WASHINGTON , Feb. 8. Hepicsontaiive
Hepburn , chairman of the house interstate
and foreign commerce Committee , which haj
charge of the Nicaragua canal npproprhtlon.
opposes the canal treat/ with Great Brii-
nln , now pending in the scnnte.
"I think , " ho said today , "that the nego
tiation of this treaty Is very unfoitunato
nnd that It ought not to bo latltied by thu
bcnatc. I do not know that the pendency
of thci treaty will Intel fere with action
by congress on the Nicaragua canal bill , but
thn ratification of the ticaty would certainly
Impair the value of the caual when con
structed.
"This treaty \oafllrms \ the principles of the
Clavton-Bulwei tieaty , conceding all thu
claims and contentions of Great Britain.
England had by her own nctioi * given us the
right nl nny tiuio to nbiogtue thn Clayton-
Bulwer treaty. The ne w treaty sui renders
everything to Great Britain , abandoning
our contention of > ears , that we might
abrogate the treaty at will.
"Moreover It recognizes the right of any
foielgn power to Interfcro and dictate with
ibfbrunca to our negotiations with thu Inde
pendent governments of this continent. It
abandons the Monroe doctrine"
IViitrill Anifrlen IN hntlMllctl.
Ofllclal telegrams htt.\o bcon received by
ncveral of tbo Central American repic-scnta-
tlves In Washington stating that the Iluy-
Pauncflfote treaty Concerning the Nicaragua
canal meets with general approval through
out Central America Those favorable as
surances como not only from the two coun
tries most dlrectlj concerned , but also from
Guatemala and Honduras , which to some ex
tent share In the piospectlvo ndvantages the
canal will bring to that section of the coun
try. So far ns Costa Hioa Is concerned
Minister Calve expresses the most hearty
approval of the new tieat } , and the mei-
sagco ho hns locelved from his government
show that thlu sentiment Is held by the
Costa Klcun government.
As the proposed route of the waterway Is
by way of the San Juan river. In which ad
jacent territory Costa Illca Is Intcrestel , this
friendly attitude Is received with satisfaction
by officials here. The bill before congress
empoweis the president to negotiate with
Nicaragua and Costa Hlca for the light of
way for the canal and the friendly assurances
now conveyed are tnkon as an evidence that
these negotiations will bo received In a
cordial spirit.

Call Is unsparing In his dc'iunclttlun of the
policy to whkh the bill will commit the
government.
The majority report wns submitted bv
Chairman I'njne. It sajH the 23 per cint
duty Is necessary to prevent United State-i
minufactuiem of spirits and clg.uo from
being nt a disadvantage. A consld wbl"
poitlnn of the re-port Is devoted to n discus
sion of the crops of I'oito Hko and mnrKoO
for them , also the noceojltlcs for customs
duties to Keep up the revenues of the Island.
The leport declares that the revenue laws
to bo applied to Potto Hlco nrc absolutely
within the power of congicas to determine.
Discussing the question-
M en n In ir tit "I 11 1 1 I'll S intei. "
"Is Porto Illco Included within the mcnn-
Ing of the term 'United Statcu' In the con
stitution , " the icport su > s. "That It Is not
so Included would .stem apparent ftom n
variety of fon. > Idcrntloiis. It must bo rccol-
leetevl tint the term 'United States' has
more than one meaning. It moans , in the
first place , the several states respectively
that constitute the federal union. It means ,
ngaln , In a geographical sense , nil the tcirl-
tory over which the United States has juris
diction , just ns the British empire means nil
the component parts of the kingdom of Great
Britain. But It means In its political -sense
that corporation which Is the result of the
federal union nnd constitutes the United
States a nation It Is undoubtedly in this
latter Hense that It Is used In the constitu
tion. "
Concerning the acquisition of territory the
report states "Subsequent to the acquisi
tion of Louisiana the United States has
acquired tcrrltorj In a number of Instances
by virtue of the treaty-making power. It Is
to bo observed that In each nnd all of these
cases , both by the terms of the icspcctlvo
treaties and by the legislation of congiess
v itb inspect to the acquired tenltory , the
doctrines announced In connection with the
acquisition and government of Louisiana
Isavo been reamrmed.
"In each nnd every cnso It has been ,
thought ncceasary , In order to modify the.
o'hcrwiso unllnjlted powers of congiess , to
make special provisions in the treaties by
vvblch the teirltory was acquired.
Alaskii ttn iI'rocuilent. .
"In all of the treaties , save that relating
to Alaska , provision has been made that the
territory acquired should bo Incorpoiated
into the union ns boon as possible , and that
In the meantime the civil rights of Its In
habitants should be guaranteed. In the
treaty with Hussla , whereby Alaska was ac-
qulrcJ , no provision was made for the incor
poration of the territory Into the union ,
but provision was made that the inhabitants
should have the Immunities of cltl/ens of
the United States and protection In the en-
Jojcnent of tholr liberty , property and relig
ion. Had not these terms been made In the
treaties the territory acquired would have
become subject to the legislation of congiess
under Its power to make all needful rules
and regulations lespecting It , which is with
out limitation. By the mere acquisition of
territory by the United States Its govern
ment becomes subject to the limitations of
the constitution , then clearly there was no
necessity for the insertion of limitations In
the. respective treaties.
"So far as legislation with icspcct to theoo
tieaty-acqulrcd teirltcrles has been had , It
Is to be attribute * ! to the guaranties secured
by the terma of the treat j. In the case of
teirltory acquired with no limitations upon
the power of congreta Its power in absolute
and exclusive , except insofar ns It Is limited
by the thirteenth amendment to the consti
tution , which prohibits the existence of
slavery In any place over which the United
States has jurisdiction. In the ci ( < a of
Hawaii express iccognlllon was made of the
fact that its laws would icmaln In foice un
til action by congress
"Nowheio Is the distinction between the
United States as subject to constitutional
government moic strikingly Illustrated limn
In the unhiokcn line of dcdalons which In
trims exclude territories fiom ono of the
nain articles of the constitution. "
After citing mtmv CBSCF In Hiippoit of Its
conte-ntlon , the icport concludes *
Mi-niiliiK of 'IVi'iu " 1 nlleil ' < tn < eN. "
" 1. That upon ic.ij.on and authority , the
term 'United Stntc.V as used In the con
stitution hati rcferenco o.ily to the states
that runEtltuto the fidcr.il union nnd docs
not include tcrrltoiles.

bpcct to legislation for Iho ten Dorics Is
plenary.
" 3. That under that power congicss may

Miller was In good humor He did not

fear as to the future. Chief Dovery was
very nnxlous to find out something of Mil

Accoidlng to n statement mnde by Chief ol

GERMANY TO INCREASE NAVY

WEHLIN , Feb. 8 The fiist leading of the
naval bill took place In the Hclehstag todij.
The house and galleries -were crowded Thn
oeerelary of the admiralty. Admiral Tlrpltr , .
tbo secretary of the interior. Count von
Posadowskl-Wehner , and. the socrctary of
the trcasurj' , Baron von Thtc'lmun , vvero
pupont. A photographic apparatus was
conspicuous in the gallery for the purpose
of reproducing the historic scene.
Admiral Tlrpltz , In introducing the bill ,
said the historical events of the last two
vents had spoken in oiich clear language
that the necessity for n strong fleet for
Germany had been recognired In evei-
wldenlng circles In the countrj. Those In
favor of a great navy and those opposed
to It differed essentially In regard to the
scope , date and period for cnrrjlng Into
eftcct the Increase of the fleet , nnd also
conceining the form In which the question
should bo dealt with. But the reasons foi
increasing the navy could be summed up In
u fow' ' words. The discrepancy beXween Gci * .
many's naval power and that of other coun
tries was so great that the federal govern
ment saw therein a distinct danger If nl-
lov.cd to continue. Indeed , the danger ap
peared nil the greater as the conimeiclal
competition of the world , according to nil
calculations , would become more severe ilui-
Ing the next decade. Any ono desiring to
examine the question of the navy must
clearly understand It is Impossible to Im
provise navies On the contrary manj jears

of all Is It possible to Improvise navies In
