WASHINGTON, March 13.-The reso-

he is to be paid il said to be the Begin
ming Of an effort to discover the precise
relations which have for % long = time
existed between the State Department
and Trescott.
Some of the member in discuss-
ing the resolution of Belmont suggested
1t was very likely the Envoy would be
made the scape goat in this casc If one
was needed. The friends of TTescott
say the President appointed and the
Senate confirmed the Envoy. The au-
thOrity Is evident and that he will be
paid from the contingent fund of the
State Department unless special appro-
priatiOn Is made for the expenses Of the

since the trial and his color has greatly
improved. The warden says he spends
no time in religious exercises, rarely
reading the Bible and he never has been
