Rare Archaeological Find.

Not long since, while visiting a
gravel pit at Swarting, near Canter-
bury, England, in search of palaeo-
lithic implements, Mr.. Reginald Smith,
of the British museum, and DIR. Ince,
of Sturry, learned that the laborers
there had unearthed vases Of the late
Celtic period, and their report in
duced the Society of Antiquaries to
pursue investigations on the site. A
fortnight's trial digging brought to
light, within confined area, no fewer
than thirteen urn-burials, among them
one rich tomb containing six complete
pottery vessels, two bronze fibulae
and an iron-bound bucket. The style
Of the objects, which show character

NJ Washlngton-The Democrats in con-
ference Tuesday were said to be wide
ly divided, with a larger number fay-
oring than opposing ratification.
The conference did not conclude its
sessions Tuesday and agreed to meet
again Thursday when the question of
reservations probably will be consid-
cred.
Senator Underwood of Alabama, mi
nority leader and Senator Hitchcock
of Nebraska, ranking Democrat on the
foreign relations committee, were res
ported to have led the discussion In
favor of ratification with Senator
Glass Of Virginia and Harrison of
Mississippi the leaders Of the oppo-
nents.
The discussion, senators said, did not
involve the probable attitude on rat
ification of former President Wilson,
Senator Hitchcock, referring to reports
in circulation that Mr. Wilson had ex7'
pressed himself to one or two other
Democratic senators as against ratifi-
cation, said he knew nothing about 1t.
Coincident with the Democratic con-
ference, Senator Borah of Idaho, Re-
publican opponent of ratification, in
troduced resolution requesting the
state department to advise the senate
whether the United States has any
representative or agent" serving in
any capacity with allied members of
the Preparations commission.
Before the conference there was
much discussion of a report published
that former President Wilson was
backing the fight against the treaty
in the senate. Democratic senators
denied Wilson was engineering the
battle on the pact.
Wilson is known to have told friends
who urged him to make some state
ment on the acts of the administration
that the Republicans were "having
troubles of their own" and that he
wanted to keep out of it, inasmuch as
his appearance in any situation would
solidify the Republican strength in an
attack on him.
