CLAIM TREATY BREACH
BRITAIN 10 AWAITING PASSAGE
OF LEeIsLATioN WHICH
VIOLATES AGREEMENT.
Western Newspaper Union News Service.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
Washington.-A determined fight Is
to be made in the conference on tho
Panama canal bill. against the grant
ing Of free passage in the canal to
American foreign-bound ships. The
conference committee held its first
meeting Monday and continued discus
sion OF the measure at night ses-
sion.
Senator Brandegee, who opposed
free toll provisions in the Senate. is
understood to otand with Representa-
tives Adamson and Stevens of the
House conferees, In opposing what
they consider a violation Of treaty
rights. and too great concession to
:oreign-bound shipping. 1t is believed
from the preliminary conferences on
the measure that the free toll provt-
sion for Americap coastwise shipping
will be retained.
Little progress was made in the first
session Of tho conferees toward an
agreement on the Bourne amendment.
to divorce railroads from control Of
competing steamship lines and the
Reed amendment prohibiting trust-con-
trolled ships from using the Panama
canal. Both houses have indorsed the
plan to prohibit railroad-owned ships
from using the canal; but the Bourne
and Reed amendments are new matter
SO far as the House il concerned.
The British government, according
to advices from the State Department,
has made no further representation
regarding the proposition to allow
American vessels to use the canal free
of tolls. since the note Of Charge
Innes, July last. 1t is now awaiting,
it is said, the enactment of the legis-
lation and the adoption Of regulations
to put 1t into effect in order to have o
sufficient basis for more formal pro-
test against what 1t regards as a clear
breach of the existing treaty.
In recognition Of the superior right
of Great Britain to address the United
States government on this subject by
virtue of the existence OF the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, other European. ma
tions and even Japan have refrained
from approaching the State Depart.
ment, notwithstanding that their in
terest is equal to that Of Great Britain.
Uncle Sans positive refusal OF the
British request to treat British ship
ping on an equality with American, 1t
is probable, in the opinion Of govern
ment authorities, that the foreign Of
flee will come forward with PROPOSE
tion to submit the issue to arbitration,
calling attention to the existing Brit
ish-American arbitration treaty as a
basis for the proposition.
This move would bring the matter
to real crisis. Should arbitration be
adverse to the American position, 1t
would be necessary, 1t is said, for the
State Department to find reasonable
grounds for declination of the Brit
ish overture, without laying itself
open to the charge that it had delib.
erately violated the provisions Of the
treaty-the charge lodged against 1t
in connection with the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty.
