Wadhams in the Court of General Sessions when he dismissed, on appeal, the complaint against Hyman Goldstein and forty others for disorderly conduct, ‘The défendants were in a restau~ rant at No, 14 St. Mark's Plate on the night of July 29, chatting, smok- ing and playing cards. Detective Thomas Gray end four plainclothes men burst in on the pinocle players and arrested them. Detective Gray's testimony was that he heard one man shout to his partner after he had melded 350, "Good boy, could do it.” Judge Wadhams quoted the records of the police court, saying that when the proprietor declared that the men were playing cards for fun, just as they did in any club, Magistrate Sweetser told him that he didn't ex- pect him to believe that, aud that there was a difference between local conditions and those of Fifth Avenue, “This case,” said Judge Wadhama, “has all the earmarks of « complaint directed to be made by someone, Whether it was in behalf of those yonsitive in the cause of maintaining law and order, or whether in behalf of those intent upon filling their own coffers at the expense of others, com- monly known as graft, does not ap- pear. “It does, however, appear that the records show no evidence to sustain this conviction, “Magistrate Sweetser should be sev- erely reprimanded for finding such a verdict, The first duty of an admin- istrator of the law is to observe the law.

Stories Circulated by Foes of Treaty That It Has Been Abandoned Are Denied. WASHINGTON, Aug. dent Wilson's proposed tour was again prominent to-day in treaty discussions as a result of develop- ments since Tuesday when the Prebident met the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Reports coming mostly from the Capitor thagpthe President's trip had been abandoned are denied at the White House, although it is admitted that plans are still indefinite. Decision of the Senate Foreign Re- lations Committee to lengthen hear- ings on the treaty by granting a hearing to Greek, Irish and Egyptian und mid-European representatives threatened to-day to renew the agi- tation for taking the treaty out of the committee's hands. A majority of the committee took the position that the subject peoples who did not get “satisfaction” at Paris should be allowed to air their grievances. Democratic members objécted on the ground that additional hearings would needlessly delay the reporting of the treaty; that all those asking hearings, except the Egyptians, got some sort of hearing in Paris and that they have all, without exception, made clear the nature of their griev- ances to the Senate and the country through advertisements and other forms of publicity. Democratic Senators to-day pointed out that the Senate is powerless to help the nations or subject peoples who claim they were unjustly treated. Indications are that If the committee keeps the treaty much after Sept. 1, an effort will be made to force its hand, Senator Hitchcock, Administration leader, was preparing to-day to de- liver his speech against textual amendments, but may not be able te get the floor, At @ conference yesterday in Sena- for Knox's office, the extreme rad- icals who want the treaty killed and some of those who will be satisfied with strong reservations, discussed their plans, Senator Reed, Democrat, attended the conference, which in- cluded Senators Knox, Lodge, Bran- degee, Johnson of California, Borah, Fall and Moses.
