President Holds Congress Has
Exceeded Authority In
Marine Act.
INVOLVE 81 CONTRACTS
Termination of Commercial Pacts
Would Be Breach of Faith Between
Friendly States Is Reason
Given BY President.

shington-President Wilson has
ton Of certain commercial treaties as
directed by Congress in the merchant
marine act, holding that "such course
would be wholly irrecOncilable with
the historical respect which the Uni
ted States has shown for its interna-
tional engagements"
Formal announcement of the Presi-
dents decision and the reasons i'm
polling it was made at the State de-
partment. The merchant marine act
as approved by the President on the
closing day of the last session of Con-
gress directed the executive within
ninety days to give notice to foreign
nations of the intentions Of the United
States to terminate any sections of
existing commercial treaties which re-
strict the right of the American gov
eminent to impose discriminatory
charges on shipping in foreign bot
toms
Colby Uphods Wilson.
The President in declining to COM
ply with the directions of the act, the
State departments announcement said,
also held that Congress exceeded it's
authority in giving such direction.
Secretary Colby is quoted in the an
nouncement with supporting the Presi-
dent on this point, citing as a prece-
dent the action of President Hayes
in 1879 in refusing the demand of Con-
gress that a treaty with China be
abrogated. The power of modifying
treaties, President Hayes held, is not
lodged by the Constitution in Con-
gress.
Thirty-two treaties involving the
United States comes within the scope
of the marine act
Wilson Holds Honor Involved.
Termination of the tbirty-two trea-
ties, the President was said to have
held would amount to nothing less
than the breach of violation of said
treaties which cover every point of
contact and mutual dependence which

tian siren 1t angered the young Caesar and
helped his ambitions. When Augustus led
his army against Antony he said to his
soldiers:
1T is not against Antony, the Roman
soldier, that we are going to fight, but
against this woman, who in the delirium of
her hopes and the intoxication of her good
fortune dreams of the fall of the Capitol
and the ruin Of the Empire"
Augustus met the forces of Antony and
Cleopatra near Actium on the Ionan Sea.
Antony would have fought on land, as no
was the most popular Roman general but
Cleopatra persuaded him, in spite of the
advice Of his soldiers, to meet Augustus at
sea, because she wished her large fleet to
share in the glory Of the battle. Antony
then put most of his army on the ships
Augustus, by skilful manoeuvring, threw
the hostile feet into confusion. The battle
was by no means lost, however when
Cleopatra was struck by panic and sailed
away at the head of her fleet. Antony could
not stay away from his charmer, and for.
getting the men who we're dying for him
he took his swiftest galley and followed
the Queens ship with the purple sails.
Augustus then completely scattered the
forces OF Antony. Cleopatra returned to
Alexandria, where she plundered the
temples, and desiring the friendship OF
the Modes sent them the head OF her pris.

After wandering through Asia Antony
rejoined the Queen in Egypt. They planned
to escape to several parts of the world,
but Augustus cut them off. Antony, In
despair, shut himself up for a time In
tower at the end Of pier and said he
would spend his life there alone, but, the
historian Duruy tells us, he could not stay
away from Cleopatra.
They founded a new society, called "The
Inseparable in Death" whose members all
planned to pass their days in wild orgies
and end their lives by suicide. Cleopatra
collected all the poisons known and studied
their effects upon living persons. She also
tried venomous reptiles, and decided that
the asp, which produced a quiet death
whereby the features were not disturbed.
was the most desirable.
Cleopatra and Antony offered certain
terms OF submission to Augustus. At the
same time she secretly invited the latter to
share hei throne. The crafty Augustus sent
message giving her hope and encouraging
her to keep Antony alive SO that he might
grace the conpueror's triumph in Rome.

Antony killed himself as everybody
knows. Cleopatra was then in despair of
finding anybody TO help her. Augustus ad-
vanced at the head Of his army and en-
tered Alexandria.
Augustus came once to see her. She
surrounded herself with mementoes OF his
uncle, Julius Caesar, and used every trick
she knew to arouse his pity.
The conqueror listened TO her In silence
with his eyes fixed on the ground. Then
he said, BE of good courage, lady," and

treasures and valuable possessions.

Augustus was planning to take her to
Rome to grace a great triumphal process
sion.
When she heard this she said: Il will
not be dragged along in a triumph" The
next day she was found dead on q golden
bed. clad In her royal robes, with two
women lying lifeless at her feet.
There is no certainty how she died. ALL
gustus, by displaying at his triumph in
Rome a statue of Cleopatra with . serpent
on her arm. confirmed the report that she
had caused herself to be stung to death
by an asp. Augustus put to death her son,
Caesarion, who might have claimed to be
the heir OF julius Caesar.
Augustus became the first Roman EN-
peror a few years after this. He died In
IA A. D., when he was seventy-seven years
old, great age for that time. The Saviour
was born in his reign. Latin literature
reached it's highest development and this
was in many ways one Of the greatest
epochs in the history OF the world.
This is the man whose face has now
been revealed to us by a statue as he
booked after the period Of his greatest
struggles and triumphs. Critics say that
the statue was made with high artistic
skill. II tells the story Of cares and anK.
ieties, advancing age and bodily heaviness
and infirmity. The flesh on the face says
down somewhat. which II does not do In
the Vatican statue.
The Emperor is not now concerned with
winning battles as much az with holding
on to the enormous possessions he has ,ee-
cured. This he succeeded In doing Tor
many years. II Is not suggested that there
is any lack OF vigor In the face at this
age.
The resemblance between Augustus and
his grand uncle, Julius Caesar is striking.
