eign relations. The committee reach

A number of very lmportaut amend-
mieuta to the treaty were made Ly the
colnmittee. 7 was sullrely re
wrilten and as reported is materially
shorteued. It reads as follows:
“Tse United States while this treaty
is Lelug led may take such steps
ua lt "dest proper to preserve or
der and facilitate the sc pli :
of the purposes hereof” :
For more than n year this article has
peeu the subject of disputes In the
committee. Republicans snd Demo
erats were opposed to it, but on very
Gifferent grounds. The jafter by caus
cus action having determined to oppose
the treaty In its entirety left the Re
publicans free to agree upon some
amendment satisfactory to the latter.
Therefore In rewritting the amend.
ment the commitiee eliminated the ane
thority given to the Dominican repub-
lic to demand and receive assistance
from this government. The article now
provides that the United States may
grant upom its pwn initiative such re
Hef as It desires. -
Further amendment of this article is

Semator Spooner. Under the agiee
ment iu the committee such an amend-
ment would be accepted by the mem-
bers voting for the favorible report
and when submitted to the senate im-
mediately become a part of the treaty
as reported by the cammittes It Is
said it will follow lines similar to
amendment proposed by
Root and will uuthorise the U
States to land troops for the protec
tion of Americans engaged in the cole

to cut off all lights lu the cadet bar
racks by shutting off the gas at an In-
accessible point in the dellar
For this and the other misdemeanors
for which the class of 1808 is held re-
sponsible the order has been issued
that the entire class must de guard
duty every night uatil the June szami-
nations. The officer of the day and the
offiter of the guard are to be chosen
from the cadet capiains and first lieu-
tenants each day, and the members of
the class must do duty under them
nightly from 8 p. m. to 6 a. m. In three

the life of a soldier as exemplified at
West Polat for the next three meaths
