CONSTANTINOPLE
HELD By ALLIES
SOLDIERS OF ENTENTE ENcoUN
TER SLIGHT RESISTANCE AT
TURKISH WAR OFFICE.
GEN. MILNE is IN COMMAND
Forces Of Occupation Landed Under
the Protection of Guns Of Power
full Ships of Fleet Anchored In
the Bosphorus.

Constantinople-C onstantinople was
occupied by allied forces under Gen.
Sir George F. Milne OF the British
army. This long-looked-for military
demonstration by the allies against
Turkey was carried out with only one
untoward happening, a serious clash
at the war office, where the Turks re-
sisted the allied troops.
An exchange Of shots resulted, IN
which several pun1abi Of the British
East Indian forces and few Of the
Turks we're killed.
The excitement caused by the oc'
cupation quieted down before dark
ness. which brought absolute calm.
The allies have occupied the minis
tries of war and navy and assumed
control of the posts, telegraphy and
telephones, which have been Temporal
rily suspended. Shipping also has
been suspended.
The landing Of the forces OF occu'
patton was carried out under the
guns of the formidable allied fleet
anchored in the Bosphorus. The Brit
ish dreadnaught Benbow was moored
at the Galata quay, her guns trained
upon STEAMBOAT. Another man-of-war
faced the arsenal in the Golden Horn,
while all the other warships In the
Bosphorus were standing by with
thsir decks cleared for action.
Except in the instance stated, how
ever, there was no resistance to the
allied forces as they carried out the
orders for the occupation of the his
toric capital OF the Ottoman Empire.
The population. in fact showed little
alarm, nor was there any sign OF
panic except in one section OF STAN
boul as the commanders Of the allied
troops brought their forces ashore.
These forces included 1000 blue
Jackets and marines from the British
forces of all the allies represented
here. Indian detachments having
Moslems on their rosters were among
the troops taking part IN the opera
ton.

LINKING the Americas.

For the first time North and South
America are to be linked together by
regular wireless communication. De-
spite the progress in wireless cleo
tricity the region Of the equator has
continued to set up barrier against
the invisible messages. The most
powerful currents could not penetrate
the mysterious resistance known as
static" Now, at last, this problem
has been solved. Great high power
stations In the United States can now
communicate with similar stations In
Brazil. AT a touch of the key at
New York or Washington the invisible
waves will overleap every barrier and
be read an instant later on the south
ern continent. The wireless will knit
closer the two western continents

Senator's Brother Fined the Limit, but
Escapes Prison Sensenee-Campaign
Manager In Chief Receives Limit
of the Law.

Grand Rapids, Mich.-Truman II.
Newberry, junior United States SEN
ator from Michigan, was convicted by
a Jury Of the charge of having con-
spired criminally in 1918 to violate
the election laws. He was sentenced
by Judge Sessions to two years i'm
prisonment and fined $4,000, released
on bond pending an appeal and at
once issued a statement declaring his
intention to retain his seat in the
upper house unless that body decides
otherwise or the supreme court up
holds the decision.
Sharing the fate OF the senator were
his brother, John S. NeWberry, and
Is campaign managers, including
Frederick Cody, New York, and Paul
H. King, Detroit.
Charles A. Floyd, Detroit, was also
sentenced to two years in the peni'
Tertiary, but he was fined only half
as much as Newberry. The brother
was fined $4,000, and was one of four
who were not sentenced to Leayen-
worth. The lightest sentence went to
George S. Ladd of Sturbridge, Mass,
who was fined $1,000
Other sentences we're:
William j Nickel, two years; Allen

The Jury was ready with its verdict
at lisp am. Less than half an hour
later they had been discharged by the
court, after freeing 6S of the So de-
PENDANTS. There was brief respite
for luncheon, then the senator and his
16 associates were brought into court
again. News of the convictions had

SENATE REFUSES
TO RAT|FY TREATY
RESOLUTION TO RATlFY LACKED
SEVEN VOTES OF THE NEcEs-
sARY TWo-THlRDS.
40 TO IS ON THE ROLL CALL
President, on Motion Of Lodge, is In.
formed That the Senate Refused
to Advise and Consent to
Ratification.

Washington.-The treaty OF Versail-
les failed OF ratification for the fourth
time and then the Senate voted to
send 1t back to President Wilson with
a notification that it had finally re
fused to advise and consent to its ratt-
fication."
On the decisive roll call the vote
was 40 for ratification to 35 against,
the opposition numbering in its ranks
20 Democrats who were unwilling to
see the treaty go through with the
Republican reservations objected to
by the president and three Democratic
and IL Republican irreconcilables.
Twenty-one Democrats quit the presi-
dents lead and voted for ratification,
but the detection failed by seven votes
of providing the two-thirds requisite
to ratify.
The result was regarded every
where in the capital as having put
over into the political campaign for
decision the long and bitter fight be-
tween the chief executive and the Sen
ate majority. A move to reconsider
the vote and try once more to ratify
collapsed in its inception, leaders on
both sides agreeing that further rati
fication efforts would be a waste Of
time as long as the Senate member
ship remains as 1t Is.
The resolution of Senator Lodge pro
vided:
THAT the secretary Of the Senate
be instructed to return to the president
the treaty Of peace with Germany
signed at Versailles on the 2Sth day
of June, 1919, and respectfully inform
the president that the Senate has re
fused to advise and consent to its rati
fication, being unable to obtain the
constitutional majority required there
for"
Whether the president would return
the treaty to the Senate remained un
determined, but the Republican!
served notice that il he did it woult
repose for many weeks to come in ;
committee pigeon-hole. In the vote o
40 to 35 by which the Senate washed
its hands of the subject and sent th'
treaty to the White House the Re
publican leaders had the support o
the mild reservationists as well as tn,
irreconcilables of their party.
The next step planned by the Sen
ate majority is a declaration OF
state of peace to relieve the natiol
OF the war status which the Demo
Gratis maintain can be ended only b,
the treaty's ratification.

Health FaddiStS Apt to Become a

Hard to Deny That There Are Many
Like the Unfortunate Jlsgins, Who
Literally Dumb Them

The following editorial from the
Gary Times is printed by the Journal
of the American Medical Association
as a lesson to health faddists:
There is great deal Of truth in the
satirical story Of Jiggins, who had the
health habit Jigglns lived 20 years
ago, and health was disease with
him. The Dallas News says that Jig
gins took cold plunge every morning.
He said it opened the pores. After 1t
he took hot sponge. He said 1t
closed the pores. He got SO that he
could open and shut his pores at
will.
Jiggins used to stand and breathe
at an open window for half an hour
before dressing. He said 1t expanded
his lungs. He might, Of course, have
had II done in a shoe shop with q
boot stretcher; but, after all II cost
him nothing this way. And what is
half an hourl
After he had got his vest on, Jig
gins used to hitch himself up like
dog In harness and do shadow ex-
ercises. He did them forward, back
ward and hlndside up,
He could have got job as dog
anywhere. He spent all his time at
this kind Of thing. In his spare time
at the office he used to lie on his
stomach on the floor and see II he
could lift himself up with his knuckles.
If he could, then he tried some other
way until he found one that he
couldn't do. Then he would spend the
rest Of his lunch hour on his stOm-
aeh perfectly happy.
In the evenings in his room, he used
to lift iron bars, cannon balls, heavy
dumb-bells and haul himself up to
the ceiling with his teeth.
He liked 1t.
He spent half the night singing him
self around his room. He said 1t made
his brain clear. When he got his brain
perfectly clear he went to bed and
slept. AS soon as he awoke he began
clearing 1t again.
Higgins is dead. He was, of course.

They won't eat meat because It has
