struction Of Panama Canal.

Warren b. Wilson, lawyer, of Chi
cago, has filed in the district supreme
court at Washington a bill in equity
for an injunction against Secretary
Shaw, the republic of Panama, the
New Panama Canal company Of
France and others to stop the con-
struction of the Panama canal. He
asks that Secretary Shaw be en-
Joined from permitting the payment
Of moneys under his control under the
pretended authority of the void act
Of June 49, 1902, entitled. AN act to
provide for the construction of canal
connecting the waters of the Atlantic
and Pacific oceans" He AYERS that
there is no appropriation by law Of
any money for the payment of any Of
the construction expenses and de-
clares that the act of June 2S, 1902,
Is in violation of the constitution of
the United States, and is null and
void. He charges that the treaty is
wholly unconstitutional and invalid,
both in the United States and In
Panama.
