Isthmian Canal Treaty Shifts to US Control
The revised Isthmian canal treaty sponsored by Secretary Hay and Ambassador Pauncefote curbs Britain’s demands, giving the United States control of the canal while equal shipping privileges apply to all nations. It weakens the Monroe doctrine and faces Senate ratification amid praise for resisting earlier concessions. Separately, Madden orders Appeal to Reason to show cause for mail eligibility, arguing a legitimate subscriber list is required. The piece also notes Colombian insurgents’ likely defeat by government forces and a whist game aside.
