C!” Two Companies Propose to Build Nicaragua Canal. CONGRESS MAY INTERFERE Former Mayor Grace Alone Stands Sponsor for New Syndicate. Waterway Must be Comp etedfiin I‘ltree Years. Old Com- pany Claims Latest Grant. Int’ringes on ' Its Rights. New York, Nov. 2.—The capitalists behind the new Nicaragua canal syndi- cate,'who, through Edward F. Cragin of Chicago and Edward Eyre of New York, have obtained a. sweeping con- cession from the Republic of Nicara- gua, will not disclose their names. Former Mayor Wm. R. Grace. how- ever, stands sponsor for them in the statement that behind the syndicate there is an ample supply of money. Mr. Collis P. Huntington, whose name was yesterday mentioned as one of the capitalists in the syndicate, de- nies that he is in any way interested, and expresses ,the opinion that if the syndicate stops to count the cost its members will not build. ‘1 The concession of the new syndicate is to go into force when that of the Maritime Canal Company shall expire, in October of next year. ' The concession provides that the ca.- nal shall be built in three years, and the work of construction must begin before April 10,1900. ' The profits of the canal are to go to the new company for one hundred and ninety-nine years, at the end of which period half the net receipts will go to the Republic of Nicaragua. Should the waterway not be complet- ed in three years the new canal com- pany must connect the uncompleted water route by railroad, so that there will be a. continuous system of trans- portation between the two oceans. Mr. Hiram Hitchcock, proprietor of the Fifth Avenue Hotel, is president cf the Maritime Canal Company, whose concession expires on October 10 of next year. This company is composed of American business men who have a charter from the United States and concessions flom Costa Rica and Nic— aragua. They have already spent millions in surveys, sounding, engineeiing plans. telegraph lines, the building of wharves and the clearing of land, the construc- tion of buildings, the laying out of a railroad and the opening of more than a. mile of the canal. There is a bill now in Congress to give government aid to this enter— prise. A commission of ergpeits ap— pointed by the United States has re- ported on the practicability of the mute, and places the cost at $110, 00.0,- 000. The concession, while it e: wires on October 10 of next year, contains a re- newal clause providing for indefinite extension should the work at that pe- ‘riod be well under way. . Should the bill now before Congress pass at the December session, which is likely, the canal would be well on the way to completion in October of next year, and the Cragin-Eyre conces- sion wouldjfail. ' The select committee of the Senate has reported'favorably the bill to aid the Maritime Canal and also distinctly recognizes in its report that the men who now hold the concession have cer- ”tain- property rights which should be gprotected by the United States in the event of any attempt on the part. of Nicaragua to deprive them of the priv- ileges they have under the concession granted. DIolIegan Survivors, New York, Nov. 2.—The Atlantic transport liner Marquette, which ar- rived here yesterday from London. brought two of the survivors of the ill fated Mohegan, Thomas Mitchell of Boston and James Ward of Jersey City, both cattlemen. Ward says that Mitchell saved elevu en lives, swimming to the wreck with a line. Mitchel] would say nothing about his heroic work, but hurried home. Those navigating the Mohegan paid no attention to the rockets fired from shore warning the vessel to keep of; the coast, according to Ward’s state— ment. The life boat, in which he and 27 others escaped, was sinking, he de— clares, when the coasz guard boat came up. There was no plug in the Mohegan’s life boat and it would have sunk had the occupants not bailed out the water with their shoes.

He Promises for Peace and Renews Bil Vow to Serve the Lord. Jerusalem, Nov. 1, delayed in trans- mission. —Emperor William went to Mount Zion this morning, where oc- curred the ceremony of hoisting the German and Turkish flags on a. piece of ground upon which, according to tradition, formerly stood the abode of the Virgin Mary, and which the sultan presented to the German emperor. The latter subsequently formally presented the ground'to the German Catholics. Jerusalem, Nov. 2.—Emperor William has telegraphed to the pope, saying: “I am happy to be ablg to inform your holiness that, thanks to the benevo- lent intervention of his majesty, the sultan, who has not hesitated to give me this proof of his personal friend- ship, I have been able to acquire at Jerusalem the abode of the Holy Vir- gin. I decided to place this ground, consecrated by so many pious memo- ries, at the disposal of my Catholic subjects. It rejoices my heart to be able thus to prove how dear to me are the religious interests of the Catholics whom Divine Providence has placed in my care. I beg your holiness to accept the assurance of my sincere attach- ment.” The pope replied, thanking him and expressing satisfaction at the gift, for which he was sure the German Cath- olics would be deeply grateful. The emperor, at the close of the ceremony of consecration of the Church of the Redeemer here, read an address, during which he said: “From Jerusalem came the light‘ in splendor from which the German na- tion became great and glorious, and what the Germanic peoples have. be- come they became under the banner of the cross, the emblem of self-sacrific- ing charity. As nearly two thousand years ago, so to- day shall I ring out the cry, voicing my ardent hope, to all ——‘Peace on earth!’ ”’ He then renewed the vow of his an- cestors, saying: “I and my house will serve the Lord.” He then called upon all present to make the same vow, concluding with a prayer—“God grant that confidence in the Almighty, broth- erly love, resignation in suffering, and efficient w 01k may remain the German nation’s noblest ornament, and that the spirit of-peacc may more and more permeate and hollow the evangelical H church. _ . ”-11... tam nu! _...

At Santiago we had bread and meat always. Montauk Point was not the proper place for a camp of sick soldiers at this time of year. At Montauk Point I learned that the Long Island Railroad had an ex- tensive contract to haul the soldiers to the city. I issued orders to allow other railroads to come in and help take off the sick. “In Cuba medical supplies were wo- fully short.

NOT TO YIELD PHILIPPINES \ They Persist Also in the Story that the Cuban Debt Question “7135 Only Settle l for the Time Spain “’1” Rather With- draw Than Submit to Humilialing Tex-us. Paris, Nov. 2 .—The French papers de- :ive their news of the work of tie peace negotiations from Spanish sour— ces, and, therefore, the morning papers here are interesting, as indicating the atmosphere in Spanish quarters. It must be remembered that the Spaniards have unconditionallyac cep— ted the refusalo ft he United States to assume the Cuban debt, and the Cuban alticle is ready for the final treaty, providing differences on the question of the Philippines shall not prevent the making of any treaty. As the whole is composed of all its parts, so must the Philippine question be mutually agreed upon or none of those questions previously agreed on will find a place in the treaty. This is all the provision or provision— al understanding existent. In view of the facts, then, the Paris press shows ate ndency to confuse the situation. The Matin says: “It is well-under: stood that the cession of Porto Rico was tantamount to the payment of a W at indemnity in cash, and entirely need Spain from any subsequent rep- ctition on the subject.” Turing to Cuba, the Matin contin- ues: “The Spaniards declined to con- cur in separating the debt from the pledge, the mortgage from the loan: and as it was impossible to reach an understanding, they asked that at least the order of the protocol be in- verted, and that the question (if the Philippines be previously discussed. that question possibly offering the Americans an opportunity for tender— ing some compensation for the- enor- mous sacrifices they have forced upon the cofiqucied. “The Americans finally acceded to the change, and Only asked the Span— iards to accept provisionally the clau— ses relating to the Cuban debt, with the reservation that the acceptance could be withdrawn if no agreement was reached as to the Philippines.” Referring to Monday’s meeting, the Matin says: “The Spaniards said that they would make their answer known on Friday. But it is easy to foresee what it will be—a refusal, precise and formal. The Sphnish plenipotentiarics have made up their minds, in the event of the United States adverting to the Pnhilippine proposition, to decline sign- the act of peace, to break off the negotiations and to call upon the civil- ized nations to witness the abuse of and theviol ation of the provisions set feith in the Washington protocol.” The Gaulois remarks: “The Span— iards will never agree to abandon the archipelago without compensation and we believe the Americans intend to suggest that they will assume the Phi— lippine debt. W'e hope the negotiations will not be broken, but Spain, it is given out as certain, would take such a course rather than submit to humili— ating terms." Tn Stamp Out. Yellow Fever. Mexico City, Nov. 2.——The govern- ment is taking measuies for carrying out the sanitation of Mexican gulf It is believed here that when the American government ' completes the reconstruction of the sewerage sys— tem of Havana and cleans out the bay, withmoderate care in Mexican gulf ports yellow fever can be stamped out.
