"The terms of the treaty clearly

Senator Kohlnson said it appeareil
well understood that ending of tlje
Anglo-Japanese alliance "actually"
was on the conference program. Mr.
I'nderwood replied that this was not
quite true, but that before the con
ference, American newspapers gen

America should enter any agreement
to Scrap or reduce its navy, the al
liance should he cancelled.

Pursuing his contention that the
treaty is regarded an an alllanco by
th<> other parties to it. Senator Rob
inson read from a speech said to
have been made by Karl tirey, declar
ing that the A nglo-Japanese alliance
had been "m?rgeil" Into the four
power arrangement. The Arkansas
Senator also read a statement he said
had been made by Prince Tokugliwa
just after his return to Japan, saying
that "Japan has not lost her oltl ally,
but has gained new ones through the
four-power treaty." Taken in con
nection with the prince's more recent
Htateno nt. Senator Robinson said, the
opinion previously expressed showed
a ureal facility to change positions.
"There Is only one man." continued
the Arkansas Senator." to whom I
concede ?< urea tor ability to speedily
readjust his Interpretation to meet
the t xlgencies of the situation, and
that Is the great intcllccual genius

Senator Itobinson had forgotten ? the
statement of 19l<*. that 'he kept us
out of war." "

And Mr. Itobinson retorted that
Woodrow Wilson's place in history
hail ben fixed beyond the power of
the Senate or any Senator to mate
rially alter it. Kfforts h:id
made, he added, to dray the former
President's name into the four-pow
er treaty light. but his enemies were
welcome in all the pride they could
g< t out of attaekiag him.
, Itecause of a desire by many Sen
ators to complete work on an appro
priation bill, administration loaders
did not carry out their purpose to
force a vote today on the first of the
proposed reservations and the treaty
was laid temporarily aside without
<i lion. Senator l.oilge. .if M.i s ?ach u -
setts. the Republican leader, an
nounced. however, that on Monday
he would attempt to secure an agree
ment for a time for votlnif. and
should he fall, would hold the Senate
to "long sessions" until the debate
had worn itself out.
Although they cared to make 110
numerical estimates, the Republican
and Democratic lloor leaders both re
mained confident tonight that no
reservations except that drawn In
the Foreign Relations ('ominltte.
wotilil be adopted, and th.it the tr. itv
would have a safe majority on the
ratification roll call. They declared
that more than the necessary two
thirds had pledged themselves to cup

llngbeN DIsciisnch Treaty.
Secretary Hughes, in his letter to
day to Senator I'ndcrwood. took oc
casion to characterize intimations
that the American delegates w.-re In
duced to accept some plan cunningly
contrived by others opposed to
American interests as a "very poor
find erroneous conception of the work
In connection with the conference."
The secretary added that the amen
ities of Internal louul intercourse pre
cluded revealing the informal and
contiilcntial suggestions and conver
sations incident to the negotiations,
but he assured the Senate that a full
| disclosure of everything said or done
> w ould i eveal nothing derogatory to
I ilte part taken by the American dcle
? nates, lie asserted li wquld show 110
I consiiU-ration or acceptance of any
position not entirely consistent with
the traditional policies of the Amerl
j can government.
The four-power pact itself requires
j no commentary, t lie secretary said,
adding that no ingenuity in argu
ment or hostile criticism can add to
| it. or make its engagements greater
j than "Its equivocal language sets
? forth. I here (ire no ye. i-,*t notes or
! understandings, he asserted.
Discussing the genesis of Ilir
treaty, which hu? been th? subject of
questions In the Sviiiito (rum Its up
poncnta, Mr. Hughes said that, while
tli? question of authorship la unirn
vortbiit, "ufter assent had been given
by Great Urltuln und Japan, that
Kranrc should bo a party, he himself
prepared a draft of the treaty" buscu
upon the various suggestions which
hud been exchanged between the dele
gate*.
Kotlrely Without .Mystery.
| "There Is not the slightest mystery
about the treaty or basis of suspi
cion regarding It," the secretary as
serted. "It Is a straightforward doc
ument, which attains ono of the most
important objects the American gov
ernment Inn' had in view, and of the
highest Importance to the mainten
ance of friendly relations in the Kar
ICast upon a sound basis."
Failure of the Senate to ratify the
treaty. Mr. Hughes declared, "would
be nothing short of a national ca
lami t >*."
The text of Secretary Hughes' let
ter follows:
"My I tear Senator: I under"'land
that in the course of debate in the
Senate upon the four-power treaty
questions have been raised with re -
sped to lis authorship. It seems to
be implied that in some way the
American delegates have been im
posed upon or that they were In
duced to accept some plan cunning
ly contrived by others opposed to
American interests. Apart from the re
flection upon the competency of the
American delegates, sin li Intimations

^ be assured that a full disclosure of
