 Senator Reed characterized the Shantung agreement as the Rape of China
 By giving Japan a clear title to 2O,0OO,OOO Koreans and by giving her dominion over Shuntang with 36,000,- 900 Chinamen, we have thus made this tiger of the Orient so slimy and terrible that the strongest nations of the world may have cause to tremble when it shall show its vicous teeth" he declared.

TRANS J. 5. AIR FLIGHT HALTED
 BY LIGHTNING
Bolt Strikes Hangar at N. Y. Flying Field, DemoliShing 3 Machines, Including One For
 Use In TranS-Continent Trip

MINEOLA, N. Y, July 2S-Three bombing planes, including the Martin machine in which Captain Roy N. Francis, planned to leave next Fri. day on transcontinental flight, were wrecked by a terrific electrical storm, which, sweeping over Long Is. land this afternoon, struck a steel hangar at Hazelhurst field.
 Captain Francis and other ayiators at the field had been warned earlier in the day, the air service said, to try no flying owing to forecast of bad weather. A small cyclone hit the field and the wind and lightning bolt completed the demolishing of the machines and their hangar.
 The trip was to have commenced Friday morning with the first and on ly stop between Long Island and San Francisco at North Platte, Nebraska, 1,5O9 miles away. Some delay will now intervene before the completion of the flight, but the air service an- nounced that if the demolished plant could not be reconstructed, as is probable, another machine would be substituted.
 Sweeping along from the northwest and passing over the spot where the British dirigible R-34 was moored while in this country, the storm wrecked everything in its path,
 Forty temporary wooden buildings nd fc 0f axyia field were blown flat, while the sta ble of the Meadowbrook Hunt club and two officers barracks near there were leveled and general havoc was raised here, and in Garden City and Jamaica.
 The storm struck a seven-ton Had ley-Page bombing plane, one of the machines which was wrecked, while 20 men were trying to hold it down. It was blown half a mile across Ha. zelhurst field and literally reduced to splinters. At Mitchell field a 10,- 900 gallon gasoline drum was rolled a mile At Roosevelt field the roofs were blown off two frame hangars. The northern edge of Camp Mills was struck by lightning.
 Two men who were in the steel hangar, at Hazelhurst field when it was struck by bolt of lightning, mi raculously escaped injury when the roof fell.
 In this hangar was the Martin bombing plane commanded by Cap tain Francis, Caproni triplane and two DeHavilands. The Martin and Caproni were completely demolished. gT,I.z 0P nln oly v with less than five minutes warning.

WILSON DELAYS PROPOSED TOUR
 IF THE NATION
Senators Threaten to Take Recess If He Leaves Before
 Treaty Issues Are Decided;
 President Not to Start Aug. 5

WASHINGTON, July ,2S.-The spe- cial defensive treaty with France, which Republican senators have de, clared President Wilson is withhold ing from the senate in violation of its own terms, probably will be sub mitted for ratification within a few days.
 To gathering of Democratic sen- ators with whom he talked at the capital late today, the president in- dicated that the treaty, which prom ises American aid to France in case of unproEoked attack from Germany, would be laid before the senate DOS sibly tomorrow and certainly before MT. Wilson begins his country wide speaking tour. It was said he prob ably would not be present in person but would send with it written mes sage urging its ratification
 The development followed a re- newal of senate criticism over the presidents delay, and headed off a plan discussed among Republican leaders to drop certain parts of the treaty of Versailles until the French treaty had been submitted. A pro- vision of the latter as made public stipulates that it must be laid before the senate ''at the same time" as the Versailles treaty, which was submit ted more than two weeks ago.
 Although it was said the Republi- can leaders had reached no final de- cision, it became known that plans were under way to suspend commit tee consideration of the Versailles treaty and force a senate recess if the president left Washington on his speaking tour, as White House off cials said last week he would, with out sending in the treaty with France.
 Senators who talked with the president today said he volunteered no explanation of his course in the matter.
 When he prepared the Versailles treaty on July 10 he made only q brief reference to the special treaty, saying that tits terms link in with this treaty" and that it would be re- served flor special explanation lDn another occasion"
 In renewing in the senate today his charge that the president had vii plated the treaty's express provis- ions by withholding 1t, Senator Bran dagee, Connecticut, Republican member of the foreign relations com mittee, said MT. Wilson had treated the senate unfairly if the treaties really were linked together.
 do not care to take one link" said Senator Brandagee, "and let some other gentleman keep the oth- CT link in his pocket if am expected to judge how the two are to fit to- gether."
 MT Wilson also discussed other features of the treaty situation dur ing his visit to the capitol and inti, mated that his speaking trip might not begin as son as he had expect ed Although 1t had been indicated he would start from Washington abut August 5, he Is said to have told senators today that his plans were in abeyance, particularly in view of the intense heat and various import ant matters calling for his attention bsrs.

 HATES THE AMERICANS
Witness Before House Tells Of Deliberate Study He Made
 Behind Double Veil of u. s. And CarranziSta Censorship

WASHINGTON, July 2S.-Carran- za' rule of Mexico is mot a govern ment, but band of outlaws, both tech nically and practically, "and today it is utterly impossible-an enemy of its own people first and America second" William Gates of Baltimore, an arch aeologist, told the house rules com mittee today in its hearing on the Gould resolution proposing an inquiry into Mexican affairs.
 Although asserting that President Wilson was mistaken in his decision to recognize Carranza, believing the Mexican to be a peoples champion" :" Gates declared in favor of leaving the solution of the Mexican problem with the president. The president. he said, had not been fully informed of con ditions In the southern republic.
 Penetrated Darkest Mexico
 Gates said his opinions were based on a first hand study of Mexican con ditions for about year beginning in July, 1917, during which time he vis- ited parts of the country usually not seen by a traveller, including the states of Yucatan, Vera Cruz, Pueblo, Morales and Caxica.
 For 20 years, he explained. he had been building up library of Mexican antiquities and literature and his trip was to obtain more material and to "find out what was going on behind the veil of our censorship and the Car ranza censorship"
 carranza Controls Railroads
 CarranZa's control includes main ports and the railroads with adjoining territory for a mile on either side the transportation lines, Gates asserted. This control, he said, was that "of a body of soldiers who are ready to shoot at moments notice, in a coun- try where nobody else has any guns'
 Maintaiing that a general political revolution is on in Mexico, Gates de- clared the so-called bandits are the country people, who take up their guns and become bandits, in the eyes of the government"
 In answer to an inquiry whether the United States government now is fully and fairly advised of Mexican condi- tions, MT. Gates answered: "I am sat- isfied that President Wilson was be- trayed by CarranZa just as Carranza betrayed the Mexican people"
 Says obreqon AntI-American
 General Obregon, who has been mentioned as a presidential candidate to succeed CarranZa, was declared to be most bitter in his anti-American feeling. Gates also asserted that he saw "a letter written from the secre- tary of the Socialist party in this country, to Obregon, asking him what he thought-this was about last April would be propitious time to take unified action between the radical element of Mexico, Canada, Cuba and the United States"
 Gates told the committee that dur
