OF Mamaroneck, n. Y, was arrested by

of the ST. Louis force, at the Planters
Hotel. this afternoon. Palmer is a hanu-
some, weii-dressed man, about 45 years OK

The arrest was made on long-distance
telephone message from Sheriff Johnson,
of Westchester county. n. Y. who said
that Palmer murdered his mother, brother,
and sister nine days ago, and fed TO parts
unknown. The Sheriff telephones that
Palmer had been traced TO ST. Louis. and
could probably be found at one of the
hotels.
During his stay at the hotel Palmer
kept closely to his room. When on the
ground floor he would find a secluded
corner in the library, away from the
crowd.
At 2:2O o'clock this afternoon Police

COLONEL DUPONT's PETITION.
Reopening of Claim to Seat In the
Senate.

WASHINGTON. January N-Colonel
H. a. Dupont. of Delaware, in connection
with his prayer for the reopening of his
claim to a seat in the Senate. to-day
submitted a supplementary petition,
which was referred to the Committee on
Privileges and Elections. In this new
petition Mr.. Dupont claims that the re-
fusal TO seat him was due to the wrong
against Mr.. Dupont with Senator VOL
cOtt on the statement made by senator
Brice that Mr.. Jones had given authority
to pair him against Dupont. Mr.. dupont
intimates that If the privilege Is ACCORDED
him, he expects to be able 10 snow thdt
there was no authority for pairing Sena-
tor Jones IN opposition to his beng
seated and that II the announcement oil
this pair had not been made, the vote
would have resulted i'm a tie. which would
have caused the failure of the resolution
declaring him not entitled to seat. ana
would have left the question pending In
the Senate.
As necessary consequence, he claims
that the affirmative resolution reported
from the Committee on Privileges ana
Elections is still before the Senate as a
question OF high constitutional and per-
sOnal privilege"
The paper also states that the Wolcott-
Jones pair was not announced from the
Clerks desk and he claims the privilege
OF reopening the case on the well-estab-
lished parliamentary practice that when
ever an erroneous announcement OF the
record of a vote is made, the vote be
comes null and void on discovery OF the
error.

announcement Of the pair was made on
the authority of Senator Brice, ne nlm-
self was not present.

ARBITRATION TREATY
WHY THE SENATE COMMITTEES ~
CONSIDERING 1T cARErULLY.
THERE MUST Be IxEHDnBIYS
Great Britain May He Seeking q
Prctext to Interfere In Oar De-
mestic Alphabetically Publ1a
Discussion.

WASHINGTON. ID. c., January N.-
The Senate Committee on Forelsn Rs,a-
tions to-day considered the general treaty
of arbitration between this country
and Great Britain, without reaching Z
conclusion. The general drift of discus-
sion indicated that the instrument must
be amended so as to eliminate any poe
sible inclusion Of questions concerning
the domestic or foreign policy OF either
of the contracting parties. 1t Is be-
lieved by some members OF the commits
tee that a conclusion will be reached at
a special meeting Saturday and that the
treaty will be reported to the Senate
Monday.
While 1t is believed that the treaty may
be made satisfactory by one or two
amendments. each member Of the COM
mttee has his own idea as to the exact
language to be employed in SO doing.
The ardent friends of the NicarAguC
canal insist that, In some way. that
question be lifted bodily from the treaty,
and guarded against. The fear that
Great Britain may be seeking a pretext
to interfere, not only in our foreign
policy. but I'm domestic affairs. as well.
leads others to urge an amendment, pro-
vding that no questions affecting either
the domestic or the foreign policy Of the
contracting parties shall be brought
within the provisions OF the general
treaty. This. IL is contended, will also
carefully guard the Monroe doctrine.
without referring to Il In name.
The designation In the treaty OF the
King of Norway and Sweden as umpire,
is causing the committee much concern.
and in looking up the diplomatic his
tory OF this northern country, the COM
mittee has discovered that a compact
exists between Great Britain and France,
on the one hand. and Norway and Swe-
den. on the other. In which the two great
Powers OF the South agree 10 stand by
the weaker nation. The designation Of
King Oscar will. in all probability. be
eliminated and an amendment reported
requiring the selection or an American
umpire for American questions, and q
European umpire when the matters In
dispute relate to affairs in the Eastern
| Hemisphere.
II Is understood that when the report
| on the treaty is made to the Senate. q
| motion will be made to discuss 1t In open
session Some members of the commit
| tee believe that this motion will carry.
| and that II will be a good thing for the
| country to have this public debate.
