Colombian Treaty Taken XT p. Just before the president's arrival the committee had finished its prelimi nary reading of the Versailles treaty and had laid it temporarily aside for consideration tomorrow of the long delayed treaty with Colombia.

Mr. Vi!son also discussed other fea tures of the treaty situation during his visit to the capitol, and intimated that his speaking trip might not be tin as soon as had been expected.

There are two mills at Coos Bay, the smaller one now being oper ated, but the larger is shut down and rusting. The property has been fore- osed and in the hands of receivers. and ordered sold December 1, 1519. There is a year for redemption. Mr. Smith desires a lease on the large mill up to the period of redemption and he offers as compensation for the lease the cost of operation plus 25 per cent. The court was informed that material can be produced and delivered at Marshfield for $12 a thousand feet. The market price of lumber is now much higher than that and is still mounting, the future of the lumber business being bright. The $12 a thousand cost in cludes extensions necessary for the railroad to Powers to tap new timber and it also includes the top price for labor. J. H. Powers, who has spent a lifetime in logging and the railroad end of the lumber business, was on the wit ness stand yesterday afternoon and told in detail the items taken into consideration in making up the cost of $12 per thousand at Marshfield.

Witnesses will bo on the stand today. ST. LOUIS. July 28. Thousands of persons attended a- mass meeting here tonight at which Senators James A. Reed of Missouri, and Medill McCor mick of Illinois denounced the league of nations and opposed ratification of the peace treaty in it3 present form. Senator Iteed characterized the Shan tung agreement a the "rape of China." "By giving Japan a clear title to 20,000.000 Coreans and by giving her dominiion over Shantung with 36.000, 0f"0 Chinamen, we have thus made this tiger of the Orient so slimy and terri ble that the strongest nations of the world may have cause to tremble when it shall show its vicious teeth," he de clared. Lracue Scheme to Rob I'nitrd Statu "The covenant will permit foreign nations to interfere with America's do mestic affairs and force undesirable immigration on this country." accord ing to Senator McCormick, who declared the league was a scheme of European countries to rob the United States of the right to regulate her protective tanrr. senator Reed asserted the reserva tion guaranteeing the Monroe doctrine was ineffectual, declared the promise for self-determination for all peoples was redeemed by the refusal to give even the privilege of a hearing to ad vocates of Irish freedom, and declared the covenant set up a "league of power" backed by armies and navies. "England" the Missouri senator said, 'becomes under the treaty the mistress of Africa and has gained other enor mous advantages and possessions. The moment the United States signs article X of the covenant we agreed with our army and navy to protect Oreat Britain and her mighty possessions." Former President Taft, Senator Reed asserted, now admits that neither the language of articles IV, X nor XV ex clude England from "packing the coun cil with her colonies." Only Promise la for Fight." The only promise of the covenant in the opinion of Senator McCormick is that it will send American boys to fight in lands of which they have never heard and before cities "the names of which schoolboys learn only to forget." "The Japanese have insisted on their right to emigrate and if we exclude them we shall be liable to boycott or coercion by arms under article IV of the covenant, the Illinois senator declared. "In event Corea decides to war on Japan for the .atrocious ravages she has committed on her inhabitants, and if China Joins Corea for the theft of Shantung, the burial place of her heroes and the first hone of her civilization, we would be forced to send troops to assist Japan crush those two unoffend ing nations.

The body was left untouched until Coroner Wilson and Sheriff Gage ar rived. Other than the foot-prints no clews have as yet been found.
