Erie Canal will go down in history along wjthj the other nefarious schemeB that they have forced upon the I tax-v-payers of New York who placed them in power, It Is mark amlnnt thnt 'Pavrty that the voters will not forget on next election day and a breach of trustj that they will never forgive. A large delegation of canal men called on Secretary Keep of the i Merchants' Exchange this morning to find out if can be done to open the wateryvay! They stated that they expejeted One or two breaks to Occur, but that they did not believe, with th' Work done, that a new rupture would occur every day.

Mr. Kee immediately pent a long telegram to Supt. Aldridge asking him if he could not do something for the men. It is hardly possible: that he can. Further breaks are expected, and Aldridge will probably wire back that they are doing all they caii to rush the work.

This is the answer he has sent to all telegrams so far. Edward W. Eamti. Several of the heaviest canal shippers were seen on 'Change today and, none of them, knew Jiardly what to say jabout thai matter, they were so utterly disgusted With Ithe proceedings. Mi.

Edward; W. Eames stated that he believed, had; the canal officials gone about the matter in the right way early in the season, the great falling away jf the canal would! have been averted, i "We do hot know what to do so far as building" new boats is concerned Just now. If they had expended the money Juliclously in enlarging the it would have been much better f6r the canal. 'iThe men could then have built larger boats, and need not have loaded them heavy until the work of increasing the draught of the canal had been completed. Now the men cannot! build a larger boat, and could not, even if the wcrk of jenlarging the canal proper was cdmpleted, for the reason that they would i be unable to go through the locks.

As ror tne aeiay in opening, would rather not say anything, as have not followed the canal as closely as many other men. I have no Intrest In it other than that of a taxpayer, and perhaps I have not given It the necessary attention. I know though, that before in the history of the canal has such a late opening been experienced.1 I do not pretend to fathom the- reason."

After 12 months of hard work, interspersed with little pleasure and a record that many old practitioners might well feel proud of, the resident staff of physicians and surgeons at the Hospital of the Sisters of Charity, will this week be superceded by a hew staff. This succession comes in the ordinary course of events and is not the result of ill-feeling or "incompatibility of temper" on the part of those directly interested. Each 'year, immediately succeeding the commencement exercises of Niauara University, examinations, most trying and exacting, are given those who have graduated. Only the best of the men can hope to pass, for the positions the fortunate ones fill at the hospital are most exacting and onerous. At times there are hundreds of i lives dependent on their care and watchful guardianship.

OP -PRESIDENT H'KINLE AND SECRE- 7 TART LONQ To Those Who Made Inqnirlea'aa to the Latest from1 the Seat ot War. WASHINGTON. May. 16. At 11 o'clock the President hanot been advised of anyi impointi development to the station so far aa could foe learnedl There were" some Interesting exchanges ot views on the situation between the President and those who saw them, but to'jiU them, up to that hour, stated that there were no important dispatches and also suggested, that It wti a little early for news.

Secretary Long made similar responses to some of the Senators and Representatives who -were numerous no; only at the White Hous durinjr the forenoon, but also at the War and Navy Departments. Representative Walker presented sons of Gen. Pickett, who made the famous charge at Gettys- purg, ana or uen. Longstreet, who are anxious for staff appointments. The rresment gave tne two young men assurance that they doubtless would be provided for.

Gen. Walker also la anxious to go to th front himself. The President said that If Gen. Walker continued to insist on going he would give him a command If possible, but urged that hia services were needed In Congress. A delegation of prominent T.ouisianans, headed by Representative Mye, ured on the President authority, for the formation of a complete regiment ok immunes from that? State for service in, Cuba.

The President was greally. pleased by the tender of their services, as the creation ot organizations of immunes has been desired by him all along. It Is' possible all will be accepted. THE HOUSE IS BUSY ANNEXATION AND WAR REVENUE THE LEADING TOPICS. Speaker Reed And Representative Dinsley Oppose the Hawaiian Proposition and1 It May Not Go Thromgrh.

WASHINGTON, May 16 The most notable event In the House proceedings of the present week will be the introduction of the resolutions providing for the annexation of Hawaiian. The committee On Foreign Affairs has decided to report favorably, the resolutions and win do so probably on. Tuesday. A very large majority-of the Republicans, and It Is claimed some of the democratic members, favor the measure and would like to take immediate action on the measure but it is likely cons'deratlon wjll be postponed until after this week. It is urged by those who oppose Immediate consideration that the passage of the resolution now would complicate the situation as respects the revenue bilFand would delay greatly tho vasa.se of the fatter.

Speaker Reed and Representative Dlngley are opposed to annexation as a proposition and the latter is especially opposed to passing the measure before action on the revenue bill is taken. Of' the appropriation bills in conference some progress has been made upon the Sundry, Civil and PostofHce measures, and one or botn may be reported, though there is a disposition ro delay them in conference until the revenue bill is well under way in the Senate. The House Committee Is practically ready to report the General Deficiency bill and may bring it in this week. A bill to establish a non-partisan labor commission to study problems with a view to suggesting appropriate legislation affecting labor may be considered this week.

In regard to that breaniat Schenectady, which occurred Friday, I can say thdt the statements sent out by the officials are lies from top to bot-tori.

1 1 received a letter friom Capt. Winnett, on one of my boats, the steamer Fred M. Lawrence, now Hying I at Schnectady. He states that the break at that place is 210 feet long by actual measurement, and not 120 feet as the authorities stated. They say the work can be completed inside of a week whichi God knows is long enough but in his letter he says that it will be impossible to mend the damage within ten or twelve days and in his opinion it can hardly be done In 15 days.

Mr. Winnett has been on the canal all his life and his opinion on such matters carries much weight. He has discharged all the men he hadj employed on the boats, and states that it is doubtful whether anything be done this ihonth." Orvllle A. Cranda.ll. "The whole matter is this," said Orvllle A.

Crandall, "the authorities have beeh negligent. The State pays inspectors to patrol the banks of the canal: in each section. There is an inspector in every mile of the waterway. He 13 supposed to cover that distance twice' a day. I doubt very much if they feover it twice a month.

They do not attend to their duties as many of them I have other business matters that keep them away from the canal. Do you suppose that if the canal was a private institution this repeated breaking of the banks would be allowed? No, it might happen once, but if it occurred again off would go the Inspector's head. Such work would not be tolerated. That gang of politicians go rights ahead bleeding the taxpayers. W'E NEVER HAD SUCH HIGHHANDED PROCEEDINGS UNDER ANY OTHER GOVERNOR," "Bill" Tweed Distanced.

All the Board of Trade men expressed themselves in about the same manner. Talk about "Bill" Tweed and the Bel-dens of Syracuse and the Lords of Rochester, being robbers of canal funds, they would be pigmies beside the gang that now has control, and unless something is done before long the old Erie will pass out of existence and with its demise carry much of the Empire State's proud distinction of being the greatest transporting State in the Union, with it. The authorities have not as yet begun to let the water into the Rochester leveli This wil' require about four days' work, and if no more attention is paid; to the matter than at other levels, the same breaks will occur. This can be prevented by having the men who are paid to look after the work stationed along the banks and when they see the water going through get a gang to work at it and prevent the whole bank from being carried away. CABINET RESIGNS QUEEN REGENT INSTRUCTS SAGASTA TO FORM ANOTHER AT ONCE.

PRIME MINISTER'S TROUBLES COMMENCED AS SOON AS HE INDUCTED INTO OFFICE. Was AVAR TO BE PROSECUTED Spanish Statesmen Unwilling- to Take the Relna of Government with War and Empty Treasury. MADRID, May 15, via Paris. All the members of the Spanish Cabinet have resigned. Senor Sagasta will tonight communicate the situation to the Queen Regent who will entrust him to the task of forming a new Ministry.

The Spanish Cabinet which has just resigned was composed as follows: President of the Councll-i-Senor Sagasta. Minister of Foreign Affairs Senor Gullon. Minster pf Justice Senor Grizard. Minister of Finance Senor Puigcer-ven Minister of the Int.erior-Senor Cap- depon. Minister of War Gen.

Correa. Minister of Marine Admiral Bermejo. Minister of Agriculture and Corn- merce and of Public Wirks. Count Xiauena. Minister of the Colonies- Senor Moret.

The Liberal Cabinet under Senor Sagasta was formed shortly after the death of Senor CanOvas del Castillo, who was assassinated on August 8, 1897, by an Italian anarchist named Golli. Gen. Azcarrage, the then Minister of War, was first appointed President of the Council and for a time the Cabinet remained unchanged. But on September 29th it resigned and Senor Sagasta assumed office' on October 4th, confronted by the trouble in Cuba and in the Philippine Islands. 1 One of the first steps taken by Senor Sagasta was to recall Gen.j Weyler, the theh captain gener 1 of Cuba, who was succeeded by XJen.

Blanco. But the situation did not Improve arid Spain was courteously, but firmly, warned that the United States could not much longer maintain neutrality! in the: face of the terrible situation of affairs in Cuba and the damiges which American Interests were suffering therefronj. Spain, however, refused to regard the situation from a humanitarian and business-like viewpoint and diplomatic relations with the TJited States were broken off on April 21st ast. Even then there were rumors of trouble In the! Spanish Cabinet and, after the brilliant victory of the United States fleet under Commodore Deiwey cut May the situation Decame more and more strained. The 1 Minister of Marine, Admiral Bermejo, the Minister of War, Gen.

Correa, and, especially, the Minister for the Colonists, were repeatedly attacked In Parliament and out of it) and rumors of resignations tendered oij to be tendered have been circulating for two weeks past. The difficulty, it appears. Is to find men who are willing to assume -j office under the conditions which now prevail in Spain. NAn empty treasury. Internal disorders and thd loss of the Philippine -isianos, ijuoa and Porto flcially declared the new Ministry, when formed, "will continue to prosecute the war to the" utmost Something i "Just as good -will not answer.

Are Justly Furious in Opening NEVER BEFORE IN THE HIS- iTORY OF THE ERIE CANAL has such a wanton disregard of the; Interest of the taxpayers been displayed. The oldest canaler has ho memory of such' a bold attempt to ruin the waterway as has been perpetrated by the Black regime. Heretofore this waterway nas been ready for navigation by the first of May. jnow it iooks as though we wre not going to have a canal at all this year.

Promises were made -that the waterway would be navigable prior to the 5th of May. When it was found that the officials had no intention to open it on that day, the. canal men placed no confidence in repeated promises that have been made every day since that time. The 15th of the month has come and passed arid the prospects of having this waterway open within the. next ten days are as remote as the hoisting of the Spanish flag on the capitol building at Washington.

Railroads Are The canal boat owners can i be found at various parts of the water front damning the officials. They do not know what they can do to jhelp the situation, in fact, they are helpless to do anything, and the large fleets of grain that are daily arriving from up the lake porta) ara goirg to the sea i coast by rail. This leaves the Erie Canal, fcri which the people of this State hive voted, and are yearly voting, millions oi their hard-earned dollars for its maintenance and preservation, lay idle, nnd broken from one end to the other in hundreds of places. The water Is going out through the newly laid banks as through a sieve, and every attempt to fill up the ditch finds several new breaks. Nobody seems to be able to account for the delay that was made In the early part of the season.

Through thef months of February and March spring weather prevailed. Navigation of the great lakes was opened two weeks ear- Rller than last year, and the canal, with everyining in its iavor, couiu nave aim should have made a new record foif early opening. The record that the Republican officials have made for them selves in retarding the progress of PUMMELED STEVENSON, BUT POLICE SKEPTICAL Victim of an Asaanlt Sara He Bobbed Hold-Up Stories' Told 4o the Police. The police were called upon to investigate two "hold up" stories yesterday. Thomas B.

Stevenson, an Englishman, .35 years old, overseer in one of the counting rooms of the Griffin Car Wheel Works, called at Noi 5 Station and said that he had been knocked down near the shop and robbed fcfiO. It seems that a number of men have been discharged Of late. Out of revenge some of these have thrown stones through the windows of the shops. According to Stevenson's story he went outside Saturday night to make an inspection when three men jumped on him from behind, knocked him down and took $60 in $5 bills from him. The police are still investigating the matter, but do not believe he was robbed.

The crew of the patrol boat arrested Henry Carson and John Blewett on the docks, Sunday night. At the time of the arrest they were fighting, and both were charged with disorderly conduct. Blewett told the police that Carson wa trying to take a-watch from him, and that he was' only defending himself. In ti early morning court Carson was fined $5 and Blewett let go.
