ADMINISTRATION POLICY DEFINED.
Has No Intention of Paying Colombia
Anything or of Going to The Hague.

Washington. Jan. 13.-1t can be stated
with authority that the administration
does not contemplate paying 81 out OF the
United States Treasury to Colombia on ac-
count of the secession OF Panama. Nor
will it go before The Hague tribunal as a
party to any proceedings growing out of
that secession. 1t is stated that to do
either of these things would be to commit
the administration to an admission that II
had been guilty Of wronging Colombia
On the other hand. it IS again announced
that the United States Government stands
ready to do everything In its power to
bring about an amicable understanding be-
tween Colombia and Panama.
1t may be that Panama Will consent to
20 before The Hague tribuntl with Co
iombia and allow that tribunal to decide
whether or not Panama shall make any
concessions to Colombia on account of the
severance of political ties. 1t Is certain
that the United States Government would
look with favor on the assumption by
Panama of some small liability to make
good the heavy loss which Colombia has
suffered
The Government is even willing to 60
to the extent OF guaranteeing the per-
formance by Panama of any duty and
obligation she may assume toward Colom-
bia. and exchanges on this basis between
interested parties are now in progress.

and such policy must inevitably involve
us in war. not only with the South Amer
lean nations themselves, but with Euro
rean nations.
In conclusion, Mr.. Carmack said that
while he was for the canal. he could not
vote for the treaty, because he could not
indorse the lawless acts of which 1t is the
fruit.
When Mr.. Carmack took his seat. Mr.
Aidrich asked what practical system Mr..
Defeat the treaty" responded Mr. Car
mack.
Then what?"
Build the Nicaragua Canal"
All responded Mr.. Aldrich, that Is
the milk in the cocoanut."
Mr.. Aldrich proceeded to say that he
was in favor of building the canal and
building it now.
SPOONER TO THE DEFENSE.
Mr.. Spooner replied to Mr.. Carmack.
saying that he had felt regret at hearing
the criticisms of the President who had
registered an oath in heaven to discharge
his duties. Mr.. Carmack had made sin
lister and unsupported statement when he
said that this country had begun a sys-
tematic encroachment on the rights OF the
South American Republics. No man had
stood mo-e consistently for those Repub-
lies that had President Roosevelt. and Mr.
cent IN the Venezuelan difficulty.
No President in our history had stood
more stanchiy for the Monroe Doctrine.
he said. He hoped the Southern Republics
would turn deaf ear to any individual
pfonunclamento to the effect that the
nited States could ever interfere in their
af1airs except in their interest
As the author of the Spooner act the
Speaker said. he wished to express the
opinion that the law had not been violated
by what the President had done;
Inc law. he said. recognized the SUI
periority OF the Panama route because 1t
was shorter and because it was susceptible
OF being made a sea-level canal. Not only
the business. but the defense of the coun-
Try demand canal through which our
Warships could pass without going through
locks. Hence the choice of a line which
could be converted into sea-level route.
CLASHES WITH TILLMAN.
After reviewing the events relating to
the canal negotiations, Mr.. Spooner asked
whether any Senator would. under the
circumstances. have turned his back on
Panama so long as there was bill pend
Ing in the Colombian Congress. and he
put the question especially to Mr.. Till
man. who was on his feet.
The latter said he would have entered
into negotiations with Nicaragua and
would have reported back to Congress for
further instructions. He would have said
to Colombia:
You are a NANCY lot; get off the face
of the earth; We'll take the country and
build the canal"
The remark caused an outburst Of
laughter both on the floor of the Senate
and in the galleries.
After a minutes pause. Mr.. Spooner
said that while he could not accept the
Senator's language he congratulated him
on coming to the Presidents position.
Mr. Tiliman called attention to Mr..
Spooner's hesitation. and the latter re-
piled that II was because he was thinking
how thankful we should be that we
haven't a President who would use TO
any nation such language as the Senator
from South Carolina has used.

 When the city of Columbus builds its waterworks system, Chattanooga river water will be used only as a last resort. The people are opposed to using this water if any other practicable system can be built for the money already ap- propriated, and to be had, for this pur- pose. The water commissioners are now making a thorough investigation of the artesian water situation. In case artesian water Is not obtained the mer- its of various proposed creek systems will be carefully investigated.
 There are now in round numbers 10000 bales of cotton in Columbus warehouses. This cotton, now worth about $750,000, would have been worth $1,000.000 a few weeks ago.

 There is now a renewed agitation for the further improvement of the Chatta- hooche river and Apalachicola harbor at It's mouth, the point being made that the present government appropriations are not large enough. It is urged that delegations from Columbus and Apa- lachicola go before the rivers and har- bors committee of congress at wash- ington.

 Besides stating that he did not worK his convicts on Thanksgiving day this contractor. whose name Is withheld from the public, assures the Board Of Inspectors that the convicts are to rest Christmas and Saturday preceding. Moreover, an elaborate dinner is to be served to them.
 The correspondence which in this way shows the status of the Alabama convicts is as follows:
 Hon. J. M Carmichael. Montgomery,

This was not the case with us We gave them that day as the law requires and a good dinner. notice also from calendar for December 1904 that Christmas comes on Sunday.

AFTER ARTISAN WATER.
Columbus People AnxiousIy Watching
 Work of Drill.

Columbus, Ga, Dec. 7.-(Special)- The drill which 1t is fondly hoped will pierce at great depths bold under ground streams, thereby giving Colum- bus an ample supply of artesian water, started on its downward trip this morn ing. L. B. Clay, the expert employed by the city to sink this. the first of a series of test wells, says that under normal conditions he can bore 250 feet ed.
 After the drill had travelled thirty feet China-ward this morning it struck rock. It is supposed that this is only a boulder. as 1t is believed that the rock which is supposed to underlie the city is at a greater depth. This Is located in the extreme southern part
