It was ratified over extreme opposition; was termed by Democrat- Republicans ‘“‘complete surrender to England,” and by T.ord Sheffield of England on the other hand “that most impolitic treaty of 1794, when Lord Grenville was so perfectly duped by Jay.” George Russian Sltuatmn Is Discussed by Hoover Washington, May 17—The Russian situation was discussed yesterday at state department at a conférence in which Secretary Hughes, Secretary Hoover and former Governor Good- rich of Indiana, official with the American relief administration, par- ticipated.
