FOR LOCK CANAL
Minority Report of the Senate Com
mittee on Interoceanic Canals Sub
mitted Today - Legal Questions
Discussed.

Washington, May 29.-In its recon-
mendation of the construction of a
lock canal across the isthmus of Pana-
ma, the minority of the senate COM
mittee on interoceanic canals drafted
an exhaustive report, which was sub
mitted to the senate today by Chair
man Millard One of the chief argu-
ments made in favor of lock canal
is that the Spooner act shows congress
intended that should be the type, al
tho authority to decide was conferred
upon the president. The minority says:
''The president, having taken advice
of competent engineers, and of the
canal commission, has recommended
that it is advisable to construct lock
canal" The minority declares the on
ly question presented is whether con-
gress can annul the action of the pres
ident, or shall simply hold Its hand
and allow the president to exercise the
power which has heretofore been con-
ferred upon him.
The type proposed by the minority
board of consulting engineers is lock
canal which is the type favored by the
minority, say the committee. The re-
port argues that the plan is we'll bal
anced, for it will take just about the
same time to construct a dam, excavate
for locks and build locks as it does to
make the needed excavation thru Guile
bra cut, a period of not more than
seven and a half years. Everything
else to be done can be completed well
within this time. The cost OF the canal
is s140,000,000 This includes every
thing but sanitation, and it of course
includes equipment already purchased
ready made.

Ministry Will
IGNORE AFFRONI
The Russian Government De-
cides to Continue the Pres
ent Regime
ATTITUDE TO BE coNcILIAToRY
Lower House viii Be Allowed to EIab-
crate Its Projeets-No Amnesty Will
Dc Granted, But Political Prisoners
Will be Given Their Liberty - Will
Play Waiting Game.

st. Petersburg, May 29.-As fore
shadowed in the Associated Press dis
patch last might. the government has
decided on It's course of action with
reference to the vote of lack Of conf
dence Of the lower house and its de-
mand for resignation Of the ministry.
It will swallow parliament's affront ana
treat its resolution simply as a declar-
alton beyond its competency and conse-
quently, as not binding upon the mon
arch. In other words, the government
has decided to ignore the demand Of
the lower house the ministry will not
resign, but neither will parliament be
I dissolved.
Moreover, instead of treating the ac-
tion of the lower house as a cause for
offense, the ministry will continue it's
conciliatory attitude in the hope that
the storm will subside and unless par
lament takes some revolutionary ae-
ton, the original plan of prolongation
of the session until it's time for the
summer vacation, at the end of June,
Will be carried Out. In tne meantf1ne
the government will offer its own pro-
jects for solution of the Agrarian
question, ETC., and if they are rejected
the lower house will be allowed to
elaborate It's own projects. No amnesty
will be granted, but political prisoners
will be released as rapidly as possible.
l,he ministry is evidently strongly con-
vtnced its Agrarian program will win
the support of The conservative inter-
ests of the country, which naturally
are frightened at the universal scheme
for appropriation of land proposed by
tha lower house. Both the ministry
and court camarilla are understood 10
have Joined in the decision to adopt
the above tactics.
The spirit of the lower house is
much calmer today. AT the opening Of
the session communication from the
premier was read announcing the in
terpellation regarding the death sem
tence imposed by the court martial at
Riga on eight workmen accused of po-
litical murder and robbery, had been
transmitted to War Minister Rudiger.
