THE PEACE TREATES-The publica-
ton to-day OF the report Of the Committee
on Foreign Relations. which was prepared
by Senator Lodge and in which he presents
the reasons which actuated the committee
in amending the conventions by striking out
the third section OF the third clause, will
probably end the Senates activity in con-
nection with the peace treaties for this
session. although Senator Burton will pre-
pare and make public report setting forth
his views in opposition to those of the ma
iority. a report TO which Senator Cullom
is expected TO subscribe. II is TO be re-
GREETED that the majority OF the committee
was so anxious 10 make public It's report
that IL would not grant the necessary time
so that the report Of Mr.. Burton might
be printed with IL. II is understood that
the motive OF the committee was fear that
the President would criticise its action at
ocean Grove this evening The report Of
Mr.. Lodge seems fairly sharply TO define
the issue The committee objects to the
treaties as negotiated because II believes
they involve a delegation by the Senate
Of the treaty making power which is un-
constitutional, because Il believes that I'M
der them the Monroe Doctrine might be-
come a subject of arbitration under their
provisions II is probably a safe assertion
that if the administra ton believed these
things it would not approve the treaties
either. The administration contends that
neither the Monroe Doctrine nor the ad-
mission Of alien labor IS within the first
provision Of the conventions, and that.
therefore. they could not. under any OF
their provisions. ever become a subject
Of arbitration Furthermore, the admins
tration contends that the conventions do
not involve any unconstitutional delega-
ton Of the treaty making power. The Is
sue. therefore. is squarely Joined and the
interval between the adjournment Of this
session and the beginning OF the next will
remain 10 thrash out these differences and
10 determine whether the fears Of the Sen
ate are well founded. That Senator Lodge
prepared this report will occasion no sur
prise. because his position is entirely con-
sistent. n may be recalled that he opposed
with equal determination the general srbi-
tration treaties negotiated during the form
er administration and so earnestly advo-
Gated by President Roosevelt and Secretary
Hay. After those treaties had been
amended the President decided that IL was
not worth while 10 complete the ratiica-
ton. It IS 20 be hoped the fate OF these
treaties will not prove the same. especially
as Germany has formally signifed a desire
10 negotiate like treaty. and various other
powers would do so were the Senate will
ing 10 approve the conventions as sub
mitted.

BILIOUS BILL HAS
PLENTY OF VARIETY

Nine. Lenore Harrison. the Coast
soprano, appeared at the Bijou last
night in pretty little novelty sing
ing act. She was seated in deco
rated swing and sang while willing
performer behind the scenes pulled
the string that made the swing CO.
Her songs are well-chosen and she Is
wearing some striking gowns.
The Bell Trio confined themselves
to straight singing last night, In
which, as usual. they did good work
and were given plenty of applause.
The Eldeds, In their trick cycling
and novelty work, again scored en-
phatic successes. injecting enough
comedy to please everyone, and still
playing the ride for life" for all 1t
was worth.
Some of the moving pictures for the
weekend programme are remarkably
good. One last night showed trained
horse and dog. but the story was
worked out In an entirely original and
striking manner. 1t must be seen to
kbe appreciated.

0'HAGAN SKETCH COULD
BE IMPROVED UPON

The O'Hagans have fairly good
comedy skitch at the Empire this
week, and they got lot of laughs
out of the house. The trouble with
their work last night was that 1t
went of at breakneck speed, and half
the lines were entirely lost to the
audience.
The plot of the sketch hinges on
the idea that has been worked over
time on Gie mainland circuits-the
echo idea. where two actors converse
with an imaginary echo and one
shows how to "cross" 1t. They also
sang. The singing could have been
left out without materially damaging
their regulations.
Lottie OMalley appeared in gor-
geous green gown. short above and
below, and sang. The pictures are
average. one of the best showing the
reformation of a crook, with the usual
sermon ending.

The matter of betterment assess
ment opened by Senator A. f. Judd

TAX RETURNS.
SHOW UP WELL

Figures giving the total collection of
taxes during the last fiscal year show
that the affairs of the Territory as
looked ut from this viewpoint are pro-
crossing favorably. There has been a
total increase of 2.79 per cent In the
assessed value OF real and personal
property.
The total collected amounted to 49,
G67, 1880, which is less than that Of
the previous total by $59.474.l4. This
IL accounted for through the falling
of of the Inheritance tax. The total
public revenue for the year, which in
cludes other amounts outside those al
ready given, was $S.7i9,S3G.4O. or this
amount $2,23T,99G.73 went to the Ter
rtory and $l,45HS39.C7 went to the
counties.
The part that went to the Territory
includes many special finds, such as
