READ BY PRESIDENT
Arrival of the Protocol With
San Domingo.
ITS CLAUSES PERUSED
SECRETARY HAY TAKES DOCU-
MENT TO THE WHITE HOUSE.
Provides for Collection of Dominican
Customs and Their Disbursement
to Foreign Claimants.
ITS CLAUSES PERUSED

The protocol or treaty between the United
States and Sar Domingo drawn up between
Mr. Dawson, the American minister, and
Mr.. Sanchez the foreign minister for
President Morales government, reached
Washington this morning at the expected
time and was takcn by Secretary Hay i'm
mediately to the White House. 1t was nee
essary to read the document carefully, to
make sure that it agreed precisely with the
outline of It's provisions received by cable
and with the amendatory instructions of the
Department of State. So the President and
Secretary Hay went over the treaty very
carefully and found that it was in good
shane for immediate transmittal to the Sen
ate.
Brief Statement of Treaty.
Briefly stated it provides that the United
States shall collect the customs revenues
of San Domingo and turn over to President
Morales government specified percentage
necessary to meet the expenses of admin
istration, and disburse the remainder
among the foreign claimants. The United
States undertakes also to respect the IN
tegrity of San Domingo and the protocol or
treaty must be approved by the United
States Senate and the Dominican congress
In anticipation of the arrival of this con-
ventfon letter has been prepared at the
ument when it goes to the Senate that is
something more than a mere letter of trans
initial. 1t does not undertake to discuss
broadly the constitutional questions involv-
ed in the conflicting claims of the executive
and the Senate to treaty-making powers
which have grown out of the treatment of
the arbitration treaties.
Reason for Negotiations.
1t is devoted entirely to a statement of
the reasons which led the President to enter
into the negotiations with the government
of San Domingo as basis for the pro-
posed treaty. The history of previous at
tempts on the part of the State Department
to secure settlement of American claims
against San Domingo, which have been
pending for many years, is set forth, and
particular stress is laid on the status of
foreign claims, the enforced collection of
which might cause a clash with European
governments. Finally the details of the
present arrangement are given and the rea-
son for them is described, that inciden
tally the Presidents communication may
have some bearing upon the steps now be-
ing taken by the State Department and the
navy to execute the arbitrational award of
July, 1904.

EXECUTIONS STAYED
Mrs. Edwards and Samuel
Greason Get Rehearing
BY BOARD OF PARDONS
CASE OF GREASoN TO BE TAKEN
BEFORE SUPREME COURT.
Action Taken Today at Harrisburg Oh
Motion of Woman's Counsel
Effect of Decision.

On recommendation of the board
of pardons today Governor Penny
packer withdrew the death warrants
in the case of Mrs. Kate Edwards,
the white woman, and Samuel Grea-
son, the negro, who were under SEN
tence to hang together in the Berks
county Jail at Reading tomorrow
morning for the murder of Mrs. Ed
wards husband in 1901.
The case of Greason will now be
again taken to the Pennsylvania su-
preme court, and if that tribunal re-
fuses to reopen the case the attor-
news for Mrs. Edwards and Greason
will have to appear before the board
of pardons next month.
HARRISBURG. Pa, February 15.-The
supreme court room was crowded with
spectators when the board of pardons con-
vened at 10 clock to take up the cases OF
Mrs. Edwards and Samuel Greason, under
SSnteIlCe ~ HdHS INV, anu o'hSi iNN
tine business. In the crowd were many
members of the legislature, and also the
Ohio delegation of women who presented
a monster petition to the governor yester-
day in behalf of the condemned woman.
When the board of pardons which is
made up of w. NJ. Brown, lieutenant gov
ernor; Frank NJ Fuller, secretary of the
commonwealth; Hampton L. Carson, at
torney general, and Isaac B. Brown, secre-
tary of internal affairs, went into session
some minor cases were disposed of, after
which the Edwards case was taken up.
Edward III. Deysher of counsel for Mrs.
Edwards, made a motion that the case Of
Mrs. Edwards be continued. He made this
motion, he said. because Mrs. Edwards had
confessed that she had committed the
crime, and that Greason had no hand in it,
and because counsel for Greason wanted to
take depositions, and also examine Mrs.
Edwards with regard to the authenticity of
the confession.
Counsel for Greason, he said would not
be able to do this If the case of Mrs. Ed
wards was not continued, because they
were both under sentence to hang tOmor-
row morning. John H Rothermel and
VIM. H. Sadler, attorneys for 'Greason, sup
ported Mr.. Deysher, and also pleaded for a
rehearing in the case of their client. Mr..
Sadler informed the board that he had four
witnesses in behalf of Greason who had
never been examined.
