London, July !.
KING ALBERT of Belgium
arose early this morning, and
as Queen Elizabeth went shop
ping he, like any other husband,
was deserted and went out on
his own to see the sights. From
Buckingham Palace he strolled
to the Strand, where he hailed
taXicab and drove to the British
Museum, arriving there shortly
before 10 o'clock. An attendant
who had bad breakfast rather
gruffly informed him that the
museum did not open until 10
o'clock. King Albert raised his
hat and walked away. A Scot
land Yard agent who had lodged
the Kings footsteps told the
guardian of the museums portal
what he had done, whereupon
the guardian almost expired
from apoplexy. King Albert did
not return until the public was
beginning to file in, and as he
passed in greeted the attendant
with the same polite bow with
which he had departed a few
minutes before.

Special Despatch to THE New YORK HERALD.
New York Herald Bureau.
Washington, ID. c., July !.
The Administration will harmonize
it's programme with Germany so far
as it can with the viewpoint of the
Senate. 1t may even discard the name
Of the Versailles treaty.
Senators who have discussed the sit
uation with Secretary Hughes under
stand his position to be that the Ver-
sailles pact must be used as the basis
so that American rights growing out
of the war may be maintained and
accord may be continued with the al
lied Powers. By eliminating those
parts of the treaty which would en-
tail any recognition by this Govern
ment of the League of Nations, even
TO the extent of expurgating those
features Of the treaty dealing with
labor from. a league standpoint, and
by making express reservations rela-
tive to European boundary and po-
litical settlements, 1t is believed that
the United States will completely eff
feet it's divorce from the supergovern-
ment idea of the Versailles pact.
The purpose could be attained. 1t is
stated, by completely eliminating parts
/. and Of the treaty, which deal
respectively with the league, German
boundaries and political clauses for
nlalIcac"
cover Belgium, Luxembourg, the Saar
Basin, Dantzig, Poland. Czecho-Slo-
valSia and Russia. 1t is also under
stood that any new form of the treaty
would eliminate entirely the Shantung
settlement, and would explain the at
titude of .hc United States toward
French sovereignty over Morocco and
British sovereignty over Egypt by ex-
press reservations.
The Hughes plan would leave in
tact that Tart of the treaty which
deals with military. naval and air mat
ters, with Cermany's disarmament,
with prisoners of war and with repara-
tions.
The underlying purpose In revising
the treaty ras been to strike from it
every reference to the league and to
leave the United States in no way
committed 10 any Of the political and
diplomatic settlements which might
troversies.
