Urilish Ambassador Gives Views On Canal Treaty. London, July 18.—Lord Pauncefote, British ambassador to the United States, has made the following public statement: "I am having conferences with the Martpiis of Lausdowne, not only about Nicaragua, but also with regard to half a dozen treaties pending between Great Britain aud the United States. These are chieliy concerned with West Indian reciprocity arrangements." "When asked if he thought there was any possibility of arriving at an agreement regarding tho Nicaragua canal before congress reconvened, he replied: "Yes, I sincerely hope so. We are now in the middle of the negotiations which, although they have not yet reached any tangible result, show good promise. Naturally I may not disclose the details, but 1 may say that, when

I return to the United btates at the end of October, I hope to take with me a Nicaragua treaty that will meet the views of both President McKinley and the British cabinet. It goes without saying that the president has made himself cognizant of the opinions of the opinions of the Benate and the secretary of state."
