Tramp Card On Panama Canal.
Washington, Sent. 14.—If a last re-
sort is necessary the administration
will not hesitate to make it clear that
Colombia canrot open negotiations
with any other power for the building
of a canal. The United States is now
in a humor to insist that under her
treaties with tJreat Britain she is in a
position to resist the efforts of any
other nation to build the canal. The
ground taken will be that another
country would necessarily have to ac-
quire sovereignty over the canal strip,
and that this is iu direct violation of
the Monroe doctrine principle. The
administration would not accept the
evasion of a lease for any period long
or short to another nation. Full reali-
zation of this is expected to have its
effect upon the Colombians.
