Tho President Regards the Senate Amend
ments as Amounting to u Rejection.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 49, In reply TO numcr.
Gus inquiries al the state Department this
morning MIR Hay made in substance the
following statement:
The President regards the matter OF the
general arbitration treaties as concluded
by the action Of the Senate on Saturday.
He recognizes the right of the Senate TO
reject treaty either by direct vote IN
that sense or indirectly by changes which
are Incompatible with its spirit and purpose
He considers that with the Senate amend
mcnt the treaties not only cease 10 be
step forward in the cause Of general aThi-
tration but are really a step backward,
and therefore he is uns BILE 10 present them
in this altered form to the countries with
which We have been in negotiation,
Secretary Hay's statement demonstrates
very clearly that the President has ways
intended 10 carry out his threat of refusing
to 90 furt her with the trea ties II the Senate
altered them in any way, In his letter 10
Senator Cuom. made public on Saturday,
he indicated that this would be bis course,
In the debate in the Senate II was remarked
that the President did not really mean to
discard the treaties entirely II they were
amended The statement issued from the
State Department to-day carries out Pres!-
dent Roosevelt's ayowed purrosn
II is probable that there will b. no more
arbitration treaties submitted TO the Senate
The Japanese treaty is already signed

will be taken on IT, rs IL is identicHl vi h

-Ihe chief changes in the series OF anoes-

are bv increase and decrease. The num-
Der OF toes decrease until now the horse

we know, had 20 bones; the equus has
100 bones, showing loss Of 80. The eohip-
pus had 10 cusps in six molar teeth; the
equus has u, a gain Of 20.
Horses we find, branch of from each
