Somewhere in
America, Deserted,
Discredited-F

New York, Mar. is (By a. P.)-
The Princess Fatima, Sultana of Ka-
boul in Afghanistan, forsaken by her
lawyer, bcreft of her Al carat dia-
mond, denied further shelter by her
unpaid landlady, stepped into taxi
cab today to drive to the steamer
City of Lahore and embark with her
three year young princelings for n
voyage to Bombay in a suite furnish
ed by the British governmcnt-but
she never reached the pier.
Tonight she was secluded some
where, and those who knew how her
fortune of a few months ago had
abbed away doubted if her purse had
the cost of bed and board. 1t was
said she had decided to stay and try
to recover her big diamond, held by
Uncle Sam.
The city of Lahore was sailing on
the breast of the Atlantic tonight.
The British consul general was as
surfing those who inquired that he
and the empire he represents have no
further interest in the doings or the
undongs of the once proud land
wealthy lady who dazZled Broadway
last summer with her nose jewel,
and a little later climbed the steps of
the White House to be ushered into
the presence of the President of the
United States with all the dignity cue
a royal guest.
The United States government was
holding tight tonight TO the A carat
diamond that the princess naively
brought into America without pay
ing duty and then tried to sell. Paul
Kotch. the lawyer who talked for the
princess and fought for the princess
when those whose bills she had not
paid went to the court room, m
nounced that he was through. Mrs.
Ida NJ. Wyllie, in whose lodgings the
princess has remained since last No
vember, said she too had reached the
end of her patience and that Fatima
could never again lay her head upon
her bed reat a meal at her unpre-
tentious table. For a while the prin-
cess paid her bills at the boarding
house, and then for many weeks she
overlooked that practice, the land
lady said. Three weeks ago the Brit
ish consul general took up the bur-
den and continued it until after
after breakfast this morning.
stephen Weinberg, who took off his
morning frock and put on a naval
uniform the day he went up to the
White House and told President
Harding he was the official escort for
Princess Fatima. was also in trouble
today. He was put under $4,000 bail
in Brooklyn on an indictment charg-
ing him with having impersonated an
officer in the United States navy.
Then another $1,000 was loaded on his
bail because Washington officials
started removal proceedings to take
him to the capital to face similar
indictment. Weinberg was the man
who persuaded DR.. Adolf Lorenz that
he was just the one the surgeon need
e(' for secretary. In his time Vein
berg has fooled lot of other prom
inent people. the authorities say.
But that is another story.
The deeper troubles tonight are
those of Princess Fatima.

Scattering Attendance
to Hear Reed Rap
Four Power Treaty
Leaders R e gard
Ratification as Sure
Thing-Await Final
Vote Due March "a

Washington, March 1s.-The cam
paign of the irreconcilables against the
four-power Pacific treaty continued
without abatement in the Senate today
despite signs Of waning interest and
the disposition Of leaders to regard
ratification of the pact as a foregone
conclusion.
For more than three hours, in Sem
ate chamber which most of the time
was all but deserted. Senator Reed,
Democrat, Missouri, assailed both the
four-power and naval treaties, which
he said would fit together to put the
United States in a position of help
lessness" in the Pacific. He charged
that the facts underlying the five-tive-
three naval settlement had been mis-
represented and put into the record
figures of his own designed TO show
that superiority of speed, armament
and auxiliary craft would greatly in
crease the relative strength of the
British and Japanese navies.
The Missouri senator's address was
INTERRUPTED only a half dozen times by
senators who questioned him on minor
points of information regarding the
naval estimates he submitted, and
when he had finished the debate drift
cd to other subjects. The adminlstra-
tlbn leaders made no effort to reply
I'd the attack, maintaining that yes
terday's agreement to vote finally on
the treaty on March "a had crushed
all possibilities of an adverse vote.
SToward the end of his argument
Senator Reed trained his fire on the
apparent diminution of interest IN the
debate noting for the record that only
tSo Republican senators were present
and fayng the Republicans who had
stood with him against the Versailles
treaty but now were supporting the
four-power pact. These men, he said.
hid heard the commanding voice Of
their political party. but kept away
from the debate on the Senate floor
because they were ashamed"
In the view of senators who have
canvassed the situation carefully, the
two big issues remaining to he set
tied in the four-power treaty fight re-
volve about the foreign relations COM
mittees mo alliance" reservation and
the compromise reservation that is to
be proposed regarding participation of
outside powers in conferences over
Pacific questions. A group of Repub-
lican senator's are still said 10 be
strongly opposed to all reservations
and inclined to work against the COM
mittee proposal when the administra-
tons leaders fear its defeat plight
endangcr ratification of the treaty it
self. The conference" reservation
has not yet been offered, but an effort
Will be made to put in a form accept
otle to various senators who had OBJ
jcoted to the proposal when it WIS be-

Mr.. Feterston was in charge of
construction and operation of Muscle
