THINK SENATE WILL
RENEW TREATIES
Opposition to Pending Pro-
tocols Will Hardly Pre-
vent Ratification

Washington, June 17-Administration
officials apparently are confident that
the Senate ultimately will approve the
pending protocols, providing for ex-
tension for five years of special arbi-
tration treaties with various nations in
spite of opposition which has prevent
ed ratification up to this time The op-
position has been based largely upon
the contention that renewal of the
treaty with Great Britain might COM
pei the United States to submit the
Panama canal tolls question to arbi-
tration and state department officers
are said to have urged that members
of the Senate eveneutally would be OBJ
liged to see that renewal of the treaty
could have no bearing on this subject.
1t was pointed out today that Sir
Edward Grey the British foreign min
lister, in his note of protest presented
last November, when the old treaty
was in force. expressed for his govern
ment perfect readiness to submit the
question to arbitration" Therefore it
is contended If the United States was
bound by the old treaty to agree to
arbitration, its obligation is Just as
binding now as it could be II the new
convention were entered into.

NEW YORK STOCK MARKET.
features Of the Days Dealing in All
the Leading Stocks.

New York, Aug. 19.-The Mexican
situation was the conspicuous infiu-
ence in today's stock market. Reports
over night that the relations between
this country and Mexico had reached
a crisis were responsible for depress-
ing the list. and although reassuring
statements were received later in the
day, the tone continued uncertain
throughout the session. American
stocks declined in London before the
opening here, selling orders being
cabled from this side. When trading
began in this market prices gave way
generally with especial heaviness in
shares of corporations which have ex-
tenSive interests in Mexico.
Some large blocks were unloaded in
the early trading, but pressure there
after was not severe. despite the bear
ish cast of sentiment and the readi-
ness with which the list responded to
operations on the short side. AT the
low figures of the session, smelling
showed a three point loss. Anal
gamated and Union Pacific were two
points off and the active list general
ly one or more Operations were on a
small scale, through the afternoon and
the market made a partial recovery
The demand apparently came largely
from the shorts, although in some
quarters it was said that investment
buying, apparent recently in the
market for short term notes and some
bends of the better class exercised an
influence in the stock market. Lon
don followed up the decline abroad
by selling stocks here. Sales for for
eign account ran between 10000 and
10000 shares, with especially heavy
offerings of Amalgamated. Threats of
renewed disturbance in the Balkans
and uneasiness regarding the none
tary situation at Berlin gave the for
eign news a bearish aspect.
Bons were irregular. Union Pacific
convertibles and Rock Island coll
latcrals were especial heavy. Total
sales, par value 100000 United States
