SENATE COMMITTEE AGREES TO
FAyoRAeLY REPORT THE
DOMINICAN TREATY.
TWO SECTIONS ADDED TO CONVENTION
PROVISION MADE TO PROTECT
UNITED STATES IN NONE
TARY TRANSACTIONS.

Washington, March 1.-The senate
committee on foreign relations, by
party vote, has agreed to report favor
ably the Santo Domingo treaty. A
number of amendments were made to
the treaty before 1t was reported.
Two sections were added to the
treaty intended to more definitely pro-
tect the United States In all monetary
dealings with the creditors OF the
Dominican republic. They make II
plain that the United States shall not
be liable for any claims against Santo
Domingo or any award which results
from the adjudication Of any claims.
In the opinion Of some members OF
the committee these amendments
were necessary to absolutely protect
the interests of the United States,
while others thought they were un-
necessary but adopted them on ac
count of the desire of other senator's
The other amendments were verbal
and do not materially change the
treaty.
The treaty provides for the adjust
ment of the claims against Santo Do
mingo under the supervision OF the
United States; the United States to
take charge of the Dominican custom
houses, collect the revenues, pay 40
per cent to the Dominican government
and withhold 55 per cent, the latter
to be used to liauidate claims against
Santo Domingo. The United States is
authorized to preserve order and In
crease the efficiency of the civil ad
nnipistratton of the island.

Well Known Scientist Paeses Away at
Advanced Age.
WASHINGTON, March 1.-Professor
Samuel P. Langley, secretary OF the
Smithsonian institute and known as
scientist throughout the world, Is dead
at Aiken, s. G.. Professor Langley
had a slight stroke of paralysis on
Nov. % which affected his right side.
He was gradually recovering from
the attack when, on the advice of his
physician, he went South. His mental
faculties were unimpaired and he oc-
casionally attended to business mat
ters prior to his departure.
Professor Langley was seventy-two
wears old. His whole life has been
devoted to scientific work. Though
by profession civil engineer ana
architect astronomy occupied most OF
his time.
Several years ago Professor Lang
lev conducted series of experiments
with a flying machine at Whitewater,
Va, on the Potomac river, the results
of which were watched with VIDE
spread interest. The experiments,
however, ended disastrously. 1t was
a singular coincidence that on the
day of Professor Langley's death the
question of appropriations for flying
machines came up incidentally in the
debate in the house while the army
hill was under consideration.

Uncle Sam ''SlOW Pay

Uncle Sam is not al ways prompt
in the payment of his debts. Of
course he is supposed to be sure,
but SON etimcs he is provokingly
slow. The Louisville, Kentucky,
Courier Journal says: ''Sone for
eign countries have become rather
in providing the money to pay
claims admitted to be due. So the
other day the house committee on
claims, at the urgent instance of
the state department., authorized a
bill to be reported to pay some of
these old debts. Some of the claims
grew out of joint protectorate
which we undertook over Samoa in
1889 with Great Britain and Ger
many. We did not get much honor
or profit out of this adventure, but
we were liable for a share of the
expenses and for certain damages
incurred. There is also a claim of

vessel in Manila harbor in 1900.

more than 5000, 900 for the fou1ing

says: MANY of these claims grew
out of the Civil war, for private

CURIOUS OLD LEASES
ON RECORD IN ENGLAND

The leases of many West End
London houses are very interesting,
says London Tit-Bits. Amazing as
it may seem, many of the very
finest shops in New Bond street are
let on lease at a rental of only about
$50 a year. Few are over $28 and
some are as low as $40. However,
the tenant does not get off quite so
cheaply as might appear, for every
seven or fourteen years-as the
case may be-he has to pay what
is called a fine to the owners,
who are the corporation of the city
of London.
So long as the tenant continues to
pay the fine regularly his lease is
renewable forever. But if he should
for any reason fail TO renew the
lease at the specified time, the cor
poration, as an act of grace, grants
a renewal for eighty years, at the
end of which time the property re-
verts to the corporation. Most of
these curious leases date back to
d
saw the enormous increase in value
which was to take place in what
was then mere suburb of Lon
don.
Some of London's old hotels are
held by curious leases. An ancient
hosiery in Holborn was recently
rebuilt, and during the building OPP
erations duly appointed customer
entered at a certain time every day,
and, visiting little wooden shanty
in the midst of a wilderness of
brick and mortar, made purchase of
an imperial pint of beer. This bus
mess done, the man in charge closed
the shanty, and it was not opened
again until the same time the fol-
lowing day. The owners of the
new building were obliged to erect
the hut to carry on the business
otherwise they would have lost their
license.
Many of the fine ancestral country
houses of England are held by very
strange tenures. Some, such as
those by which the Dukes of MARI
borough and Wellington hold their
possessions, are fairly familiar.
Both have to render a small flag or
ensign yearly, which is deposited
in Windsor castle. Others are not
so well known. For instance, the
owners of Nuneham, the home OF
the Harcourts, are obliged to main
tain a certain number of deer il
the park under penalty of certain
land reverting to the crown. Anc
Bury house, in the New Forest, i:
held by the tenure of presenting Il
the sovereign, whenever he visit:
the New Forest, brace of milk
white greyhounds.
Sometimes it is the tenants Oh
on similar tenure. The tenants a
Hampton Bishop, county of Here
ford, for instance, are obliged b,
their original leases to get yearl,
six horseloads of rods or wattle
from Hay Wood to make hurdles 70
penning sheep at the Hereford fair
whenever they may be required L
do so. For each load a halfpenn
was to be paid. But il is a ion
. time since the Hampton Bishop ten
: ants were requested to fulfill thei
contract, and probably few of ther
!. are even aware of this peculiarit
: in their leases.
Similar oddities prevail in som
ecclesiastical leases. The vicar {
Coleshill, in Warwickshire, hold:
or used to hold, his glebe on til
:. condition that, if the young men
his parish were able to catch a han
and bring it to him before 10 o'cloc
- on Easter Monday morning, he w;
bound to give them a calf's hes
and hundred eggs for breakfast.
