a. Nothing Doing at Night.
r Washington, Sept. 23.When the
state department elosed at 4fo'clock
Tuesday twas agreed that the Pana,
ma canal treaty was dead, although
eight hours yet remained during which
the Colombian government might have
taken Affirmative action on it. Nothing
was received concerning the canal
treaty from Minister Beaupre at Bo-
gotta, nor by Mr.. Herran, the Colon
bian charge d'affaires. A report is cur
rent here that the Colombian congress
in secret session has clothed Presi,
dent Marroquin with full power to ne
gotiate a treaty. If this report should
turn out to be true, President Mar
roquin, who is counted a friend Of the
treaty, could proceed untrammeled by
the fear of future reckoning with his
congress. In any event President
Roosevelt must now take. the next
step. He can elect to proceed under
the Spooner. act and take up the
Nicaraguan route or he can allow the
matter to drift for the present in the
hope that a way may yet be found
to straighten out the present difficulty
in the path of the Panama route.
Contrary to his custom during the
summer, the acting secretary of state
remained in the cl,y today in order to
be on hand to act promptly on any in.
formation which might come from Mr..
Beaupre regarding canal matters at
Bogota. UP to $3.50 o'clock, however.
nothing had been received. DR.. Her
ran, the Colombian charge, also waited
anxiously for news from his govern
ment, but was disappointed. Colon
bia, it is known, is anxious to keep
alive the negotiations.
One interesting feature with the leg.
islative situation in Colombia is the
fact that the terms of one third Of the
members in the senate, numbering
nine, will expire on the goth
Of next July, when the life of the pres
ent congress will end. These nine
senators, it is said, are aerse to the
canal treaty. The hope of the advo-
Gates of the. treaty will be to elect
senators in their places who are favor
able to the convention. M

having apparently been created, owing
to a misunderstanding regarding the

The governments position is rem

up by the revolutionary committees, is
persistently endeavoring to force the
governments hand and provoke hos
