CUBAN RECIPROCITY TREATY.
Senators May Delay Ratifcation--Fear
Germany May Ask Concessions.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 29.-Considerable
opposition is developing to the ratification
of the Cuban reciprocity treaty now pend
ing In the Senate. II Is not taking quite
the form that the opposition to the Cuban
legislation took last spring. but it is suffi-
cient in substance to give concern to the
friends of the treaty.
From time to time as opportunity offers
the President is discussing the matter with
senator's. particularly those who are known
10 have objected TO the enactment OF legis-
Iation extending tariff concessions to the
Cuban republic. Several weeks ago ii ap-
peared that the treaty when presented to
the Senate would be ratified without diff
as strong grounds against the treaty as
they took against the legislation proposed
at the last session of Congress. These SEN
ators are Of two classes-those who are op-
posed ON principle to any tariff tinkering'
and those who represent States whose
products may be affected by the concessions
extended TO Cuba by the pending treaty.
Senators of the first class might be in
duced to support the treaty, inasmuch as
It does not involve, in their view, an at
tack on the system of protection. were it
cation of the Cuban treaty may lead to a
demand from other countries that they,
too. be accorded special tariff concessions
by the United States. 1t has been indi-
Gated TO the President that in the event
of the ratification of the Cuban treaty a
demand may be expected from Germany
within thirty days for concessions similar

Cornerstone of the school of the Lost
Mysteries Of Antiquity on Holy
Hill Laid at Midnight.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, Dec 29.-The Tingley-
Times libel trial was resumed to-day. The
defense presented more evidence. The first
deposition introduced was that of Mrs.
Lena Morris, of 100 West Sixteenth street,
New York, its subject matter covering a
period of about eleven years ago, when
deponent was the janitress at 107 West
Sixty-eighth street, where Mrs. Tingley re-
sided. The plaintiff succeeded in excluding
the answer to the question concerning Mrs.
Tingley's business at the time deponent
knew her and also a question, WAS there
a girl living with Mrs. Tingley?"
The deposition of John NJ. Price, of 81
West Sixty-ninth street, New York, was
next offered by the defendant. This de-
ponent knew Mrs. Tingley when she attend
ed the theosophical meetings at Madison
street. He understood that she claimed to
be the successor of William o. Judge. the
leader of the movement On cross-exam-
ination Price said he had written to the
Los Angeles Times telling the publishers
where they could obtain evidence. Price
was asked to tell what Mrs. Tingley had
said when she came out of trance states
that he had described in direct examina-
ton. He said: 'She asserted that the late
Madame Blavatsky and the late William
o. Judge spoke through her while she was
in trance state"
The deposition of Mrs. George +. Mohn,
of Los Angeles, followed that of Mr.. Price.
She had been at Point Iona during the

Washington Letter.

The officials of the Department of Agri-
culture in charge of the twelve young men
on whom food preservative experiments are
being tried are greatly amused at the sto-
ries printed about the progress of the ex-
periments. DR.. Willard f. Bigelow says
that no one. not even the young men them
selves, knows whether they are losing or
gaining flesh. Neither does any one know
what OF their food contains borax and what
does not. In speaking of the various sto-
ries DIR. Bigelow said this afternoon:
1--WE do not mind the fun poked at US, so
long as it does not tend to put us in bad
light before European nations The Ger
man Health Board has declared that the
presence of borax in American food Is detri-
mental to health. On the other hand sew
eral OF the most highly skilled German
scientists have decided exactly the opposite.
and say emphatically that borax, used as a
preservative, is not injurious to the human
system"

GARDNER GOT DECISION
DEFEATED "kID- CARTER IN A
BLOODY SIx-R0UND BOUT.
Clinches Saved n knockout-CrOsby
Bests Bexenah-Louisville Smith and
"kentucky Kid" Matched.

CHICAGO. Dec. 2s.-George Gardner. of
Lowell, Mass. the lght-heavy- weight cham
pion. won a decision over kid" Carter, of
Brooklyn, in a six-round contest
here tonight. The fight was rough
and fierce from beginning to end,
with Gardner having the advantage
of each round. Carter was very groggy
during the last round but by resorting to
clinches at every opportunity succeeded
in escaping a knockout.
When time was called for the first round
both men sprang for the center of the ring
and fierce exchange of swings followed.
Towards the end of the round Gardner cut
a deep cash over Carter's right eye. This
bothered Carter considerably during the
remainder of the fight. In the second
round Gardner cut another cash over Car
ter's left eye and the latter was covered
with blood when he took his corner. Car
ter sent in some vicious right punches to
Gardner's stomach in the third round. but
the latter more than evened matters near
upper cuts that sent Carter to his corner
staggering During the fourth round the
men fought at close quarters and Gardner
was bleeding from cut over the right
eye at the end of the round. After sew
eral exchanges in the fifth round with
matters about even Gardner on a break
away crossed his right to Carters jaw.
The blow sent Carter staggering back to
the ropes, where he sank to his knees. He
pulled himself up by the ropes and the
bell saved him from further punishment.
Carter made little effort to fight during
the last round, taking advantage of every
clinch to hang on to Gardner until the
referee separated them. Both men we're
covered with blood at the end of the con-
test.

Perhaps there is room for another Lorenz

difficulty in understanding American slang.
1t has already been told how mystifed he
was when he heard the word gosh at

was seated next to a clegyman. who was
describing to the great Austrian how de-
plorable were moral conditions on the East
Side.

heard an eleven-year-old girl over there one
day step up to a boy of about her own
age and say I'll lick hell out of you"
DR.. Lorenz looked puzzled. Lick" he
said: was list dos ick?"
why. lick" said the clergyman, a
little puzzled in turn; lick is to kick out
Of, to stamp out from. to eradicate"

'well. hell stands for all wickedness,

''Yes, / see," slowly responded the pro-
fessor. THE leetle girl said to the leetle
boy she would stamp out, eradicate every
thing wicked from him. But why should
that be so bad?"
