MAY CALL UP TREATY.
Thurshay-CIaIms Made by
Both Sides.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 16.-It is the pur-
pose of Senator Davis, in charge of the
peace treaty, to again call it up as soon
as IL can be reached without displacing
other measures which take precedence
under the existing orders of the senate.
The outlook is against any serious
consideration Of the treaty before
Thursday.
The opponents Of the treaty profess
great confidence in being able to defeat
1t, upon vote, and to believe that the
friends of the agreement will seek to
postpone vote until next session. Tho
Democratic opponents of the Agreements
have held several meetings during the
past week and those who have attended
profess to be very hopeful concerning
the outlook They claim "a votes in
opposition, or three more than neces-
sary to defeat.
They say they will be satisfied to
have the treaty ratified providing an
amendment is engrafted upon it declar-
ing against the maintenance of soyer-
eighty in the Philippines, but the sup
porters of the treaty decline so far TO
grant any such concession. Some of
them indicate a Willingness to adopt a
separate resolution to this end, and it Ia
not impossible that this course may be
pursued. The supporters of the treaty
do not claim to be in the least disturbed
over the outlook. They count upon
considerable delay in securing action,
but still hold to their contention that
the treaty will be ratified Just as is
came to the senate.

From all accounts the Republican
members Of the House Banking and Cur
rency committee had a lively dispute
one day last week and but for Speaker
Reed it would have been aired on the
door. Some members don't speak as
they pass by. Charges OF bad faith are
made and 1t may break out.
The Ill feeling dates back to the last
session. when rivalry arose over various
methods Of currency reform legislation.
Secretary Gage had plan. Chairman
Walker, OF the committee, had another
plan, the Indianapolis Monetary Com
mission still another plan, and indi-
vidual members also had thfir plans.
After much controversy all the plans
we're shelved and Mr. McCleary, of Min.
nesota, got through q compromise plan.
It was reported TO the house and now
stands on the calender as the only plan
of currency reform before Congress-, As
such it has attracted much attention
from bankers and finarciers.
Chairman Walke' started In to get
this measure of the calendar, on the
Ground that II was irregularly reported
He claimed that only four members of
the committee out of total of seven.
teen voted for It. Mr.. McCleary rallied
his forces to resist the chairman. The
matter was to be brought before the
house as one of privilege.
Foreseeine an ugly personal issue,
Speaker Reed secured a truce between
the two sides, with a view OF having
Mr.. McQleary withdraw the bill.

OF the Third Baptist church of Atlanta,
in his sermon last Sunday, said:
"If our churches in Atlanta depend
upon ourso.called society iok we would
not run year. I have never seen the
difference bet geen the morals of negro
playing craps and a young society wo-
man playing cards for prize.
"Religion opposes drunkenness, while
society, with its wine and punch-bowls
fivors it. A parlor punch-bowl is par

the hand that dishes it out.
"The religion OF Christ is opposed to
licentousness, but society bg its naked
ness anl its loosa privileges and its
round dances, favors 1T.

hushed up. If poor gil does the
same thing she is publ shed to the
