It has been stated that the instructions given Commander Diehl would permit lit in to prevent even the embarkation of troops as a part of the United States policy of preventing renewal of hostilities on the Isthmus. It Is understood that the Democratic senators are not willing to go to the length that Mr. Morgan would have them go. They are for a canal somewhere, and If it must "be at Panama they will acquiesce In the inevitable. They are none the less willing that the administration should be criticised as much as possible for its alleged share in the wresting of the isthmus from Colombia, and the minority will aid Senator Morgan in using all the time he may wish to speak on the cunal situation and will vote to bring out all the documents and information possible to throw light 011 what bus been done.

The possibility that American war ships would prevent embarkation of Colombian troops received general publicity in yesterday's newspapers. It came up at the cabinet meeting. It was decided. Secretary Root taking a leading part In the discussion, that this would be an overt act, which could justly be construed as an act of war, which was not necessary.

He recognizes the propriety at this time, when the committee has suddenly become most Important to the well defined policy of the administration, of his retirement from the chairmanship and the selection of a Republican senator for the position. The matter will be broached to him by his Republican colleagues In a considerate manner, and pains will' be taken to give the Alabama senator a prominent minority position on the committee, an arrangement which every one recognizes Is due his long and consistent championship of the canal. This curtailment of orders was considered significant of the administration's desire to avoid the appearance of any unnecessary exercise of strength in keeping the Colombians away from the Isthmus.
