that the amendments can be made.
This being the case, he further expects
that upon a direct vote the territories
will be admitted.
If the bill is insisted up to the end of
the session. all legislation will be block
ed, this will necessitate an extra ses-
sion Of the Senate to consider the trea-
ties
The hitch in the Venezuela negotia-
tions was caused by all the creditor Ma
tions of Venezuela insisting upon being
treated equally in the division of her
customs.
Some days ago Mr.. Bowen, acting for
Venezuela. submitted to the blockad-
ing powers a proposition that thirty
per cent. Of the customs duties col
lected at La Guayra. Puerto Cabello
and Maracaibo, the three principal
Venezuelan ports, should be devoted to
the liquidation of the foreign claims as
to whose validity there is no dispute
and to the payment of any awards that
NAV be hereafter made. This offer was
accepted by the three allies with
the reservation that the claims of the
blockading powers should be entitled to
a priority of satisfying. 1t was here
that the existing difficulty developed.
Mr.. Bowen replied by pointing out that
the Venezuela Government had entered
into an agreement with other of its
creditors from which it could not with
out their consent diverge, and he ex-
planned that the desire and the inten-
ton were distribute the thirty per cent.
of the customs duties equally among
those entitled to receive it. He has
since, under instructions from his prln-
cipal refused to favor the blockading
nations, and there the matter rests.
Unless the allied powers withdraw
from the position which they appear to
have assumed it will be difficult to
avoid the conclusion that their course
is inspired and directed by some other
motive than the collection of the out
standing debt, that they have some ul-
terror purpose in view which they are
unwilling to disclose.

There is another class of people, those
in danger from disease, who understand
how much lies in those few words.
There are men and women living to-day
in healthy, active enjoyment of life who
can look back to the time when they
were weak and enaciated, coughing un-

GUILT
OF BURDICK MURDER
More Than Hintcd at in Ver-
dict Of the Inquest
There Would Be Good Ground for
Warrant for His Arrest if He Were
Alive-Censure of Mrs. Burdick and
Her Mother.

Buffalo, n. y. March 3f.-The YER
dict in the Burdick inquest was hand
ed down by Judge Murphy today Willis
stating that the identity of the murder
er of Edwin L. Burdick had not been
proved, it practically charges Arthur r.
Pennell, the dead lawyer. with the
crime. Pennell had stronger motive
than any cne else for putting Burdick
out of the way, Judge Murphy says,
and all the facts brought out by the in
quest constitute just grounds for the
if he were alive.
The verdict is sOftened somewhat SO
far as it relates to Pennen by the
statement that if. Pennell were alive he
would be given the presumption of in
nocence until proven guilty. In the
opinion of Judge Murphy, Burdick had
no woman guest in his den on the night
of the murder. and the crime was not
the work of the burglar. He eXonerates
Mrs. Gertrude b. Paine and Miss
Hutchison from any connection with
the crime and in conclusion, criticises
Mrs. Maria A. Hall and censurcs Mrs.
Burdick. the former Tor her attitude
sistency of her actions With the theory
that she had no knowledge of the muir
der.
Judge Murphy stated this afternoon
that he will hold an inquest into the
death of Arthur r. Pennel the latter
part Of this week or the first Of next
week.
The Burdick inquest has taught one
thing" said Judge Murphy, "and that
is TO hold such Investigations promptly.
A police court inquest is the most natu-
raj machinery under the law for in
vestigation of such matters. Under it.
persons under supicion can be brought
before the magistrate and compelled to
tell what they know while there is no
chance for sentimental persons to shout
against the third degree. 1t abolishes
the third degree. absolutely"
