FEARS AMERICAN MONOPOLY IN WEST Berlin Government Thinks It Likely United States May Corral All New World Markets by Similar Protocols, BERLIN, March 14.—Germany wishes to Becure a reciprocity treaty with Cuba and the United State similar to that now pend- ing between the two republics. The re- quest will be made as soon as the pending freaty is ratificd. It is also intimated that other governments intend to request the same reatment, While annoyed at the lower tariffs granted United States trade, no one su- poses that even a collective protest on the part of the continental countrics would ¢ause elther the United States or Cuba to recede. But Germany's position is to be defined clearly, so that the United Statas may not complain when Germany gives other nations preferential treatment The chief fear is that should the Cuban treaty be accepted and work well, similar treaties may be arranged by the United States with Mexico, Brazil and Argentine, ultimately resulting in America obtaining a monopoly of all the new world markets.

SPOONER DEFENDS ~TITLE [CONVENTION OF ~ MILKMAIDS Olaims New Panama Company Amply Able to Bell Conoession. SAYS COLOMBIA HAS RECOGNIZED CHANGE Franchise Has Been Sold Twice and is Now About to Be Bought in Similar hion by United WASHINGTON, Marcn 14. — Without transacting any business the senate today went into executive session. Previous to the closing of the doors the officlal stenographers and all the employes of the officlal offices were sworn to secrecy and one of the newspaper representatives was invited Into the chamber to make a detailed report of the proceedings, with the understanding that it should be published after the vote. Spooner Rep % to Morgan. Senator Spooner occupled five hours in reply to Senator Morgen's opposition to the canal treaty. Much of his speech was legal in its char- acter, designed to sustaln the valldity of the canal title. He sald there could be no doubt that the company came legiti- mately Into possession of the cunal conces- sion and having so acquired the property bad an undoubted right to tramster it to the United States or any other purchaser. Passing to Senator Morgan's religlous fear, he sald under that treaty there would be no pretext for the interference by Colom- blan authorities with the religious conduct or affliations of Americans in the canal zone. He ridiculed the idea that by mak- ing a treaty with the government the United States could be accused of taking a position against the minority party in the country with which the agreement was made. Traces Canal History. Returning to the validity to the title, Senator Spooner traced the history of the liquidation concerning the concession through the French courts. Beginning with the transfer of the original concession to M. De Lesseps in 1879, he sald in 1888, when the company organized by De Lesseps became involved, the courts Intervened and after appointing a Jig:idator authorized the organization of a new company, which is the company from which the United States secures its title; that the new com- pany was recognized by a law passed by the Colombian government in 1890, which confirmed the original concession and made provision for payments of stock and money to Colombia. Other subsequent ac's of the Colombian government were such as to leave no doubt of a perfect understanding between it and the mew canal company. Towards the closo of his address Senator Spoomer was questioned by a number of democratic senators particularly Senator Morgan. In reply he said there were some features of the treaty he would prefer to have other- wise, but the terms were the best it had been possible to eecurq, and he belleved expediency demanded at the treaty bo aceepted. Senator Depew referred to the critictsm that the canal would be injurious to rall- road interests and sald that as a railroad man he was thoroughly convinced that such would not be the case. On the contrary, the construction of the canal would stim- ulate all lines of business and the railroads would share in that prosperity. Senator Bacon and Senator Morgan of- fered a number of amendments which will be voted on on Monday. COLOMBIANS OPPOSE A TREATY Vice Pres fean t Reyes Thinks Amer- Interpretation Has Avoused Hostility.

He seemed to belleve, however, that the interpretation the United States put on obligatory rights to malntain free transit across the isthmus and its pro- posed manner of entorcing these rights had created an unfavorable impression throughout Colombla. The politicians who would be called upon to decide the fate of the treaty would not be likely to forget, he sald, the humiliating incidents which occurred during the recent fnsurgent hostilities. i eneral Reyes ip no way oxpressed him- gelf as opposed to the construction of the canal by the United States.
