Yesterday afternoon the text was photographed TO

sent TO the Senate, and at the executive session
which closed the legislative day this Geographic
transcript was referred to the Committee
Foreign Relations. This is declared to be the
first time in the history Of the United States
that a telegraphic text of a treaty has been
considered in the Senate. pending the arrival OF

In view OF the difficulties which have been
experienced in Santo Domingo by Minister Daw

The new convention is markedly simpler than
the original. All provision for the adjudication
OF Santo Domingo's debt is eliminated and there

IS TO be accomplished by a bond issue. which

Probably Be Passed To-day.
rFrom The Tribune Bureaul

WASHINGTON Feb. 1.-THE Senate Committee
on Finance unanimously approved the Aidrlch
financial bill this forenoon, and it was to-day
reported TO the Senate. IT is the expectation OF
Mr. AIdrich that It will be passed by the senate
without opposition at early date possibly
tomorrow. 1t is not expected that there VIII
be any general debate the measure, although
Mr., AIdrich viii probably make brief explain
alton of fits provisions
The bill provides for the three changes in the
law outlined in this mornings Tribune Sec
ton / provides that the Secretary of the Treas
ury shall be authorized TO issue gold certificates
in denominations Of not less than $40 except
when the gold reserve shall fall below Sl0opo-
600 and that whenever silver certificates OF the
denominations of 81. So and 81 shall be- in the
opinfOn Of the Secretary Of the Treasury. in
sufficient to meet the public demand he he au-
thorized to issue United States notes Of ST. -
and 81.
Section provides that all banking instltu-
lions designated for that purpose by the Score
tary Of the Treasury shall be repositories Of
public money. and IN effect removes the injunc-
ton against depositing IN such institutions re-
cepts from customs revenue.
Section provides that the limitation on ma
tional bank circulation which may be retired In
any one calendar month. now placed at 5000
OOO shall be increased to 100000.
This will constitute the only financial legisla-
ton likely to be enacted at this session of Con-
gress. Inasmuch the first part OF Section l
Is contained in a bill which has already passed
the House, the passage Of the new measure by
the Senate Will send it directly TO conference

lature shall provide by law shall necessarily be
used for the storage of water for public purposes
and the construction Of dams therefor"
Now if that amendment is adopted by the pres
ent Legislature it will then be presented to the
people Mt the next succeeding state election 10
be voted on. and YOU know how difficult it is TO
etitutioual amendment Ii Is the same interests
that are pressing II, the objects they have
in view as they had before And you can imagine
how after power has been given by the Legis-
lature 10 provide by law that lands may he used

the constructing Of dams thGrefor-after thev have
got their dams with the water stored. how long it
viii take them TO Get leave from the Legislature
TO use It for these private purposes which are so
rampant and greedy. and have been over since this
constitutional provision was adopted.
There IS not time for me to give you the history
OF the proceedings in the Legislature. You can
Judge Of those FOR yourselves. You can read the
account What / have say is that / believe that
81 this amendment by way OF concurrent resolu-
ton should pass this Legislature and should then
pass the people, the wise and far-seeiEg provision
Of the constitution in the convention OF 1894 will
be practically abolished. 1t will be resubmitted TO
the action of the Legislature. and you know how
difficult IL is for the Legislature resist pressure
from private interests when those private interests
are deeply embedded in the Legislature itself.

Officials This Session.

Washington Feb. 1.-THE President has not sent
20 the Senate this session the nominations OF the
Isthmian Canal Commissioners, but this escaped
the notice OF the Senate Committee Interoceanic

confirmed last session. and they received recess
