EvERYBODY'S SECRET.
No Oficial Knowledge That Senate Ha.
Rejected the Treaty.

Washington, May THE failure of the
Senate to make public it's action on the
arbitration treaty has created an unusual
condition of affairs.
There is no official information that the
Senate has taken any action, nor that the
treaty has been rejected, nor that the
treaty was, different from that originally
submitted
All that is known is that the treaty was
concluded by Secretary Olney and Sir
Julian Pauncefote and sent to the Senate.
That body then went into executive
session; SO that no official information
had been given as to the amendment and
the final action taken.
The secretary of the executive session
does not permit the state department. nor
the British government to be notified as
to what has occurred. It is felt to be due
to the other contracting party to the
treaty that some notice should be given
as to what has been done and as to the
form Of treaty when it was rejected, in
case the Senate never makes it's action
known.

Jury Was Out Two Hours But Could Have

Jail With Shadow of Death Overhang-

Lowell, Mass, May p" Murder in the
first degree" is the verdict against Lore
MO w. Barnes, of Maynard, who during
the past week has been on trial on an in
dictment charging him with killing John
Deane, the 18th of last December.
The verdict was unanimous from prac-
tically the first moment the case was
given to the jury The twelve men to
whom his fate was committed deliberated
upon it two hours and twelve minutes
but could have reported, with the entire
consent of all, some considerable time
previously.
The sense of the jury was tried as to the
second degree, but no feeling in favor of
such Judgment was developed. There
was no desire whatever to make the ver-
dict other than murder in the first degree
Barnes accepted the verdict with cool
ness and without any exhibition of emo
tion. He is tenant of the East Cam
bridge Jail tonight, with the shadow of
death hanging over him.
The case was prosecuted before Justices
Blodgett and Dewey by District ATTORNEY
Weir, and Assistant District Attorney
Sanderson, and the prisoner was defend
ed by John G. Burke, of this city and
John L. O'Neil of Boston.
Mr.. Burke made the argument for the
defense a clear, close analysis of the evil

was probably the greatest effort of the

by an explanation of the effect of insani-

request of the counsel, Judge Dewey add
