CANAL WILL BE BUILT
cofeiii-:es of hotii houses anxious FOR A WATERWAY. Therefore, If Senator Remain Firm, the Panama Honte Will lie Agreed on by Congress Soon. WASHINGTON, June 21.-Senator Morgan and Representative Hepburn, representing the Senate and House conferees on the isthmian canal bill, were together today to arrange the preliminaries for the meeting of the conferees. Their associates were not called in during the early hours of the day, but were asked to hold themselves in readiness for an early meeting. Meantime tho friends of the respective projects were active in making plans. Although no formal meeting of the House conferees was held, informal exchanges showed their general attitude. They are first of all for a canal, and while favorable to the Nicaraguan route, they will not insist on that route to the extent of defeating all legislation. As soon as it becomes evident that the Senate will not yield the Spooncr amendment will be accepted as the best solution possible. There is no doubt this is the position of two out of the three House conferees, and it is understood to be shared by all of them. This insures an agreement in conference without much delay, even lf the House does not relieve the conferees of their responsibilities by adopting a motion to concur with the Senate, which there Is good reason to believe Mr. Burton, of Ohio, is ready to make. Mr. Hepburn had a long conference with the President to-night on canal matters. Mr. Hepburn declined to say anything regarding the conference. Representative Payne, of New York, was also among the President's callers to-night. The first formal meeting of the isthmian canal conferees will be at 2 o'clock on Monday. This was arranged at a meeting of Mr. Morgan and Mr. iiepourn mis anemoon. The meeting was devoted to a careful study of the Senate Panama amendment with a view to getting a thorough understanding of all its bearings. It was stated afterward that no conclusions beyond the fact that a meeting of the conferees should be held Monday had been reached. Representative Brownlow, of Tennessee, to-day introduced a Joint resolution providing for a survey of the isthmus of Danen for the ascertainment of its availability for an interoceanic canal. XXX When Senator Quay announced that he would try to take what is known as the statehood bill from Senator Beverldge's committee and pass It through the Senate, Col. Nathaniel McKay, the millionaire legislation "influencer," became very much interested. No other man In Washington in recent years has been so successful as a legislative broker as this weather-beaten old veteran. He has the business reduced to a science. His interest in the statehood scheme, however, is a little different from most of his projects. Some time ago he had occasion t acquire a residence in Oklahoma for the purpose of securing a divorce. The divorce has been secured and that is all over, but while he was waiting for the divorce he went into politics, and has decided that if there is any virtue in manipulation he will try for a United States senatorship when the Territory is made a State. He has told the people that he has great influence with Congress, which is true, and expects to be of great assistance in securing the passage of the statehood bill. He will be forced to wait for the senatorship, however, as Senator Quay changed his mind about forcing passage of the bill. 'XXX J. Watts Kearney has been recommended to the Postoffice Department for postmaster at New Orleans. He probably will be nominated nearly next week. XXX Alexander C. Payne, of Columbus, O., an examiner in the Department of Justice, has been appointed disbursing clerk of that department, vice Henry Richten, who was arrested on Thursday for embezzling government funds. XXX The controller of the currency to-day approved the First National Bank of Chicago as a reserve agent for the American National Bank of Indianapolis. xxx The President to-day discussed the Cuban reciprocity with several members of Congress. His callers included Senators Allison, Foraker, Proctor and Beverldgc and Representative Long, of Kansas. They called at different times, but all touched upon the subject of Cuban reciprocity. From a source close to the President it is learned that he is still firm for reciprocity. If this cannot be accomplished by a bill he will attempt to secure it by a treaty. This treaty may be sent to the Senate soon or the President may call an extra session of the Senate for the middle of summer. He is determined to secure reciprocity for Cuba if possible. xxx Commander Richard Wainwright, U. S. N., will complete his four years' term as superintendent of the Naval Academy next June, and probably will be succeeded at Annapolis by Capt. Willard 11. Prownson,at present in command of the battleship Alabama. Commander Wainwright will be assigned to the command of a good ship commensurate with his rank and gallant services. EDWARD IS BETTER. (CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE.) ty's entrance Into the army. It was the day the United States declared war on Spain. Ascending the steps of the throneroom, Mr. White anel his staff were met by the Spanish ambassador and his staff. They shook hands and exchanged rather cool salutations. The incident was the talk of diplomatic circles. Mr. White was specially commissioned to represent the United States at the celebration of the fiftieth anniversary of the entrance of the late King into the Saxon army. Tho last American minister accrediteei to tho Saxon court was the late George Bancroft, who, oddly enough, was never recalled from Saxony, Bavaria and the other states when he was appointed minister to the empire, and these courts were never notified of Mr. Bancroft's death. Hence it Is a standing pleasantry that Mr. Bancroft is still American minister to these kingdoms. Mr. Bancroft was accredited minister in 1S;S to the North German Confederation, and in 1S71 to the German Empire. He was recalled nt his own request in 1S74. He died in IS'Jl. Tho new King of Saxony is chiefly known for his military tastes and considerate treatment of private soldiers. He was commander for thirty years of the Twelfth Army Corps, which is Saxony's contingent to the imperial armies, and sternly put down the mistreatment of soldiers by ofiicers and severely punished petty brutalities on the part of subalterns am! noncomml.'siop.ed oM'iC-ers. His secret '.cree on the subject in lvl attracted great attention when the Vorv.aerts divulged It. The King is a capable musician, plays the piano, has go, id taste and technical finish and often gives musical parties at his house, where h and his daughter, the Princess Mathilde, play duets. King George has attended chamber music concerts assiduously and is the patron of many musical undertakings. LOMION STAGE EWS. Theaters Dolus? o Good Business, lrlth Irving, Terry mid Other n Stars.

LONDON, June 21. A bitter surprise awaits the colonial secretary, Joseph Chamberlain, in connection with his approaching conference with the colonial premiers, who are now in London for the purpose of attending tho coronation of King Edward. For months the government has been urging Parliament not to express any kind of opinion upon the feasibility of preferential trade with the colonies, and when introducing measures tending to such an end it has warned off di?cus?ion on the ground thot it wenild not be fair to do or say anything until the colonial premiers had a chance to announce their views on the subject. Unfortuntely for the government, the. premiers hael already practically come to a decision that they would refuse to make any suggestions until the Imperial government puts forwarel its own intentions. That is exactly what the Cabinet not only does not want to do, but cannot do; hence a perfectly tame and futile ending may be safely prophesied for the muchadvertised conference with the colonial premiers. r Movements of Americans. BERLIN, June 21. Nearly all the Americans who have been residing here have left the German capital, principally for London. James Ford Rhodes, the historian, has gone to Dresden for a fortnight.

MolseleM nnd IInilefts Cannon. NEW YORK, June 21. Colonel Humbert, a French artillery ofllcer, has invented, according to the Paris correspondent of the Tribune, an apparatus which, applied to a rifle or to a rapid-firing cannon, completely suppresses the flash, sound and smoke, even of black powder. Colonel Humbert says: "I have succeeded la converting the explosive powder, which has b.en known for centuries, into a motor power giving Impulse to projectiles from rlfle3 and cannon without report, without smoke, without flash, without recoil and without any diminution of force or effect." The military authorities attach supreme Importance to this discovery, which they consider will bring- about a complete revolution in the methods of warfare. AVIIhelm nnd Henry Orarloii.
