organizations to hold their meetings in

SANTo DOMINGO TREATY WILL
BE DISPOSED OF BY THE
END OF THE WEEK.
SENATORS SHOW MUCH INDIFFERENCE
NOT LIKELY ANY EFFORT WILL
BE MADE TO LINE UP THE
OPPOSING FORCES.

Washington, March 13.-Many SEN
ators are indulging In speculation as
to the length of the session required
to take action on the Santo Domingo
treaty and whether party lines Will be
drawn when the convention comes to a
vote Thus far n has not developed
that either party will caucus and, In
fact, SO much Indifference as to the
fate OF the treaty has been manifest.
cd, except In small circles of both par
ties, that II Is not believed there will
be any attempt to line up the forces.
Few senators were at the Capitol
during the day, but nearly all OF those
who were In their committee rooms
expressed the opinion that IL there
should not be line up (and they are
agreed that one is not likely) the
treaty will be brought to vote by the
end of the week and that the special
session may be adjourned sine die on
Saturday.
The amendment made by Senator
Hale terminating the proceedings un-
der the treaty at the expiration of ten
years unless extended by another
treaty If adopted will satisfy at least
three Republican members who have
been disposed to vote against the rati-
fication of the treaty. IL is believed
that this amendment will bring at
least fve Democratic votes for the
treaty One Democrat said that with
the amendments adopted In the com
mittee and that suggested by Senator
Hale the treaty Is In as good condition
as could be demanded by his party
and the question now to be considered
is whether the party will vote for a
treaty In any form which proposes that
the United States shall take over the
management of the financial affairs of
another government.

Germany's Indemnity Claims consid-
cred Excessive.


Washington, March 13.--The nego-
tiations between America, Great Brit
ain and Germany looking to a settle
ment of the Samoan indemnity claims
have practically come to standstill
owing TO wide difference of opinion
as to the extent Of damage sustained
by the German subjects In the Samoan
group as a result of joint operations
by the American and British naval
forces in 1900 to suppress rebellion.
The question of the liability of Amer
lea and Great Britain for the damages
sustained by German plantation own
ers was decided by King Oscar of
Sweden in favor of the claimants in
1909, but the arbitrator did not at.
tempt TO assume individual damages,
leaving these to be adjusted by nego-
tiations. These negotiations have
dragged along ever since 1902 and the
principals now find themselves no
nearer an agreement than at the be-
ginning. The German claims amount
to about $4,000. The British and
American negotiators insist that this
sum Is excessive and that $4,000 is a
good price for the property destroyed
1t Is probable ii will In the end be
necessary to appoint a commission to
take testimony as to the extent of the
actual damage, though the smallness
OF the amount involved would seem to
make this an unduly expensive under
taking.

Arguments Concluded In Trial Of Mrs
Chadwick.

Gle, eland, March 13.-The Chad.
wick case has been given TO the jury.
Arguments were concluded at 2 $40
y. m. and Judge Tayler then charged
the jury, which retired about o'clock.
j. p. Dawley, senior counsel for Mrs.
Chadwick, resumed his argument when
court opened. Mr. Dawley, who is full
OF nervous energy, made vigorous on
slaught On the evidence submitted by
the government He declared that
absolutely nothing had been submitted
tending to prove that prior to secur-
ing the certification of checks by
Cashier Spear Of the Oberlin bank
Mrs. Chadwick had made any agree
ment or arrangement to that effect
with him.
In the warmth of his argument Mr..
Dawley accused District Attorney Sui
livan Of being a coward because he
was attacking woman, declaring that
he was as much a coward as Adam
when he sought to lay the blame for
his misconduct on Eve.
Mr.. Dawley concluded his argument,
after speaking for Esactly two hours.
and District Attorney Sullivan then
rose to make the closing argument for
the state and the final one of the case.
In making his argument Attorney
Dawley, in emphasizing point,
slapped juror on the knee and once
called Juror Haymaker by name. The
district attorney declared In his argu-
ment that the defense believed 1t had
influenced one juror without, however,
indicating him in any way.

of Cassie Chadwick over men has not
