THE TREATY RATIFIED.
Went Through the Senate With
out Amendment.
Both the War and State Departments
Have Made Preparations For a
Speedy Consummation of the
Panama Canal Treaty.

Washington, Feb. 24.-The United
States senate Tuesday ratified with
out amendment the treaty with Pana-
ma for canal across the isthmus OF
that name by a vote of sc to IA. The
result was a fOregone conclusion, the
interest in the matter being only in
the division of the vote on the demo-
cratic side which was not known def
nitely until the roll was called, all
! the republicans being for ratification.
Fourteen democrats voted for ratl-
/ fication and IA against. Two demo
Gratis, Clark, of Montana, and Stone. of
Missouri, were paired in favor of the
| treaty and three democrats, OVerman,
McLaurin and Martin were paired
against it, so in the total vote 16 dem
ocrats were for the treaty and II
against it.
The only other vote was on the
amendment offered by Senator Bacon,
providing for an arrangement to COM
pensate Colombia for loss of the ter
ritory of Panama. This was rejected
by a vote of "A to 40. 1t was party
vote on the. affirmative side and also
on the negative side with the excep-
ton of Mr. Gibson and Mr.. McEnery,
democrats, who voted with the repub-
Iicans. Four democrats were absent
when this vote was taken and no pairs
were announced for them. Some re-
publicans also were absent on this vote.
Senators generally commend the
management of the treaty by Senator
Cullom, chairman of the committee
on foreign relations, who has had
charge of the measure during both Of
the plain and stormy sailing.
Everything is ready for the speedy
cOnsummation of the Panama canal
treaty, and both the war and state de-
partments have made preparations for
the next step, the former by the dis
patch Of troops to the isthmus and the
latter by the completion of arrange
ments for the exchange of notifications
of the treaty, which must take place
in Washington. There is no reason
why this ceremony should not occur
within the next 48 hours. M. Bunau-
Vanilla. the minister from Panama,
was at the state department Tuesday
in relation to this matter and very
soon after he has made the exchange
of treaties will lay down his mission,
according to notice he has already
given. His successor as minister here
will be Pablo Arosamena, the present
head of the constitutional convention
and father of the secretary of the Pan
ANA legation here Mr.. Arosamena is
described as a lawyer Of ability and
man Of means.
The administration intends to press
the canal project by all proper meth
DDS. AS a cabinet officer expresses it,
the next step after the appointment Of
the commission will be ito scratch
dirt and already such members of
the commission as are assured of their
places, like Adm. Walker and Maj.
Gen. Davis; have been giving some at
tention to the provision of the clerical
force and the engagement Of engineer

of canal digging.

THE CANAL COMMISSION.
Five of the Appointees by the Presi-
dent Have Accepted.

Washington, Feb. 20 President
ances from five of his appointees on
the new isthmian canal commission,
namely, RI. Adm. John G. Walker, U.
s. N, retired; Gen. George w. Davis.
y. S. A, retired; Col Frank Hecker,
of Detroit, director of the transporta-
ton during the Spanish-American war;
William Barclay Parsons, engineer Of
the New York subway, and William H.
Burr professor of engineering at Co.
lumbia university, New York, and one
time a member of the Walker isthmian
canal commission.
1t is quite likely, although it has not
been determined absolutely yet, that
the other two members of the commits.
sion will be Benjamin M. Harrod, If
New Orleans, an engineer of the Mis-.
sissippi river commission, and G..
Ewald Grunsky, Of San Francisco, a
distinguished hydraulic engineer. 1t
is believed Mr.. Grunsky will accept.
1t was hoped by the president that
Alfred Noble, engineer of the PennsyI-
vania railroad, would accept one of
the appointments, but it was under
stood Wednesday night that he has
declined definitely. His work for the
Pennsylvania system is in such shape
as practically to preclude the posi-
bility of his undertaking the canal
commission work.
The president expects to complete
the personnel Of the commission very
soon, perhaps Thursday. He will send
the appointments Immediately to the
senate for confirmation. He is ex-
tremely anxious that there should be
no unnecessary delay in the practical
work of digging the canal by the Unit
ed States.
