just as both men had gotten off the

Children at Philadelphia.

Philadelphia, March Forty children
of striking textile operatives in Law
renee Mass, arrived in Philadelphia,
early tonight. TO be cared for until the
labor troubles in the Massachusetts city
are over. The youngsters. many of them
barely old enough to walk alone, were
formed in lines and marched to street
car which conveyed them to the labor
lyseum, where they We're given feast
before being turned over to the families
which have volunteered to care for them.
None of the children appeared any the
worse for the 12-hour journey and all
seemed to enjoy the attention they ata
tracted,
The railroad station was crowded with
members of the Socialist party, trades
unionists and others interested in caring
for the children. A squad of policemen
led the line of youngsters and prevented
the more demenstrative of the welcoming
delegation from interrupting the march
to the street car
This is the first installment of the 100
children TO be cared for here, according
to a member of the reception committee.

By Aeroplane to
Paris from London.

Paris, March Henri Salvey, the
French flying man, arrived at lssy-Les-
Moineaux, a suburb of Paris, in his
monoplane, at II O'Clock this morning,
having Travelled from London without a
stop. He covered the distance of about
22V miles i'm 2 hours and 81 minutes.
On descending he declared that having
urgent business to transact in Paris,
and seeing that the London-Paris train
and steamboat service was affected BY
the coal strike, he had decided to make
the voyage through the air in spite OF
the unfavorable weather. over the chan
mel his machine was shaken by violent
squalls. but the motor worked perfectly

At a quarter past two. after comples-
ing his business. NJ. Salvey left again
for London in his monoplane.
Salvey was forced TO land at Berck
France, at 6 o'clock tonight, on account
of the violence of the wind. He will
continue his journey to London, tomor-
row.
During his trip from London, Salvey
navigated his monoplane by the compass,
He travelled at an average height of 800
feet and was generally above the clouds,
only occasionally catching glimpses Of
land or sea.
His extraordinary speed under the cir

his machine was pushed along by a
strong breeze from the north, which was

tional attitude of the United States
concerning American questions, COM
monty described as the Monroe doc
trine, or other purely governmental
policy
AS amended the treaties provide that
all differences, with the exception OF
the subjects named in the Bacon
amendment which it has not been pos
sible to adjust by diplomacy, and which
are jIsticeabie in their nature shall be
submitted to arbitration at The Hague
tribunal.
Senator Lodge and others who
fought the Senate's action, today, de-
clared that the alteration of the much
discussed clause 3 of article 3 would
imperil the success of the treaties.
No official expressions were made
at the state department. Diplomatists
pointed out what they argued was
parallel to the Senates action, today,
and in that case, the treaties under
consideration never became operative
Ambassador Bryce did not comment
on the Senate's action, today; neither
did Jules Jusserand, the ambassador
from France.
Senator Bacon and his colleagues
who forced the modification, said tina
nothing had been lost in the cause Of
peace because 45 nations were now
parties to The Hague convention and
they spoke, having in mind, also the
treaties negotiated by Secretary Root
The final action followed a long
day of debate and ballots on numer-
Gus amendments. The administration
senators, though they expected a close
vote on the third clause and closely
followed the roll call, were surprised
and confused by the result. Their view
was that the elimination was achieved
by the massing of a practically solid
Democratic vote with a sprinkling of
Republicans. Senators Penrose Of
Pennsylvania, the Republican leader
in the Senate, Hepburn of Idaho, Gron-
ma of North Dakota, Gamble of South
Dakota, Stone of Missouri, Poindexter
of Washington, Taylor of Tennessee
and Davis of Arkansas were absent
OF these Stone, Gronna, Gamble and
Davis had been paired.
Clause would have submitted to a
joint high commission the questions
as to whether or not difference was
subject to arbitration and it's decision
was made final. 1t was contended that
that clause would take from the Sen
ate it's prerogotive as part of the
| treaty-making power and along that
| line the battle was waged from first
| to last.
The committee had at first recommends
ed the elimination of the provision; then

rights of the Senate.
