Senate May Arbitrate Certain Questions.

81 doing So II is said. the Senate will in
some way part with the power conferred
upon 1t by tho Constitution, and which II
is forbidden TO delegate. II Is not ms
putahle that tho Senate may agree 10
aTbitrste class of questions I'm advance
Of their arising I'm the future. At least IT
would not lie with the present senate 10
dispute this. because il has already made
many treaties in which fl has agreed to
srburate all classes of questions except
certain classes which are specified. If n
has the right 10 agree TO arbitration IN the
future upon any class of questions, ana
lie bound ny such an agreement. il is i'm
possible 30 escape the conclusion that II
may be bound 10 arbtrate the question OF
the construction Of q treaty in the future.
Objection has been made 10 the agree
rent Of this treaty that under the first
section IL might be claimed that we would
he called upon 10 submit TO arbitration tue
Monroe Doctrine-cur right to exclude for
fign peoples from our ShoreS-or the queS-
ton of the validity of the Southern bonds
issued in reconstruction days. These sug-
CestionS have nothing IN them. me queS-
ton Of tie Monroe policy Is not luStci-
able one. N is on" OF purely governmental
policy which We have followed for cen
fury and which the countries OF Europe
have generally acquesccd in. Certainly
with respect 10 this very matter Sir Ed
ward GREY the Secretary Of State for For
eisn Affairs, has announced publicly ilat
the Monroe policy could not he disputed by
them under this treaty, and would not
come within its terms.
With respect to the exclusion OF lulln-
grants IL is q principle of International law
that each country may allow those TO come
10 its shores whom IL chooses to have adj
mitted to the country and may reject
others. and that this is a subject Of demo-
cratic policy which no foreign country can
interfere in unless il is covered by treaty
and then il may become properly ques-
ton of treaty construction. but IN the an
sence OF a treaty it is not an arbitrable
question.
With reference TO the right to involve
the United states in a controversy over the
obligation of certain Southern states TO pay
bonds issued during reconstruction which
have been repudiated. it is sufficient to say
that such question would not come within
tie treaty. for the treaty only affects cases
hereafter arising and the cases of the
Southern bonds AN arose years ago.

STRAIN KILLS GIRL
Witness, Carried to Court on
Stretcher, Dies.

Baltimore. Md. May aT--The death
last night of Miss Ida Brewer, who
was carried in to the court of common
pleas on a stretcher to testify in her
suit for $4,000 damages against the
United Railways, caused great indss-
nation today among the public; also
in legal circles.
Nearly all who talked of the col
lapse of the young woman in the
court room after she had cried out that
she was dying were strong in denun-
citation of those who We're responsible
for her presence there. They felt that
she should not have been taken into
the court room in her critical condi-
ton, and were unanimous in the be-
lief that this FASTENED her death.
Although the case did not go TO
trial ii said DIR. j. III. Mitnick, one OF
Miss Brewers physicians. informed
Judge Bond that she was able to ties,
| tify. When DIR. A. C. Harrison, chief
physician for the United Railways. in.
| formed the Judge Miss Brewer was dy-
! ing. postponement was ordered at
once.
/ The Judge at the time denounced the
action of bringing Miss Brewer into
court to testify as Outrageous" A
juror expressed the opinion that 1t
was a crime to bring woman into
court in her condition
Judge Bond has given serious con-
sideration to the advisability of laying
the matter before the bar association,
He would not make public statement
saying anything that came from the
bench would appear to many in the
light of a Judgment. The only thing
that deferred Judge Bond from taking
action is his belief that the physicians
are the ones mainly at fault.
