MISSOURI DEMOCRATS
REJECT LEAGUE PACT
Senator Reed VIndleatsd IN
Own State.

Washington, July 26. - Senator
James A. Reed, of Missouri, the most
bitter of all opponents of the league
of nations has been Vindicated by
the Democrats of his own state in
his stand against the covenant, and
evidence of particularly striking ma
ture has been given to show that even
the Democrats of the nation are not
for the league.
In a clean cut fight in the Demo
cratic state central committee of Mis-
souri,, the Reed forces have won q
INictory that leaves no doubt that the
majority of the Democrats OF his
state favor his stand.
The fight was between the "Reed
Antf-League" Democrats and Ben NJ.
NeaIe, Democratic state chairman,
who favors the league. The Reed
men elected Luther Shepherd, of Mi
Ian, to be secretary of the state COM
mittee, and it is reported, are now
after the scalp of Neale himself and
have the votes to oust him from the
state craftsmanship.
The election of Shepherd and the
defeat of Neale's candidate was the
climax of a fight precipitated month
ago, when the Democratic state CEN
tral committee of Missouri held a
meeting in st. Louis packed with pro-
/ league men in which an Endorsement
of the league Of nations was given.
This action infuriated the anti-league
Democrats, who knew they were in
the majority, and they determined to
have their revenge.
So when the committee met this
week at Kansas City to elect a new
secretary, theh Reed anti-leaguers
| went after Neale and his league ferc-
es, and despite the fact that neale
used his position as chairman to get
proxies to vote for the league forces,
TN Reed men won handily.

.CARRANzA HURRIES
TO PLACATE U. S.
Makes Unusual Efforts 10 Cap
ture Tanplc0 Bandits.

Washington, July 28.-Acting under
special instructions from President
Carranza the Mexican military author
tiles at Tampico~ are making unusal
efforts to capture the bandits, who,
on July 6, held up a boat from the
U. S. S. Cheyenne in the Temesi riv-
er and robber the crew.
This information was contained in
a radio message TO the navy depart
ment from Commander e. P. Finney,
senior American naval officer at Tam
pico
The message said the Mexican au-
thorit1es had adopted a conciliatory
attitude and that General Gonzales,
the military commander in the Tam
pico district, had been instructed by
President Carranza to increase the
safeguards and guarantees offered
American lives and property.
Commander Finney's message said:
General iGonzaIes has just given
me information that the robbery was
committed, he believes by an isolated
group Of civilian bandits, who are
operating in the swanpy lands ad-
joining the Temesi river near Tam
pico, under the leadership of chief
named Aguilar General Gonzales
has pursued this band ever since the
robbery occurred, with some success.
He has returned a number of
horses and mules they had stolen that
his operations against the bandits are
carried on under-the greatest disad-
vantage of guerilla warfare in
swamp that the river frequently over
flows. He is securing assistance from
the army post In the state of Tamau-
lipas and will continue his efforts un-
til the band is captured or dispersed.
''The president of Mexico has is
sued special instructions, he informed
me, to put forth every effort to appre-
head those guilty of the robbery and
to increase the guarantees of protec-
ton for the lives and properly of
Americans In this section. The atti-
tude of General Gonzales Is very con-
siliatory."

TREATY CLAUSE
STRIFE TO END
President Says u S. Acts
viii Clear Situation.
CONSIDERS FIVE PROPOSALS

Principal Reservation Suggested by
Republican Senators Refers to
shantune Provision.
Washington, July 26-President
Wilson promised to give earnest con-
sideration to five proposed reserVa-
tions to the peace treaty and league
of nations covenant.
They were presented to MIN Dy
Senator Spencer, Republican, Missou-
ri. The Senator told the president
the reservations would have 70 oe
agreed upon if the treaty was 20 oe
ratified by the senate
One of the proposed reservations
would provide that the Shantung set
Element be reconsidered and readJust-
ed at the earliest time possible. An
other would express regret at the SET
tlement.
President Wilson told Senator
Spencer he firmly believed the Shan
tuug matter would be adjusted quick
ly, and that certain action taken by
the state department would result in
a general Qualification of the subject
| within two or three days.
Senator Spencer refused to DIS
close what action was being taken,
saying he considered this part OF his
conversation with the president con-
| fidential.
The president said he felt he should
be congratulated for what ne did to
secure q modification of Japan's
original demands with regard to
Shantung.
Other Of the reservations proposed
by Senator Spencer had to do with
the Monroe Doctrine, domestic poll
cies such as immigration; the right
of congress to determine future ac-
ton of a war-like character" and
the right Of the United States to
withdraw from the league Of nations
without conditions.
Senator Spencer said the president
told him he felt objections and sug-
gestions coming from various quarters
would not harm the fundamental prin-
ciples Of the league Of nations, be-
cause, with the doors open, so many
criticisms would develop they would
tend to neutralize each other.
Another development was that the
president does not plan, at present, to
present the defensive treaty with
France to the senate until after he
| returns from his tour Of the country.
| Announcement to this effect was made
at the White House.
When the president presents the
! treaty he will accompany it with an
| explanatory address to the senate.
! No statement was made at the White
| House with regard to charges in the
senate that the president had violated
/ a section OF the treaty by not pre-
senting 1t simultaneously with the
treaty of Versailles.
/ There seemed to be some doubt at
| the White House whether all Repub-
| lican senators would be invited to
confer with the president. 1t had
been understood that all would be In
! vited.
Indications were that the presi-
dent would start on his westward
| trip about August 10, although it was
made clear this was purely tentative
and that the exact date would depend
upon developments in Washington
! during the next fortnight.
