Question, but Set No Time.

Question, but Set No Time.
Washington. Feb. 5.-Senator Cullom. in
executive session of the Senate to-day,
again urged the Democrats to permit the
Panama Canal treaty to come to vote
at an early date.
This in effect was agreed to by the DEM
ocrats, but they would not bind them
selves to any date. Senator Cullom asked
that a time be fixed within the next two
weeks and argued that there was nothing
to be gained by delay. as it was evident
there was little more to be said on either
side for or against the treaty.
Few Senators row want to be heard and
all. thought that within a week or ten
days a vote may be reached without the
formality of binding the Senate to any
specific date.
