Washington, December 27.-EScept
as revelation Of the extent Of the
Russian resentment at the abrogution
by the United States of the treaty OF
1899. the Introduction in the Duma to-
day of a bin attacking the American
export trade with Russia lie not re-
garded with much concern in official
circles here. Even II the measure
should be adopted by the Dumu It
would require the approval OF the i'm
perial council and OF the Gear him
self to become law. And In that case
II could not take effect before jan
uary 1. 1913. because of the contin-
uunce until that date Of the present
treaty. with it's favored nation clause.
Indications arc that negotiations for
new treaty will not be seriously I'M
dertaken before ieXt September. In the
interim the Russian general elections
Will have been held and the great
American quadrennial political convcn-
tons will have passed into history. Re-
moved from likelihood OF political In
fluence In either country, It is felt
that the negotiations can be conducted
in the calm and judicial temper on
both sides that will promise auccess.
Probably Two Treaties.
That there may be two treaties In
stead OF one Is regarded as probable.
One of these conventions would deal
entirely with matters OF trade and
commerce. and the operation Of its
favored nation CLAUSE, II one we're en-
bodied. would be confined to those
subjects.
The other treaty would relate purely
to matters OF citizenship and naturall-
cation. which. of course. would involve
some treatment OF the Jewish ques-
tion. The adoption of this course may
be suggested by the Russian govern
ment as ono means of safeguarding the
great bulk OF trade between Russia
and the United States while serious
and long-prctracted efforts are being
made to adjust tho citizenship ques-
ton.

Assault and Battery,
Says Judge.

Lazo Maddish of Gary was yesterday
acquitted by Judge Virgil S. Reiter of
the Lake superior court on the charge
of assaulting Joe Sablyak with intent
to kill
The fact was brought out in the
trial that Maddish did shoot Sablyak
in the jaw. but Sablyak was in the act
of striking him with knife. and
Judge Reiter thought the shooting was
clearly in self-defense.
After he had released Maddish he
gave both he and Sablyak a lecture
and told them that If they ever got
into another scrape of the kind it would
go hard with them.
