year, and the refined product will sell at

SIGNED THE TREATY
Hay and Pauncefote Close
the Nicaraguan Matter.
IT NOW GOES TO THE SENATE
United States Will Be the Sole Guar.
nntorof the Neutrality of the
Waterway Comment of the
English. Press.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18. The new Hay
Pauncefote treaty was signed today at
12:05 by Secretary Hay, for the United
States, and Lord Pauncefote, the British
Ambas?ador. for Great Britain. This treaty
is Intended to replace the first Hay
Pauncefote treaty. That convention was
amended so extensively by the United
States Senate at Its last session that the
British Government declined to ratify It.
Within a few weeks negotiations began
afresh between Secretary Hay and Lord
Pauncefote, which have just resulted In
the signature of the new treaty, drawn
with special reference to the objections
found by the Senate with the' first treaty.
From a due sense of the courte.sy which
must be observed towards the United
States Senate wherever a treaty Is con
cerned, the State Department Is estopped
from making public the text of the new
convention, and that will remain secret
until the Senate itself shall break the
seal of confidence. It is said at the State
Department that the various publications
which have been made of the alleged text
of the treaty are all erroneous and con-
jectiiral, though, in view of the rather
free admissions that have been made of
the purpose of the negotiations, it has
been possible by the use of the text of
the first treaty to construct one similar in
general terms to the new convention.
The principal point of difference between
the new and the failed treaty is the with
drawal of Great Britain from the joint
guarantee of the neutrality of the canal,
thus leaving the. United States the sole
guarantor. The excision of the old pro
vision respecting the right to fortify the
canal leaves that right by Inference op
tional with the United States. All com
merce of whatever nationality passing
through the canal will fare alike; there
will be no discrimination in rates in fa
vor of United States shipping.
Otherwise the new treaty is in scope
similar to last year's treaty. It replaces
technically -the Clayton-Bulwer treaty,
concluded, on April '19, 1850. By the terms
of that old convention the United States
and Great Britain agreed that neither
should seek any advantages in rights of
transit across the Isthmus. By the new
convention Great Britain yields her right
in favor of the United States, which is
thus at liberty to construct a canal.
Nothing more remains to be done so far
as this treaty is concerned before the
Senate meets, or, indeed, until the treaty
shall have been ratified, rejected or
amended. If It should be ratified, the
State Department will proceed immedi
ately to negotiate the treaties with Cot-a
Rica and Nicaragua for which it already
has arranged in protocols pending before
the Senate, which will permit the canal to
be constructed and prescribe the terms
upon which the consent of Nicaragua and
Costa Rica Is given. It was in anticipa
tion of this action, it is presumed, that
the Nicaraguan Government only recent
ly denounced the treaty of trade and com
merce with the United States. This treaty
contains sections conveying rights as to
canal construction which are to be re
placed by more modern provisions.
There was no particular ceremony con
nected with the signature of the impor
tant convention. Lord Pauncefote has
been indisposed for several days past and
it wa3 not expected that the treaty
would be signed before the end of the
current week. However, to the surprise
of the State Department officials, the Am
bassador appeared at the State Depart
ment at noon an'd the work of signing
the treaty was soon disposed of. The
scene was in the historic diplomatic
chamber of the State Department, and
besides the principals, Secretary Hay and
Lord Pauncefote, there. were present Mr.
Sidnev Smith, chief of the Diplomatic
Bureau of the State Department; Mr.
Percy Wyndham, the second secretary of
the British Embassy and William Gwln
and Edward Savoy, the Secretary ot
States private messenger, who attended
to the affixing of the seals.
The treaty was signed by Secretary Hay
with a gold pen in a silver holder, which
has been used in the signing of other
conventions, and is the personal property
of the Secretary.
COMMENT OF ENGLISH PRESS.
It la Generally Admitted That the
Move Is One of Gain.
LONDON, Nov. 19. Except as affording
a chance for the opposition journals to
attack the government and the Foreign
Secretary, Lord Lansdowne, the signing
of the new isthman canal convention does
not excite strong Interest In Great Britain.
It Is generally admitted that the British
have nothing to gain by a retention of the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, while they have
much to gain by the construction of the
canal.
The MorrMng Post congratulates both
.countries on the completion of the treaty.
and says It is glad that the convention of
1900 has been revised in accordance with
American wishes. The Daily Mail fears
that the signing may not terminate for
ever a troublesome dispute, and thinks
Canada ought to receive some equivalent
for the concessions which probably have
been made. The Dally Chronicle says:
"Lord Lansdowne has surrendered every
thing without compensation. The govern
ment has climbed down from the position
it had deliberately chosen, and although
the disappearance of the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty will not cause much regret, many
people will sigh for the business cabinet
which Lord Rosebery recently suggested."
In conclusion the Dally Chronicle char
acterizes a new treaty as "a full accept
ance by Great Britain of the Monroe doc
trine," and says: "It would be strange.
Indeed, if the Senate should object to such
a one-sided bargain.
The Times says:
"It is premature to assume that, all dif
ficulties have been overcome, and that the
Senate will ratify the treaty, but Eng
land has no reason to regard the con
struction of the canal with alarm or sus
picion. We hope the treaty will be dealt
with by our American kinsmen in the
same rpirlt of International good-will with
which it certainly will be received in Lon
don." The Westminster Gazette publishes an
article contending that even from a Brit
ish view point It Is desirable that the
United States should build exclusively
and guarantee the neutrality -of the isth
mian canal, and that if Lord Lansdowne
obtained full commercial privileges in
the canal for Great Britain the
treaty will "not be wholly one-sided.
The ertlclv concludes with advising the
public to expect to be prepared to accept
a settlement which will "substantially
give us all we want, but which outwardly
will not appear to be a triumph of diplo
macy. By the blundering of American
statesmen we were put In an embarrass
ing position last year, and we will show
some magnanimity If for the sake of peace
and good will we approach the new set
tlement without a recollection of that
event. Let us remember that we have
had some success in recent dealings witn
America. The Behring Sea award and
Venezuela treaty were both substantially
In our favor, and If we get open water in
the canal we shall be the gainers by the
loss of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty."
The Pall Mall Gazette takes a similar
view of the matter, and says:
"We are surrendering a right we never
would seriously think of exercising, but
which might be infringed at any moment
to the serious detriment of British dignity.
On the other hand, it is understood that
compensation will be found in the absence
of heavy toll or tariff restrictions. The
canal is expected to be thrown open to the
world, and the opening of that door will

be the price the British Government ob
tained for the abandonment of the Clayton-Bulwer
treaty."
The St. James Gazette says:
"We have confidence that the American
people will recognize In the abandonment
of the Clayton-Bulwer treaty a further
sign of the value we set on their good
will and the earnestness of our desire to
help forward their aspirations to great
ness. Hearty relationship between mother
and daughter are more to us than aca
demic treaty rights."
ISTHMIAN CANAL COMMISSION.
Its Report Will Be Placed In the
Hands of the President This Week.
WASHINGTON, Nov. 18. The report of
the Isthmian Canal Commission will, it is
said, be placed In the hands of the Presi
dent at the end of the present week. The
document Is completed practically, but the
necessity of including some important
data concerning engineering problems
makes it Impossible to submit the report
immediately. The Commlslonere haye
reached an agreement upon all the salient
facts to be presented in the report, and, as
already indicated in the Associated Press
dispatches, the commission favors the
Nicaraguan project, the cost of which is
placed at about 75 per cent of the Panama
project.
SUIT FOR A RECEIVER.
John Alexander Dovrle Having Trou
ble With His Employes.
CHICAGO, Nov. 18. Samuel Stevenson,
a brother-in-law of John Alexander
Dowle, the "faith healer," today entered
suit to have a receiver appointed for the
Section Lace Industries, one qf Dowie's
enterprises, for which he imported CO
lacemakers from England. Stevenson
himself came from England. He alleges
that Dowle has withheld from him re
muneration which had been promised. Ho
charges that Dowie offered him a bonus
of $50,000, $100,000 of the company's stock
and the superintendency of the business
at a good salary. He alleges that he got
nothing but the superintendency, and that
Dowie beguiled him into signing an inno
cent document which In reality gave
Dowie entire ownership of the lace com
pany. Endowment Rank, K. of P.

that "reclprocltyought tp be given a prac
tical test by the ratification of one or
more of the pending treaties." He Is op
posed to some, but believes the French
treaty ought to be ratified. In contrast,
however, Senator Hale Is quoted as un
alterably opposed to all of these treaties.
He says he is in favor of the kind of reci
procity introduced by Blaine, encourag
ing the interchange of our own products
which other countries do not produce for
their products which we do not produce.
He does not favor the kind of reciprocity
which la sough.t for today by free-traders
and by foreign rivals. He does not be
lieve In reciprocity which cuts down the
duty on French, British, West Indian and
Canadian products that compete with our
own, ,and that are grown or manuiac
tured by half-paid laber. He thinks pres
ent prosperous conditions should not be
Imperiled by a "wild hunt for new mar
kets," which will never compare witn, our
vast trade with civilized countries. "1
am not a dreamer over what is called 'the
trade of the Orient " he continues,
"which, aside, from trade with Japan, in
which we are already fully established,
cuts no figure except in the Imagination."
The President's time today was largely
taken up in the discussion of reciprocity.
Senator Cullom, of Illinois, discussed the
matter with him, previous to being Inter
viewed, and Representative Dalzell, of
Pennsylvania, had something to say to
him on that subject. A delegation of ag
rlcultural implement manufacturers, con-
slsting of James Deerlng, of Chicago; A.
B. Farquhar, of York, Pa., ana; W. V. I
Barker, of New York, who are here to
attend the reciprocity convention, which
meets tomorrow, presented a memorial
strongly urging that something be done.
The delegation told the President that In
its opinion the time for action had come. "Third That on cigars, cigarettes and
Reciprocity had been talked and preached cheroots, all kinds, manufactured In
about for years, and unless a decisive step Cuba, mentioned In paragraph 217 of the
was taken now which would affect the United States customs tariff, a duty of
whole subject, it might as- well be aban- j $2 50 per pound be levied, and the sur
doned. The members of the delegation tax of 25 per cent ad valorem altogether
said they had no particular interest in any
of the treaties, but thought, taken alto
gether, that the Frpnch treaty more near
ly represented the best possibilities In the
way of reciprocity, and that if It could
be ratified a distinct victory would be
won.
Mr. Dalzell, who talked with the Presi
dent for almost half an hour, is hostile
to all reciprocity. "The only reciprocity
I favor," said he, "is reciprocity on the
basis of non-competing articles. The 20
per cent cut on textile fabrics in the
French treaty would destroy the textile
Industries of Pennsylvania and New Jer
sey. While there is just now much talk
! of reciprocity. In my opinion nothing will
oe aone aunng tne coming session or
Congress."
Representative Roberts, of Massachu
setts, another of the President's callers
.today, said there was a strong sentiment
for reciprocity in New England. "But,"
i said he, "we do not want tho sort of reel -
procity that will open our markets to for
eign competitors and give us nothing in
return." Mr. Roberts said that the leather
men of the country were organizing to
secure the removal of the duties on hides.
Jones a High-Tariff Man.
Representative Jones, of Washington,
was interviewed today. He said the
growth and development of the Pacific
Coast in recent years is largely due to
the present tariff law, and that he himself
is a high-tariff man. He will, however,
favor some changes In Internal taxes If
they can be made without disturbing ex
isting conditions. Mr. Jones -is decidedly
in favor of a subsidy that will build up
shippipg on the Pacific Coast, but resists
such measures as will give preference to
ships built for i?peed on the Atlantic.
"We want a subsidy on tonnage," said
he, "that will encourage the shipping of
freight in American bottoms the thing
especially desired for the benefit of agri
cultural and commercial Interests. A sub
sidy chiefly for speed would go Into ttv$
pockets of owners of the greyhounds on
the Atlantic that ply between New York
and Queenstown."
CUBANS EXPECTED TODAY.
Text of the Reciprocity Treaty They
Will Present to the President.
NEW YORK, Nov. 18. A delegation of
prominent Cubans, who are coming to
this country to present to President
Roosevelt a petition for reciprocity be
tween the Island of Cuba and the United
States, Is expected to arrive on the steam
ship Morro Castle tomorrow. The delega
tion represents the general center of
merchants and manufacturers of the Isl
and of Cuba and other economic organi
zations of Cuba. It consists of Louis V.
Piaco, Gustav Bock, Dlonlslno Vclasco,
Alfonso Pesant and Francisco Gamba, the
latter being the president of the general
center of merchants and manufacturers
of the Island of Cuba. In this city those
named will be joined by Simon Dumols,
Louis Franceko. Miguel Mcndosea and
j Juan Pedro, prominent Cubans who are
already here.
By previous arrangement, all the cham
bers of commerce, trades unions and oth
er commercial, Industrial and economic
organization In Cuba, as well as the
Municipal and Provjnclal Courts, held
special meetings on October 3 and gave
their approval to a petition which had
been prepared for presentation to Presi
dent Roosevelt by the general convention.
The Indorsements and petition were pre
sented to General Wood and by him for
warded to Washington. The petition
J asks:
"First, that molasses and raw sugars,

j tured in Cuba, be admitted In the United

"Second That tobacco leaf, grown in
