VALIDITY OF CANAL TITLE.
Majority and Minority Reports of the Senate
Committee.
Washington, March 21. Senator
Morgan, from tbo committee on isth
mian canals, has presented to tho sen
ate tho majority nnd minority reports
o! that committee on tho question of
the validity of the titloof tho new Pan
ama Canal Company nnd Uh right to
transfer tho Panama canal property to
tho United States for $40,000,000. Tho
objections of tho majority to the title
held by that company nro baeod Inrgoly
on the relations of tho canal company
Ot tbo governments: of Franco nnd Co
lombia, but tbo committee also iUh
cusses ut length many other phases of
the question. Among these is the rela
tion of the shareholders who subscribed
$200,000,000 to tbo old Panama com
pany, whose interests, tho report holds,
cannot Ixi lightly regarded. On this
point tho report says:
'Tho spectacle of the United States
congress nuthorzing tho president, us
tho agent of our government, to conduct
a trado with such a corporation (tho
now Panama Canal Company) without
'consulting France as to tho claim of in
dopondoneu it (the new Panama Canal
Company) nssortn, will bo entirely now
in the history of nations, and its con
'sequences cannot be lightly disregarded.
"Among tliopo is tho eerious danger
'of tbo United States being drawn into
disagreeable relations witli a large and
influential body of tho worthy peoplo of
Franco, whoso friendship for uh art been
cherished during the entire life oLour
republic, and had its origin in magnau
Imous Hncrlflcos for our country when
this country was in tbo travail pf its
birth. Unfortunately, tho report of
tho Isthmian canal commission reveals
tho fact that tho men who mado this
pffer aro chief among thoso who de
frauded thofo (100,000 or 800,000
Frenchmen of $250,000,000."
Speaking further ot tho obligations
of tho now company to the old, tho ma
jority say:
"If Mr. Eiffol nnd his associates got
$40,000,000 from tho Amcriran peoplo,
it is well that they aro sheltered Irom
tho claims of these defrauded and do
spoilod bondholders and stockholders
by tho alleged despotism of French
courts. They would never oecapo jus
tice in Americnn courtB, and would be
onoyvo uio-Donuiioiiiors, nua to
tho stockH bearing Interest, uoforn ap
plying any of it to tbo profits of thoir
speculation."
Tho minority report, which was pro
pared by Senator Kittridgo, complntely
upholds the tltlo of tho new Panama
company, as will bo fcon from tbo fol
lowing extract, which constitutes its
oponing paragraph:
"Tho tltlo of tho now Panama com
pany to its concessions nnd other prop
erty appears from tho facts nnd docu
ments which have been laid before tho
subcommittee to bo clear and freo from
nny complications. For n transfer of
its. concessions to tbo United States, tbo
coni-ont of Colombia is roqulsito, but
this consent haH been given by tbo gov
ernment of that country us fully as it
can now bo given. In cbbo of purchnso
of tho cannl by tho United States, dif
ferent concessions and different rights
must bo obtnined by treaty botwoon
thiH country and Colombia, and such a
treaty would necessarily involve tho
consent of tho senate to tbo transfer by
tho company of its rights nnd property
on tho ishtmus to tho United Stipes.
Such a treaty Colombia has shown and
declared its readiness to make. In
evory other point, tho right of tho now
Panama Cunul Company to transfer its
property to tho United States is per
fectly clear. Every link in tho chnin
of its title, nnd every stop In tho courno
by which it became in n position to fell
its property, froo and clear, is plain nnd
satisfactory."
