had been put out of action by the

AS the little parties in the two tops

threw his men on the yard. and as the
smoke cleared away the astonished
British saw the Americans rushing to-
ward them.
The first and second men were shot
down and fell to the deck of the Sera-
pis. The third. a gigantic man, by
desperate leap gained foothold in
Tanning and another had joined him
over the futtock shrOuds. Two men
took the defenders in the rear by way

carried everything before it. The Eng

PANAMA QUESTION.
Senate Discusses Bill for Gov
eminent Canal Zone.
(Ry Associated Press. }

WASHINGTON. April 1.-THE Senate
devoted the entire day to the conslaera-
tion of the bill for the government canal
zone. and Mr. Morgan again occupied tho
floor tho greater part Of the day. me
discussion related principally to the de-
tails of governing the canal, put some
consideration also was given 10 Mr.
Hale's amendment requiring the use Q!
American bottoms in the shipment or
canal supplies to the zone. Inc consluer
alton of the bill was not completed.
Mr. Morean's resolution calling on the
Attorney-G eneral for information, con-
corning the contract for tho purchase OF
the Panama Canal was referred TO the
Committee on Inter Oceanic Canals over
the protest Of its author. The canal bill
was taken up and Mr.. Morgan moved 70
strike out section contaiHiH1 the Dill OF
rights OF the Consultations. His motion
was voted down. Mr.. Bacon took ex-
ception to the provision IN section 10 OF
the bill giving tho commission authorlty
10 grant pardons for offcnscs IN the ca1lalH
zone, saying that power could not %
constitutlonally taken from the President
Mr.. Iilttrcdgo said that "the power of
tho President to pardon offcnscs COM
mitted In this zone does not exist.
Mr.. Bacon expressed surprise at this
statement, saying that If carried into era
feet # would have the effect Of limiting
n broad grant by the Constitution TO the
President. and that the power was one
that could not be delegated 1T is, he
said "a very radical proposition. nave
always thought that the power OF me
President was not only u1hoAted. but
exclusive, and that 1t extended to any
offense within tho Federal Jurisdiction.
1Io added that the powers OF the COM
mission should DO limited to repr'eves.
Mr., Hoar contcnded that tho power to
pardon was not exclusively vested IN the
President. A general debate ensued ana
was participated In by Messrs, Platt, OF

Depew's Roorback.

IN his address as permanent chairman
at the opening OF the Republican State
Convention Of New York, Senator Depew
said:
Happily for our party, we are not
waiting to be told what we are to believe
by the national convention. nor Is our
candidate composed as yet, of inchoate
qualities. Every Republican In this land
knows in what we believe and. knows for
whom he is going to vote"
That was intended to be noble tribute
to Republicanism and a contemptuous
fling at Democracy. But II did not hit
the mark in either direction or course
Republicans know In advance that they
nrs going to stand for. They know this
because the Republican party is a close
policy from which 1t never departs. That
policy Is a strong centralized government
conducted IN the interests OF certain
classes, who in the main compose the
Republican party. 1t is easy enough for
party SO constituted, for party which
Is run in the interest of a homogeneous
class, to define It's policy and stick to It,
II is also easy for the Republicans to
determine in advance that Mr.. Roosevelt
IS 10 be their nominee. They will nOmi-
nate him because they cannot afford tC
do otherwise. He has been their leader
for the past few years and for them Ia
lay him aside and take up some one else
would be to dseredit the Republican adj
ministra ton, 1t Is clearly a case of mot

siderable number of Republicans. Most al
