IN THE
North American Review
YOU WILL ALWAYS FIND
The Right Topics,
By the Right Men,
At the Right Time.

THE TOPICS are always those which
are uppermost in the public mind
in morals, politics, science, literature,
business, finance, industrial economy,
social and municipal affairs, etc--in
short all subjects on which Americans
require and desire to be informed. No
magazine follows so closely from month
to month the course of public interest
All subjects are treated of impartially
on both sides.
THE CONTRIBUTOR to the Review
are the men and women to whom the
world looks for the most authoritative
statements on the subjects of the day.
No other periodical can point to such
a succession Of distinguished writer's.
The list is a roll of the people who are
making the history, controlling the af-
fairs, and leading the opinion Of the
age.
THE TIME when these subjects are
treated of by these contributions in the
Review is the very time when the sub
jects are in the public mind.
THE REVIEW is the only periodical
of its kind which has a recognized place
as
A FAMILY MAGAZINE.
This is because it deVotes so much at
tention to subjects that are of particu-
lar interest to women.

The ARBITRATION TREATY
Senator Chandler Accuses Hale of
Being CO!d-bloOded.
Does Not Care to Vote for the Treaty
While British Guns Are Fir
ing on Cretans.

The Senate yesterday still further emas-
| Great Britain by striking out the eighth
| section entirely, and adopting an amend
ment 10y Mr.. Bacon, which is intended to
protect the Southern states from any
claims based upon securities issued during
the reconstruction period
The debate was devoted almost entirely
to Nr. BacOn'S amendment, that Senator
making an elaborate speech in support of
his suggestion 1t was antagonzed in an
exhaustive speech by Mr.. Lindsay, who
discussed the legal phase OF the case, and
also by Mr. Gray. When the vote was
taken the amendment prevailed by a ma
jolity Of five votes. 1t adds at the end
OF article of the treaty proviso reading
as follows: mo claims of citizen of
Great Britain against a State or Territory
of the United States shall be a subject of
arbitration under this treaty.
The Senate voted down Mr. Morgan's
motion TO strike out article Z which gov
ernS objections that may be made to the
jurisdiction of the arbitral tribunal.
Mr.. Hansbrough withdrew his resolution.
mentioned last night, for the reason that
the amendments of Senator Foraker, pro-
viding for separate court for each case
submitted, for the ratification of the
treaty would be unconstitutional because
of the fixed and permanent character of
the court contemplated.
On motion of Mr. Rawlins article s.
which provides that the President NAV
appoint a judicial officer of a State or
Territory as a member OF the court in
cases in which such State or Territory
might be concerned, was stricken out al
together.
The remainder Of the afternoon was
spent in laying upon the table immaterial
amendments, which were offered almost
without number. Mr.. Davis pressed for a
day for the final vote, but did not succeed
Mr.. Chandler said that while he should
probably vote for the treaty, he did not
care 10 do so on a day when the British
guns were firing upon the Christians on
the Island of Crete and seeking TO estab-
liSh upon that island the permanent rule
of the Ottoman empire.
Mr.. Hale retorted that what Great Britain
might do elsewhere should not be taken
into consideration here. The pending
treaty was between the United States and
Great Britain alone, and Mr.. Hale chided
Mr. Chandler for the remarks he had made
The New Hampshire Senator replied with
some warmth that the blood in his veins
was still warm, and he was unable to look
upon these matters in that cold-blooded
fashion peculiar to the Sena tor from Maine.
Mr. Hale denied that he was cold-blooded,
and asserted that it was quite possible
that his blood was as easily stirred az
was that of MI Chandler

senate Not in Any Better shape.
Nothing Can BE Done Until Steer
ing Committees Meet.

Never before have the committees Of
either branch Of Congress been so disor-
ganized as they are at present. The House
is running along with only a half dozen
OF its committees named, and the Senate
has only about the same number of COM
plete ones Nearly a quarter of the Sen
ate committees are so crippled that they
have not quorum of members and are
in no shape to transact business This sit
uatiun is anomalous, but it is not likely
to be cured at any very early date.
Speaker Reed is not disposed TO an
nounce mis- additional committees, although
much pressure is being brought upon him
to do so by members who are impatient
for recognition, and who believe the
House can well afford TO be doing bust
ness instead OF lettering along by three

Senate, "A body which insists ON reading
and considering bills before passing them.
The Speaker is being urged to announce

important matters affecting foreign

by the President. But he is resisting with
characteristic stubbornness the daily ap-

kicking rather pleases Reed than other
wise. He heartily enjoys the job OF blunt!y
declining to do anything in the matter.

the silver gray veterans, are also becoming

THE INDIAN BILL.
An Important Senate Amendment
VIII Probably Fall.

1t is regarded as improbable that the
principal amendment which the Senate has
made to the Indian appropriation bill can
stand. The Appropriations Committee OF
the Senate has reported this bill with a
few unimportanJ amendments, and one of
decided consequence. This latter provides
for the opening ofthe UmcompahgreI Indian
reservation in Utah.
Representative Sherman, chairman OF
Committee on Indian Affairs, opposed the
amendment in the House, and its rejec-
ton followed. In the bill, as reported by
the Senate committee, important modifica-
tions have been made respecting the selec-
tion of lands, but it is not believed that the
proposition has been improved sufficiently
in popularity to save it in the House.
Members of the old House Committee on
Indian Affairs say that another rejection
