 In the wrang1e which has lasted over many years few facts seem to be uaeonf Euynrssd Tt does seem undis- puted,- however that President Roosevelt. acting under. authority of a -hw, fathefed by the s}afaG Senator Spooner, of Wisconsin. negotiated q treaty with Colombia by which tho rights Of tho old French Canal com pany to builG theT canal, with a cash payment Ut $10,B00,ee0 and an annual payment JEof $35o,Q00. The Treaty was ratified by the United States sen ate, but the Colombian senate refused to accept it.. The motfxes which were said to have actuated. the Colombian senate in dts refusal ,- furnished the ground work for some of the charges against Colombia by the opponents of the present treaty. o-..t ! peLeaeeps, the French canal build CT. had spent millions of dollars and thousands of lives. in unsuccessful ef- foFts to build the canal and the prof

Tn ftreaty opponents contended that. tn tratifcation of the present treat. i would sustain those contention which they denied and place a stail on the memory of President Roose welt.
 The strange shifts that often occu in political tides, find an illustration in the history of the treaty. It wa negotiated at the instance of Will Han Jennings Bryan, democrati | secretary of state, submitted by democratic. president. Woodrow Will son, blocked ID ratification by re ! publican minority, recommended fo | ratification by a republican president 1 Warren G4 Harding. and urged b. leaders of a. senate preponderantly re publican.
