Little Hope for Negotia-
lions for New Pact.

Washington, d. C.-Presldent Taft
turned over TO the senate the task OF
completing the abrogation OF the
treaty Of 1882 with Russia, because OF
alleged determinations against Amer
lean citizens of Jewish faith.
Ignoring the house OF representa-
tives the president sent Il message tC
the senate announcing that he had
caused notice to be forwarded to S.
Petersburg that the United States de-
sired the treaty to end January l
1913.
Mr.. Taft asked the senate to ratiiy
and give effect TO his action. The
foreign affairs committee OF the sen
ate voted unanimously to report a res
olution Of ratification, couched in dip
Iomatic terms. and Senator Lodge OF
fered It later In the senate.
The committee resolution was put
through MS n substitute for the house
resolution, which proved objection
able to the Russian government.
In his message TO the senate Prcsi
dent Taft transmitted n copy OF the
letter which American Ambassador
Guild at St Petersburg had transmit
ted to the Russian foreign office. In
It was expressed the view OF the
United States that the old treaty nc
longer met the political principles oil
commercial needs of the two nations
and should be terminated.
The American government, with
marked courtesy, suggested further
that It would be most agreeable &c
this country II new treaty, alonl
more modern lines could be nego
tlated to replace the ancient and out
lived document.
Despite this overture to the Rus
sian government, state department of
llcials practically admitted that ther,
was little hope for negotiating q new
treaty that would avoid the yer!
things that were leading to the de
nunciation OF the old one.

ROOSEVELT.RE REFUSES
TO DISCUSS POLITICS
But Declares His Specimens
of African Animals Should Be
Mounted Without Delay.

Theodore Roosevelt, ell route from New
York to Atlanta, had short stay in
Washington yesterday afternoon while
the train changed crews. He refused to
discuss the movement of troops to the
Mexican border or to express an opinion
on the resignation of Secretary Ballinger.
II am not discussing anything now" he
replied to questions.
The colonel, however, expressed regret
that the specimens of animals which he
brought from Africa mad not lcen
mounted
Those specimens which are now lying
in the National Museum" said the colo
mel, addressing newspaper men, were
brought here for the American people
hibition Immediately. and Congress should
be prevailed upon to make an appropria-
ton for that purpose
Secretary Of War Dickinson and Sur
geon General Wyrnan Of the public health
and marine hospital service boarded the
train. They also arc EN- route to Atlanta

as rapidly as funds will permit, it is ex
planned There was no special appropria
ton made by Congress this year for
mounting the African collection. The
skins have all been prepared as care
fully as possible and are in condi-
ton to keep indefinitely. but the Smith
sonian officials are naturally anxious to
get the bulk of them mounted as soon
as possible.
4 part OF the appropriation for mount
ing specimens, such as is made every
year. will be allotted to the Roosevelt
collection, but. as has been previously
announced there will be no separate OK

An unexpected drop in temperature to
II degrees this morning at 6 o'clock
marred the accuracy of the weather bu-
reaus forecast yesterday and brought in
tense suffering to the poor The fore
caster says it was due to the great
amount Of snow on all sides and to ra
diation. But, whatever the cause, those
who had only scant bed covering and
little or no fire suffered severely as a
result. Many appeals, some OF them
very touching. were made to the AS
ISOLATED Charities and other charitable
organizations of the city today.
Fair weather, with rising temperature
tonight and probably tomorrow, is the
forecast today. Moderate south to south
west winds, 1t Is believed, will serve to
temper the sharp air. Down in Texas
the thermometer is bobbing up around
In the nneties-at Fort Worth it was 81
today-presaging a warm welcome for
the troops ordered there.
Hundreds Are Homeless.
Here in Washington hundreds of home
less men. women and children, hungry
and thnly clad, are battling against the
snow and cold. Many Of them have been
ministered to at the various charitable
missions, where food and shelter. at least,
were possible. Some Of the destitute,
caught unawares by the biting cold, were
driven to seek charity perhaps for the
first time.
But charity's purse is not bottomless.
Unfortunately from many of the societies
that rely upon the personal contributions
OF their members to carry on the good
work comes the cry Of a depleted treas
ury, due to the extraordinary demands.
An appeal. urgent and impressive, has
been sent out by the Associated Charities
and the Citizens Relief Association.
Seven thousand dollars are absolutely
necessary for the immediate relief of the
suffering. Food and money will be well
coined at headquarters, 923 III street
northwest, where distribution will be
made by agents to those In urgent dis
tress who apply.
Bread Line Heightened.
The bread line, always imposing at this
season of the year. has heightened. Hun
dreds Of both sexes. children as well as
adults, have applied at the Salvation
Army, the Gospel Mission, the Central
Union Mission and other fountains of
charity for relief. A goodly pile of wood
was cut at the missions yesterday that
those who cut it might get food.
Those who can afford to give will not
begrudge their contributions If they will
take the trouble to ascertain the facts.
said one of the charitable, workers today.
The distress is great and the need OF
money and provisions to relieve it sore.
