from time TO time for many years to
secure Great Britain's consent TO an
abrogation of the treaty, but the mat
ter never became of acute moment
until the Spanish war demonstrated
the military. necessity for the con-
struction of an interoceanic canal.
Hsy.Pauncefote Treaty.
In March, 1899, Congress, under
:compulsion of public sentimnet, pass
ed a law providing for the appoint
ment of commission to select the
best route for an interoceanic canal,
and such a commission, headed by
Admiral Walker, was appointed.
About the same time negotiations
were opened with Great Britain for
a revision OF the Clayton Bulwer
treaty, in anticipation of the selec,
ton of the Nicaragua route. In Feb
ruary, 1901, the first Hay.Pa nncefote
convention was negotiated. as stated
In 1t, ito facilitate the construction
OF q ship. canal to connect the Allan
tic and Pacific oceans. and to that
end to remove any objection which
might arise cut Of the convention of
April 10. 1850, commonly called the
Clayton ulwer treaty, to the con.
struction of such a canal, under the
auspices of the government Of the
United States"
The Senate OF the United States
amended this treaty by placing in il
two privisions, one abrogating in
terms the Clayton ulwer treaty, the
other giving the United States the
right to take such measures as 1t
considered necessary for the defense
Of the canal. The British government
refused at first to accept these amend
mepts. After the interchange of sew
eral notes, q new convention was ne
gotiated which abrogated the Clay
to1.Bulwer treaty and conceded the
right Of the United States to con.
struct the canal, and conceded @as
well. the exclusive right of providing
for the regulation and management of
the canal. It contained also the fol-
lowing provision, over which the pres.
ent controversy has arisen "TEe
canal shall be free and open to the
vessels Of commerce and of war of
all nations observing these rules. on

there shall be no discrimination

TO enlist foreign capital. preferably
from Great Britain. then the leading

voice In the construction and opera

thought was had Of cutting canal

November 16. 1901. just one month
previous to the ratification of the
treaty, the canal commission had
made a report, favoring the selection
of the Nicaragua route When the
treaty was ratified there was no one
who had in serious thought the idea
that the canal would be constructed
elsewhere than by way of Nicaragua.
Change In Situation.
j Shortly after the ratification of the
treaty tha House passed the Hepburn
bill. providing for the immediate com
mencement of the work of cutting
the canal by way of Nicaragua, max
ing an appropriation of $4,000, 900
and authorizing the letting of con-
tracts for expenditures aggregating
.$140,000,000 in addition. Before this
DILL was acted upon by the Senate
there came a change in the situation
The French company, then engaged
in cutting the Panama canal, became
alarmed at the prospect of compel
ing canal operated by the government
of the United States, aware that in
face of such threatened competition
# could secure no more capital with
which to complete its work So it
reduced the price at which 1t offered
TO sell to the United States from
500, 100000, the original figure, TO
$40, 0O0, 600. The canal commission,
after seriously studying the whole
subject anew, filed supplemental
report, recommending the acceptance
of the Panama route instead of that
by Nicaragua originally recon-
mended.
Panama Route Substituted.
In the Senate Spooner offered an
amendment to the Hepburn bill, strik-
ing out all following the enacting
clause and substituting Panama
canal bill. After lengthy debate and
bitter opposition, the Spooner amend
ment was accepted by the Senate, and
the bill as amended passed on June
10, 1902 1t was accepted by the
House on June 26, being thereafter
promptly signed by the President.
The original Clayton Bliwer treaty
contained no limitations on the right
of the United States to construct a
canal by way OF Panama, but referred
only to Nicaragua, II there are limi-
tations now upon the right of the
United States to operate the canal
cut at Panama, they are imposed
solely by the HaY-Pauncefote treaty,
which was negdlited and ratified, $50
far as this country is concerned, with
the idea that It was relieving the
United, States of existing limitations
rather than imposing new ones upon
It. 1t was negotiated, at the time,
entirely with the idea in view that
the canal was to be by Nicaragua,
and contained absolutely no direct
reference to the Panama canal at-all.

1t is generally conceded in Wash

The Wilson supporters says "the
result in Illinois is attributed to the
influence Of William Randolph Hearst
and his newspapers and political al
lies. 1t was aided, too. by the aban-
Gonment Of the field by Gov. Harmon,
who. in accordance with the territor,

left Illinois, where his friends mao
been campaigning for months, ano
turned the whole Harmon strength
over TO Clark.

The report that Speaker CLARK had

its face and has been accepted oE
Clark people as the basis for eAas-

The claim of the Clark men IS
absurd" said Hon. John W. Crock
