HAYNE. 667 HAYS. Daniel ^ychste)■, of Mnssarhtisetts (Boston. 1898), in till' ■•Rivorsidc hiti'niture Series." HAYNES, Hemsy Williamson (1831 — ). An Anieiiean arelurologist. born in Bangor, Maine, son of Xatlianiel llaynes, editor of llu' Edntent ItcpiihUcaii. He graduated at Harvard, studied law, and practieed for a few years. Then he was appointed professor of Latin, and later of Greek, in the University of Vermont, a ehair from which he resigned in 1873, to make areha-- ologieal researches in Eirope and in Egypt. Ilis memoirs on the Paleolitliic Age in Egypt (1S78) won him a medal and a dijiloma from the Antliro- pologieal Congress of that year in Paris, and afterwards were published in the papers of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Haynes was long a fellow of the American Asso- ciation for the Advancement of Science, and re- cording secretary of the JIassachusetts Historical S.x-icty. HAYNES, -John (?-1C54). An English Co- lonial Governor in New England. He was born in Essex, but emigrated to Massachusetts with other Puritans in 1033, and the following year' tried to found a colony on the Connecticut River. He tried .again (IfiSli). after he had been for two years the third Governor of ]Iassachusetts Bay, and he ultimately succeeded, becoming the first Governor of Connecticut and one of the five framers of that Colony's Constitution. That the colonists approved his rule is evident from his reelection as often as the law allowed. In Ban- croft's History of Ihe Vnited States, vol. i., he is described as being "of a very large estate and large affections; of a heavenly mind and a spot- less life; of rare sagacity and accurate but un- assuming judgment; by nature tolerant, ever a friend of freedom." HAY-PAUNCEFOTE TEEATY. The name applied to the convention negotiated in 1001 by John Hay on the part of the United States, and Lord Pauncefote on the part of Great Britain, which abrogated the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty (q.v. ), and declared the policy which would con- trol the United States in the construction and maintenance of an Isthmian canal between the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans. The statement in President ilcKinley's annual message to Congress in 1898, that the construction of the canal had become a national necessity, led to diplomatic cor- respondence that resulted finally in the opening of negotiations, with the end in view of so modi- fying the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty that, without aft'ecting the general policy of neutrality enun- ciated therein, the L'nited States would be en- abled to proceed with the canal's construction. The treaty then negotiated, and transmitted to the I'nited States Senate by President McKinley on February .5. 1900, provided: (1) For the con- struction of the canal by or under the auspices of the United Stales Government; (2) for its neu- tralization on the same basis as the Suez Canal; and (3) for an invitation to other powers to join in guaranteeing such neutrality. The convention was finally ratified by the Senate on December 20, 1900;' but with three amendments, the first of which provided that the restrictions contained in the second article, based on the Suez conven- tion, should not apply to such measures as the United States might find it necessary to take for their own defense and the maintenance of public order; the second explicitly stated that the Clay- VOL. IX.— 43. ton-Bnlwer Treaty wa> thereby suspended; ano the third struck out the provision in regard to the guarantee to be asked of otiu'r non-constructing powers. In its amended shape Cheat Britain re- fused to ratify the conventi(jn. and it expired liy liniitalion on" Jlareh o, 1901. Negotiations for a new treaty were immediately started, however, by Secretary of State Hay and Lord Pauncefote; the new convention was signed by thcni on November 18, 1901, transmitted to the Senate by President Roosevelt on December 5th following, and ratified by that body, with but slight opposi- tion, eleven days later. The principal dill'ercnccs between the first and final treaties were tlirce in niunber: (1) No guarantees of the canal's neu- trality were to be asked cither of Great Britain or any other power; (2) the Clayton-Bulwer Treaty was specifically abrogated, although the general principle of neutrality contained therein ■was retained: (3) certain undefined riglits of control were to be allowed to the L^nited States in time of war, the exact nature and extent of which was not specified, but there was no require- ment that the canal should be kept open and free in time of war as in time of peace, nor was there a prohibition of the erection of fortifications com- manding the canal or its adjacent waters.
