rur ratifcation Of the Panama canal

THE ratification of the Panama canal
treaty Yesterday in the Senate by a vote
ot 66 to IA was Immediately preceded by
an order from the War Department for
the Third Regiment to proceed at once
10 the Isthmus. The third move In the
chain of canal plans was the introduction
in the Senate by Mr.. Kittridge OF bill
TO proyide for the temporary government
of the territory and the protection OF the
canal works. Senator Morgan fought
the treaty to the end and several other
democrats spoke against the measure or
explained their votes in favor of it. Then
every amendment was voted down, IN
Guiding those formerly proposed by the
foreion relations committee, but which
were withdrawn to save sending the
treaty back to Panama. Senator hoai
and all the other republicans voted ioI
the treaty or were paired in favor ana
thew were Joined by fourteen democrats
who voted, while two others we're paired,
in favor of ratification. True to then
view of the situation, fourteen demo-
Gratis followed the lead of Senator Cor
man and voted against the treaty. There
were seventeen of them in all opposed
to the measure, but three of them,
Messrs. Martin, Of Virginia Overman,
of North Carolina, and McLaurin, OF
Mississippi, were paired against It,
Those who voted against the treaty were
Messrs. Bailey, Bate, Blackburn, Car
mack, Culberson, Daniel, Dubois, Cor
man, Morgan, Newlands, Patterson,
Pettus, Teller and Tillman. These gen
tIemen favor the construction OF an
isthmian canal, but, like thousands they
represent, they were ayerse to the use OF
dishonorable means to accomplish that
end. as has been the case in the dis
memberment of Colombia, friendly
sister republic.

large portion of the day in sightseeing,
and last night lectured under the auspices
of the Y. NJ. G. A. on "The Value of an
Ideal"
In an interview Mr.. Bryan denied that
he is backing w. r. Hearst for the Pres

lar individual. "Hearst is among the

as compared with the availability of
others. Those who have been fighting me
think they can hurt him by accusing
him of having my support"
In his address before the legislature
Mr.. Bryan, while reaffirming bis well
known position on the platform question,
took occasion to emphasize the fact that

Correspondence of the Alexandria Gazette
Washington, Feb. "a.
The democratic members OF the
House committee on naval affairs, after
conference with Representative Will
liams, of Mississippi, the democratic
floor leader, this morning, decided TO
make an effort to have the naval appro-
priation bill recommitted to the naval
affairs committee with the following in
structions: To eliminate two of the
three heavy ships carried in the bill !;
cutting the appropriation $l5, 900, 900
to place limit on the price of .fmor
plate with the further provision that if
the armor plate cannot be bought at
reasonable price, the government con-
struct its own armor plate factory 10
change the provision for a naval station
at Olongapo, Philippine islands, to a
coalinc station directing that the small
vessels authorized in the bill be con-
structed in the government navy yards
and directing the Secretary of the Navy
to consolidate different bureaus OF the
Navy Department if such consolidation
is in line With economy.
Representative Williams, OF Missls-
sippi. democratic floor leader, has taken
cognizance of the charge that the Phil
Iippine press is practically under
United States censorship. He intro
duced resolution in the House today,
calling on the Secretary of War for in
formation as to whether, and if so, to
what extent the right of free speech has
been denied in the Philippines since the
cessation of hostilities.
Elmer Dover, assistant secretary OF the
republican national committee, will act
as secretary of the committee until its
meeting just previous to the convention,
in place of Perry Heath, resigned.
Alfred Noble, the construction engi-
neer of the Pennsylvania Railroad, to
whom President Roosevelt offered a place
the 18th uian Canal Commission, has
declined the appointment.
The legislative, executive and judicial
appropriation bill was today reported to
the Senate. 1t carries total appropria-
ton of $2S, 1876, 233, an increase of SAT-, =
57S over the amount included when the
bill as passed by the House. The prin-
cipaI increase is caused by the desire of
the committee to give Secretary Cortel-
you, of the department OF commerce and
labor, an adequate clerical force.
The New York State delegation in the
House today selected Hon. Bourke Cock
ran, who was yesterday elected to sue
coed to the seat vacated by Mayor Nc
Clellan, as their choice for the position
on the ways and means committee, which
was given up by Mr.. Mcclellan when
be became Mayor of New York, and re-
signed from Congress.
Senator Hanna's picture will prob
ably be engraved on the Panama canal
construction bonds which will be issued
shortly by the Treasury Department.

dent today sent to the Senate copy OF
the constitution recently adopted by the
republic of Panama, and statement as
to other proceedings ofthe constitutional
convention.

CONGRESSIONAL

In the Senate yesterday after the vote
on the Panama treaty, ending in its rati-
fcation, consideration was begun of the
agricultural appropriation bill. More
than two hours was consumed in the dis
cussiOn of an amendment making an APP
preparation for experiments in stock
feeding, against which a point of order
was made by Mr.. Lodge. The point
was finally withdrawn and the amend.
ment adopted, but not until "rule 16"
had made its annual inroads into the
valuable time of the Senate. The agri-
cultural bill remains the unfinished
business.
Although the House devoted the entire
day to consideration Of the naval appro-
priation bill under the FIVE minute rule,
small progress was made. Amendments
were offered in profusion for the per-
lection of the measure from democratic
standpoint, but all save an appropriation
for the Charleston navy yard were re-
scted. This matter, presented in
forcible manner by Mr.. Legare, of South
Carolina, and amounting to a total Of
1856, 500 to carry on the work of existing
contracts, was agreed to after Chairman
Foss had stated that the only question
was whether the appropriation should be
made this year or next
The fight over the proposed Great
Lakes naval training station was begun
during the last half hour of the session,
and promises a lively debate today. A
point of order is hanging over the head
Of this item in the bill, and if it is
neglected by Mr.. Cooper Of Wisconsin,
who promises to make it, the Ohio dele
CATION will see that it is pressed.
Just before adjourning the House

AN OBJECT lesson in the tariff for the
American people is in the contract Of a
steel mill in the United States to deliver
at Montreal 40, 900 tons of rails for the
Canadian Pacific Railway at $21 20 a
ton. This, allowing'for cost of delivery,
is SIS a ton at the mills or $40 ton less
than the cost to American purchasers Of
steel rails at the mill The contract price
to the Canadian Pacific Railway left a
margin of fair, profit for the manufactur-
ers, and all that is above this price is an
iniquiious extortion upon American
consumers which can be practiced onl'
under cover of a shame1ully exOrbitant
tariff. How long, asks the Pl iladelphis
Record, will the colossal iniquity be en-
dured by the American people?

Narrow Escape from Lynching.

James Tall, a negro, aged about TWEEN
ty-fve years, had narrow escaped from
being lynched in Neville near Hsgers-
town, Nd, Monday night, by an angry
mob of white men. Tall made his appear
ance in the town several days ago, and
made practice of insulting young white
girls on the street, approaching them and
asking permission to escort them home.
The white people of the town became en-
ragged and determined to lynch the negro.
A dozen young white men went to War
rem Carriers barber shop, where Tall was
employed, and one of them called him
out. The crowd at once set upon him
kicked and beat him and dragged him to
the Big Spring bridge, three squares dis
tant. The mob steadily swelled until
there were fully $50 persons in the crowd.
The frightened negro pleaded for his life
but little attention was paid to his ap-
peals. A rope was put around his neck
and the mob were putting him over the
bridge, after tying the rope to beam,
when two preachers, Rev. Mr.. Kelly and
Rev. Mr.. Skillington, arrived upon the
scene and persuaded the mob to spare
the negrO's life. The negro was released
upon his promise to leave town at once.
After being liberated he started out of
town in a swift trot.

A DISPATCH from Sioux City, Iowa,
says an attempt will be made to convert
the ministerial association Of that place
into labor union. The members have
arrived at the conclusion that they work
as hard as other people, should be
guided by union rules and be affiliated
with labor organizations. A prominent
labor leader has been invited to address
the association upon these lines. We
prefer to believe that the movement will
not extend any farther than Sioux City,
even should it crystalize there. Some
ministers thoughtlessly make themselves
cheap by mixing in politics. Should
they become champions of movements
incident to labor turmoils they would
deteriorate more so.
