Another .Schcmn I'ropospil to Complete thn Illg Ditch. COLON , March 15. ( Correspondence of the Associated Press. ) The announcement received from Paris that M. Ilartlssol pro poses to cut a atone tunnel , six miles long , through the high level or the Panama canal Into which the River Chagres Is to be turned and through sluces to discharge It Into the excavated earth , counting on the force of the stream to carry it off to the Pacific ocean , has caused no little consternation among the Isthmian people , and with ap parent good reason. The Chagres discharges Itself Into the Atlantic , and though during the dry season It Is not of much extent , being then iiulto narrow , yet during thn rainy season , from April to October , It be comes a torrential river , known frequently to rlso six to eight meters within twelve hours , with a ( lowing during a freshet of 70,000 cubic feet per second. The first plan adopted for the canal was a tldo level , and .then during the Eiffel boom , ona with ten 'locks' , afterwards a central lake and lastly this present plan of M. Ilartlssol , which , ac cording to the opinion of many engineers. In Impracticable. Further efforts are being made In Bogota In secure another proroga of the canal con cession from the Colombian government , A protest against this will bo sent from the Isthmus. Developments on canal matters are ex pected by the 31st lust. It has been de cided to construct at La Iloca , ( ho Pacific entrance to the canal , a largo pier along side of which all Pacific steamers can go and Ischargo Into Panama cars all Pacific coast cargoes and passengers , thus saving the enormous expense entailed upon the Panama Railway company by the keeping of a lleet of launches which hitherto have been en gaged In transport service from alongside ships to the Panama wharf , besides avoid ing delay In waiting for the tide , which Is twenty-one feet. On his recent visit General Newton , president of the Panama railroad , Inspected the site and the estimates are now bcng ) prepared for currying out the work , to do which the concurrence of the Panama Canal company Is necessary. The United States representatives on the Isthmus liavu asked the authorities at Washington for the ap pointment of a consular agent for ( lie Island of San Andres or Old Providence , to protect American Interests. Colombians residing at niuellelds have sent n mission to President Nunez for the pur pose of having a consul appointed at the Mosquito reservation for the protection of their Interests , latu proceedings having ren \ dered such action necessary. The Colombian congress , at Its last ses sion having passed a law placing certain re striction oo the tobacco trade , Including the obligation of growers to sell their produce - duce to the government , n hue and cry was raised In the districts where that product Is grown and threats wcro made to burn plantations. In fact a revolution wna threatened If the terms of the law were carried out , and the result Is that the gov ernment has decided on suspending the exe cution of the act until the next meeting of congress In July next. I.OKT IIKH Dlnappcariinrn of the Worhrr * on the llurk Archer. VICTORIA , I ) . C. , .March 21. The bark Archer , found abandoned and towed Into Clayoquot yesterday by the steamer Maude , carried a crew of about fourteen all told. The following additional particulars have been obtained from Lighthouse Keeper D.ikon of Carmanah : "Captain Roberts of the tug Maude told mo that the Archer's masts had all been cut away , and that one boar was still In the davits. There was no sign of the crew. I think that the disaster must have occurred about 11 a. m. on'Sunday , the 18th Inst. , as the wind was blowing a strong southeast gate before that ancf at 11 o'clock It sud denly shifted tn the southwest , accompanied by a terrific snow and hall storm. The heaviest swell was running that day that ' wo have had this winter. I think the Archer wan struck by a squall , that she shifted ballast , throwing her on her beams ends , and then the crew cut away her masts to try and right her. I am afraid there Is no hope for the crew , or they would have turned up ere this. We have had very fine weather arid smooth seas since this day , the 20th inst. Captain Roberts reports the Archer's hull as good as over. " The Archer was an Iron bark of "SO tons , gross , owned by P. IrcJalc & Co. of London. She was bound from Victoria to Portland In ballast to- load wheat for Europe. She was towed out on March 16 by the American tug Pioneer. .MOUII.I/.IM ; TROOPS. iperlincntn : Ilelni ; Miido liy the Itrltlsh Government In Canada. WINNIPEG , March 24. The British gov ernment has been making some Interesting experiments In rushing troops across the American continent from the Atlantic to the Pacific , with n view to determining in Just how brief a space of time marines could bo put aboard British war vessels In the Pacific in the event of trouble with Russia In Chinese waters. A number of special trains have been run over the Canadian Pacific at an average speed of twenty-five miles an hour from Halifax , N. S. , to Esquimau , B. C. , where England Is now building extensive fortifications. Special engines have been used and the marines have been quartered In colonist sleepers , with a specially built cookIng - Ing car attached , and' the trip was made in very qul ! ; time. It Is supposed that the cx- perlrui.-s were mode partially to demon strate the military value of the Canadian Pacific to the English government , with a view toward securing further subsidies. It Is pointed out that the road runs from ocean * ta'uccan through British territory , and that In the event of trouble with Russia troops could be rushed across and reach the scene of action about as quickly as the czar's troops _ could bo sent to Vladlvostock by the T ransslberlan"railroad. .

WILLIAM'S ' AMBITION Eo Was Not Satisfied with the Conclusion of the Rucso-Qennan Treaty. SEES A MENACE IN THE UNITED STATES His Efforts to Promote the Interests of Eu ropean Manufacturers. HIGH POSITION OF THE YOUNG MAN Ho Will Seek to Further the Interests of Germany and All Europe. MIQUEL IS BOOMED FOR CHANCELLOR 'Disappointed Place Hunters Charged with thn .Movement A-RollIng Tlio Now Havre Consul Latest News from the I'litherliind. ( Copyrighted IMI by tlio Associated Press. ) BERLIN , March 24. Emperor William's high-flying intentions do not stop at the suc cess achieved by the Russo-Gcrman commer cial treaty. He recognizes that the unbounded resources of America ronstltutR n xtnmllnir menace to European trade and Industry , and , althougji ho has the greatest sympathy for America and Americans , the emperor Is also awake to the danger of a repetition of such a block as that Influenced by the McKlnlcy policy. His Idea Is that Europe must be pre pared to take a common stand against any commercial measure which declare , not against any Individual nation In Europe , but against all nations in Europe. The well known ambition of the emperor to bring about friendly commercial relations between the European nations showed Itself years ago by the calling of the International con gress in the Interest of the better protection of worklngmen. Hla many travels enabled him to look upon such matters with an eye which does not halt at the borders of Ger many. The movement spoken of , though still in. embryo , may be expected whenever the occasion necessitates It. This is now said to be the underlying motive of Chan cellor von Caprlvi's Dantzlc speeches. MIQUEL'S BOOM. The so-called Mlquel Intrigue Is still can vassed in the conservative press , where the doctor's prospects and fitness for the chan cellorship are openly advocated. The In trigue Is fomented by disappointed place hunters and from the fact that Or. Mlquel has utterly failed to gain the support of the center party , which has many grievances against htm , and which distrusts the effect which his promotion might have on Ger many's prestige abroad. There Is no rumor that Caprlvi's position Is in the least shaken. The frequency with which Emperor Wil liam has suddenly and unexpectedly called the garrison of Berlin under arms has gen erally been regarded as evidence of mere caprice upon his part ; but It IB now becom ing generally acccp'tcd oa being part of n well defined scheme of the emperor to overawe the socialists , anarchists and other dissatis fied elements of the populace. In this con nection It Is remembered that the emperor ordered out the garrison on election , May day , and , lastly , on the day following the socialists' celebration of the anniversary jof the revolution of 1848. Since the passage of the Russo-German treaty Count von Eulenberg has returned to his duties as Prussian mlinstcr at Munich , after a short stay here , which led to the re port that he had been summoned to attend the emperor on the latter's visit to Abbazla. It Is now learned the count's visit to this city was In connection with his impending appointment to succeed Prince Reuss as Ger man ambassador at Vienna , the most Im portant position in the diplomatic service of Germany. Dr. Thlelman , the negotiator of the Russo-German commercial treaty , will succeed von Eulenberg as Prussian minister at Munich. The Cologne Gazette says It Is authorized to state that Hcrr Benntgsen , leader of the national liberals , docs not intend to retire from active political work upon completing his 70th year. year.IN IN GOOD HANDS. The very representative suite which Em peror William has taken with him to Abbazla seems to indicate that he anticipates that very Important political matters may arise. The suite Includes the headquarters com mandant , the military and naval secretaries , a high official of the foreign office and a physician , Dr. Lcuthold. Emperor William is not expected to return from Abbazla until the end of April , when he will reside nt the new palace nt Potsdam- Emperor William has definitely decided to have a canal cut from the Havel , close to the new palace , to an arm of the same river , flowing past the villa Ingehelm , recently purchased for the crown prince. The grounds of the villa will be enlarged by the pur- phase of adjacent grounds and a station will bo established there for the emperor's yacht. Caprlvl will" postpone hfa visit to Carlsbad until Emperor William's return from Ab bazla. The empress and the Imperial chil dren , after visiting Abbazta , will proceed to the palace of Wllhelmshoo , near the castle , and from there the Imperial family will proceed to the Island of Rugen , In the Baltic , In order to enjoy , sea bathing. Emperor Francis Joseph will arlvo at Auoazia next weeic ana will accompany Emperor William upon several of the lattcr's contemplated sea trips. Emperor William will meet Emperor Francis Joseph on board the yacht Chrlstabel and Flume. Emperor Francis Joseph will arrive at Pasha's daughter by an Abyssinian woman , to assume the name of Emln na a family name , thus enabling her to Inherit the largo property left by Emln Pasha.

Interest In Coxcy and his Washington pilgrimage seems to decrease In direct proportion to distance from his rendezvous. Little of It anywhere Is serious , notwithstanding the large num ber of unemployed everywhere. There Is a little flutter of excitement here today , which. when analyzed , Is found to bo chiefly wonder whether the petition In boots is really going to materialize , and the desire to escape trouble If It does. There are about twenty newspaper correspondents here nnd the army Is less numerous at this writing. Coxey and Drown bustled In this morning from the former's residence and seemed to bo very busy .with preparations for the march which Is to begin tomorrow. Tents were pitched on the Gun club grounds today. There meetings will bo held and recruits will lodge tonight if they desire. There are yet few signs of the coming army. Twenty-two tramps were given lodging nt the police station last night . The number Is unusual and Mayor Williams says they are probably not recruits. On being re leased they scattered and have not reap peared. It Is said that 400 Salvation army soldiers will arrive today from Cleveland and that a delegation of 150 will come from Me dina. Captain Klstler of the Salvationists here says It Is four and not 400 who will come from Cleveland. The Salvation army Is not In sympathy with Coxey's movement , and considers the pretensions of Coxey to bring Christ and the use ft keys in the picture on the banner Is sacrilegious. The march of the commonweal army to the national capital will begin tomorrow at precisely half an hour after noon. This Is tlio declaration made today by the originator and the leader of this extraordinary pilgrim age , and seconded and confirmed by Carl Drown of California , his chief lieutenant. The leaders are still confident that recruits , not merely singly or In pairs , but by scores and hundreds , will join the main' line at every stopping place , and Commander Coxey , Is sanguine that when he reaches the na tional capital ho will bo at the head of. 100,000 American citizens. His son will rldo at the head of the army , wearing a combina tion suit of blue and gray and carrying the emblems of the commonweal , a white flag of peace. Mr. Coxey himself will follow in a carriage drawn by six white horses , -while Lieutenant Brown will be astride of a noble stallion. OBJECT OF THE PILGRIMAGE. The object of the pilgrimage is well known. On the arrival of the army at Washington It Is Intended to round up before the capltoI and demand the enactment of two bills. Olio of these authorizes the secretary of the treasury to issue $500,000,000. of treasury noics , to be expended In the Improvement of country roads , and the second authorizes municipalities to Issue non-interest-bearing bonds and to secure notes thereon. On Its way to Washington the army is ex pected to be fed by the voluntary contribu tions of sympathizers along the route , nnd an appeal has been Issued to fanners , capi talists and laboring men to bring forth liberally of their larders to the end that the strangers within their gates may not be permitted to go hungry. The first stop will bo at Reeilurban In this state , where" two hours will be devoted to refreshments and organization. Canton will bo reached nt 8 o'clock , and hero meetings lasting until midnight will bo held on the main street. The march will bo resumed in the morning to Louisville , 0. , where meetings will be held on Monday night. Washington Is to bo reached on May 1. The authorities of Canton have sworn In an extra squad of police In case the demonstration should take an objectionable turn and many other towns which the army Is to pass through have followed suit. W. II. Her of the commission reports some now contributions of provisions and supplies today. These are from local mer chants and others , who are probably moved moro bv a desire to protect themselves than by sympathy with the cause. There seems to bo no danger of the soldiers of Coxoy's common weal army starving. The populists along the proposed line of march are bestirring themselves. At Alliance , O. , a store room has been set apart as commissary headquarters and this Is packed with an endless variety of provisions. A farmer down the road toward PlttsburK Bends word that ho has slaughtered three oxen and will have them nicely roasted before the "common weal" arrives. At Canton arrangements have been made to glvo the soldiers their breakfast on Monday morning , and the populists of that town have been asked to contribute provisions. A c&r load of potatoes , Hour and provisions i'Ofrdther kinds have been donated by the farmers of Qrccntown , Stark county , and .contributions of money are coming In from other quarters. General Coxcy Issued an appall for help today. Ho requests that all remittances bo made by express and In currency , as the banks ore suspicions and might refuse 'to cash checks or drafts.

Three men foregathered at the Washington headquarters of Coxey's column In the Reiclmblto hall today , but there were no signs of activity about the premises. Colonel Redstone , who Is managing the affairs of the army at this terminus of the march , cherishes constantly swelling expectations , however , and today estimates the forces which will arrive on the 1st of May at 300,000 men. The publication yesterday of the fact tlmt special permission from congress Is required to congrugato on the capital grounds does not In the least discourage Colonel Redstone In his expecta tion of leadiirg the army up to the steps of the capital and through the bronze doors , If necessary. "No ono can prevent American citizens from congregating In the capltol , " ho said , "but I have no doubt congress will grant permission If wo ask for It. There will bo no disorderly men allowed In the parade and no disorderly characters can enlist In the army. " He expresses confidence that no opposition will be offered to the progress of the crusada along its march and also feels certain that congress will pass the two Coxey bills as soon an the aruiy heaves in sight. Ono of the bills Is for the Issue of $500,000- 000 of flat money , the other for giving work to the unemployed by building roads. Colonel Reilstono says no constitutional dllllcultlcs arc in the way , that the roads are under control of the states or counties. \lpmbers of congress nro watching the as sembling of the Coxey army , which Is to de scend upon them , with mingled astonishment and amusement.

Some few attach to It a profound significance , as an Indication of n popular up rising which Is to shako the foundation stoneu of a democratic government. No thought has been given to Its suppression. A number of congressmen know Coxey person ally , and credit him with cleverness and business ability. Representative Slbley of Pennsylvania and other members , who like good horses , have known Coxey at stock meetings , as 1m hnu u fondness for high bred horses , Representative Ikcrt of Ohio , within whoso district Coxey'H army Is gathering knows nothing of him. Representative Dalzell and other Plttsburgers , say that Coxoy does a flourishing sand business at Plttshurg , though they do not know htm personally. Concerning the march of the army on the capital , a number of congressmen wcro In terviewed today. Representative island bald : "It Is nn Indication of the unrest and uncertainty of the people. The Coxey army has as much right to come to Washington as the lobblcrs who come in behalf of pro tection and other private business. As long as they pay their expenses and commit no depredation ! ) they have a perfect right to come. Hut If they violate the law und be come pillagers they should bo suppressed , " Representative Outhwalte , democrat , of Ohio : "If Coxey's followers will only think they will xeo that If from 10,000 to GO.OOO men can Intimidate congress to do ono thing , then , another , 10,000 to 60,000 can Intlmiduto It to do another thing , which leads to anarchy.
