regarding the ratification Ok the Paris
treaty. The south Carolina Senator
referred 10 Mr. Spoouer's comments in
ais speech yesterday upon the part
taksn by W. :. Bryan during the rari-
aeatiou ef the treaty. RE agreed with
the Wisconsin senator that the inia-
surc &C Mr.. Bryan was potent. but in
sisted that even his influence was not
sufficient TO induce the Senate 70 ratify
the treaty After he had done ali that
it was possible for him 20 DO. Mr.. Till
man asserted. the Republicans yet
lacked votes enough 10 secure ratIa-
cation
-You know shaking his finger at

Then said Mr.. Spoouer. Il leave

This ended the incident for the time.
