The subject under | | discussion was the status of the Panama | | canal treaty. The situation with regard | to the treaty as it has. developed in the LSenmu is giving ‘the administration and ‘m SUppOrters grave concern. The Presi- dent -is - exXceedingly ~ anxious that -the treaty should be ratified at the earliest possilile moment, veét the indications now are - thiat serious obstructions: may- be placed in_the way- of ratification; - The'conference- held to-day was with at view “of. ascertai if possible .what could Te done to ten ‘consideration -of the treaty by the Senate. An effort i to Le madé (o get the. treaty.out of commil- tee with a’ favorable report. - That the ef- fert will be. successtful .is reasonably _cer- tain, . but then its (roubles, in the preseit vicw of the matier, will-anly have begun. Scrator Morgan, - chairman -6f the Com- _mittee on- lnterncearic: Canals, takes the ground that’ the negotiations ‘conduct | by thie-State Department with Mr.-He! ran, representing Colomb &s he holds that Mr: Herr: seds ithe necéssary autliority to make a treaty. binding upon Lis. country, and it 15’ understood that he will use his utmost efforts fo-defeat the treaty in: its present | | form. _Indeed, the intimation has reached fhé .

Such action, it is well nderstood, -will. seriously. delay final ac- | | tion: upon-it; even if it -should not result in the défeat of its ratification.

While the treaty | will not fail; even if it should not be rati- fied at this session, the officials fear that the delay which would result from failure of the Senate to take final action might involve serious consequences. i @ bbb e @ FIHE DAMMGES 0S5 OFFIGE Millions. NEW YORK, Jan. 31.—Fire broke out to-day in & laboratory on the second fldor of the United States Assay Office, | which is next door to the Sub-Treasury, and destroyed a portion of the roof and | upper story and some of the apparatus. i Chief Assayer Torrey 'said the loss on| the appartus probably would not exceed 42000, and the loss on the buildmg would be nominal. He thought the business of [ the assay office, which = amounted to | about seventy-five assays a day, would not be intérrupted longer than three or | believed fhiat. nitric acld, which is used in. testing bullion, was the cause of the fire.. He 'said-it might have eaten into the wooden flue Which. leads from the glass basins where the gold and silver bars are melted and subjected to chemi- cal action. The flames, which were first seen in one these flues, soon got beyond control. + An alarm was turned.in and fhe sixty- five Government employes-in the build- | ing hastened to save the millions of treasure in theif case. -There was about | $10,000,600 in bulllon in “the :vaults -and | about §1,500,000 lying outside in various parts: of ‘the building. . The $1,500,000 and e T | ‘about’ §100,000 ‘in ‘a melted.state, as well COURT HOLDS NEELY'S Sy the books of account and record, were hastily locked in the vauits. Then the employes hurried out of the building for their- own saftey. Assayer Torrey, who has’ been em- ployed in- the building for forty years, | sald it was the first serfous fire in the assay Gffice. Several times the flues for | eonducting the fumes up the chimney had caught fire, but the flames always had been extinguished by men in the laboratory.

LONDON, Jan. 31 —Both Embassador Choate and Mrs. Florence' Maybrick her- self recently recelved rebuffs in the at-: tempts to gain the latter's freedom. Home Secretary Akers-Douglass replied to the embassy's representations and to the im- prisoned woman's appeais that he saw no grounds for her release.
