THE TREATY.
Some Points 10 It that will be Dsbated In
the Senate.

NEW YORK, May I2.-The Iri5ole's 8
Washington correspondent telegraph
ed last night that there are very few
who criticise the treaty at Washing
ton as a whole, but the following are
some points which will arise iD debate.
They will relate principally to the
articles which provide for the settle
ment Of claims Of British subjects.
Considerable surprise is expressed by
Sumner and one or two others that
the American Commissioners did not
insist that Great Britain should sub
NIT a schedule Of the claims Of her
subjects, so it might be definitely
known what kind they are and what
their amount, and that they do not
include any of those to which the
American public will object.
Lord GTanvilles letter 20 Lord Ly-
Ons about the claims Of the British
subjects in France has been cited to
show that there is no occasion to fear
they will be large, but we are not
sure that England viii abide by these
precedents, and it would have been
much more satisfactory had these
points been definitely stated in the
treaty itself To show that these
claims may be very considerable it is
said that million and half OF dol
lars is involved in the case Of the Pc
terhoh alone, captured in Rio Del
NOrte and condemned. Caleb Cushing
says this case has aready been before
the Supreme Court and the opinion
against the United States has been
gwen. A law firm Of this city has
SIX hundred thousand dollars claims
LOT UODacco, captured property on yes
sells, which were a few hours late in
getting away irOm Norfolk and
other ports when the blockade was
declared.

NEW YORK. May I2-In the WO.
mans Suffrage Convention last even
ing Mrs. Woodruff said that if the
next Congress would refuse women
al legitimate citizenship, we shall
proceed to call another Convention

1t shall be applicable, not to women

governmental idea. We mean trea-
son; we mean secession, and on a

MACE AND coBURN.
The Fight A5iOHrBed to Kansas City, No.,
Where the Brutes will be Again
Disappointed.

ERIE, PA, May 12.-The Mace and
CObUrn ring was pitched yesterday
at Hay Creek, . miles from Port
Dover, Canada; 1000 people attended.
Barney Aaron was master Of CeremO-
nies; jim Cusick and Jerry Donovan
were Mace's seconds; Billy Dwyer
and Owney Geogehan, CObUrn's; Dick
Hollywood, Of Indianapolis, referee.
Even bets on Mace were offered, but
no takers. Mace won the choice; both
are in fine condition and confident OF
success; not five pounds difference in
weight. Both tOed the scratch at
twelve O'Clock; COburn slowly backed
to his corner, Mace not following far
this was repeated nine times, COburn
evidently seeking to draw Mace into
his corner, where his mob was gath
cred. These maneuvers, for foul ad-
vintage, occupied one hour and twelve
minutes, when Judge Wilson and
Edmund Deeds, the Sheriff of Nor
folk county, appeared with about sixty
militia, armed with loaded rifles.
The Judge read the riot act, and Or
dered the crowd to disperse, which
they did. Some thief in the crowd
stole the Judges watch. The SYM
pathy of the crowd is decidedly with
Mace, and bets are freely offered that
COburn will never dare to meet him
in the ring, but they are not taken.
The referee has decided that the fight
shall come of three weeks from to-
day at Kansas City, Missouri
ERIE, Pa, May 12.-Coburn's con-
duct in the ring yesterday Is stigma
tiZed by his friends even as COWardly.
Mace says he wanted to fight, but
dared not 90 into COburn's corner and
risk a fall, because the COburn men in
the inner ring were prepared to dis
able hin by throwing pepper and
tUrpentine in his eyes. Several pick
pockets who accompanied the bruisers
on the Canada excursion were hauled
here this morning.
A bill prohibiting prize fighting ex-
peditiOns leaving this State has been
introduced at Harrisburg, and doubt
less win become a law.
COburn and Mace both went East
to-day.
