NOTA MeGILL, ey THE NICARAGUA CANAL Warm Remarks in the Senate About Mini ter Rodriguez's Letter. Mr. Vilas Said It Dealt a Death Biow to the Bill—Mr, Morgan Speaks ckma: The sensation developed in the Senate yesterday by the presentation of a lett from Minister Rodriguez, by Mr. Sherman, as told in The Star, formed the subject of the debate on the Nic: Tagua canal bill until adjournment. After The Star's report closed yesterday afternoon, Mr. Morgan said the American people would not quietly give up the right to control that great waterway. whatever clamor may be raised for a peace treaty with Great Britain, The presentation of this letter, coming from the Secretary of State, meant that the President of the United States had determined that the pending Nicaragua canal bill was not to be allowed to pass. That was a remarkable threat, and yet it was so in line with prev- fous executive action that Mr. Morgan said he felt quite prepared for the interference Mr. White suggested that the letter had been sent by the Secretary of State to the committce on foreign relations for its pri Yate information, and the chairman (M:. Sherman) had undertaken to make it public in the Senate. Mr. Morgan said the real cause for the appearance of this Rodriguez lette that it proposed a renewal of the F huysen-Savalla treaty, by which w to pay Nicaragua $4.000,00 Referring to the Clayton-Bulwe: Mr. Morgan said it was not wo per it was written on. He proceeded discuss the Frelinghuysen-Savalla treaty. Mr. Morgan referred to the position of Mr. Sherman as to treaties affecting the canal. “1 will say,” interjected Mr. Sherman. “thai I favor the Nicaragua canal.” Mr. Morgan said he beli in going ahead irrespective of this protest. He did think the United States should pay $4.- 000,000 for a concession which it now pos- sessed. Mr. Morgan said the letter of Mr. riguez was in effect a notice to the Senate not to pass the Nicaragua canal bill. “Why has Nicaragua come in at the last hour, Just as the bill Is about to pass?” asked Mr. Morgan. “It is because she has some strong power standing behind her.” He said this was a serious moment in the Senate. It was being tendered “a_halter with which to hang Itself for at Ieast tiv years. The United States had stood by si- lently while the British occupied Corinto. And now this proposition of blackmail was presented, which threatened to destroy the bill, He expected and ted a te recommit the bill, Mr. Mergan said an inquiry should be started. It was useless for him to propose an inquiry, as the State Department would decline to answ “This movement of Rod- moon Redriguez was inspired by the British gov- ernment, exclaimed Mr. Morga re for that purpose answered that he did not con- ssertion justified. He felt. 10, “blackmail” was 1} chosen nd Nicaragua's motives were not open to such insinuations. Returning to the Nicaragua canal “ Mr. Vilas said the communication from the minister of a friendly power had dealt a death blow to the pending canal bill. He tcok exception to the statement that lackmai!” was implied by the communt- cation just presented. The letter of Minis- ter Rodriguez, he sald, was dignified and respectful, addressed té the proper brat of the government, the Stat Departm He could not believe the Senate would lis. regard a communication of this grave im- portance, coming from the representative of a frienaly pow The doctmeat which formed the Senator Morgan's remarks in the Sen the Nicaragua canal yesterday was munication from Senor J. D. Rodriguez, minister cf the Greater Republic of Central America. It was a typewritten paper of several pages, dated at the greater ropub- lic’s legation headquarters in this city Jon- uary 15, 1897. It was presented to the Sen- ate by Senator Sherman, as chairman of the committee on foreign relations, having heen forwarded to him by Secretary Olney. Senor Rodriguez in his communication savs he has examined the various Nicarayua canal bills and finds that they are at va: ance in matters of detail with the stipul tions of the contract of April 24, 18ST, le- tween Nicaragua and the canal company. After criticising various details of the bills, Mr. Rodriguez says he does not question the gocd faith of the authors of the various Wills, and adds that he is impelled to ihe course which he is pursuing with the hove of protecting just rights. The document closes in the following words: “It secins evident taut the company is unable to raise money to -fulfill its contract unless the United States of America furnish it therewith, and since that contract excludes the possibility of attaining that result. the undersigned having been duly authorized to do so, proposes to his excelienc retary of State, that the two covernments, relying upon the favorable @isposition of the government of the United States, shall come to a direct understanding on the sub- ject on the basis of the Savaila-Frelinghuy- sen treaty, with such modifications as n be agreed upon, and endeavoring to re: a just arrangement with the Maritime ‘and he bi Wills, EDWARDS & BAR: : Jal@-la NUARY §, 1807. le of the city of Washing- ton, District of Columbia. ‘No. 7541.

Jad-law3w The Inventor of Short! Passes Away. Sir Isaac Pitman, the inventor of the system of shorthand writirg which bears his name, is dead. He had been suffering from a complication of diseases for some time. Isaac Pitman was called the “Father of Shorthand.” His phonetic system, publish- ed in 1837, was noi a pure invention, but he undoubtedly did more to extend and popularize the art and to bring it into use than any other man. Sir Isaac Pitman was born at Trow- bridge, England, in 1813, and was educated for a pedagogue. It was while teaching that he made his phonetic alphabet, and he then began business as a bookseller and made a fortune. His brother, Ben Pitman, applied his system to the prac- Ucal reporting of speeches. At the Instance of Mr. Gladstone, Queen Victoria conferred the order of knight- hood on Isauc Pitman on her birthday ition md System anniversary, May 24, 1895, in_ recogni of his genius. This was after he had been honored at the jubilee of phonography.

Mr. Harmon Explains His Agreement With the Reorganization Committee. Attorney General Harmon has made a staterrent in regard to the agreement made with the reorganization committee cf the Union Pacific railroads, as outlined in yres- terday’s Star. “Upon the defeat of the funding ill in the House,” says the Attorney General, “the President directed me to commence foreclosure proceedings against the Union Pacific Railway Company, first making the best arrangements obtainable for the pro- tection of the government's Interests. N. gotiations were opened with the reorgani- zation committee, and Thursday an agree- ment was made which will result in. im- mediate steps to foreclose. The chief sub- ject of the negotiations was the protection of the government against the risk of eac- Tifice of its claim by a sale at a price which would leave nothing substantial after paying prior liens. This protection is now assured by a guarantee that the gov- ernment shall receive on i:s lien on the aided portions of the Union Pacific and Kansas Pacific lines, including the sinking fund, not less than $45,753,000. The sale will be public, so that the government will receive the benefit of any higher bids up to the full amount of tts claim, principal and interest. “Bills in equity have been prepared, signed by the Attorney General and M George Hoadly, special counsel, and for- warded to St. Louis, where they will be presented to Judge Sanborn, who has juris- diction im all the dis:ricts and whose con- sent to their filing is necessary, because the receivers in charge of the property are made parties defendant. They are original bill and not cross pills in the pending suits. Whether they will proceed as independent bills or to be ordered to stand us cross bills in the pending suits will be determined by the judge, but, in either event, the re- sult will be practically the came, Viz., the sale of the property under the govern- ment’s lien as well as under that of the first mortgage. Separate bills for the fore- closure of the lien on the Kansas Pacific ere in course of preparation. The proposed arrangement was indorsed by the govern- ment directors before it was closed. “It is believed that there will be higher bids, but, if not, an estimate shows that, crediting amounts already received from the company, the government will at least reaiize a sum equivalent to the principal of the subsidy bonds with interest at about 3 1-3 per cent from their issue to the aver- age date of their maturity, or about 3.45 per cent from date of issue to January 1, 1897. “The minimum of $45,754,000 guaranteed the government 1s in cash, so that all re- lations with the property will terminate upon the confirmation of the foreclosure sale. The course to be pursued with re- spect to the Central Pacific has not yet ag gees ee RE Dented the Demerrer. _ Justice Lawrence in the criminal branch of the supreme court, in New York, handed down an opinion denying the demurrer to the indictments for conspiracy found some months ago against the officers of the American Tobacco Company. The case was argued a few wecks ago. ,
