Senator Teller also {ound something he did not like in the Republican platform and is consequently not likely to be consulted by Mr. Me- Kinley in the matter of the selection of his cons‘itu'ional advisers. Tux strong resolutions adopted by the coast defense convention, re- cently held at Tampa, Florida, will strike a note of accord in the mind« of the people generally.

A Sr. Lovts civii engineer has! which it is proposed so to narrow St. Louis. He proposes to protect | the banks during the entire course beginning at New Orleans, with con- crete, at an estimated cost of $1, 000,000,000. He figures that this work properly done will, on the theory of the Eads jetties at the delta, cause the cutting out and deepening of the channel so as to ad- mit the larger sea going vessels to its navigation. His plan is to work all the convicts in the United States on the improvement, quartering them on government boats, properly con- structed for their safe keeping. He thinks the work can be done in ten ears’ time. This bas the appesr- its importance demands, have been built up by the fostering care of the government through a system of subsidies and bounties, and from ‘hem the English people are eceiving an abundant harvest. The building of armored war vessels in this country has given a great im- petus to shipbuilding and the num- ber of large ship yards has greatly incressed within the last few years. The disadvantages under which the American builder labors from the in- spectcr Lester will recommend the] creased cost of labor here, which en-| ney 3. removal of Mr. ters into the cost not only of the actual operation of ship construction | penitentiary, but Mr. Happy claims | but also of every piece of iron, steel the charges made against groundless and that a full and un-| very important. and wood that is used therein, are Sowe means of off- setting this disadvantage must be devised either by bounties and sub- sidies or by tariff discrimination in favor of goods imported in Ameri- can bottoms. Tur impression prevails to a con- siderable extent among senators that the act of Minister Rodriquez, of the greater Republic of Central Awerica, in submitting to this gov- eroment, by direction of his own government, a claim that the Ameri- can company holding the concession fiom Nicaragua for the construction of the Nicaraguan canal has forfeited | its charter, has its moving cause in the machinations of England. The first and most important effect of the letter will therefore be to hold up the arbitration treaty. Should that impression be generally accepted among the senators, it would no doubt effectually prevent the ratifi- cation of the treaty. Should Eng- land be found, at the very time when she is professing the utmost friend- ship for this government, and seek- ing a convention under which all possible differences may be amicably settled, seeking through diplomatic channels to circumvent us and gain! not only an important commercial advantage, but one of such strategic importance as this maritime canal, ; she may forever cease to hope for ai treaty of this character.

The minister does not minee his words but makes it perfect- ly plain that what is desired and ex- pected is for the company to step down and out. Senator Morgan thinks he sees in the movement the fine Italian hand of the English Prime Minister, in an effort to cap- ture this most desirable water route between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, and shut America out from one of the most important acquisi- sitions toward which the attention of our peeple bas been turned in recent years. The letter is calculated to create not a little interest in the canal matter and may lead to some spirited diplomatic correspondence. Secreraky Scnaap, of the Y. M. C.
