TREATY

and France Satisfied
What Cullom Says.
' (United Pma Ltawd Wlrs.l r .
: Washington, Nov. 28. -While Eng
land, Russia and Franca are expressing
thelf satisfaction with v.)b treaty"
which is salff to Have been drawn up be
tween . the United States and Japan,
leading senators are laying their plans
to ask the state department to explain
Just what it has done In apparently dis
regarding the nation's- traditional pol
icy of avoiding-foreign alliances and Ig
noring the senate's constitutional right
to ratify.' anything which; actually
amounts to a treaty between the United
States and another power.-
There Is some belief In diplomatic cir
cles here .that -the present administra
tion has gone a step beyond Its rights,
luid it is to settle this important point
that the state department will ba asked
to tell the senate what it has done.
- 6enator Cullora, chairman of the sen
ate committee on foreign relations, said
today that in the absence of any au
thoritative text of the alleged agreement
" with Japan, it would be Impossible to
say Just what the senate would probably
do. If - the document was -merely "a
declaration of principles" and contained
nothing binding on either country, he
saw little reason to find fault with the
state department; on the other hand, he
felt that -such a document, Exchanged
between the two powers, would have a
salutary effect in stopping - war talk
among Jingoes. '
It is reported that the five articles
of the alleged treaty, purporting to have
beei drawn up by Secretary Root and
Baron Takahlra, are the fruit of nego
' tlattons " undertaken bv President-elect
Tan when he was in Japan a year ago.
If this was the case, leading - senators
say, it is more than ever an imperative
matter that the explanation of the nego
tiations with Japan ba made before
Taft's inauguration.
That the "treaty" is really a firm al
; Dance is the view taken of the five ar
ticles by the Iondon papers, and Amer
ica Is praised for having solved the far
eastern question so that hostilities in
the Pacific have now been postponed in
definitely. Some basis for this theory
is found in" the statement that the
agreement la said to contain provisions
that the territorial possessions in the Pa
cific shall be mutually respected and
that' the "open door" policy shall be
maintained. This, it is argued, would
.ave been superflous unless the gov
ernments had intended to reach "more
- than a general understanding" in regard
to their respective relations..

Colonel Green, ex-Copper King.
' Colonel Greene, ; popularly known as
Bill" .Greene, the -copper king of the
world, is today living tha life of a re
cluse, broken hi' body, spirit and for
tune. . .... - . , '
When Colonel Greene entered Wall
street 10 years ago, he was a big, bluff
western cow boy-miner, who had made
his stake in the mushroom growth of a
rich property in the mountains of Old
Mexico and whose dream was that he
would soon become one of the world's
copper kings; This was 10 years ago.
Five years later ;,.he was at tha height
of his power and controlled companies
whose total capitalisation . represented
nearly $100,000,000. This Included such
well known copper companies at the
Greene Consolidated : Copper company,
the Oreen -- Gold-Silver company. the
Greene Consolidated Gold company, Ca
nanea Cattle and Realty company, and
a half dosen others equally well known.
He lived in luxury, traveled in his pri
vate ar. had elaborate offices on Wall
etreeet and was tha biggest man at
mat time in the copper xieia.
Colonel Greene was a man of luck.
was an extensive a-ambler. thou era us
ually a lucky one, and was tha sort
of i man who would match you for
$lou,ooo or may zo,oo at a time on
a roulette wheel. He relied on luck
and bluff In his business enterprises
and these succeeded admirably for many
years. But when ne ran into xnomas
Lawson. and the Standard Oil crowd
he wan up against whole-headed busi
ness men who sought to gain control
of the mines he then dominated.
His downfall is pathetic and yet typ
ical of many a Wall street speculator.
The crowd hammered away at Colonel
Greene until they forced his stock down
and made him sell. The mines are un
doubtedly . good , today, but Colonel
Greene, the promoter, the man of luck,
and the big bluffer, Is no longer in
evidence. ,

GREAT WEALTH A CURSE
Dr. Leas Comments on Social Con

- That tramps, saloons and poor men's
clubs In this country are on the ln-J
crease and that the unlimited wealth
of the rich of the United States Is un
equally divided, with prevailing die
tress among the lower . classes, was
asserted by the Rev. J. Allen leaa fh
his sormon at the English Luther n
church last, night The wealth of this
country in 1820 was less than SZ.000,000,
he said. In less time than half a
centur the nation's wealth grew -from
17,000.000 to 1107,000,000 a 16 fold m

Commenting on social conditions re

PAIR DEALINGS WIN
Dr. Dyott Says the Man Who Does
Right Comes Out Victor.
Religion find business should not be
antagonistic, for religion Is needed in
business." This was the declaration of
Rev. Luther R. Dyott in his sermon at
the First Congregational church last
night on the subject, "Will Business
and Religion Mix?" He said that a keen
eyed public keeps watch on the busi
ness man and will drive him out in the
end unless he is fair and square.
"Some people say that religion and
business are diametrically opposed to
each other, because religion Is mission
ary in spirit and business is mercenary,"
said Dr. Dyott. The speaker answered
this argument, saying in part:
"But let us remember that 96 of those
who enter-business fall. What .then?
Shall we conclude that they fail because
they, are not religious? No. Some of
those who fall profess and call them
selves reljgloua. Their religious pro
fession does not bring them success.
There may be many reasons why they
fall. Let it be remembered, however,
that all other things considered being
equal, the man who does right in busi
ness is Infinitely preferable, even upon
a commercial basis, to the -one who does
wrong, even though the one who does
right may make no open profession of
religion so far as Identification with
some church is concerned. Every bus
iness man needs the help of religion in
business. x
: "The converse of the proposition Is
true. - If business needs religion, none
the less does -religion need ' business.
Churches should be 'conducted upon -a
business basts. Their financial affairs
should be managed by business men of
the right sort. A slip-shod manner in
handling the finances of a church will
bring reproach upon religion."
