THE WASHINGTON LETTER.
The apeoial session of the senate
of the fifty-eighth congress tins ad
journed sine die aft-r having ratified
both the Panama and the Cuban
treaties and the president expressed
himself as satisfied with the work
of the Rpssion. Nevertheless, there
Is grave doubt in the minds of ninny
friends of both treaties as to their
future. In the case of the Cuban
treaty it has been amended in sev
eral instances and one, Bt least, of
th emeu 1 ments seriousl v joopn rd
lzes the snee.pss of the agreement
This is tlie Buoon amendment which
provides tint, the trusty shall go
into effect only vlin "approved by
the conare-is " The question i t
raised, din en exeliang' "f riMnVi
tion be nmdn when thp ratification
of the senate is of so pquivoc.al n
character and depends, for its ulti
mate settlement, on the p.tion
both houses of congress at the next
session? It is certain that there
will be no reciprocity with Culm
nntil lute in the next, session and in
the opinion of many competent
judges the house will amend the
tr'-nty and thus precipitate general
discussion anil contest, which will
mean the defeat of .be en tire project.
It is admitted that a serious mis
take bus been made with regard to
the Colombian treaty, in that Sena
tor Morgan was permitted to print
in the Congressional Record all of
Ids speeches against the canal, while
the injunction of secrecy was not
removed from any of the speeches
made by the frie. ds of the conven
tion, aside, from Senator Cullom's
brief closing argument. Moreover,
the question . is now raised as to
whether the secretary of the tren"iirv
will feel authorized to pay out funds
under the provisions of the Spnoner
act and on the contract, made with
Colombia, as there is a serious
difference lietween the provisions
of the two. Several senators, who
most vigorously maintained that
there was nothing in Mr. Morgan's
contention to this effect, now admit
that, it is an important factor, nlthn
they say that, hereafter all responsi
bility rests with the attorney general
who will have to decide this question.
The old suspicion of the sincerity of
the senate advocates of the Panama
route is again aroused on apparently
good grounds.
It. is frankly stated that the presi
dent is seriously disappointed at the
failure of the senate to confirm or
reject his nominations of William
Michael Byrne for United States
attorney for Delaware and Dr. Crum
for collector of the Port of Charles
ton, 8. C. Both of those nomina
tions were sont in during the regular
session and reported unfavorably by
the JuJiciary and commerce com
mil tees respectively, but no notion
was taken by the senate as a whole,
They were Bent in again on tha first
day of the speoial session and Mr.
Byrne's nomination was unfavorably
reported by the committee on
judiciary but the commerce com
in it tee refused to assemble to con
sider the Crum nomination. True
to bia word, the president has ap
pointed both men as recess appoint
uients but it is evident that the
senators "playea politics" and
determined to place the onus of the
appointment on Mr. Roosevelt
Taking the past session as a whole,
there is good ground for the belief
that Mr. Roosevelt was very sbab
bily treated by the leaders of his
own party. From the standpoint
of the leaders there is reason for it
IIo is the most difficult president to
use and manipulate republicans have
ever had. Cleveland was as difti
cult, but republican office seekers
expected nothing from him.
Another instance of what appears
to have been a scheme to got the
president into hot water has just
come to light. IIo was invited to
visit Chicago and make an address
with the understanding that bis
visit would be purely non-partisan.
It now transpires that, the day set
for his visit, April 2, is just five
days in aiTvanoe o! the municipal
election and the reception committee
Is made ai entirely of republicans
even the mayor of the city, who is a
democrat and a candidate for re
election, having been ignored. The
president, when informed of the
f.icts, immediately perceived that an
attempt bad been made to make
political capital out of bis visit, with
the very possible result of injuring
l.im if the democratic mayoralty
lii'iiiince were elected, and has
Very
y tj tie Illinot
senators for not informing bun with
regard to the election and keeping
faith to the reception committee,
lie ha9 further indicated to the
mayor that be hopes be will partici
pate in all ceremonies for which
preparations have been made.
The report, of the anthracite conl
strike commission has been made
public and will, in many respects,
be regarded as a signal victory for
the miners They are awarded a 10
per cent, increase in wages from
April, 1S102. to March 31, 1908 This
ipnlies to nil paid regular wages and
nine hour men are to bo paid on a 10
hour basis. Moreover, provision is
made for an increase of wages by 1
per cent for pach 5 per cent increase
in the wholesale price of coal over
1150 per ton, for pea size. All
disputes are to he settled h 7 a "joint
conciliatory commission," tooonsist
of six and to have continuous exis
tence in each district. Three mem
hors of this comm'ttoe are to be
appointed by tlieoperators and three
by a majority of the miners, so that
in those sections where the union
men are in a majority, union men
.vill be solented. When an agree
ment cannot he reached by this
evenly divided commission a seventh
shall be c.illed in and he will cast
the deciding vote Hnch check
weighers, eto , as the miners may
desire sliall be anpoiuted by them
and recognized by the operators but
shall he paid by the miners. The
average price of coal is to be decided
by a commissioner appointed by a
circuit, judge and paid by the opera
ors. All increase in the size of
miners cars shall bo accompanied
by a proportionate increase In wages.
AH awards stand nntil Marcti 31,
1908. Among the general recom
mendations, made by t he commission
are, one ntging the abolition of the
custom of employing special police
vlio, it is believed, tend to make
trouble, one urging that existing
awn against the employment of
child labor be enforced, and a Btate
ment that the commission did not
feel at liberty to recommend com
pulsory arbitration.
It was stated in these letters some
time ago tint the navy department
was so pleased with the appropria
tion for an Increased strength in the
navy that all expedition would be
used in constructing the new vessels.
The assertion has been confirmed by
the remarkable progress made.
Within three months from the
approval ol the bill, plans will have
been prepared and oontracts award
ed, thus breaking all records, and
this notwithstanding the faet that
the advertisements for bids must be
out sixty days before proposals aro
opened This applies to the five
new ships just authorized.

Minister Hear of Buddhism's Creed
The Presbyterian Ministerial As
sociation was interestingly entertain
ed Monday afternoon at the Free
Museum ol Science and Art. Thirty
third and Spruce streets, by Professor
Maxwell Sommerville, of the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania, who lectured
on Buddhism.
Professor Sommerville begun his
discourse at the entrance of the
Buddhist Temple. "It is well," he
said, "to look into many of the
religions that existed oelore Christ's
time. There is itrueh good in many
of them. In the religion Instituted
by Buddha both men and women
worship at the temples, but the men
pray harder thnu the women. Before
going In to pray to their heathen
gods they chew rice halls into lumps,
which are thrown at the guardians
stationed at the entrance of the temple.
If the missiles stick to the gods the
worshippers go Inside and supplicate
the higher gods for whatever they
need. Should the balls, not stick
they do not offer up any prayers, nor
do they enter the temple."
The ministers were then shown
through the temple.
Piofessor Sommerville dwelt at
length on the life of Buddha and his
teaching. lie also told several
nterestlng stories of his own travels
n Japan and JudtM. His trip and
experiences in the Sahara Desert were
recounted in a fascinating manner.
Tlie history of each god and the
worship he receives from the Ruddh
ists was explained In detail.
"I have been criticized in some
religious Journals because I have
given lectures in this temple on
Sunday afternoons, said Professor
Somervllle, "but many that never
enter a house of God have attended
these lectures, and profited thereby.
Many have cried at the meetings and
been converted from sin through
some remark that I have made about
some edifying religious practices of
the followers of Buddhism." Phila

An excellent cut of our chief
burgess, J. C. Chamberlain, appeared
in the Philadelphia Press Tuesday
That most excellent paper should be

informed concerning New York but
are willing to remain in considerable
ignorunce regarding our own state
affairs. There are several good Philu
delphiu papers which give Just as
much general news as tlie New York
dailies, besides containing a page
devoted especially to state news ami
politics. Kseciuliy during tlie ses
sion of the legislature is It desirable
to lie Informed and one would sup
pose that sufficient interest among
Ids constituents would centre around
the speeches of the member from

OBITUARY
Dr. Charles W. Robert Succumb to
Heart Trouble at Scranton
Our community was saddened last
week by new of the death of Dr.
W. Roberis, who pissed away at
Scrar.ton early Friday morning,
Marcti 20th. Only a short time ago
he was in town arranging to open
the bath cure, which business he
hoped to make successful. Last
season be purchased a handsome
property on Ann street and had
fitted it np for the purpose of con-
ducting a treatment similar to that
given at Nauheim in Germany.
Dr. Roberts was born about fifty.
three years ago at Florida, in Orange
county. After arriving at manhood
he became a clerk in a Philadelphia
drug house, studied medioine and
graduated at the Hahneman medical
college In that city. He practiced
some time In Washington, D. C,
and then located at Scranton, where
he built tip a large and lucrative
practice.
The sudden death of his twin
brother, Samuel, last fall was a
severe shock and one which in his
oondifioD seemed impossible for
him to overcome. For several years
he had been troubled with an affec
tion of the heart and It was for the
purpose of obtaining relief that he
took a trip to Nauheim and he then
conceived the idea of establishing
baths in this country. After look
injr around for a proper location,
Milford was so fortunate as to meet
his views as to requirements and it
was hoped that he would be spared
to inaugurate the system here and
successfully establish the bnsiness.
Dr. Roberts was a genial man and
during bis stay in town last summer
impressed the oitizens by his court
eous manner, public spirit and broad
minded bnsiness methods.
He is survived by his wife, who
was a Miss Mary Dunning of Middle-
town, N. Y. The remains were
conveyed to that city last Monday
and interred in Hillside cemetery.

Easing the Hill
Supervisor John Schrieber has
done an excellent job taking down
tne uonasliaugu bill wnioli was
about the hardest pull on the road
to Dingman's. By taking about
three feet off tho ton and grading
down to and on the bridge, the side
walls of which will be raised, an
excellent grade has been made. Fcr
this all travelers will be thankful
There are other places on that road
where with comparatively small
expense a groat gain conld be ao
complished. The day of good roids
and easy grades is surely coming
and supervisors and citizens will be
wise to heed the demand and not
postpone such work and spend
money in temporary repairs, until
the matter is taken out of their
bands by a state commission and
improvements forced which may
bear heavily on taxpayers. The fact
that school directors became too
parsimonious and attempted to pay
waes with state appropriations and
cut salaries of teachers to save
school tax until the matter became
so notorious as to coll for legislative
interference, should be a warning to
those having the care of highways
Put the taxes in good, permanent
improvements and in taking down
hills so that when the movement
for good roads comos it will have
been anticipated to a great degree
and you will not be burdened by
doing in a short time what should
have been done in the years past
while you have been wasting time
and money in makeshift methods of
working tne roads. Begin now and
save future troubles which may
come pretty thick.
