 WASHINGTON. March 7.-Stripped of the clause which it was claimed would invade the constitutional treatv-making power of the senate and with many other limitations add ed the general arbitration treaties between the United States and Eng land and France, proposed by Presl- dent Taft and Secretary Knox as the torerunners of universal peace, were ratified by the senate by a vote oi .6 to 3. Senators who voted against ratification are Lorimer. Maritime and Reed. the latter two democrats. President Taft tonight before leaving on q speaking trip to Toledo and Chicago did not make any comment. II is known he had hoped to see the treaties ratified unamended but he had declared publicly. however. cer- tain amendments would not be ob- iectionahle.
 The treaties will now be submit ted to England and France. As amended treaties provide that all diff ferences shall be submitted to arbitra ton at the Hague tribunal, except subjects named in the Bacon amend ment. which have not been possible to adjust by diplomacy and which are justifiable in their nature. These are questions affecting the admis- sions of aliens to the United States. admission of aliens to the educa- tional institutions of the states and territorial integrity of the states oI of United States concerning the question of alleged indebtedness of a moneyed obligation of any state. any question winch depends upon or in wolves the maintenance of the Mon roe doctrine. or other purely gov ernmental policy"
 Lodge and others who fought the senate's action today declared th' alteration of the much discussed clause of three article 3 would i'm peril the success of the treaties. Fina action came to an end after d Ions day of debate and balloting on mum erous amendments. Administration senators. though figuring on a clos vote on the third clause was surprise' and confused by the result. Thei view was achieved by the massing o practically the solid democratic vot with q sprinkling of republicans.

KANSAS CITY. March 7.--ln the first presidential primary ever held Tn the United states. Roosevelt delegates were today chosen for the Chicago convention. The vote was not test of the Taft and Roosevelt strength as the Taft men did not vote. Supporters of the president say the primary was illegal and they will send contestiag delegation to the republican national convention.
 In Kansas City the primary was held in the same booths as the city primary and for this reason the Taft supporters say the presidential preference primary was illegal. Leaders Of the Taft fore es advised Taft men to say away from the polls today and the advlce wa, followed. The Taft men will hoiJ their convention next Saturday.
 Only about 5000 republican votes were cast at the primary out of total of more than 25.000 If all the Roose- welt men voted on this showing. the Taft forces have an immense majority in this district It is possible. how ever. that many of the supporters of the former president also refrained from voting and under all the circum- stances it is difficult to tell just what is the sentiment here as between the rival candidates.
 President Taft's friends are confi- dent that they have a heavy majorit! in the district and point 10 the fact that the Roosevelt vote is only about one-fifth of the registered vote of the district.
