PEACE MEASURE TO
BE UP AGAIN TODAY
Knox
to Speak, Then Let
Resolution Rest.
WILSON VIEW UNCHANGED
Separate Treaty Considered "Stain
on Ration's Honor" Attitude
of Administration.
WASHINGTON, May 4. The sen
ate -will begin debate tomorrow on
the Knox peace resolution with the
general expectation of its adoption
and certain veto by the president.
Republican leaders supporting and
democrats opposing the resolution In
troduced by Senator Knox as a sub
stitute for the nouse measure said a
vote probably would be reached with
in two weeks, or Just before the con
templated recess for the political con
ventions. There did not seem to be much
doubt among members as to Its pas
sage, but leaders of both parties said
they anticipated that with his veto
message President Wilson probably
would return the treaty of Versailles
to the senate.
Knox to Deliver Speech.
Senator Knox will call up his reso
lution tomorrow and deliver a pre
pared speech, after which, according
to present plans, it will lie over for
a few days unless senators desire to
discuss it at odd times.
Senator Hitchcock, ranking minor
Uy member of the foreign relations
committee, announced after a aemo
r.ratie conference today that no at
tempt would be made to delay action
on the measure by a filibuster. The
democrats of the committee conferred
with Secretary Colby and Senator
Underwood, minority leader, and It
was said that Mr. Colby agreed with
the democratic plan of opposition to
the Knox resolution. Besides point
ing out what he regarded as Its con
stitutional objections, Mr. Colby is
said to have stated it was likely to
draw criticism from America's as
sociates In the war.
Senators said that they gathered
that Mr. Colby was not now informed
as to the president's plan for future
action regarding the treaty.
The question of a conference of all
democratic senators on the peace
resolution also was discussed at to
day's meeting but no decision was
reached.
Republican leaders said It was their
purpose to dispose of the pending dye
tariff and other urgent legislative al-
i" fairs before giving continuous con
sideration.
Action Would Be "Stain."
In outlining the belief that the
Knox peace resolution is certain to be
vetoed if adopted by congress admin'
istration officials recalled the presl'
dent's letter to Senator Fall last sum
mer declaring that to make a seper
ate peace would be a stain on the
nation's honor. They said they knew
of no reason to believe that the chief
executive had changed his mind.

had a long talk with Secretary Tu
multy. Both declined to reveal de
tails of their discussion.

NEW YORK. May 4. (Special.)
Mrs. Edith Sellinger of No, I22 Vyse
avenue, Bronx, pluckily struggled for
15 minutes tonight on the roof of her
home with a burglar and, although
many times he forced her to the edge
of the roof, she held on and had best
ed him when detectives arrived. The
struggle was witnessed by nearly 500
persons.
Mrs. Sellinger told the police that
when she was about to enter her
apartment on the second floor she
heard a grating sound and then saw
a man attempting to jimmy open the
door of a neighbor's apartment.
"What are you doingT" Mrs. Sel
linger asked.
The man looked up and said, "That's
none of your damned business."
When she started toward him, Mrs.
Sellinger said, the man ran up three
flights of stairs to the roof, she fol
lowing closely. The man grabbed hold
of her shoulders and a struggle De

Seeing the burglar was forcing her
to the edge of the roof, Mrs. Sellinger
screamed, . attracting persons in the
street. A. crowd gathered and when
again Mrs Sellinger and her opponent
reached the edge of the roof a call
was sent for the police.
Three detectives of the Simpson
street station were sent- in an auto
mobile and a record dash to the roof
was made. When they reached it they
found ..Mrs. . Sellinger, gasping for
breath, but still holding onto the in
truder.
A, blow in the face by a detective
sent the man sprawling. He was tak
en to . the Simpson-street station
where he said he was John Fabex of
126 West One Hundred and Twenty-
third street and, according to the po
lice, admitted he had served a term
in Elmira.
Neighbors Cheer Heroine.
The detectives went to the West
One Hundred and Twenty-third-street
address, and in a room occupied by
Fabor found two big suitcases in
which were clothing, furs and mono
grammed silverware. Mrs. Sellinger
was complimented by the detectives
and told that her bravery had resulted
a "splendid catch."
When Mrs. Sellinger appeared at
home after hervisit to the police sta
tion with the. detectives, she was
cheered for many minutes by her
neighbors.
Mrs. Sellinger is the wife of a fire

proposed by City Commissioner Bar
bur.
Yesterday Mr. Barbur requested
Fred German, president of the Port
land Realty Board to appoint a com
mlttee for the purpose of discussing
the proposed plan prior to it , presen
tatlon to the city council.
The first step which Mr. Barbu
proposes is to amend - the building
code so as to make it unnecessary fo
persons to obtain special approval
from the city council for a shack
building in certain well defined dis
tricts. He will seek the co-operation
of owners of property and the real
estate men in listing at low figures
unimproved lots which will be avail
able for such temporary dwellings
and may be bought on a monthly pay
ment plan.
If the amendment is made to pro
vide for the temporary shacks. It is
probable that a time limit of five
years will be attached, at -the end of
which time standard plumbing,
standard chimney as wall as standard
timber framing must be provided for
all shacks.
Finding- ' Is That Accident Could
Easily Have Been Avoided
by Competent Driverl
Blame for the death of A. R. Blaney,
who was killed Monday while board
Ing a street car at Grand and Haw
thorne avenues, was last night fixed
on A. R. Hudwell of Salem, whose
automobile struck Mr. Blaney, only In
so far as Hudwell was a new and in
experienced driver. The jurors found
that the accident could easily have
been avoided had A. R. Hudwell been
a competent automobile driver."
There was no further finding or
recommendation as to Mr. Hudwell
but the jurors exonerated the street
car employes from any blame for the
fatality. Several witnesses testified
at the hearing, held before County
Coroner Smith, among them L. D.
Coulter, D. J. Cole. C. C. Hurley, Ros-
coe L. Cunningham and Thomas W,
Craig.
All but Cole testified that the driver
had been going at not more than
six miles an hour. Hudwell explained
that he did not see Mr. Blaney un
til almost on top of him, as he was
dragging from the rear steps of a
Bridge-Transfer car and that he could
not veer out around the street car
on- account of other traffic in the
street.
Witnesses agreed that Mr. Blaney.
who was 79 years old, had not run
after the car. until it started " and
that the motorman could not stop
any quicker . than he had after the
emergency signal was given. The
auto apparently struck him instead of
the street car itself, as the old man
was being kept from falling otf the
step . by Cole and Conductor Craig,
each of whom had grabbed him.
Mr. Hudwell is to appear in police
court this morning to have a hear
ing on a charge of violating a traffic
ordinance. I-e Is under S10C0 bond in
this case.
