GLENN TRIAL ENDED.
Court Martial at Manila Thought to
Haze Resulted IN 4cqmttaL

Manila, Jan. 24.-The arguments in the trial
by court martial of Major Edwin F. Glenn, Oh
the 5th Infantry charged with unawfully Kill
ing prisoners of war, were heard to-day and
the court submitted verdict, which was De-
lieved to be an acquittal, although the hndlng
was not announced
Major Glenn at the opening Of the proceedings
read an extended argument devoted TO the con-
ditions in the island of Samar and justifca-
ton of the measures taken to end the insur-
rection. He quoted many war precedents ana
authorities on the laws of war.
Major Waltz read the argument which counsel
for the defence had Jointly prepared. contendlng
that the men killed in Samar were not prison
ers of war and that they were not executed by
order of Major Gle IN.
Major Goodier, for the prosecution, asserted
that Major Glenn was responsible for the exc
c,,tion of the guides. He discredited the testl-
rnonv of the civilian scouts to the effect that
the guides were killed while attempting to es-
cape. and argued that Major Glenn exceeded his
peace ENJOYS and then guides. Major Goodier
also asserted that the United States was not
willing TO force an enemy under threat of death
to do what It forbade its own officers doing
under pain of death and alleged that Major
Glenn had by mistake selected men to act as
guides who did not know the location of the
enemy.

NO SECRET CLAUSE IN TREATY.
Amendment Limiting Reciprocity Obnoxious
to the Administration
AZ The Associated Press.)

Washington. Jan. 24.-The attention OF OIL
cials who have had to do with the CUBAN treaty
was directed to-day to the statement made III
London to Lord Lansdowne by the delegates OF
the Chambers of Commerce of the United King
dom. to the effect that the treaty contained
secret clause stipulating that no further meas
ures of reciprocity shall be undertaken by the
United States toward the British West lndies
1t was explained that there was no secret clause
in the treaty. What the delegates undoubtedly
had reference to was the amendment TO the
treaty made BY the Senate Committee, pro-
hibiting for a term of five years any diminution
of the sugar duties in the tariff laws, the effect
of which would be to prevent the confirmation
of any reciprocity treaty with the British West
Indian colonies or, indeed, with any country,
permitting a reduction of sugar duties. Ihis
amendment is obnoxious to the administration
but whether its inclusion would cause the loss
of the treaty cannot be foretod at this moment
