Washing-tun, D. C. January io.~
'i he Hepburn Nicaragua canal
bill passed the house late yesterday
afternoon by practically a unani
mous vote. Oil.’ two me mb rs
out of 310 voted against it. The
opposition to committing the gov
eminent to the Nicaraguan route
attempted to secure amendments to
lodge with the president the discre
tionary power to p rchase and com
plete the Panama canal, if it could
be purchased for $40,000,0^0. The
test came in when the advocates
of an alternative route polled 102
* against 170 votes. At each suc
ceeding vote their strength dwind
led until Mr. Camion of Illinois, nn
► der whose leadership the fight was
made, was unable to get the ayes
and noes 011 a motion to recount.
All other amendments failed and
► the bill passed exactly as it came
from the committee. The last sec
tion of the bill makes a present ap
propriation of $10,000,000 to carry
► on this work and authorizes the
J secretary of war to enter into pro
per contracts for material and work
as ma3^ be deemed necessary tliere
X- for, such work and material to be
paid for as appriations may be made
fro.m time to time. The section fix- •
es the aggregate cost at $180,000,
000 to be drawn from the treasury
j» on warrants of the president. j
