that Boas wrote the letter himself,

WOOLD nANb -. ....
Washington, d. c., Dec. 5.-Sepa
tor Money, of Illinois, is today con
ferring with his senatorial colleagu,
regarding action to enforce the rjgb,
OF the senate TO ratify treaties and
pacts OF the United States. Money
maintains that the agreement re-.
Gently entered into by Secretary #
State Ellhu Root with the represcn-
tatives OF japan virtually is a treaty
and that IL the United States rati-
fles It the pact holds no validity.
Senator Money fears that the SEN
ate right will be ignored In the future
based on the precedent established
by the present action of the executive
branch OF the government.
His efforts to raise the question in
the senate, however will probably
be of factional nature, az the lead
ing Republican members are satisfied
with the course taken by Root.
There has been no indication that
the matter will not be laid before the
senate during the session, and until
IL is apparent that the senate is be-
ing ignored, the majority OF the up
per house will take no action.
