CANAL TREATY IN COMMITTEE.
Democratic Members Suggest Several
Amendments.

Washington, Jan. 8.-The senate
committee on foreign relations during
the day continued consideration OF
the Panama canal treaty. The docu-
ment was taken up for consideration
section by section and when the COM
mittee adjourned at noon eight sec
tions had been read and discussed.
The Democratic members suggested a
number Of amendments intended to
strengthen and make more absolute
the control Of the United States over
the canal. None Of these changes was
definitely acted on, but they were all
noted and the Republican members
indicated a willingness to give them
careful consideration.
There was some discussion Of the
general policy of amending the treaty
and the Republican members assured
their Democratic colleagues that the
majority had no intention Of standing
out against alterations where they
might seem desirable On the other
hand they expressed their willingness
to make changes which would i'm
prove the treaty and it was generally
agreed that under the present circum-
stances this government would be able
to secure any terms which might. be
considered requisite to secure ratifica-
tion of the treaty.
