SALTWATER MINNESOTA, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 5, 1872

ject, as presented by the Senate OF
the United States in their resolution
to which I have already referred, is
to secure to all nations the free and
equal right of passage over the 18th
mus. If the United States as CHEF
of the American nations, should first
become a party of this guarantee, it
cannot be doubted: indeed it is con-
fidently expected by the Govern
ment of New Granada, that similar
guarantees will be given to that Re-
public by Great Britain and France" )"
These words are particularly ap-
plicable to the present time and
should be an answer to those who
are advocating the dimming Of
Americas honor for the private gain
of the shipping trust. Thus the
Clayton -Bulwar treaty was entered
into between the United States and
Great Britain, as the greatest land
power of the Western Hemisphere
and the greatest naval power of the
world. With reference to any
means of communication by ship
canal, which may be constructed be-
tween the Atlantic and Pacific
oceans, the following is an extract
taken from this treaty:
The contracting parties in this
convention engage to invite every
state with which both or either
have friendly intercourse to enter
into stipulations with them similar
to those which they have entered in
to with each other, to the end tina
all other States may share in tht
honor and advantage of having con
tributed to a work of such genera
interest and importance as the cana
contemplated. And the contracting
parties likewise agree that eacl
shall enter into treaty stipulation
with such of the Central American
States as they may deem advisabl
for the purpose of more effectually
carrying out the great design of thi
convention, namely, that the con
structing and maintaining the sal
canal as ship communication be
tween the two oceans, for the bene
fit of mankind, on equal terms t
:, ALL"
That was howthe United States feI
=, about it in 1850. They looked fo
! and expected equal terms when the
o were not building the canal them
selves. Then when til e Unite
States considered the building {
, the canal themselves a new treat
was necessary and in 1900 the Ha!
o Pauncefote treaty was signed, and
- letter written by John Hay, Ctr
. negotiator of the treaty on beha
,, of the United States) to Mr.. Whi
! the American Charge de Affairs
+ London, says in part, whe

WALL STREET
DEPRESSED
BY The Ocean Disaster, Has q Very
Irregular Market to Deal
With Thursday.

NEW YORK. April ls.-The In
nuence OF the great marine disaster
continues to hang over the financial
community and to a great extent over
the stock market, Business today
was light and the movement irregu-
lar when not absolutely reactionary
The anthracite coal situation. the
conference OF the railway managers
relative TO the demands OF the loco
motive engineers and additional un.
favorable crop advices constituted
factors OF a deterrent character.
In the way OF actual happenings
the most important. even though ex.
pected. was the declaration by the
Amalgamated Copper directors OF a
quarterly dividend at the rate OF four
dollars annually. This Is double the
disbursement made by the company
since 1908.
Amaigamated Copper and Allied
Stocks were fairly firm In the early
dealings. but later sold OF in com
mon with the general list. Amalga-
mated made its lowest quotation OF
fhe day following the dividend an
nouncement. Early features OF
strength included United States
Steel. New York Central, Rock Is
land Issues and common and pyeferr.
ed stocks OF the Bethlehem Steel and
Republic Iron and Steel Companies.
A better tone was shown by the
bonds OF the International Mercan.
tile Marine Company, but later this
issue as we'll as the preferred stock
was heavy.
Trading became very dull in the
late session, prices rising and falling
within narrow limits. Net changes
indicated a preponderance OF losses,
Few OF which exceeded fractions with
some material gains In the more OBJ.
scure issues.
sensational feature OF the curb
was the rise in the price OF old Mar.
conf wireless shares to $40. as
against 10 at yesterdays close. The
nnal price was 235. Little fore than
a week ago the stock was selling
under itS par value OF $780, The
company today approved an Increase
OF It's capital from 1885,, 900 to $40.
