STUDENTS TO RESUME WORK
After Long Debate Russians Conclude
60 Attend Untveratttes


Go Attend Universities.
ST, PETERSBURG, Sept. S-Following
long and earnest debate concerning the
question OF resuming work the students Of
the st. Petersburg university decided TODAY
by large majority to resume their studies
because an open university will be more
dangerous 20 imperialism than university
on strike" For Ave hours q sweltering.
perspiring mass Of 1000 students stood
closely packed in the assembly hall OF the
university, in which a new oil painting OF
Emperor Nicholas had taken the place Of
the portrait destroyed at the meeting Of
February 20, listening to a series OF heated
but remarkably able speeches from student
orators. Nearly all the speakers were
members OF the socialistic group and many
of them were out-and-out revolutionists
and a stranger listening to the fiery de-
bate would have little idea that he was
In Russia, supposedly a land where
free speech IL not permitted. No
voice was raised in favor Of the govern
ment. All the speakers were united i'm the
idea that the present concessions are I'M
satisfactory and that It Is necessary to
keep the reform propaganda, but they DIFF
fered as TO whether It would be better
tactics to continue the strike or reopen the
university as center OF agitation or
even as a temple Of revolution" Students
Of the moderate faction who were thinking
Of continuing their education rather than
furthertng the work OF reform abandoned
the forum to the agitators but when the
vote was taken they showed under those
who wished to continue the strike. Revolu-
tionary proclamstions were several times
showered from the galleries and the stu
dents sang "MarseiIlaise Tho rneetipe
however, was far more orderly than that OF
February. Neither police nor troops were
visible in the vicinity OF the university, The
only unpleasant incident was when a
speaker whose theme was the Impossibility
of studying when a crisis in the struggle
for freedom was approaching referred to
those opposing a continuance of the strike
as the student black hundred" this being
an expression applied to the mobs of roughs
attacking the intellgentsia in the various
parts Of Russia. A storm of protest was
Immediately heard on all sides and the pro-
siding officer sharply rebuked the speaker.
The preamble to the resolution adopted
declares that the national assembly in it's
present form was not truly representative,
that II ignores the workmen and the stu
dents are not satisfied with the analogy
granted to the universities but the strike
has lost its political significance and the
reopening of the universities will mobilize
the student forces and enable them to CO.
operate with other influences in the great
work for liberty. Therefore II was resolved
TO end the strike until more favorable
moment and to reopen the university,
which is more dangerous to imperialism
than university on strike" The univer-
sity will reopen September g.

The Future Of the Treaty.

Our esteemed contemporary the liner
Ocean Of Chicago seems TO us to be partly
right and partly wrong in the subjoined
expression Of opinion:
Itas clear that secretary HAY made mistake
IL framing the santo Domingo treaty. This Is no
reason. however. why the senate should make
another In declining to ratfy any santo Domingo
treaty"
We do not believe that Mr.. HAY made
any mistake in framing the present Santo
Domingo treaty, because we do not be-
lieve that il is a treaty of his framing.
The document itself az it went TO the
Senate carried no internal evidence OF
the workmanship Of his prudent and accu-
rate hand Il was no more and no less than
a carelessly revised version or modifica-
ton of the Dillingham-Sanchez covenant
Of Jan. 20; and no candid observer OF
JOHN HAYS career in literature and di-
plomacy will suspect him Of anything but
the most indirect and technical RESPONSE
bility for that precious instrument.
Indeed, in his recent explanation to
the public through the press Mr.. HAY
unconsciously disclosed his lack of famil-
iarity with the parent of the pending
treaty. Inloyally assuming full response
bility for the original agreement he was
unable even to state its date correctly.
With the second proposition of the
Inter Ocean we have no fault 20 find
There is no reason whatsoever why the
Senate should decline to ratify salts
faotorily drawn and sufficiently well
guarded convention with Santo Domingo
for the purpose of decreasing the danger
of conflict with foreign Powers over
Monroe Doctrine questions arising from
the financial condition of the Dominican
Republic There is no more doubt of
the desirability of su,h a project, in the
interests of peace, than there is Of Mr..
ROOSEVELT patriotism in urging il or
Of Mr.. HAYS competency TO shape il
when he has taken the matter into his
own hands.
The probable failure of the treaty to
obtain ratification at this extraordinary
session is due, in our judgment, chiefly
to the faint and mystery Of the original
Dilling business. After that
episode has been cleared
mp and cleaned up we have little doubt
that the desired arrangement with
Santo Domingo will receive the sanction
Of the Senate by the necessary two
thirds vote, The interval between now
and next October or December will make
a much needed break in the pedigree Of
the project as 1t stands.
Meanwhile, regarded as a human
quality, the generosity of both Mr..
ROOSEVELT and Mr.. HAY in taking the
blame for the blunders OF subordinates
seems TO US worthy Of admiration.
