Keep COmmisSion After Uniform
Bids for Department Supplies.

The Keep Commission yesterday

To correct this hit or miss plan the

provides for the uniformity OF adver-

the purpose Of securing better terms.
A permanent committee is recon-

the inference that the United States

they insisted that if they were to vote

perfectly clear that this country dis
claimed any intention to do in the Old
World that which, by uphoIding the
Monroe doctrine, the United states for
bids any Old World power doing in the

At recent meeting of the Committee
on Foreign Relations, subcommittee
consisting of Senators Spooner. Lodge
and Bacon was appointed to frame a
resolution OF disclaimer. This has been
completed. and will be offered to the
Senate to-day after the treaty itself is
reported. 1t is expected that it will make
the ratification of the convention GER

may desire to go on record as opposing
the whole principle involved.
The resolution sets forth. in effect

Morocco, and to aid tie effort to pro-
mote peace between the powers signatory

his two years legislation prior to the
election OF a successor from his district.
