TAINTED BLOOD

RIO DE JANEIRO (By Mail to United
Press).-A taint of black blood caused
the double suicide of Pedro Cana, 81, and
Olga de Silva Couto, 16, daughter Of q
prosperous merchant.
Because of opposition of the girls
parents to their marriage, the boy and
girl shot aud killed each other
The tragic romance, typical Of Latin
blood, has set all Rio talking. Pedro
Game was a ''parda"-light skinned
mulatto.s Olga Couto was white. But
in Brazil, where the color line is at best
a hazy division this made no difference
in the city's opinion of Pedro or his ac-
ceptability as an employe Of the merchant
Couto.
Close friendship with his employer took
Pedro often to the family home, where he
became acquainted and fell in love with

and forced to argue about details of it's negotiation.
 Senator Underwood emph. sized that the treaty's life was 10 years, and also declared that no power in that time could challenge the four principal nations. Senator Reed democrat, Missouri, said Russia had 100000 men under arms, well of- ticered, and ought not to be dismissed lightly as a factor.
 MT. Underwood replied that Rus sia was without funds, that her army was mot more than a mob," and had no real government except that of terror" Senator France, republican. Maryland, argued that Russia had powerful resources.
 Senator Underwod quoted Prince Tokugawa to show that the Japa- nese spokesmen did not regard the treaty as an alliance, but merely as an agreement for conference. Sena- tor Glass. democrat, Virginia, asked if the treaty lis as meaningless as the senator says it is," why should Japan "be satisfied to give up the Anglo Japanese alliance?"
 q don't say it's meaningless" Sem ator Underwod replied, emphasizing that it was solely for conference and agreement" under new spiritual feeling for peace prevailing through out the world.
 Ut will make for the peace of our people, for the protection of the lives of our men," said Senator Underwood in conclusion. Tt will wipe out an alliance which If not a danger has been certainly an embarrassment. The man who, votes to reject this treaty takes the responsibility upon himself of turning his back upon an opportunity to maintain peace in the Orient and to dissipate the effec- tive force of the Anglo Japanese all l:anee." Senator Underwood spoke for more than two and a half hours to the largest audience of senators which yet has attended the treaty debates, and also a large crowd of spectators.
 Both Senator Robinson and Sena- tor Reed, democrat, Missouri replied briefly to Senator Underwood.

fcur-power treaty" Taken in connec- ton with the princes more recent statement, Senator Robinson said the opinion previously expressed showed a great facility to change positions.
 There is only one man" continued the Arkansas senator, Ito whom concede a greater ability to speedily readjust his interpretation to meet the exigencies of the situation, and that is the great intellectual genius from Massachusetts, Mir. Lodge. No one can equal him.
 Senator Mccormick, republican. H. linois, interrupted to ask whether Senator Robinson had forgotten "the statement of 1916 that he kept us out of war;" And Mir. Robinson re- torted that Woodrow Wilson's place in history had been fixed beyond the power of the Senate or any senator to materially alter it. Efforts had been made, he added, to drag the for mer Presidents name into the four power treaty fight, but his enemies were welcome to all the pride they could get out of attacking him.
 Returning to Secretary Hughes letter, Senator Robinson asked what had suddenly inspired the secretary to make statement on the subject after remaining silent so long.
 After due reflection" said MT. Robinson, .'and after having told the newspaper men that it was nobody's business who wrote thJ treaty, he sends in . long letter saying he wrote 1t after hearing the suggestions Of other delegates. At last we have i'm for nation, I do not say authentic or unauthentic, as to who was it's au- thor. But he does not tell us why he did not speak sooner, and why he waited to thus inform the Senate and the country"
 Without reaching a vote on any proposed reservations the Senate late in the day laid the treaty aside to consider an appropriation bill.

agreement intended to secure peace by mutual understanding.
 Mainland of Asia
 Tt must be borne In mind that the treaty does.not relate to the mainland of Asia, but only relates to certain islands, defined in it's terms, in the region of the Pacific ocean. These include the Philippine Islands. which
 in the event of war, have been q danger since we first possessed them. I agree that it is entirely possible
 with very large expenditure of money and the maintenance of very large navy, to so fortify and protect the Philippine Islands that they
 would be safe against the attack of another nation. But our government, in the quarter of a century we have controlled them. has never built ade- quate fortifica tions on them for de- fense, nor has it fortified the ap- breaches to the islands to the east of Hawaii, and it is undoubtedly tho fixed determination of the American Congress to reduce the size of the navy of the United States rather than
 to build one that would be adequa te in time of war to defend our posses sions in the Far East I do not crit icize this position of our countrymen, as I believe, and shall continue to
 maintain, that il is far better to se- cure the safety of our island possess sions by agreements to keep the peace between nations rather than by the upbuilding of great armies, and
 navies. Nevertheless. as long as con- ditions were allowed to remain in the far east as they have existed for the past two decades, danger lufked be-
 hind every dispute, and the war cI erot han pol
 issue was raised These conditions threatened our national security, for as long as our flag floats over the distant islands of the Pacific, na- tional honor requires that we shall defend the people of these islands from attacks by other nations.
 Naval Officials Opinion
 T have yet to find the man in- formed on naval matters who does not admit that if we became involved in war with first-class naval power, that in the beginning it would be impossible for us to protect the Phil ippine islands from successful attack by such a foe. You say in the end we would win them back. Yes, if l know my country and my country men, we would face destruction or in the end we would win them back. But aftef the&sta when the battle

Conference Was ope.

Questioned again about the manner in which the treaty was negotiated, Senator Underwood declared that there was no secrecy" adding that no conference in the history of the world ever had been conducted so openly He added that one of the greatest compliments that had been paid the four power treaty was that opposition senators had been driven away from the merits of the treaty"
