SPECIAL
ACTS
Required i'm the Panama Case
it is Said.
Treaty to be Voted on Tomorrow
Bills to be Passed Later.

Washington, Feb. 22--After . con
ference between the Senate leaders
and the administration it has been
decided that further legislation is nee.
essary to carry into effect the provis-
ions of the Panama canal treaty, which
IL TO be ratified tomorrow and to pro-
vide for digging the great waterway.
First will come bill or joint resolu-
ton authorizing the payment to the
Republic Of Panama Of the $40, 900,
900 which. under the terms of the
treaty, that republic is to receive for
the cession of the canal right Of way.
In order to clear up any doubt
Whatever in the matter 1t has been de-
cided to pass q bill giving specific au-
thority for making the payments to
Panama. Provision will also be made
In the bill for the issue Of the bonds
for the construction Of the canal.
The second bill on the programme
10 even more important than the FIRST.
The ten mile strip across the 18TH
mus will come under the jurisdiction
Of the United States a. soon ~ the
necessary : formslities have been OBJ
served, and some laws will be needed
81 once to preserve order there. Mill
tary rule IL undesirable and unpopu-
lar. The laws Of the United States
are hardly applicable to that locality,
owing TO the difference In racial con-
ditions. 1t 10 proposed therefore 20
create . separate commission, separate
and distinct from the Panama canal
commission proper. for the purpose Of
carry ing out a code of laws to be en-.
acted by Congress especially for the
governments Of the canal zone. or, II
this is found impracticsble, to give
the commission power. like the Philip
pine commission, to enact its own
laws, subject to the approval Of Con
gress.
The urgent need Of immediate legis-
lation, however, is apparent, rs the
territory will soon be turned over TO
the United States, and after the actu.
al work Of construction the canal is
under way it will have a population
of perhaps 30, 900 people.
Legislation will also be necessary
for the appointment of the American
members Of the joint commission to
sppraise the property within the canal
zone belonging to private parties, pro-
viding regulations under which the
joint commission shall work and pre-
scribing the manner Of payment of it's
awards. The duties and pay Of the
Panama commission proper will be set
forth in one of the measures to be
passed.

IHIBETAhS PAID DEARLY
Their General and Escort Killed in
Attack On the British.
and Then the Slaughter Of tho
Thibctans Began.

Tuna, Thibet, April 3-The Thibetau
general, the whole of his personal es-
cort and five Lhassa officials were
among the hundreds killed In the fight
ing of March 81 at Guru, Thibet.
The small British losses are ac-
counted for by the fact that the Thi-
betans were so huddled together that
the majority were unable either to use
their swords or to fire. The swords
men in the front rank could not reach
the sikhs, who had fixed bayonets,
while the men in the middle Of the
mob could not reach the enemy, but
many of them probably killed each
other in the mad excitement. The
scene recalled oldtime fights in cock
pits, the grim, determined faces of the
Thibetans, lighted with devildom saw
agery, expressing contempt for the
sikhs, whom they outnumbered six
or seven TO one.
General Fired FIrst shot.
When the Lhassa general fired the
first shot, the Thibetans with wild
shouts drew their swords, fired their
matchlocks and surged forward About
a dozen swordsmen made desperate
rush in the direction of Col. Macdonald
and small knot of officers. Four Thi-
betans attacked Mr.. Gambler, the coz
respondent of the London Daily A.ail.
but Col. Macdonald seized a rifle and
shot down two of them at few yards
and another officer killed the other two,
thus saving Mr. Candler's life. Those
of the Thibetans who tried to climb
the wall were met with terrible mag
azine rife fire. but they did not falter.
those behind springing over the heaps
Of dead and continuing the fight until
riddled with bullets.
Retired Doggcdly.
When finally the Thibetans retired
they tramped back slowly and steadily.
though followed by hail Of bullets.
A mountain battery was brought into
action. and tore the retreating lines
with shFapncl. A terrible trail of dead
and dying marked the line Of march.
At length, the last wounded, limping
Thibetan turned the corner, some 400
yards from the scene of the grim
tragedy where the best of the Thibetan
army had perished.

Young Cotton Killed.

Reports from several sections Of
Mississippi, especially the northern
counties, are to the effect that a con-
siderable amount of young cotton
was killed by the frost last week,
and a large amount of replanting
will be necessary. To the southwark
of Jackson the damage on account
of the cold snap was not of much
consequence, but some of the north
ern communities suffered heavily,
according to the reports received. 1t
is llally the case, however, that
crop damage from adverse weather
is never so bad as painted, and that
with the recurrence of warm wealth
er it is anticipated that many of the
estimates heretofore made will not
have such gloomy aspect.
