This is, however, not the whole truth. It will be remembered that republican senators, though deter mined to make the canal a real Amer ican canal, and wholly under the con- trol of the United States, were embar- rassed by the fact that the draft of the treaty had the strong indorse- ment and urgent support of the ad- ministration, and that the criticisms it received in the senate were regard cd by MT Hay as a reflection upon him; and he was so affected by them that it was with difficulty persuaded not to resign his portfolio; and so it was natural for the leading senators to avoid making more changes than were actually needed, and to regard my amendment as an unnecessary change
 But, as I remember, we are in debted to MT. Hay for bringing about even better formulation of the treaty, through final diplomatic ne gotiations. than it was when 1t left the senate. for under the final ap- proved treaty the United States alone, and not the two powers together, adopts the rules for the neutraliza- . tion of the canal. and so. when all nations observing theee rules are re ferred to in the treaty, such eXprcs- sion cannot well be construed to in

MEXICAN WEST COAST
 MAIL MAKES DETOUR
Correspondence From Interior Travels Thousands of Miles Through
 Mexico and United States

Roy Carson of the United tSatcs R. M $, left last night for Tucson to take charge of the mail for Her mosillo. Guaymas and the states on the west coast of Mexico
 On account of the lack of railroad transportation it is necessary for mail dispatched from eastern Mexican states to points in Sonora and Topic to be carried by the United States from Fl Paso and Laredo, Texas. and Douglas. Arizona, to Tucson. From there it is sent south into Sonora and Tepic by the way of Nogales
 The train carrying the mail to these states was short tire ago. held up by the insurrectos and burned with the exception of one first-class coach and sleeper
 Recent reports, however. state that the rebels have been driven back by the federal troops. therefore no trouble is expected on this trip.

HE WOULD KNOW

Anxious San Diegan Wants to Locate in Peerless Gem City of Arizona But Seeks to Inform Himself Before Making Change

Undecided whether to continue his residence in San Diego or to make Phoenix, Peerless Gem of the Salt River valley his home, J. E. Keatin8, an attorney of the seaside village, writes the board of trade in this wise:
 win you be good enough to send me descriptive literature of Phoenix Now that you fellows are going to an mex us. it would be well for us to know something about the state and people who are going to do the an neNing l wish the literature for d more serious purpose"

But on setting wise to himself and the trend of the times, he thought to add that last reassuring sentence. Not with

THE TREATY AND THE CANAL
 TOLLS

EX- Senator Bard has made the fol- lowing statement concerning the re- iection of the amendment introduced by him when the Hay Pauncefote treaty was under consideration by the senate It has been assumed that this rejection implied that the senate did not contemplate the free passage of American vessels through the canal. The rejected amendment was Worded as follows: "The United States re- serves the right. in the regulation and management of the canal, to discrim- mate in respect of the charges of traf- fife. in favor of vessels of its own citizens engaged in the coastyyise trade" Concerning the cause of this rejection MT. Bard writes as follows:
 "The article refers incidentally to my proposed amendment to the Hay PaunCefote treaty. intended to provide free tolls for vessels employed in coastwise trade, and which was de- feated My statement, which was re- ferred to in the debate on the canal bill (approved yesterday by the presi denD that the reason why the amend ment was defeated is substantially corroborated by Senator Lodges re- marks that. at the time, he regarded. or rather it was generally understood, by senators that the amendment was unnecessary or superfluous and that the senate amendment of the original draft of the treaty would be suffi- cient to enable our government to make such discrimination

PEACH SHARES CHANCE
 AT CITY MARKET
George Alkire Offers Box of Fine Fruit to One Guessing the
 Variety He Sells

An opportunity for peach sharps to test their knowledge is to be offered by George Alkire under the auspices of the Arizona Producers company at the City Market next Tuesday morn ing. The facts of the case are all stated herewith
 Little George Alkire," has offered a prize of a box Of peaches to anyone that can successfully name the variety of peaches that he is going to place on sale that day. to help you out in your guessing and to enable you to win the prize we will state that the peach is yellow fresh free stone variety. sizes run ming from "A to 31a inches in di- ameter. It patterns rather after the grower. being perhaps a little bigger around than it is long. Where the peach is exposed to the sun beau tifulblush develops looking a great deal like the Krummell october. but it is not the KrummeU October. nor is it the Saaway peach.
 The peaches are worth viewing whether the visitor buys or not. but for those who wish to visit the mar ket that morning they will find that they can buy peaches very cheap for canning or peach butter, and will do doubt he the last opportunity to buy free stone peaches this season. There will be, of course, peaches on the market. but they will be imported and will be much higher in price necessarily packed green to stand ,he transportation. and will not have the flavor of peaches raised in this To- cality. There will be local cings later on for picking. If you want peaches you better go to the market Tuesday morning, and secure all that you want for canOiF11- ullTDoSe@
