Withdraw.

WASHINGTON. Dec. Ex-senator La
Toilette and President Gompers OF the
American Federation OF Labor won a de-
cided victory In the Senate to-day when
that body in executive session ratified
the safety at sea treaty. but adopted a
resolution which reserved TO the United
States the right to legislate on seaman
ship in the merchant marine along tho
lines suggested by the La Toilette sea-
manship bill.
The test came after several days de-
bate and at time when 1t was believed
the treaty was foredoomed 10 fail OF
ratification before January /. after which
date the other sIgnatorles would nave
been at liberty to Withdraw from the
agreement
The La Toilette reservation In the reso-
luton II ratification was embodied In an
agreement offered by Senator John Sharp
Williams, which was adopted by a vote
Of 40 to 81
II is the opinion OF some Senate lead
ers that the amendment made in tho
ratification resolution to-day will cause
The other Powers or some OF the more i'm
agreement

employment of seamen and purports 10
abolish "involuntary servitude" among
seamen employed in the merchant marine
II also reserves the right TO lessate
concerning seamen who desert from for
eign vessels in tore!sn ports.
The proviso to the resolution Of ratihca-
ton Reserves To the United states a
sweeping legislative discretion. as will
ao seen from the text below

right to abrOIate treaties, Conven-
tions and agreements" indicated In

PRIEST BLAMES WILSON
FOR MEXICAN OUTRAGES
Father Mcmahon Also Crit
cises Catholics for "Mys-
tcriOus Apathy"

The Rev. Joseph II. Mcmahon yester-
day afternoon lectured before the Cath
Ollie Library Course ut Delmonico's on
Truths Palatable and Otherwise About
Mexico" From his point OF View a
great part of the present trouble Is due
to the policy OF President Wilson and
Secretary OF State Bryan.
Father Mcmahon said that 1.-THE apathy
of American Catholics in presence of re-
voting outrages inflicted upon their fell
low Catholics In our unhappy sister re-
public Is a. deplorable as II Is mys-
terous To understand precisely what
has happened in Mexico and how IL came
about may enable us 10 realize our
share In the crime and our duty to pro-
test"
The basis OF the whole trouble" he
continued. apart from greed and the lust
of wealth. has been the failure of the
Congress of Mexico to solve the agrarian
question. That question has been =
troublesome one in all countries except
the United States. and here II was set
tied by destroying the Indians"

ITS A COLD, HARD, CRUEL
WINTER, MUSED THE FRIARS
But Winter Means Snow and Shoveling Means Jobs and
Jobs Mean Money--Ergo, They
Dined the Mayor

The ab-so-lutely on the level reason
that the theatrical mems organization
selected Mayor Mitchell as their guest OF
honor at the Frlars big blowout In the
Astor Sunday evening came to the surface
only yesterday
Heretofore the Friars have always had
as their chief guest mighty producer.
like Freddy Eddie Mckay or some other
internationally known stage person. Most
actors and even many producers now are
seeking vainly for jobs. A word from the
Mayor and there are alw4ys jobs from
snow shovelling down, to he had. Ana
there you are.
Consequently there's a lot OF loose tax
going around that several Lambs want
that organization to fall in line. Now
the time. they argue, for the Lambs TO
give even bigger dinner for Governor
elect Whitman.
All OF which by the way suggests some
afterthoughts about that Friars dinner OF
last Sunday night which could not be
squeezed into type Monday morning last
owing 20 the necessity OF reporting the
Mayors remarks. Brief as the Mayors
speech was, 1t contained so much of inter-
est to theatregoers that the report OF II
crowded out many other meatv Items.
