Washington, March 12. The long ex
pected answer from the British govern
ment to the state department's commu
nication reciting the action of the sen
ate upon the Hay-Pauncefote treaty
was returned yesterday. Lord Paunce
fote, the British amassador, came to
the state, deportment at noon by ap
pointment He brought the answer
with him, and read it to Secretary Hay.
It was, In form, an Instruction from
I.ord ltnsUowne, the Hritlsh minister
of foreign affairs, to Lord Pauncefotc.
; and of this instruction he left a copy
with Secretary Hay.
The secretary and the ambassador
were closeted for half an hour. At the
conclusion of the conference It was
stated that the Instruction to Lord
Pauncefote was to notify the govern
ment of the United States that the
British government did not see Its way
clear to the acceptance of the senate
amendments. These amendments were
treated in detail at some length, In ar
gumentative fashion, the purpose of
the British government being to show
that it had sound reason for declining
to accept them. After disposing of the
details, the note concluded with an ex
pression of regret that such a course
was forced upon the British government.
There was nothing; in the nature of a
counter proposition, nor was any open
ing left for further action by the Hritlsh
government. It was stated that if there
Is to be a further attempt to amend the
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, so as to author
ise the United States to construct a
waterway across the Isthmus, then it Is
for the United States to make the ove -tures;
the British government simply
drops the matter at this point.
As to the entire abrogation of th"
Clayton-Bulwer treaty, as provided 'jy
one of the senate amendments. It ap
pears to be the British view that au:h
a step Is too far reaching to be taken
without some negotiation. In which the
British aide of the case is presented.
The so-called Davis amendment ap
pears, however, to be the chief obstacle
in the way of an agreement, and while
the British answer makes no sugges
tion of any further megotlatlon.it seems
to be a fair Inference from it general
tenor that if a modification, of this
amendment couM be secured there
probably could be an adjustment upon
the other points of difference.
No opportunity offered yesterday af- j
ternoon for a conference between the
president and Secretary Hay respecting
the British answer, therefore It cannot !
yet be stated what action, if any, will
he taken by our government. It Is
stated that there Is no hurry, even n
tut event that It shall be decided to In
vite Great Britain to Join in fresh nego
tiations as to an Isthmian canal, con
gress not being In session to consider a
treaty if one should be framed. The be
lief seems to be warranted that there
will be no further negotiations on the
subject In the immediate future, unles.i
some event not now foreseen by the of
flclall causes a radical change in the
situation.
For the present the text of the Brit
ish answer will be withheld -from pub
lication, on this side of the water at
least, though It is said that after the
president hiiH thoroughly considered the
matter some general statement may be
made sr to the points developed.
The British answer is quite long, as
such documents go, and would make
about two newspaper columns. The
tone of the reply is distinctly friendly
throughout, particularly so In the cor.
eluding assurances of good will and a
desire to co-operate In the realisation j
of this undertaking.
Maryland Miners May Strike.
Cumberland, Md., March 12. There
Is trouble brewing in the Cumberland
mining region, and a strike is looked
for. The convention of the George's
Creek-Meycrsdale district is to be held
at Meyersdale this afternoon. Certain
demands will be formulated, and if the
operators do not accede to them a
strike Is believed to be inevitable. It
Is said tha the George's Creek oper
ators will under no circumstances con
fer with their men. The miners have
been working hard since Aug. 1 last,
averaging about $100 a month, and
It is said they will be in bttter shape
for a Btrlke than ever.

ed to recommit the bills for a public
