator Morgan took up the entire time of the Foreign Relations Committee, of which in happier days he was chairman urging his resolution of inquiry as to the credentials of Senor Herran, the Colon bian diplomat who signed the treaty In behalf of his unstable Government |, tottering in the stress of a revolution that has already lasted longer than our war between the States.
 While this may be- as the White House organ says 1t is. an attempt on the part of the Alabama Senator to secure stay Of proeseaings ssity yis agsnAral allsy aao6pssa as notice or ngnt against the treaty as framed. in accord with Senator Morgan's statement of week ago to The Adver- tiser, that rather than see the treaty In Its entirety ratified he would prefer no isthmian canal whatever.
 But the Beginning.
 At the moment he is making his fight on his resolution of inquiry respecting Senor Herran. but that Is but the beginning, and If Senator Morgan succeeds in de- feating that treaty, he will have done his greatest service to the American peo- pie. His majesty, King Pierpont, and all his retinue of princes of the money power favor no canal at all. Confident that the Panama Canal Is impossible of construc- tion, or that if science could overcome superhuman obstacles. 1t would require a generation of time and many hundreds of millions of the peoples money, the king and his court favor the treaty.

 saddler Reinstated.
 Former Secretary of the Navy Herbert and Congressman Richardson of Ala bama today succeeded in having Naval Cadet Howard Saddler of Sheffield, a four year man. reinstated as of sound physi- cal conditions.
 This is the second experience of Saddler in this respect. he having been last year re-inStated after being rejected by a medical examining board.
 Saddler having completed his statutory course. came up for physical examina- ton for the usual two years cruise The doctors rejected him. Today Surgeon General Admiral Rixey, McKiniey's phy- sician, personally examined the young Alabamian and re-instated him. He is 22 years old and has fine record.
