PRESIDENT DISCUSSES
THE CUBAN TREATY
Gets Senator Lodges Opin-
ion on Status of Measure.
NO FAILURE APPREHENDED
Western Senators Confer With Presi-
dent Regarding His Impend-
ing Journey.

The fate Of the Cuban reciprocity
treaty was discussed with the President
at the White House Offices today by
Senator Lodge. Some apprehe nsion has
been felt that the Cuban senate might
not act upon the Senate amendment
prior to March 81. before which date
final Publications must be exchanged.
and this would cause the whole treaty
10 fail
Senator Lodge does not take this view
OF the matter. He believes there is no
danger TO the treaty IL the Cuban SEN
ate should fail to act within the time
set. Lacking such action. simple
treaty could be negotiated reviving the
reciprocity treaty and extending the
time for ratification TO any time in the
future. The Senator feels assured the
Cubans appreciate all too well the ad-
vantages which will come to them from
the treaty. and President Palma will
take a personal interest in procuring
the acceptance OF the amendment by
the Cuban senate within the time fixed.

Are Baffied.

Leavenworth, Kan, July 13.-Unit-
ed States soldiers from Fort Leaven-
worth attempted to lynch Everidge
Williams and Walter Brown, negroes,
and for over an hour the entire police
department was kept busy quelling the
trouble. Williams and Brown had en-
gagged in a row with soldiers, and one
Of them tiled a number of shots at a
soldier. The soldiers then decided to
lynch the negroes.
twenty-five soldiers and a number
of citizens went to the homes of Will
Jams and Brown and surrounded both
houses. Ropes had been secured, and
everythingWas in readiness for a lynch
ing. Policemen with rifles and revolv-
ers appeared on the scene and sue
ceeded in getting Brown and Williams
away to the police station.

aid probably only Of hours. With this
being the prevalent view every detail
for conducting the affairs of thechurch
during the interregnum and for carry
ing out the election of Pope Leo's sue
cessor is being systematically arranged.
Following advices from the Vatican,
the cardinals throughout the world are
hurrying Romeward, anticipating the
holding of conclave for the choice
of a pope.
All day the court Of the Vatican
leading to the pope's apartments is
thronged with distinguished visitors
seeking information as to the pope's
condition. Practically the entire diplo-
matte corps accredited to the Vatican
Is among the inquirers, and many car
dinals are also among the groups. The
popular solicitude for the pope's con-
dition has led to an amelioration Of
the rigid rules closing the entrances.
High and low, coming to ask about the
pope's condition, were equally admit
ted to the inner court, where the bull
letins signed by the doctors were con-
spicuously exhibited.

JUSTICE BREWER TALKS PLAIN
Says Every Participant IN q LyncLing Is a
Murderer Pure and simple
Change Is Coming.

Milwaukee, July 14.-"Every man
who participates in the lynching or the
burning of a negro is a murderer pure
and simple" This opinion was given
by Associate Justice David G.. Brewer,
OF the snited States supreme court,
who is in the city on private business
"Of course" explained Judge Brewer,
there may be eXtenuating circum-
stances which would vary the degree
Of the crime, but the principal parti-
cipants in the crime can be held by
any court in the land for murder in
the same degree as if the crime was
committed by an individual
There is going to be a reaction
against the atrocious crimes with
which the papers have been filled. The
fact that tie people are now interest
ing themselves in the discussion of
this problem makes manifest the fact
that there is a tendency toward a
change"

ANOTHER SIGNIFICANT SIGN
Pontif Becomes DociIe and Indifferent
and Ceases to Protest,

Another noteworthy symptom of his
weakening condition was the docility
with which he took his medicine and
nourishment. Previously-indeed, dur
ing his whole life-Pope Leo has been
against the prescriptions OF doctors, Or
anything which had the aspect of be-
ing forced upon him His feeling of
fatigue and Indifference was inter
preted as a sign that his vitality was
fast diminishing. Late last evening
nine cardinals, including SatOlH and
Martinelli, We're admitted to the sick
room, but the pope could not even
speak to them, merely giving them his
hand to kiss.
DIR. Rossoni was reported to have
said in an interview: Pope LeO'S
pulse reaches so pulsations and over.
Just calculate how many times it has
pulCated in ninety-three years, and you
understand that in his present condi-
ton all his organs and the pulse must
end by getting so tired that they will
stop forever"
At the United States embassy it was
stated that no request, official or 9th
er, had been received for information
regarding the pope's condition. King
Edward has instructed the British am
bassador, Sir. Francis BERTHE. to tele
graph twice daily the state of his holt
ness.
The Tribuna prints statement that
HE Do11a'S raaJ ailmont was ca0cpr of
the livec. DIR. Mazzoni characterizes
the statement as a stupid falsehood,
without an atom of foundation.

Lake Chad, in Africa. is 1S5 miles
