0vERRuLE PRESIDENT
ON TREATIES FOR ARBITRATION
Senate Jealous Of Its Prerogatives-
Large Majority Votes Down
Presidents Request.

Washington, Feb. 13.-The Senate
yesterday ignored an earnest plea by
the President for ratification Of the ar
bitratlon treaties with eight European
governments as drawn, amended the
treaties in conformity with Its ideas
of the Sfnate's prerogative and ratified
them. There were only nine votes
cast In favor of acceding to the desires
Of the President.
The situation in the Senate over the
arbitration treaties has been strained
for several weeks. The first protest
against the treaties were made by SEN
ators from southern states who sus-
gested an amendment which precluded
the possibility of arbitration claims
against their states by reason OF re-
pud!ated bonds. Later 1t was sug-
gested that an amendment should be
adopted which changed but one word.
that CT agreement" to treaty. in ar
tIcle 2. making the article read as fol
lows:
"In each individual case the high
contracting parties, before appealing
to the permanent court OF arbitration.
shall conclude special treaty def1n-
Ing. clearly the matter In dispute, the
scope OF the powers of the arbttrators
and the periods to be fixed for the
formation of the arbitral tribunal and
the several stages Of the procedure"
The amendment answered the pur-
pose of the protests made by the south
ern senators. and In addition to that
established the principle that any mat
ter in the nature of treaty with for
eign government must be consum-
mated by the President, with, the con-
sent of the Senate" In this form the
committee reported the treaties to the
Senate.
The amendment was adopted by a
vote of SO to 9.
The President was criticised sharply
because of his letter declaring 1t to be
step backward to ratify the treaties
in the form proposed by the Senate
committee on foreign relations.

Kansas Oil Eiaht.

Topeka. Kan, Feb. 13.-The people
of Kansas are aroused as never before
in the states history over the action
of the Standard Oil Company In shut
ting down all operations in this state.
Thousands OF letters from over the
state have been received by members
of the Legislature urging them to pass
the state refinery bill. The Chanute
oil producers last night voted unani-
mously to communicate with Thomas
w. Lawson of Boston and the Pure Oil
Company of Pennsylvania and invite
them to interest themselves in the re
fining of the crude petroleum and the
manufacture of its bi-products In Kan
sas and to advise them that In tho
judgment OF the association they
would have the hearty cooperation of
the people of Kansas.
The oil producers of Chanute dis
trict have sent this statement to the
House members:
THE act of the blacklisting of Kan
sas oil is hereby denounced. We be-
lieve 1t was done to bring about con
ditIon of panic in the oil fields and to
influence the Legislature to defeat the
proposed laws. We are proud to see 1t
is having the opposite effect"
