PASSES EXPENSE BILLS
The Appropriation Measures all Go
 Through

Washington-The senate passed the agricultural and the legislative, execu- tive and judicial appropriation bill. An amendment to the agricultural bill suggested by MT. Hepburn of Idaho caused an animated dicussion. It contemplated supervision of inter- state commerce so as to prevent the transfer of plants or seeds fraudulently marked from lone state to another. The amendment started a debate on patriotism. It was ruled out on a point of order. An agreem ent has been reached by Senators Foraker and Blackburns to take up the question of the confirmation of General Leonard Wood Monday next and continue it until disposed of.

ENGLAND'S NAVAL STRENGTH
Pleased by Purchase of Two Battle.
 ships From Chile and Argentine

London-During- discussion in the commons of the supplementary naval estimates amounting to SC, $50, GOO, the secretary of the admiralty, MT. Pretty man, replying to the criticisms of the government for purchasing the two Chilean battleships built in Great Britian but not delivered owing to the disarmament convention between Chile and Argentine, announced that the two vessels had been acquired at a cost of armored cruisers and said the government thereby would be enabled to curtail the construction program for 1904 laying down only two new battleships instead of three as prev iously intended. Had the Chilean ships passed into the hands of another power, the secretary continued, the balance of naval strength would have been seriously affected.

MUST HAVE OUTLET
Determined to Extend the Roads
 West


 Chlcago-George J. Gould is said to have come to the gconclusion that he must obtain Pacific outlet for his railroad system, or be bottled up by the Rock Island, Southern Pacific and Santa Fe. It is believed that MT. Gould's present visit to the southwest is intimately connected with this pro ject of securing Pacific coast outlet. In the southwest it is firmly beleived that this end willsbe accomplished by extension of the Texas and Pacific.
 It is understood that MT. Gould is personally kinspecting route which has been surveyed for an extension of the road from Sierra Banca to Fl Paso, distance of 100 miles. Once in Fl Paso, if he is not given satisfactory rights over the Southern Pacific to the coast, it is believed that he will extend his road to the extreme west.

PRESIDENT SIGNS AT MEETING OF
 CABINET
Roosevelt May Not Send to the Senate His Ap- pointments on Isthmian Canal Commission Be- fore the First of Next Week


 and the president has signed the proclamation making the treaty efec- tive.
 The exchange marks the. close of diplomatic negotiations looking to the requirement Ey the United States of canal rights on the ]sthmus, run ming back to the first quarter of the last century. What remains to be done now is nothing more than the adjustment of certain legal questions by the law officers of this government. The state department has fulfilled it's functions.
 The legal questions remaining to be settled are the pending litigation in France concerning the canal and the question whether under the terms of the Spooner act the O,000, 900 which was to be paid to Colombia can now be paid to Panama.
 It will be some time before these questions can be settled and mean while no money is likely to pass.
 From the state department Minister Bunau-Varilla, with the exchange copy of the treaty, drove to the cable office and rendered his resignation as minister from Panama to the presi- dent of the republic.
 M. Bunau- -Varilla expects to remain in this country for fortnight and will then go to Paris to look after private business. 1t is possible the Panama government will wish M. Bunau-V -Varilla to remain in charge of the legation until his successor, Dr. Aroseman, arrives. And if possible, the minister will consent to extend his mission.
 Replying to an inquiry why the Panama government was not to receive immediately, in accor dance with the terms of the treaty, the S10, 0,000,0 900 which this country has pledged to pay, the minister said:
 ''For two reasons. First, because 1 had informed the officials that were a check for this amount handed me 1 should be compelled to return it, be- cause have said all along that did not care to be connected in any way with the financial dealings arising from the canal sale, and further be- cause the government of Panama has not yet decided on the program for the investment of this sum and there fore would prefer that it should not be transferred for the present.
 "A second reason is the necessity of accomplishing certain legal formalities with the Panama Canal company, which the attorney general of the United States thinks should be settled before the payment of the purchase price. For this reason the preference of the Panama government that the money be held in trust here for the present is in harmony with the wishes of this government y
 Asked about the nature of the form alities, M. Bunau Varilla said:
 "These formalities arise from the special situation of the canal property which is now in the hands Of a re- ceiver and cannot be transmitted without authorization of the courts. The absurd theory of Colombia that certain parts of the contract between Colombia and Panama are still bind ing while others are not can cause only amusement even to the simple. Colombia has lost her sovereignty over che Panama canal and therefore is
