of the attorney general, is feasible, and
proeedinsg will be instituted as soon as
possible.

to put one on properly before the emergency

Hence, If everybody who goes up and down the

TIE TREATMENT or TEE TREATY.

It would seen ungracious and 1t would doubt
less be unjust to say that even while noninally
ratifytRg II the Senate did not mean that the
Cuban reciprocity treaty should become opera
tive. If, however, any one should suspect the
Senate of a possible willingness to see that
treaty fail, he would scarcely be an appropriate
object of Senatorial resentment at unfounded
aspersions. Rather would that august body
have itself to blame for the suspicion, for which
its record certainly seems to afford some ground,
and nc part Of the record more than that of the
final Gays proceedings The brevity Of the
closiuE debate and the strength Of the majority
in tkE nnal vote incline people to believe that
the might readily have been disposed Of
In the REGULAR session of the Senate had.some
os the leaders of the Senate been desirous of
and fesofute to that end. If the treaty could
have been ratified then as well as Bew, grave
responsibility W6uld seem to have been incurred
by those who for whatever reason permitted
the Way.
Forthe postpoueraent Of ratification to spe-
cial session meant something far more than the
Inconvenience and expense Of holding that spe-
ciaI. session. Had the work been done in the
regular session the Heuse Cf Representa- ti7es
could then have enacted the enabling legisia-
tion needed for its practical execution and the
| treaty could have become operative at once.
Now the House is not in session, and will not
be. unless specially summoned, before Decen-
Der next In the most favorable circumstances,
Therefore It will be pine months before the
treaty can be effective. But the Senate has
| amended the treaty in way that is expected
to provoke some prolonged discussions In the
House, and perhaps some conferences, dead
| locks or what not between the House and the
Senate, which may carry final aetion upon it
far over into next year. Indeed, 1t is intimated
| at Washington that the House Is likely to re-
| gard the Senate's amendments as an invitation
TO the House to make some further amendments
itself IS though it we're constitutional part Of
/ the treaty making power-a performance which
doubtless would be resented by the very Senate
which made the Inviting amendments.

NOT wAsHrNeToNs HEADQUARTERS.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: In your interesting and timely article con-
eerning historic places that have been obliterated
you state that the Kennedy Mansion was occupied
In the Revolution by Washington as his head
quarters.
Perhaps you will not object to correcting this
error, which from time to time. makes its appear
ance although 1t exposed some years ago by
the psnstakIng librarian OF the NeW-York Histori-
Society. Washington, at the time referred to IN
your article, made his headquarters at Richmond
Hill, in Greenwich Village; later at the Jumel Man
sion-never at the Kennedy House.
1t is not surprising. 1t must be admitted, that the
mistake keeps cropping up. in view OF the fact that
a tablet affixed to the building that occupies the
site of the Kennedy House perpetuates the error
This is not the only biundering tablet in the CITY,
and there Is likelihood that there will be more.
Some time age an announcement appeared in the
papers stating that commission consisting OF rep
resentatlyes Of the New-York Historical Society,
the American Scenic and Historic Preservation So
ciety and the City History Club to be appointed
to determine the accuracy of historic sites and In
