The Cat is Out.

Many of us have wondered why,
when high tariff is stuck upon most
every other article, shoes and leather
products were put on the free list. The
Palatka News comes out with the fol-
lowing reason, which let's the cat out
Of the bag:
when the house voted to put boots,
shoes and leather products on the free
list it looked like a generous thing.
Many wondered why the republican
majority turned tail on the proposition.
There is a reason.
"The house had previously voted
duty and ad valorem tax approximate
ing 40 per cent on hides, green and
cured. With his duty on hides and
with 80 per cent of all boot and shoe
leather used in this country coming
from foreign countries the manufactur-
ers see an opportunity to manufacture
their footwear and other leather pro-
1ucts abroad and ship the manufac-
tured articles in here without duty.
'Tt was a blow at American labor.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Along with
November 12, December 10, 1921, will
be marked in the history Of interna-
tional progress as red letter day. AS
between the chief naval powers of the
world at least, the agreement to limit
naval armament is to be accompanied
by united effort to adjust in a peace
full manner any controversy that may
in the future arise between them which
cannot be settled by direct diplomacy.
This compact, to be entered into by
the United States, Great Britain,
France and Japan, in the words of
Senator Lodge, who reported it to the
conference, "is to remain in force for
ten years, and after ratification under
the constitutional methods of the high
contracting parties the existing agree
ment between Great Britain and Japan,
which was concluded at London on
July 13, 1911, shall terminate"
TO appreciate the full significance of
this new compact and the announce
ment which attended it it is necessary
to consider the difference between the
two agreements.

The Anglo Japanese alliance is an
agreement between Great Britain and
Japan that, in case of aggressive ac-
ton by. any other power or powers,
each "shall come at once to the as
sistance of its ally and will conduct
the war in common and make peace in
mutual agreement with it." The new
compact makes no provision for wa,
and involves no obligation in any case
to make war; but, on the contrary
aims through common counsel to avert
it. 1t does not, even if aggressive ac-
tion by other powers is threatened, &c

LONDON, Dec. 1.-THE conclusion
of the four-power Pacific agreement is
hailed here as the beginning Of new
era in international affairs, the turning
of a tide that had been carrying the
nations toward another violent con-
f1ict. The press of all political shades
is united in acclaiming this work of
the Washington conference and high
praise is given President Harding and
Secretary of State Hughes, particu-
larly the latter, for the masterful way
in which they brought the powers into
agreement.
Both in and out of the press, early
ratification by the interested countries
is freely forecast. Nowhere is the fear
expressed that delays may follow in
this case as they did after Versailles,

ing. A new start has been made
toward rebuilding the world, and
every one here is hoping that the
United States will now take a similar
initiative in Europe and try to restore
order and peace in this chaotic region
Not only is the hope expressed, but
there is strong feeling that it will be
| realized
The consummation of the quadruple

a universal desire to return to what
President Harding calls normalcy

pressed in this country and throughou,

their home at 204 Hester Street, heard
the shots and started for the street in
their shirt sleeves, Vincenzo by the
stairs and Gratiano, who had looked
out the window and caught glimpse
of the fugitive, by the fire escape.
Gratiano took the lead in the pur-
suit. At the south end of Police
Headquarters Savarino jumped aboard
Grand Street car. Gratiano sprinted
along behind the car waving his re-
volver. The car stopped at Lafayette
Street and Savarino jumped off. Gra-
tiano clapped his revolver to his waist
/ band and told him he was under arrest.
When Vincenzo came up the two
brothers took their prisoner back to
the corner, where the wounded men
were and where Maria Siclare still
walled her grief. At sight of Savarino
she burst through the crowd about her
husband and attacked him tooth and
nail.
| The patrolmen managed to thrust her
aside and got their prisoner to the
Elizabeth Street station, but not until
/ the reserves had arrived to keep back
Maria Siclare and the mob which she
led. There the woman identified him
with curses and threats of vengeance,
policemen holding her by the arms to
prevent her from attacking him again.
Siclare was taken to Gouverneur
Hospital. The bullet penetrated his skull
and he died from the wound. Vitale
who is believed to be the man Savarno
was hunting, escaped with flesh
wound, bullet striking his forehead
at an angle so acute that it was de-
fected. He was able to go home after
the wound had been dressed. He lives
at 14O Mulberry Street.

From The Tribune's Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, Dec. 11.-Discussion
of the new four-power treaty relating
to the Pacific islands will begin in the
Senate this week. While the discus
sion is not expected to be as extended
as it will be later on when the treaty
is formally submitted it is likely to
give quite clear indication as to the
lineup. 1t is also expected to indi-
cate the chief features of the crti-
cisms which will be offered against the
treaty and the chief features of the
arguments for it.
The Senate this week will take up
the foreign debt bill and will make it
the unfinished business after disposing
of the deficiency appropriation bill.
is almost certain TO bring on a gen.
eral debate over many aspects of i'll
ternational affairs and conditions and
the four-power treaty will come in for
preliminary observations. Senator Reed,
of Missouri, who will be one of the
leaders of the fight on the treaty, is
loading his guns for the attack. Sena-
tor Tom Watson, of Georgia, also is
getting ready.
Borah Is Still Silent
| The attitude of Senator Borah has
not yet been defined. He is studying
the treaty and again declined tonight
to make statement. 1t is generally
assumed Senator Borah will outline
his position soon, and if there is de-
bate this week he will be a partici-
pant. Senator Borah is expected by
many of his colleagues TO oppose the
treaty and to see in Article II of the
treaty another Article x of the League
covenant.
If Senator Borah and Senator Reed
join hands to fight the treaty, warm
controversy is certain to develop:
Senator Hiram johnson is in Califor-
MIA, and if this foe of the League
covenant should also conclude to op-
pose the four-power arrangement there
will be an animated struggle. Senator
Reed is denouncing the new compact
in terms as bitter as those he used in
assailing the League covenant.
In spite of the fact there is sure to
be a sharp debate over the treaty, moth
ing in the situation now indicates it
will fail Of ratification. Administra-

Assassin Shoots Two i'm Street
AS Wife of One Clings to Him

Thomas Clemente Siclare, of 143
Mulberry Street, who is sixtyfve years
old, and his wife, Maria, met John
Vitale, fellow Calabrian, in Hester
Street, near Baxter, last night and
stoned to talk. Unseen by any Of
them. another Calabrian, John Sava-
rino, of ITS Bridge Street, Brooklyn,
was coming warily through Baxter
Street.
His eyes cleaned at sight of Vitale
and something cleaned in his right
hand also as he stepped close to the
trio. He raised his hand with re-
yolyer in it and fired pointblank at
Vitale. At the shot Mrs. Siclare sprang
at him and clung to his right shoulder
and arm, despite his efforts to shake
her loose.
Three more times Savarino pulled the
trigger, striving with the woman who
beset him to direct his pistol toward
Vitale, who was leaning against a
forehead. The first attempt was mis-
fire. The second brought down a
chunk of mortar from the cornice of a
tenement.
At the third shot gray-haired Thomas
Siclare, vino had been striving in vain
tc draw his wife away from the venge-
full Calabrian, fell to the sidewalk.
His wife flung herself upon him and
Savarino took advantage of the re-
taxation of her grip to run up Baxter
Street, leaving a panic-stricken throng
on the corner behind him, from the
midst of which sounded the shrieks and
imprecations Of Maria Siclare.

suicide last night by swallowing car
bolic acid.
Rourkc, who handled $1,000 ,000, 900
in gold during the war as an agent of
the British Treasury, is believed to
have become mentally unbalanced from
worry over a discrepancy of 900 in
his own department. Suspicion in con-
nection with the loss Of this sum, rep
resented by interest coupons on some
Canadian Victory bonds, never was di-
rected at Rourke, and he was absolved
by his superiors again to-day of hav-
ing any connection with the shortage
He did, however, have occasion to give

the loss.

Expect De Valera to Yield

LONDON, Dec. II (By The Associa-

learns that if Eamon de Valera is con-
vinced that Ireland is against his stand
with regard to the peace treaty he will
resume his professorship in Maynooth
College and not lead the opposition in
the Irish Parliament.
"There is reason to believe" says a
dispatch to "The London Times" from
Dublin, "that important members of
the Belfast business community have
been in communication with the Sim
Fein leaders. 1t is assumed this has
been with the object of learning how
far the south would go in the matter
of safeguards"
The dispatch adds: reports from
reliable agents in all parts of the coun-
try say there is striking unanimity in
favor of the treaty. 1t is widely be-
lieved throughout the south that Eamon
de Valera has sacrificed his career"
In the absence Of any move and
awaiting important developments of
the coming week, the press and pub
lie are engaged in estimating the
