Washington. Dec. 1S-President
Taft sent this afternoon to the Senate
a special message reciting that on
Dec. Is he had directed the American
Ambassador at st. Petersburg to de-
nounce the treaty of 1892 and that
this notification was actually deliver
ed to the Foreign Office yesterday.
Ignoring the Sulzer resolution passed
by the House last week denouncing
that treaty, the President asked the
Senate alone to ratify and approve
his action.
After three hours of discussion the
Senate Committee on Foreign Rela-
tions, instead of reporting a simple
Senate resolution giving its approval,
made a concession to the Democrats
in the Senate and House by includ-
ing the lower legislative branch in a
joint resolution. This resolution, as
reported by Mr.. Lodge, while totally
different from Mr. Suffers declara-
ton. is technically only an amend
ment TO that resolution, in the nature
of a substitute. As a matter of fact,
while the President, who is convinced
that he and the Senate. as the treaty
making power, are alone concerned
with the abrogation of treaties, did
send his message only to the Senate,
in private conversations with Demo
cratic Senators this morning he ex-
pressed a willingness for the House
to be included in the final ratification
and denied any intention 10 affroni
