Fears That Any Treaty lel] Fail of Ratification by Colombia. RN WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—After a ses- sion of less than three hours the Senate to-day adjourned until January 5. To- day’s session was largely given up to'an address by Senator Morgan upon the question of the construction of an isth- mian canal. Morgan contended for the making good of contracts entered into by | President McKinley.with Costa Rica and | Nicaragua. The negotiations of these agreements he characterized as a master- ful act and sald they were about to be |!) Why this was true did not agree with the mindreaders and spirit mediums who had since declared that Mr. McKinley did not mean what he sald in the contracts. He then went on to express apprehension that if the United States did not avail {tself of the oppor- | | tunity to build a canal by the Nlcaragua ||| route none would be built. Attention was called by Senator Mor- gan to the fact that under the Colombian law only the Congress of that country can ratify a treaty. There had been no Congress there since 1899 and there was not likely to be any unless the Panama Canal Company should pay its expenses out of the $3,000,000 on hand or the $40,- 000,000 promised by the United States. He therefore expressed apprehension that a treaty that might be accepted by this Government would fail of action in Co- lombia. o After quoting from the concession grant- | ed to the liquidation of the old Panama | Canal Company, which Morgan said was | || also made a law of Colombia, he said: “It is a surprise to jurists and laymen alike in our country that the Attorney | || General in his opinion given to the Pres- ident upon the right and power of the new Panama Canal Company to revoke & title to the United States of its prop- erty in Panama, omitted to notice the prohibition in the concessions and in the laws of Colombia, through which it de- rived all its property rights in Colombia.” A conference report providing for the payment of the expenses of the anthracite coal strike commission was agreed to. “A bill authorzing the payment of judg- ments amounting to a million dollars to be paid on account of the destruction of property in Hawali In connection with the fight oy the bubonic plague in those | || islands in #899, was passed. The resolu- tion heretofore offered by Patterson of Colorado requiring raflroad companies to supply to the Interstate Commerce Com- mission data as to brakes was adopted.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—The eight- hour labor bill as amended by the SBenate Committee on Education and Labor was to-day reported to the Senate from that committee, accompanied by a written for its action.

W., WASHINGTON, Dec. 20.—Opponents of the omnibus statehcod bill, for the first time since the session began, sald to-day that the measure was beaten. As far as can be learned, there has been no impor- tant break in the sixteen Republicans pledged to the measure, but enough Dem- ocrats have been won over to successfully carry on the campaign of opposition to the end. If Senator Quay shows a disposition to fight the measure to the bitter end, find- ing that he cannot pass his own bill, the single State measure will be abandoned. All efforts made by friends of the omni- bus bill to enlist the sympathies of Presi- dent Roosevelt in their behalf have been unavailing. He has steadfastly refused to toke sides in the controversy. The thredtened charges of “‘commercial- ism in legislation” have had a serious ef- fect' on .many members of the Senate hitherto in favor of admitting all three Territories, ‘Weighing all of these considerations, opponents of the measure have now de- clared themselves.certain of victory, while its friends are doubtful.

Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets should be majeste or sedition paragraphs of the Penal Code, so that during the long years of severe repressive measures the Social- ist were always able to. express their opinions freely and the Reichstag printed and circulated their speeches. ‘Wkile such privileges are not impaired, the opportunities of taking advantage of them under the new rules are limited. At the pleasure of the majority it is pos- sible to introduce and pass any measure in.two days, the rules providing that a day must elapse between the second and third readings of bills. The Socialisty fear that the majority will change the election machinery or adopt a measure on the eve of the general elections that will eliminate free elections. The leaders of the Socialists’ consider that the power of the party as an opposition party is weak- ened, but they have not yet decided on a policy fo follow. The majority in the Reichstag will in all probability limit the debate on the day be- after it, weaken- €ight members to ninety, but others re- gard this estimate as excessive. Herr Bernstein thinks fifteen new members are certain to be elected. A party manifesto just issued asserts that the increased revenue from the new tariff will amount to $52,500,000 yearly, of ‘which $43,750,000 will be from agricultural products. An official statement regarding the forthcoming budget estimates the receipts from the customs in 1903 at $118,000,000, a decrease of $3,750,000. This estimate was made under the exist- ing tariff. The excise receipts are esti- mated at $50,750,000, a decrease of $3,125,000. The receipts from the stamp tax, bills of exchange, Boerse transactions and lot- tery tickefS are fixed at $23,250,000, a de- crease of $375,000. letter, ence is _— Hunter Granted New Trial.
