WASHINGTON, Jan. 10.-The draft of the treaty prepared by naval and legal experts covering the five power contract for a reduction and nmlta- tion of naval armament was given into the hands of five delegates last night and was jealously guarded as to text. Various national groups are said to have informed Secretary of State Hughes that both the text and sub- stance of the proposed pact are look ed on with high approval:
 As a result of study of the text of the rough draft of the naval treaty, it is understood several of the dele gates have decided to recommend amendments, but these for the most part are designew to clarify the language of the treaty and in no case affect it's general broad provisions.
 Consideration will also be urged of limitations to be placed on fortifica- tions.
 It is understood the term of. the treaty is from ten to fifteen years, the American idea, to which the other powers showed no opposition. It is indicated the treaty will con- tinue indefinitely after the fifteen- year period unless formally denounc- ed by one or more of the parties aftar\ reasonable notice.

New York, April 12.-The spectre
of violent death which apparently has
been relentlessly tracking the male
line of the Duryea's, wealthy New
York society family, claimed its third
victim with the suicide in San Fran
cisco yesterday of Major Frank w.
Duryea.
The first was General Hiram Dur
year, white-haired, picturesque fig
ure, who led the Zouaves in the
stirring days of the civil war and
who on May 5, 1914, at the age Of 81,
was shot down and killed by his son,
Chester, in his home in the Bay
Ridge section of Brooklyn.
Chester, who was alleged to have
fired the fatal shot after his father
had refused a demand for money, is
now in an insane asylum.
The next Duryea to fall was killed
by his own hand. He was Harry H.
Duryea, a brother of Chester and
Frank.

to an unverifed report, before the ad.

economic conference. The "army hol-

Disarmament continues to be the
most discussed question among the
delegates here, although barred from
formal consideration following the in

soviet foreign minister, endeavored to
bring it before the conference.
The statement of Louis Barthou,

on this question, despite the attempts

"This is a purely economic confer

Asked if France would be disposed

PARENTS Of BEAUvA|S
TESTIFY IN DEFENSE
Of MRS, ANN ST|LLMAN

Montreal, April 12-Severe cross
examination awaited the full-blooded
Indian, Louis Beauvais, father of the
guide, Fred Beauvais, when trial Of
the Stillman divorce case was resum-
ed here today.
Yesterday the Indian parents de-
tended their son and Mrs. Anne u.
'Stillman against the charges of mis-
conduct made by James A. Stillman,
New York banker, who alleged in
suing for divorce that they had mis-
behaved in the Quebec woods and
that Fred Beauvais was the father of
little Guy Stillman.
By their testimony, Fred's father
and mother sought to show it would
have been impossible for workmen at
the Stillman summer camp near
Grande Anse, Quebec, to have drawn
aside roller curtains and peeped at
Beauvas and Mrs. Stillman in the
bed rooms of the Lodge. They said
there were no roller curtains on the
windows at that time; the summer of
1918. Mrs. Beauvais, however, was
declared to have been uncertain on
this point.
There were other points of differ
ence between their statements and
those of their neighbors who more
than year ago testified against Mrs.
Stillman. The neighbors swore thai
the Stillman children-Anne, Alexan-
Mrs, Stillman and Beauvais occupied
rooms in the lodge and that

Mr.. and Mrs. Beauvais said there
was no tent ON the place at that time
The children and Mrs. Stillman occu-
pied rooms on the ground floor, they
said, and Beauvais slept upstairs.
Mrs. Beauvais after identifying
Fred's handwriting on three insigni-
ficsnt notes, however, was said to
have also identified letter in which
Fred told of the tents being on the
place.

| New York, April 12.-Dr. Adolf
Lorenz was passenger on the La

was accompanied by Anton Wedl,
importer, who induced him to come to

DR.. Lorenz, who treated thousands
Of cripples during his visit, at first
was forced to curtail his operations
because of the opposition he met

conducted free clinics under the guild

while his father was in this country.
The younger son, who is nearly 1S,
will enter Columbia next fall, pre-
paratory to beginning a medical ca

Tired and weary from the work
that he has performed here, DR.. Lo-

which greeted me and surrounded
me everywhere is something l shall
always remember. 1t gave me
strength to do my work in the face
of hostility will not say that-but
of obstacles which were placed in my
way by some members of my profess
sion.o
This oblique reference was the only
comment he would make on the un-
friendly attitude of certain sections
of the American medical profession,
which became so pronounced in the
early stages of his visit as to arouse
widespread newspaper comment and
virtually amount to boycott against
him in certain hospitals and clinics.

marked improvement has been set

with the feeling that have not in

over thought of that possibility trou-
bled me, but it has worked out the
other way. We have been able to
pull together.

only partly mine. Indeed, without |
the assistance of the medical men
who collaborated with me in New |

Commoner Prefers Not
to Enter Into Doubt
full Contest
URGED TO RECONSIDER
Issues Statement That Is
Consistent With His
Original Plans
tBy Associated Press,

Miami, April 12.-Many kilograms
urging William Jennings Bryan tc
reconsider his decision announced
yesterday not to be a candidate for
the democratic nomination for the
senate are being received here, and
friends are urging him to wait until
there has been sufficient time for all
of the people of the state to become
alive to the possibility of his accept
ing the nomination.
Mr.. Bryan announced when his
name was first suggested for the
senate that he would not be a candi-
date in the strict sense of the word.
He stated that if the people indicat-
ed that they wished him to lead them
he would accept the honor, and the
statement he issued yesterday indi-
Gates that he believes the demand is
not as great as he would have it were
he to make the race. His statement
in full follows:
Believing that, as a United States
senator, l could render valuable
service to the state of Florida and to
the democratic party in the nation, l
stated about two months ago in an
swer to inquiries, that I would con-
slider call from the democrats of
this state from the standpoint of
duty, but that l had no intention of
entering into contest for any Of
flee.
"Since that time petitions, numer-
ously signed, have been received
from every part of the state asking
me to file as candidate.
81 am profoundly gratified to
these friends for their generous. con-
fidence and am happy to know that
I can count on their cooperation in
Florida politics. But no assurance
of success, unless it were over
would justify me in enter
ing into contest for office.
"My fights have been made for
democratic principles and policies
and have made them as the repre-
sentative of voters who desired me to
act as their spokesman. Nearly all
of these principles and policies have
been, I am glad to say, written into
the unrepealable law of the land. I
cannot at. my age turn from such
enjoyable work to personal politics.
1t is only fair to others who may
desire to file that l at once announce
that | shall not be candidate.
GAS a private citizen shall be
just as active in all that concerns
the welfare of the state as I would
be in office, and shall, as soon as
possible, visit all the counties in the
state. These visits will be the more |
enjoyable because l can thus be-
come acquainted with all the people |
regardless of their views on political
