WASHINGTON, May 10 1920, RSIDENT WILSON has made a campaign issue of the Ver- gailles treaty, to stand uncompromisingly the Lodge reservations. He bas cailed upon the Democratic Party behind the treaty and to condemn “I think it imperative,” he says, “that the party should at once proclaim itself the uncompromising champion of the Nation's honor and the advacate of everything that the United States can do in the service of humanity.” ‘The President's views were expressed in answer to a telegram from G. E, Hamaker of Portland, Ore., chairman of the Multonomah County, Democratic Committee. The League of Nations, the Executive says, is the hope of the world, and adds: “Let us prove to our late associates in the war that at any rate the great majority party of the Nation, the party which expresses the true hopes and purposes of the people of the country, intends to keep faith with them in peace as well as war. “The Democratic Party has now a great opportunity, to which it must measure up. The honor of the Nation is in its hands.” Senator Lodge, Republican leader in the fight, has accepted the President's challenge, and the issué is declared to be clearly drawn. It is expected here that with Bryan insisting upon the reservations the treaty issue will bring about a sharp fight in the convention at San Francisco. WASON'S LETTER ON TREATY DEES N.Y.

He fenwed that if he allowed | Himself to be crawn into a quarrel} about reservations the issue would be | befogged by quibbles over phrase- olo He considered that Article ‘Ten was the heart of the whole busi- ness, and that the Lodge reservation nullified that article Nevertheless, it is a watter of doubt whether the President will ask the Democratic National Cenvention at San Francisco to stand for an yn- qualified covenant, Pressure will bo brought to bear upon him to consent to a plank in the platform which will indorse the programme tentatively agreed upon in (he bi-partisan con- ferences which were broken up when Senator Johnson and Senator Borab threatened to bolt the party if Senator Lodge compromised on Article Ten. REPUBLICANS PUZZLED OVER ‘TREATY PLANK IN PLATFORM. With the Hirant Johnson movement growing stronger ever day the Re- publicans have been in a quandary about the treaty plank in their plat- form, They cannot consistently in- dorse the California Senator's po tion and at the same time approve of the Lodge reservations, 1 Mr. Wilson makes it a bit the Republicans by his ment against the Lodge r Had he walted until the Republican Convention was over, he might have found the Republicans indorsing the dohngon viewpoint and retreating from the leadership of Senator Lodge in erder to face the President in the campaign with a solid Republican op- position. The Ropublican leaders will be quick to seize upon the Lodge res érvations as the basis of their cam- the hope that sion of Senator Knox, and point out that he doesn't want the treaty even with those reservations.

But before the San Francisco Con- vention comes around there will be another pronouncement from Mr. Wilson. ‘The letter to the Oregon Democrats is not the last word, nor the kind of plank the Democrats will Th will take their stand for some reservations, notably those propoged by Senator Hitchcock and Agreed upon by & majority of the Democrats and endorsed by Mr, Wil- On the face of it, the | letter to the Oregon Democrats Icoks like @ reversal by Mr. Wilson, a re- turn to his original position of un- compromising opposition . to any change in the treaty or league Eventually he will be ‘found’ support- ing reservations “that do not destroy the treaty” and condemning the Lodge reservations on the ground that they are destructive. There is a noticeable renewal of confidence and hope in White House Johnson gains ground, Senator Knox's speech reaily helped to bring out the letter to the Oregon Democrats. SINN FEIN BURN BARRACKS.

Only two persons had knowledge of the $500 on the merchant, so far as is known. , They were Miss Helen Bg- sling, his cashief, and Frank Metg- Jer, his chauffeur, Both went to the First National Bank on Saturday morning to draw the payroll for the factory hands and an additional $500 for Mr. Ruckert. Four shots in all were fired in the dining, room where the struggle took place. ‘The two bullets were found in the right and left side of the mer- chant's abdomen and two slugs were taken from ‘the walls of the dining room, They fitted the chamber of a 38-calibre revolver picked up in the garden of August Hinchler at Ninth Street and Castle Polnt Terrace, A mask which had fallen from the assassin’s face was found in the din- ing room, It had been made from a man's silk and lisle sock. Mr, Ruck- ert remembered the mask but did not recall that it had fallen from his assailant's face. When Police In- spector Kiely sought to talk to Mr. Ruckert at St. Mary's ‘Hospital he said he knew nothing of the man who attacked him and wanted to talk with his partner, Hubert Richter, Mr. Ruckert came to this country seven yeats ago from Karlsruhe, Ger; may, and took out his first papers.

Mr. Ruckert’s own story, as told to Charles McLaughlin, who lives in the house and who was the first to reach im, reeounted how he reached hi ‘epartmiept, which is on the fifth floo: of “the @partment house, about 1.20 o'clock, ) He walked down tho little hallway and turhed on the water in his bath- tub. ‘Then he went into his own room, took off his coat and vest, passed through the dining room and’ into his brary, where he selected two books and returned to the dining room to read while the water, which runs slowly, was filling the ‘tub. As he re-entered the dining room he was confronted by a masked’ man, holding @ revolver in each hand. Dropping his books he started for the intruder who fired a shot, the bullet going wild and sinking {nto the wall osite, Mr, Ruckert then grappled sath the assailant and both went to the floor. Rueckert was athletic-and soon had the other under ji!in It that the maskod a: i shots, both of which entered the mer- chant’s abdomen. He relaxed his grip and the other rose and hurried down the hallway, was quickly on his feet and in pur- suit. Another shot from the masked man rung out and Mr. Ruckert pur- sued him down the five flights of stairs and to the front dvor, where he fell, exhausted from loss of dlood. His galls for help brought no re- sponse, although other tenants on the lower floors heard the sound of souf- filing. Mr. McLaughlin was first to reach him and iramediately notified the police, whe had the dying man removed to St. Mary’s Hospi! Harry Varath, a brother of Ruck- ert's flancee, gave of his blood, as did A. F. Mischee, a friend, in an effort to save the life of the merchant, but he lingered only a few hours more in consequence of the two transfusion operations. ‘He was to have been married to Mis# ‘Varath in August. ‘The murderer got into the house either through the cellar or by ringing the bell of one of the other tenants. He made his way to the root and low- ered himself by means of a knotted clothesline to the ledge of the kitchen window. The window was open and through it he let himself in.
