Steering Committee Looking Around for
Means Of Worrying the @. O. p.
Washington, Nov. 10-The Demo
cratic steering committee of the sen
ate was in session for two hours, the
greater part of which time was de-
voted to consideration of the situation
on the isthmus. A number Of senators
expressed the opinion that the admin
istration had not been unfriendly to
nor ignorant of the secession move
ment from it's beginning, but it was
decided to wait until there is further
light.
Some senator's expressed the opinion
that the mass of the people are so
anxious to secure a canal that many
persons would even indorse a rev0lu-
tion ON the isthmus if it should prove a
means of securing one. Morgan was
before the committee for quite time
and advocated vigorous policy of
criticism.
The steering committee also dis
cussed the policy to be pursued with
reference to the proposed measure put
ting in force the Cuban treaty. 1t was
apparent that majority of the Demo
cratic senator's would oppose the bill.

Situated as Cuba Is it would not be
possible for this country to permit the
strategic abuse of the plan by any for

reason that certain limitations have

No Hostility to Colombia.
1t was learned that the instructions
cabled the commanding officer Of the
Boston were quite specific, and thus
constitute a modification of the mole
general instructions previously sent
him. The purpose in sending the spe-
