ARTICLES SUSTAINED BY VOTE OF NEARLY
TWO TO ONE.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE TRIBUSRl
WASHINGTON, Wednesday, May "a, 1871.
The Treaty of Washington was ratified
tonight by vote of so to II, after session Of more
than eleven hours duration The Senate met at 10 a. %
and Immediately went into Executive session. 1t
is known that Messrs. Corbett Kelly, Casserly, Thur
man, and Morrill, of vemont made speeches In
opposition to its ratification without amendment. MI
Cassery's position is already known. The oregon Ben
ators opposed 1t account of the San Juan articles.
Mr.. Morrill, took decided exception to the
fishery provisions, and Mr.. Thurman was
earnest in his opposition on account OF
what he deemed general unsatisfactory settlement,
especially in the limitations to which submit by the
new rules Of neutral law Messrs Cameron and Morton
sustained the Treaty, and argued against all amend
ments The Democrats were in conference this morn.
ing and decided to vote for amendments, and as rule
TO oppose ratification.
Five amendments were offered three being by Mr..
Sumner One Of these proposed strengthening OF the
second rule Of arbitration In Article 9th the Alabama
claims which Mr.. Sumner thought too vague. The de-
bate on this was careful and the vote on the motion TO
amend was lost by only two majority The rule he
sought to amend is as follows:
Secondly not TO permit suffer either belligerent TO
make of its ports waters, as the base OF naval
operations against the other for the purpose OF the
renewal OF augmentation OF military supplies or arms,
OF the recruitment OF men.
Mr.. Sumner offered other amendments touching the
definition Of neutral and begeIent rights and duties
but they were lost without call Of the Yeas and Nays
There was proposition to strike out the articles relating
to the fisheries hut this lost by vote OF nearly TWO
to one and there equally heavy majority against
an amendment OF Mr. Corbets to strike out the proys-
ion for arbitration on the San Juan dispute.
Thus at about p. H., the Treaty passed the Senate
exactly In the form in which 1t received from the
President. sxty-seven Senators have attended the
extra session. and ca present when the final vote
was taken. The absentees included Messrs. Morrill,
Of Vermont, and Blair, who were paired. The Demo-
Gratis voted body against ratification with the ev'
dent purpose OF making party against the Treaty.
The only Republican who acted with them was Gen.
West OF Louisiana, whose is said to have been
dictated by desire TO ngratiate himself with the De-
nocracy.
The following list OF the Yeas and Nays is possibly In
correct in one two names, but can say this much
positively, that the final vote II Democrats and one
Republican put themselves record against ratllea-
ton. There are only Il Democrats in the Senate.

WASHINGTON, Wednesday, May "a, 1871.
Wbitelaw Reid was examined at q late hour
tonight at a full session OF the Senate Investigation
Committee as to the premature publication OF the
Treaty. He testified to having given general instruc-
tons for procuring the Treaty but said that he had given
none after the Treaty had passed into the hands OF the
Senate he could give no clue to the from which
the Treaty was derived, save that 1t came from no
Senator or officer of the Senate; he had
authorized general expenditures for getting this news
in advance but had given instructions on that point
since the Treaty had reached the Senate. he had re-
ceived bs from the Washington office since the pubea-
ton Of the Treaty. but in any mention made OF
the Treaty. OF expenses It's account He hadno doubt
some were incurred but they must have been included
in general charges for special reporting He had In his
possession no letters dispatches from Messrs White
or Ramsde on the subject.
He was examined az to the authorship Of certain ed
toria articles in THE TRIBUNE to which he replied that
he did not recognize the right OF the Committee to put
such questions he thought the matter mnaera and
was therefore quite willing matter of courtesy, to
answer. OF one he was the author Of another he had
written part directing the preparation OF the rest and
being responsible for them all.
The examination throughout was perfectly courteous
on both sides, but IL evidently disappointment to
Conkling and Carpenter who had expected TO secure
from tins witness details the from which the
Treaty was procured and to prove that large sum had
been paid for IT, after 1t had passed into the hands Of the
Senate.
They remained in session some time after the cxamina
ton was concluded aud after the Committee adjourned
Carpenter and Conklng continued their private consul
tation till they had to fer from the Senate Cham
