". Mcdonald.

SAN FRANCISCO, May THE develop
ments in the Pacific bank and the
Peoples Home Savings bank today were
not startling.
Dick Mcdonald is still in Jail, having
relinquished, for the time being. all hope
OF speedy release. He says that he will
wait until the indictments proposed
against him are entered. He will ther
ask to be released on q reasonable
amount of surety, claiming that such an
amount can easily be raised--that
three competent bondsmen have signi.
fed their readiness to quail
ify whenever they are called upon.
There are people, however, incredu.
lous enough to believe that Dick would
be abroad in naughty world If he
could get out of the county Jail, and that
he would have furnished the requisite
bail if the efforts of his friends could
have procured it.
An indictment against Frank V. Nc
Donald was filed today, accusing him OF
taking $4,000 of the banks money,
$l4, 900 of which Frank took east, and
while en- route lost in some mysterious
way not yet explained.

NEW CHINESE TREATY.
THE SENATE CONSIDERS 1T IN EX-
ECUTIVE SESSION.
Senators Morgan, Sherman and VIII lite
Favor Its Observation-Disclosures
Perkins Speaks in OPP
position.

WASHINGTON, May 7.-The Chinese
treaty was under discussion for six
hours by the senate in executive session
today, but that time proving insufficient
for its disposal. it went over till tomor-
row, VI hen General Morgan gave notice
that ne would again call itup. Speeches
were made favorable to It's ratification
by Senators Morgan and Sherman of the
committee on foreign relations, and by
Senator White OF California, while
Senator Perkins of California. spoke in
opposition.
Senator White offered some amend
ments to the treaty providing for closer
restrictions upon registration of return
ing Chinese, and said with this safe
guard added, he thought the treaty
would be acceptable. Indeed, without
the amendments hs would probably
vote for the treaty, as in his opinion, it
was an international confirmation of the
present laws OF this country, against
Chinese immigration.
Senator Perkins tock the opposite
view and contended that the ratification
of the treaty would mean the throwing
down of the bars to the Chinese, and
that it would undo what had been done
in the past two years to restrict or con-
troll immigration. He objected to much
of the phraseology of the treaty, and con-
tended that if it was to be ratified at all,
as he did not think it should be, it
should be very carefully amended in
many particulars.
Senators Morgan and Sherman urged
that the treaty was favorable to tho
United States, declared that it accepted
and confirmed all our anti-Cbinese leg
islation, and said it opened the way for
smicable extension of our trade with
China ana the improvement of our rela-
tions with that country.
The only vote taken during the execu.
tive session was on Senator Mitehell's
motion to consider it in open session,
and it was lost-l8 to So.
