Rare still in force, none of the gentlemen
named would speak regarding the work

secretary and counsel of the commission,
and Arthur w. Ferguson translator,
were with the commissions.
Mr.. Reid said he and his fellow COM
missioners were very glad to get back,
but they couldnot discuss the treaty.

first train we can get" he said, "and
shall report Immediately to the presi-

we should say nothing about our official
business when.we arrived. When the
treaty was signed it became an official
document and it must be left for the
senate of the United States and the pres
ident to decide what shall be done with
it,"
Mr. Reid would not discuss the pub

be the text of the treaty, nor would he
say anythingiabout Montero Rios recent
criticism of the treaty.
''As newspaper man, should like
to speak" he said, "but as apublic Off

The senator admitted that he had an
opinion concerning expansion.
Il have nD doubt" said The, "that
there is sober, thoughtful opinion in
this country against expansion-there
must be. The treaty gives US control of
the situation: we can do as we please.

may be determined in the future"
Senator Frysaid that at the opening
yof the session i'm Paris, ''the Spaniards
first wanted to give us the island of Luz
fzon; that we refused to do. Then came
Ia squabble about the Cuban debt. We
were not inclined to pay that, and after
"a hard fight, of days. and days, our OPP
ponents finally tyielded to our claims
and signed the treaty, which ] have no
doubt will be ratified by congress-"
