LITTLE FOR THE SENATE TO DO.
PROBABLE ACTION ON THE ARBITRATION
TREATY-THE APPOINTED SENATORS


Washington. March 1tTom morrow at noon both
houses of the LVth Congress will convene In ex-
traordinary session. 1t is not likely that the Sem
ate will remain in continuous session during the
week, unless the President is much more expedi-
tious than he has been in making nominations.
There is nothing before the Senate, and there will
be nothing to require close application business
until the Committee Foreign Relations reports
the Arbitration Treaty with Great Britain. a
special meeting of the committee for the further
consideration Of this subject has been called for
tomorrow.
When Senator Davs's motion to refer the treaty
back to the committee was discussed during the
recent special session there was a general express
sion of opinion that the designation OF Judges OF
the United States Supreme Court members of
the tribunal should be eliminated. II was thought
that as jursts sitting In the court of last resort
In this country the Judges might be called on TO
pass upon questions similar to those that might
arise under this treaty of arbitration. and should
this prove to be the case the situation would be
more than embarrassing. as the opinion of Judge
as a member of our own court might act as an
pendent member of the tribunal.
II is almost certainty that the treaty Will also
be amended along the lines OF the Turpie amend
nent of the last session. so rs 10 provide that
every case question intended to be submitted 10
arbitration under this general treaty shal hrst be
submitted to the Senate for its ratincauon ~
II seems to be general impression tnat when
to succeed Mr. Call arrives he Will be seated. The
Legislature of Florida does no convene until April

interim, under precisely similar conditions. -
The appolntee from oregon in place Of Mr.
Mitchell has not yet arrived. His claim to a seat
