Senator Morgan of Alabama occu-
pied the entire time in the discussion
of the Santo Domingo treaty in the ex.
ecutive session today. He made SEN
sational speech in which he charged
William Nelson Cromwell of New York
who was prominently connected with
the sale of the Panama canal property
to the United States, and that he was
the principal mover in a scheme to
influence the United States in the finan
cial affairs of the dominican govern
ment. He asserted that Cramwell was
actuated by a desire to fustrate the
plan of Mr. and Mrs. Reader. natives
of Alabama, who are operating under
the name of the Reader syndicate, to
get certain concessions from the do
minican government, and promote the
interests of the syndicate he repre-
sented. which he alleged. holds mass
of claims against the latin American
republic, including a large part OF the
debt against the dominican government
The alleged disclosures was debated
all day and the senate is evenly d.
vided as to whether Morgan made
case. The tentative program of the
senate continues to be an adjournment
without date on Saturday without per-
hitting the dominican teraty to come
to vote. 1t win probably be recon-
mitted.
