OPPOSITION VERY STRONG
Chances for the Ratification of the
Treaty Growing Less.
1t Is Claimed That There VIII Be
at Least Forty Votes Against
the Measure.

The chances for the ratification OF the
English treaty seem to be growing less
every day. Contrary To the general eXpec-
tatiol, the amendments of the committee
have not lessened opposition TO the treaty.
They were supposed to be concessions to
the opponents of the treaty, aad as they COW
cred about all the objections which were
made to the treaty during the arguments
in the old Senate it was confidently ex-
pected that their adoption would greatly
diminish opposition.
This, however, does not prove To be the
case, and in the debates in executive Ses-
sioa in the new Senate the treaty has
seemed to have more opponents than before.
This S due to several causes, but notably
to the developments in the Eastern situa-
ton. The part played by Great Britain in
the compact for the blockade of Crete
has done much tn excite the anprehcnsions
of number of Senators previously inclined
TO be friendly 10 the treaty. Opponents
Of the treaty claim that they are assured
of forty votes against it. This is ten more
thaa the number necessary TO insure its de-
feat
