Chamberlain's Resolution
Brings New Light on the
Canal Controversy
O'GORMAN INDORSES
PRINCIPLE EMBODIED
Resolution Would Require President TO
Terminate Hay-Pauncefote and
the Clayton Bulwer Treaties.
Much Discussion Aroused

Washington. April 2i.A demand for
abrogatlon OF two treaties with Great
Britain bearing upon isthmian canal
rights, presented to the Senate today in
resolution by Senator Chamberlain,
brought a new element into the canal con-
troversy now in progress between this
country and Great Britain over the right
of the United states to exempt American
coastwlse ships from the payment of
tolls.
Senator o'Gorfnan. chairman of the in
teroceanic canals committee, which must
handle canal legislation in the Senate. to-
night indorsed the principle embodied in
the Chamberlain resolution. Earlier ia
the day stRte department officials had
expressed ignorance of Senator Chamber
lain's plan TO introduced the resolution.
Would Formulate Treaty
The Chamberlain resolution would re-
quire the President to proceed at once TO
terminate the -Pauncefote treaty to
1901, and the Clayton-Bulwer treaty of
1852. which ii superseded. In statement,
Senator Chamberlain said the treaties and
records would show that the United States
never planned to give Great Britain such
treaty rights as would justify the pro
tests that country has made.
Senator OGorman said:
Senator Chamberlain resolution Is
more concrete statement of the position
took In the last session, that II the Hay
Pauncefote treaty justif1es Great Britain
in making the protest now before our gov
ernment, then 1t would be well II means
could be found to abrogate the treaty"
The new angle TO the situation caused
much discussion in Senate circles during
the day and brought out many indorse-
ments of the proposal Senator OGorman
declared at the close of today's session
that he believed the resolution would pass
by large majority il it came to vote.
Meeting Postponed
A meeting of the interoceanic canals
committee had been called for tomorrow,
but 1t was postponed until next Tuesday.
Senator Roots bill for repeal of the
free toll provision Is now before the COM
mittee. Tt was apparent today that much
of the support that was mustered In the
last session to prevent the change of free
tolls provisions will now be brought to
the support of the plan to abrogate trea-
ties that may be interpreted as giving
Great Britain any ground for protest.

REPUBLICANS WILL,
REGAIN CONTROL
Inevitable Result With Democrats
Now PursuIng the Same
Old Course.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 21.-
That unprejudiced men in and out Of
politics have no doubt in their minds
that the republican party ultimately
will regain control Of the govern
ment, was declaration made by for
mer United States Senator A. ]. Hop
kins of Illinois, who has been in
Washington the last few days.
Mr.. Hopkins before his service in
the senate was member OF the
house. He was representative in
1888 when the democrats were re-
turned to power after the defeat of
President Harrison by Grover Cleve-
land. He compared the situation In
the country and in congress then with
the situation today
The democrats now are pursuing
the same course they pursued then
and the result Is inevitable, MI. Hop
kins said. What were the conditions
then? When the democratic ways and
means committee, of which l was a
! minority members, took up the task
! of revising the tariff there had not
/ been for eighteen months an enforced
/ idle man in the United States, fac
/ tories were running on full time,
money was plentiful, and the country
prosperous: but Mr.. Bryan, Chairman
Wilson, Mr.. McMillin. and other lead
| ing democrats on the committee in
/ sisted that they were going to carry
! out democratic principles and please
the people by going to as near free
pened?
Within eighteen months after the
Wilson bill went on the statute books
100000 men were forced out of EN-
ployment, factories were closed, fur
mace fires were banked, and in the
succeeding years that the Wilson bill
was in effect 73 per cent of the rail
roads OF the country went into the
receivers hands. Soup houses wer,
established all the way from New
York to San Francisco, and the bread
line was endless. 1t didn't take tn,
voters long to discover the cause o
the changed conditions and they votet
to restore the republicans to power
When President Mckinley was elect
ed. he called republican ways AM
means committee together, and 10
months this committee was in ses
sion framing protective tariff bill
The Dingley bill was passed, an
now, when the democrats once NOR
come into control, the nation is er
joying, by virtue Of republican rule
4 the most prosperous condition in tn
history of the world? The democrat
d are going to try to destroy this pro-
perity
There is no split in the republica
party that cannot be closed. The splt
in the last election was due to PEI
sonalities and not to principles.
II should not be surprised II tn
next congress is republican, and
am confident that the next presider

ing and confidence increased. She
looked very well this morning. Since
Dominick's return she had looked
haggard and thin. SometimeSS she had
seemed to see, showing shadowy
through her reflected face in the mir
ror, the lines and hollows of that face
when time should have put a stamp on
1t that neither massage nor pigments
would efface. A sudden moment Of
revelation showed her herself as an
old woman, her nose pointed, her
mouth a thin, tight line. This morn
ing the glass gave her back none Of
these disconcerting hints. She was at
her best, and as she dressed carefully
and slowly, she had the satisfaction of
seeing that each added article of ap-
parel increased her good looks. When
she finally put on her new hat-the
one she had bought in celebration of
Dominick's return-and over 1t tied a
white and black dotted veil. she was
so gratified with the picture she pre-
sented that she was reluctant to leave
1t and pirouetted slowly before the
glass. surveying her back and side
views, and finally lifting her skirt that
she might see the full effect of her
lilac petticoat as 1t burst into sight
In an ebullition of pleats and frills.
Walking up the avenue she was
bridlingly conscious that her brilliant
appearance drew Its tribute Of glances.
Many people looked at her, and their
sidelong admiration was an even more
exhilarating tonic than the sunshine.
She walked with light, elastic step,
spreading perfume on the air, her
progress accompanied by a rich seduc-
tive rustic. Once or twice she passed
members Of that exclusive world from
which she had stolen Dominick. She
swept by them, languidly Indifferent,
her eyes looking with glacial hauteur
o--er their heads. The sound made by
her brushing silk petticoats was graft
fyingly aggressive. She impaired to
them slight disdainful swing, and
lifted her dress skirt daintily higher,
conscious Of the impeccable amplitude
Of her emerging lilac frills.
The habit Of dining with her own
people on Sunday had been one she
had never abandoned, even in the first
aspiring days Of her marriage 1t was
sort of family reunion and at first
Dominick had been a not unwilling
participant in its domestic festivities.
The solid bourgeois respectabiIity of
his wife's relations appealed to him.
For all his advantages in money and
education he was of the same class
and while Berny was, IL not a
beloved spouse, yet endurable one,
he had found the Sunday gatherings
and subsequent hejira to the park not
entirely Objectionable. For over a year
now he I'D es ared from it, pleading
the need Of open air and exercise, and
his sisters-in-law, who had at first pro-
tested, had grown used to his absence |
and accepted 1t as something to bear
The day was so fine that they hur-
ried through their dinner, a hearty
and lavish meal, the chef d'oeuvre of

lose a moment Of the sunshine, deter

"J. Pierpont Morgan" said a clergy
man, hated the dissension that some
times springs up between high church
and low. Apropos of all such reli-
gious dissension, he used to tell a
story about a wise old colored man,
Calhoun Clay.
"Cal,' gentleman once inquired,
what denomination do you belong to?
l think see you sometimes making
for the chapel but don't you think
you'd do better to come to us?'
"Bress yo' heart, sonny chuckled
old Calhoun Clay, hits dis-a-way.
