In Favor Of Ratifying the
Treaty Of Peace
With Spain.
TRUST THE AMERICANS
To Settle the Great Questions
That Will Follow In The
Best Possible
Way.

WASHINGTON, Jan 24.-Mr. Lodge
(Mass) made speech in the senate today
in favor of the ratification of the peace
treaty. After discussing ably certain
constitutional questions, he said In
part:
s'The great question now before the
American people resolves itself in my
mind to one of policy purely.
ssThere is only one question demand
ing actual and immediate decision now
before congress and the people, and
that is whether the treaty with Spain
shall be ratified or not.
s'The treaty cedes the Philippines to
the United States. It is wisely and
skilfully drawn. It commits us to no
policy, to no course of action whatever
in regard to the Philippines. When
the treaty is ratified we have full
power and are absolutely free to
do with these islands as we please; and
the opposition to Its ratification may
be summed up in single sentence,
that the Americans and the American
congress are not to be trusted with
that power and with that freedom of
action in regard to the inhabitants OF
those distant islands.
'Every one OF the resolutions thus
far offered on this subject Is an ex-
preston of distrust in the charac-
ter, ability, honesty, and wisdom
of the American people, ard
an attempt to make US promise 70 be
good and wise and honest In the future
in our dealings with other people. 1t
is q well meant effort to make US give
bonds to fate by means of a congress
sional resolution.
1--WE must either ratify the treaty or
reject it, for I cannot suppose that any
one would seriously advance the propO-
sition that we should amend that
treaty in such q way as to make
pledges to Spain and to Spain alone,
and give bonds to Spain rs to our good
conduct in q matter which will be
wholly our own to decide"
WASHINGTON, Jan. 24.-The house
today went into committee of the whole
on the bill providing for the reorgani-
ration of the army, it having been
first arranged that vote on the pas
sage of the bill shall be taken not later
than Tuesday next. The fret reading
of the bill having been dispensed with,
Hull opened the debate.

SECRECY
Concerning the Meeting OF the Cen
trail Passenger Association.

CHICAGO, Ill. Jan. 24 24-Considerable
secrecy is being maintained concerning
the object of the special meeting of the
Central Passenger association in ses-
SION here today. It is assumed, how
ever, that the presidents, having dealt
with the freight rate situation, are
now turning their attention to passen-
ger rates, and that the meeting will
take steps to bring about settlement
of the existing troubles in eastern pas
senger traffic.

history of British trades unionism. It
is to give its entire consideration to
the most momentous question with
kingdom now has to deal, namely, q
gigantic federation of all the trades.
The employers have already settled
the question for themselves by forming
an employers association and
by appointing q parliamentary
council, the duty of which
is to watch the interests
of the employers in matters of psrlia-
mentary legislation, Though their
agreement has been but recently per-
fected the employers have already
made their federated energies felt in
trade struggles which have ended dis
astrously to the employees.
To form huge federation of suffi-
cient strength and influence to coun-
teract the moves of the combination of
employers is the object of the Man.

of the American Federation of
Labor, yet with its many interests

case with that organization, is re-

At the same time it is generally ad-
mitted that it will be matter of the
greatest difficulty to settle upon satis-

Evidence for the state Has All Been
Submitted to the Court.

Evidence for the state Has All Been
Submitted to the Court.
The evidence for the state in the trial
of Attorney w. p Cowan, charged with
subornation of perjury, in the district court,
was all in yesterday afternoon and one wit
ness for the defense had been placed on the
stand when Judge Smith adjourned court
until Monday morning.
The first witness for the state was Wal
lace Hanford, the proprietor of the livery
barn in Carson where young johnson was
employed. He testified as to Cowans visit
to Carson in company with Hi Miller of
Council Bluffs. He said Cowan told him
he was an Omaha attorney and was defend
ing a couple of young fellows who had got
into trouble over stealing chickens. Cowan,
no said wanted to show that the two men
had stopped in Carson the night they were
charged with stealing the chickens. 1t
happened, however, that the witness was
not in Carson that night, so Cowan asked
him who had charge of the barn that day.
Hanford proved most reluctant witness
and the county attorney had considerable
difficulty in getting him to answer his
questions While under cross examination
Hanford became excited at the manner in
which the attorney for Cowan was ques-
tioning him and blurted out exactly what
the county attorney had failed to draw
from him. This was that Cowan wanted
him to testify falsely on behalf of Law
renee and Tracy, until he found out that
he Hanford, was not in Carson that night
he wanted to prove the men were in Carson.
Ed Dulin Of Carson testified as to receiv-
ing a telephone message from johnson to
go to the barn and get the cash book and
take it and hold it until Johnson should re-
turn home.
Al Morgan, jailer at the county Jail, testi-
fed as to the visit of Cowan and young
Johnson to the Jail and that he refused to
allow johnson to have an interview with
Tracy and Lawrence without an order of
the court.
Captain l.. B. Cousins, court bailiff, was
the last witness placed on the stand for
the state. He testified that the morning
after Johnson Tad gievn his testimony in
the Lawrence and Tracy trial, Attorney
Cowan came to him and asked him if he
thought that johnson would be arrested for
giving alleged perjured testimony.
Attorney w. c. Hendricks, who, with
Cowan, defended Tracy and Lawrence was
the first witness for the defense He testi-
fled that Johnson in his presence had been
told by Cowan that if he was asked in court
if he had met Cowan before that he was
to answer promptly yes. He also testified
that while walking down the street to the
telephone office he had heard Cowan ask
Johnson if there was anybody in Carson to
whom he could telephone to go and get the
entry book at the barn and have it sent to
council Bluffs. He was not present, how
ever, when Johnson telephoned to Carson.
