To PROTECT DITCH
HOUSE DECIDES BY oVERWHELM-
ING VOTE TO FoRTIFY
PANAMA CANAL.
AID IS GIVEN BY DEMOCRATS
Twenty Republicans Refuse to Sup
port Measure Providing for Bat
teries to Guard Big Waterway

Washington-By an on erwhelming
vote the house of Representatives Sat
urday night appropriated s3,00o,0 900 to
begin work on the fertilization of the
Panama canal. The total cost of pro-
tecting the big waterway will be about
$12,000,000.
There is no doubt of the result in
the senate, where the sentiment is said
to be two to one in favor of protecting
the waterway with land batteries.
The house disposed of the question
after nearly five hours of debate. The
posed by Representative Tawney of
Minnesota, chairman of the committee
on appropriations, providing that no
part of the $3,000,000 should be used
until the president of the United States
had attempted to negotiate treaties
tons guaranteeing the neutrality and
International protection of the canal
The Tawney amendment then was
voted down by 100 to 63. A motion
by Representative Keller of Ohio to
strike out all provision for the fortif1-
cation of the canal vas lost by vote
of 1875 to 81.
The real interest in the debate
seemed to center in the Tawney
amendment, and the speeches made
for and against it by Mr.. Tawney and
Mr. Sherley. Mr.. Tawney, stalwart
Republican, looked to the Democrat
ic side for sympathy and applause
and received both. Mr.. Sherley, one
of the Democratic leaders of the
house, was accorded an ovation by
the Republican members. The de-
lection of about twenty Republicans
from the general policy of fortifica-
ton was Offset by a similar detection
on the Democratic side in favor of
fertilization
In passing the sundry civil bill car
rying approximately $140, 100000, and
of which the canal fortifcation pro-
vision was the last feature to be con-
sidered, the house made a new record.
Never before has this biggest of all
supply bills been put through in two
days without any sort of gag rule. ="
1t is taken as another evidence that
the house is doing all it can to avoid
an extra session.
