Canal Bill Parsed A It C;un Fr. Committee With !ut Two Oy-posiii"-Voles. Washington, Jan. 10. The Hepburn Nicaraguan canal bill passed tne nouse late yesterday afternoon by pracucaUy a unanimous vote. Only two members out of 310 voted against it. Alessrs. Fletcher (Rep., Minn.) and Lassiter (Dem., Va.) were the two voting in the negative. The opposition to committing the government to the Nicaraguan route attempted to secure amendments to lodge with the president the discretionary power to purchase and complete the Panama canal, if It could be purchased for $40,000,000. The test came on the first vote, when the advocates of an alternative route polled 102 against 170 votes. At each succeeding vote their strength dwindled until Sir. Cannon of Illinois, under whose leadership the fight was made, was unable to get the ayes and nays on a motion to recommit. All other amendments Tailed and the bill passed exactly as it came from the committee. None of the votes except that on the final passage of the bill was a record vote. The debate which preceded the taking of final vote was made memorable by a clash between Mr. Hepburu, the author of the bill, and Mr. Cannon, chairman of the appropriations committee. On several previous occasions they have measured swords over canal legislation. Two years ago a similar bill was passed by a vote of 224 to 30. The bill as passed yesterday authorizes. the president to ecur-from the states of Costa Rica and Nicaragua in behalf of the United States control ot such a portion of the territory belonging to said states as may be desirable and necessary In w hich to excavate lcvnstr-Mtrespett . c -,o th. in. nf , je-ro the wants of modern navigation commerce, and appropriates ffuca sum as may be necessary to secure the control of said territory; ; Section 2 authorizes the president, after securing control of the needed territory, to direct the secretary of war to construct such canal from the Caribbean sea at a point near Greytown in Nicaragua, by way of Lake Nicaragua to a point on the Pacific ocean near Brito, and also to construct proper harbors at the termini of said canal and to make necessary provisions for the defense of the canal and harboi r. Sections 3 an 1 4 an hovlze the president to make such surveys as may be necessary and to employ such persona in constructing the canal as may to bim seem wise, and directs that in the construction of tne canal the river San Juan and Lake Nicaragua shall be used as far as they are available. Section a authorizes the president to guarantee to the states of Costa Rica and Nicaragua the" use of the canal and harbors upon terms to be agreed upon, for all vessels owned by said states, and by citizens thereof. The last section makes a present appropriation of $10,000,000 to carry on this work and authorizes the secretary of war to enter into proper contracts for material and work as may be deemed necessary, such work and material to be paid for as appropriations may be made from time to time. The section fixes the aggregate cost at 80,000,006 to be drawn from the treasury on warrants of the president. Settled at I.t. Washington, Jan. 10. Garcia Merou. Argentine minister in Washington, has jst received the following cablegram from his government: "Argentine Minister, Washington I have the honor to communicate to your excellency that the minister of Chill In Buenos Ayres presented yesterday to this department a note of the protocol about policies, in the same sense which was given to it by this government. With this explanation, all the incidents are definitively terminated. Alcorta, minister of foreign affairs." Shaw Honored at Hon. Des Moines, la.. Jan. 10. Governor Leslie M.
