Chonte, American ambassador to Creal Britain during tit?' negotiation of tho Hny-Pauncefote nealy. be lieves correspondence with the Brit ish government al that time pre cludes thc idea thal American coast wise shipping car. he exempted from paying tolls through tho Panania Canal. Former Presiden! Taft, who signed the Panama Canal Act. containing the exemption clause, tl.ought that In doing so he was granting a subsidy to American coastwise shipping and believes that unless Congress re verses itself the United States will have to submit the question to arbi tration. These points, both welcombed by repeal advocates, were brought out t(,-day at the hearing before the Senate committee on interoceanlc canals. Senator Simmens introduced a transcript of an address delivered by Mr. Taft before the Canadian Club at Ottawa last January and Mr. Choate'8 views wen- submitted in a lei 1er to Henry White, secretary of the American enibass> at London, while Mr. Choate was imbnssador, accompanied by letters addressed by him to Secretary of s?...te May. ex plaining the progress of the negotia tions. Mr. Choate wrote that the corres pondence "established beyond ques tion the intent of the parties In tho negotiations that the treaty should mean exactly what ? says and ex cludes tho possibility of the exemp tion of any kind of vessels of the United Stat<s. Kquality between the United States and Oren Britain ls the constan! theme. Mr. Choate reviewed the attitude of Lord Landsdowne by saying that .-it abrogated the Clayton-Bulwer treaty, gave us an Ameilcan canal, ours lo bulbi a.-. and where we liked; lo own. control and govern, on the sole condition of its being always neutral anti free for the passage of the sliips of all nations on equal terms, except that If wo got Into a war with any nation we can shut its ships on! and lake care n' ourselves." Mr. Taft. In Iiis address, declared (hal "there are some hot heads that talk In absurd tones about the righi of tho United States to manage her own canal and lier own property as she likes, no mat ter what she has agreed lo, bul this is all froth. These are Ihe cxploslvistas." ll" added thal he bad no idea of breaking the treaty, bul the question was "what the i reaty means." Dr. Ernest Richard, of New York, president of Ihc Cornum American. Pence Society, and .launs Cowies, of Washington, D C., were the only wit tie ios before the committee to-day. Dr. Richard declared Ibo United States should live ni? to treaty obli gations and said thc only people to gain hy coas; wisc shipping exemption would be ship owners. Lound a Cure for Rheumatism.
