SENATOR CLAPP OBJECTS -
House Has No Right to Be Consulted
~. About Treaties.

Washington, Dec 9.--SenatOr Clapp
insisted, in the course of a discussion
of the subject in the senate Yesterday
that if the Cuban treaty must be ap-
proved by congress, there is no such
thing as treaty with Cuba. He said
that in the matter of appropriations,
which, Of course, must be made by
both houses of congress- ~the house
has the power to nullify a treaty which
contains a provision for the payment
of money, but the act of the house in
joining in the making of the appro-
priation was no part OF the treaty
making power. -
Senator Clapp also entertains posi-
tive views on the subject of the power
of the president and senate to make
a treaty ceding territory belonging to
the United States, as in. the case OF
the Isle of Pines, which, it is proposed
in the treaty with Cuba, now pend
ing in the senate, to cede to Cuba.
This subject was brought up in the
house to-day by "a resolution offered
by Judge Crumpacker of Indiana
raising the question. whether the pres
ident and senate have power to cede
territory belonging to the Un1tec
States.
The point made by those who dis.
cuss the question from the standpoint
urged by Judge Crumpacker Is tha
the power to dispose of the territory
Of the United States is vested in con
gress, the treaty making power alone
is not sufficient to make such DISPOSE
| ton as proposed.

TWO More Riders Drop Out Of Six Day
Bicycle Race.
New York, Dec. 9.-Nearly all the riders
in the six day race at Madison Square
Garden showed evidence of the strain
when daylight came to-day. The sole
topic of discussion in the camps of the
riders was the show of pluck made by
C. D. Barclay who, rather than break his
contract with the management, continued
to ride while suffering from a broken left
rib and numberless bruises which he had
received in a fall shortly before midnight.
Barclays pain was SO great that he could
not reach out his hand to take food from
his trainers while riding. His helpers an
nounced without any attempt at conceal
ment that they had given him large doses
of what they termed dope before he re-
turned to the track.

his partner by returning to the track fire.

ing Plant.

New York, Dec. 9.-In the United
States shipbuilding hearing to-day
the presence Of George w. Perkins of
the firm of J. P. Morgan & Co. on the
stand renewed the interest in the case,
which had slightly lapsed during the
long-drawn-out testimony Of Lewis
Nixon.
Mr. Perkins said he knew very little
of the shipbuilding company at the
time of the sale of the Bethlehem
plant, but the contract for the sale
provided that Morgan & Co. would re-
ceive, the actual amount of cash adj
vanced for the Bethlehem company,
the S5,000,000 stock being taken in
lieu of all profits and interest on the
investment.
But what information did you or
Morgan & Co. have Of the value of the
stock you were taking in part pay
ment or of the value of the plants in
cluded in the combination?" Mr.. I'm
termyer asked.
Mr.. Perkins replied that so far as
he knew, mo investigation on this
point was made by Morgan & Co.,
but Mr.. Untermyer was not satisfied
with the word investigation" and
insisted on an answer in regard to

knowledge to give him an idea of the
value of the securities taken in part
payment.
Mr.. Perkins declared that he had
known Messrs, Dresser. Nixon and
1 Pam only in a general way up to the
time of the sale Of the Bethlehem
1 plant and that he did not know that
Pam was representing Schwab. Mr.
Dresser in asking for the loan was
speaking as president Of the Trust
Company of the Republic. Mr.. Per
interested himself in the question OF
whether that trust company was re-
sponsible to the extent of 100000

A COSTLY BLAZE.
Junk Shop Destroyed and Stock IL
Neighboring Building Damaged.

Two alarms were sounded yesterday
morning. shortly after fire was discovered
in the junk shop of Bernheimer & Baum,
1928 7th street northwest. The second
alarm brought additional companies to the
scene and the f1remen were able to prevent
the destruction Of number Of buildings
Adjoining the building in which the flames
originated George Pitt conducts a paint
store and wall paper establishment. 1t was
as much as the firemen could do to prevent
the destruction OF this building, and in do
Ing SO 1t became necessary to use SO much
water that the stock was badly damaged
In the junk shop the flames were fed with
SO much infiammable material that 1t was
impossible for the fremen to enter the
structure. The weight of the stock, 1t was
feared, was likely to cause the collapse of
the building, and the fire chief did not want
a repetition Of the Louisiana avenue fatal
ity of several years ago. The aerial ladder
was used for the first time and it proved
valuable piece of apparatus to the depart
ment. After the flames had ragged for more
than an hour the rear wall Of the building
occupied as junk shop fell. While fire.
men were pouring water from two pipes on
the burning junk others were at work to
save the adjoining buildings.
The entire damage is estimated by the fire
marshal at 81 600. Mr. Pitts property was
insured, but there was no insurance carried
on the other building or stock.
