SENATE COMMITTEE
AMENDS LEAGUE
Body Votes Curb on Great Britain
in the Pact.
U. S. IS GIVEN EQUAL VOICE
Body Alters League to End Majority
of England and Coionies-Mention
of Britain Is Avoided in
Resolution.

Washington, Aug. 30.-An amend
ment to the peace treaty providing
that the United States shall have as
many representatives as the British
empire in the League of Nations as
sembly was adopted by the senate
foreign relations committee.
The vote was 9 to s, Senator Nc
Cumber, Republican, North Dakota,
standing with the Democrats against
the amendment. The amendment
would not reduce the six votes held
by Great Britain and it's dominions,
but simply would provide the United
States have equal representation.
Tie amendment was the first to be
adopted by the committee relating to
the league covenant. 1t was presented
by Senator Johnson, Republican, of
California.
Applies to Council Also.
The amendment also contains the
same provision regarding the league
council, the effect of which would be
to offset the possibility that Great Bri-
tain and one of her dominions might
be represented in the council at one
time.
In the council there are to be nine
members, one from each of the five
big powers and the other from
smaller states to be selected from time
to time.
Under the amendment the following
nrnvico would bo ipcorto6 in tho 00VQ-
nant:
'"That when any member of the
league has or possesses self-governing
dominions or colonies or parts Of en-
pire which are also members of the
league, the United States shall have
votes in the assembly or council of
the league numerically equal to the
aggregate vote Of such member of the
league and it's self-governing dom1n-
ions and colonies and parts of empire
in the council or assembly Of the
league"
Two Other Alterations.
The committee also adopted two
other amendments, providing that the
American representatives on the rep
arations commission shall vote only
when specifically instructed to do so
by this government, and that none Of
the British dominions may take part
in deciding a dispute under the league
to which one of them is party.
The PREPARATIONS amendment was
proposed by Senator Fall, Republican,
New Mexico, and the other by Sena-
tor Moses, Republican, New Hamp-
shire. The vote in each case was 9
to s, the Democrats and Senator Nc
Cumber voting in the negative.
The Moses amendment followed a
suggestion made by former President
Taft, and was considered necessary
by the Republican members to pre-
clude any possibility that the British
dominions could act together to pre-
vent any one of them from being over
thrown In a decision by the league.
The PREPARATIONS commission, which
will have charge of collecting Ger
many's PREPARATIONS bill, is one Of the
few which would have an American
representative under the amendment
adopted earlier in the week to reduce
American representation on such
commissions.

Post Tells Story of
Suicides Crime

The Denver Post of Monday after
noon tells the story of the crime OF
r. H. Baugh, who committed suicide
in his eel at the penitentiary here
sometime last Saturday night. and
was fourd dead from strangulation by
the guard there at daylight the fol-
lowing morning. The Post says:
Orchard H. Baugh. who murdered
Miss Celina Haberl in Denver, June
I, last, and subsequently was found
guilty of O ST degree murder and ssn-
fenced 10 life Imprisonment in the
Canon City penitentiary, hanged him
self in his cell at the prison some
time Saturday night. His body was
found Sunday morning by celihouse
Keeper Joe Ciaybaaeh.
"Baugh had fash.ozed rope OF
sheet taken from his bed ard ton
into strips. He secured one end oil
tie improvised rope to the topmos'
bar of his cell and knotted the other
end about his neck. Because OF MS
extraordinary height-he was 6 feet Z
inches tali--he was compelled 10 twist
his legs under him TO throw the ful
weight of his body on the rope, ant
in this manner he SLOWLY strapna9nd N N e &
/ thus killing himself by inches with
out making an outcry is considered re-
markable by the prison physician
THE crime for which Baugh was
sen enced was one of the most unsual
in Denver police annals. He shot
Miss Haber'. 21-year-old daughter OF
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Haberl, 2525 West
Thiity-th rd avenue. while she ard her
elder sisted. Marie, were walking
along Alco.t street. between West
Thirty-second and Thirty-third ave
nues. and then fired bullet into his
own head N an effort to commit sui
eide.
Police investigation developed the
fact that he mistook Miss Haberl for
Miss Ethed Land. daughter OF Mr. and
Mrs. John II. Land. 2446 West Cath
ness place. who had repu'sed h.rl
wien he proposed marriage.
THE bullet which he fred into his
head completely destroyed his sight
and for several weeks his recovery
was doubtful. He went TO trial in
the West side Criminal Court still in
sisting that It was Miss Lard whom
he shot. but alienists Indicated that
his insistence on this point was a
crude effort to make 1t appear that b.
was insane. in order to escape the con
sequences of his act.
..Baugh was "a years of age. and
had been resident of Denevr fol
several months before the commission
of his crime, having come here from
Boise. Ida. where his mother. Mrs
NJ e Hanson. resides"
