HAY Y-PAUNGEFOTE TREATY
IS NOT NOW EFFECTIVE

WASHINGTON, July 27.-Hannis Tay-
lor, United States minister to Spain from
1893 to 1897, and recognized authority
on international and constitutional law
has presented new and important phase
concerning the exclusive American right
to control the Panama canal.
He holds that the Hay-Pauncefote
treaty contemplated the construction of
a canal foreign to the United States and
the subsequent transfer of the canal to
the sovereignty of this country constitu-
ted fundamental change of the condi-
tions upon which the treaty was based.
Instead of building a canal in foreign ter
ritory. the United States has built it III
its own domain.
He declared the Hay -Pauncefote treaty
has become Voidable and that it should
be referred to the diplomatic authorities
of the two governments for negotiation
of such notifications as may be proper or
for abrogation, if that course is deemed
desirable
This, he states, would provide an hon
orable way to avoid the final submission
OF the canal question to The Hague, with
the embarrassment to this country that
might follow the decision of that tribunal.

SIX STATES LINED UP
FOR ROOSEVELT TICKET

OYSTER BAY. n. ". July 27-Six
staunch Republican states have adopted
a plan, Colonel Roosevelt said last night,
for the bodily capture of the Republican
organizations by the national Progressive
party. The states he named are Kansas,
Minnesota South Dakota Idaho Cali
fornia and Washington.
In each of these states, according to
Roosevelt leaders, VINO have talked with
the eX-president or ms aides, the Repub-
lcan organization is in control of the
supporters of the new party to an extent
sufficient to enable them to transfer the
organization virtually intact to Colonel
Roosevelt's support. In each case it is
the intention to retain the name Repub-
lican and place candidates for congress
and state offices on the regular Republi
can ticket.
the names of Taft and Sherman be placed
on the ballot as the Republican nominees
the Roosevelt candidate for electors will
go in separate column. Where the law
does not exact this the Roosevelt candi-
dates probably Will be placed under the
regular Republican emblem on the theory
that Colonel Roosevelt is the legitimate
nominee of the party
This claim goes back to the meeting
held in Chicago the night the Republican
national convention adjourned The
Roosevelt delegates. together with ROose-
welt candidates, for seats in the national
convention who were excluded, assembled
in Orchestra hall and offered the presi-
Dental nomination to Colonel Roosevelt
declaring that they constituted a MAORI
ty of the honestly chosen delegates to the
convention.
1t was Colonel Roosevet's expectation
that no decision would be reached as to
the procedure in these states until the
general situation was discussed at the
Chicago convention of the new party
next month. 1t has been represented to
him, however, that the movement had
advanced more rapidly than was expect
ed and that there is no reason for de-
laying the work longer.
In South Dakota Colonel Roosevelt
said. the plan already had been put into
effect and in the other states it had been
decided to take like measures.
The Minnesota situation was cleared at
a conference which Colonel Roosevelt had
with Lieutenant Governor Sam Gordon
and c. J. Knapp, from that state. The
impression was obtained from Gordon
that no Independent ticket would be run
in Minnesota. Colonel Roosevelt said
however, that as he understood it. this
decision applied merely to the candidates
for state and congressional offices and
that the Republican candidates for cleo
tors who are Roosevelt men will resign
and run on the National Progressive
ticket. The other Republican candidates
are to be supported by the followers Of
Colonel Roosevelt working through the
Republican organization.

NEW YORK, July 27.-The cotton mar
ket made further net gains of about 5
points today in the face of rather heavy
liquidation by several leading longs. The
question was again being asked as to
where all the cotton liqudated has gone.
1t seems to be the general idea that Liv-
erpool has taken a good deal of it, and
IL was reported that one firm sold 30,000
bales in Liverpool this morning against
purchases here. This would account for
part of the local demand. During the
late trading many messages were re-
ceived from Texas reporting deteriora-
tlon from high temperatures and hot
winds, which was reflected in sharp ad-
vance of about s points in New Orleans

er Of the assembly and one of the regu-

that if the Roosevelt forces are victorious

said Mr.. Stanton. "and it is therefore my
personal view of the situation that to

do not carry the September primaries
