STKPH EXSOX AKocUted Press Staff Wrtter--'' ..WASHINGTON, Jan. 2. (AP) -'The senate is coins to consider ratification of the Kellogg treaty pledging the xjations of tbe world against war before starting work on the bill to Increase the navy by 15eruisers. - -v In andarsUnaing, giving-j the peace treaty priority was reached today by senators interested in the two propositions which come before the senate tomorrow on an equal footing. " Assured of an abundance of strength for the treaty. Chairman Borah 1 of the foreign relations committee laid his carda on the table today before Chairman Hale of the naval committee, the spon sor of the nary bill. ' Senator Hale later announced ' hef would speak tomorrow on the naval bill when it automatically comes before the senate, and Sen-, atofBorah. who is fathering the; treaty, said he would call up the pact and keep it constantly before the senate and to that end the un derstanding was reached. Previously senate leaders had ocen given to understand by op ponents of the navy&lll that if the ftreaty were voted upon first no fil ibuster would be waged against the the naval measure. Senator Curtis of Kansas, the republican 1c ader. has been active in working out the program for consideration -of the two propositions. The conference of Borah and ftale. therefore, is believed to have dissipated another row in the sen ate between the forces seeking to give one proposal priority over the other. : Stubborn fights are in prospect 1 against both the treaty and th erniser measure but with final Totes apparently assured on each, no. filibuster Is expected against either. Those fighting the treaty are- among the hearty supporter-, of the naval bill while the group of republican Independents who are opposing the naval bill are "rtnong those endorsing the peace aet. President Coelldge wantt both. 4 JIES LISLE DIES 1 , (Continued from Page 1.) .Ordained a minister and began graveling a 500 mile circuit once a month as circuit rider in west- Iowa, carrying the gospel mes age on horseback from town to town at a stipend of $104 a year yHe has; been active in Methodist york, the 9 years since: He was WEDNESDAr NIBH - 9 memoer. oi tne Oregon con , seren ee. f Shortly after he entered th JClvil war. serving In the 3rd Iowa battery, light artillerv. as volua eer chaplain.

FIRE INVESTIGATED DY STATE DEPUTY (Continued from Page 1.) sorority at Monmouth, told news paper. men of her experience in the tragedy. "It was terrible," she related "The fire was raging. There were screams and then I head the crash. ing of glass. I will never forget the criesof the poor girls and the sight of the spreading flames." Other girls on the second floor of the house were Myrthena Mar. tin, 17, Madras; Alice Olson, 19. Gateway; Ruth Deschazer, 17. Gateway: Lena Gee, 19, Sweet Home, and Veda Johnson, 17, of Clatskanie. These eirls said they heard Mrs. Mack cray "fire", and they ran downstairs and escaped un hurt. The girls who escaped from the second floor said that while the fire was spreading rapidly the stairway was not blocked by the flames. i C. W. Henkle, coroner of Polk ?ounty, announced tonight that lie would hold no inquest. "From my investigation I con sider the tragedy purely acciden al." Henkle said. He said he had found no indications that the win dows or screens of the house had been equipped with unusual fas tenings which could in any way hinder escape. H. W. Morlan. mayor of Mon mouth, said that he considered the fire equipment here adequate in comparison to that In other cities of Monmouth's size, but in view of this tragedy, he could see the advisability of obtaining a small pumper and a chemical outfit. The city has about 1500 feet of hose on two cars and hydrants placed according to standard re. quirement8. The firemen reached the blaze two minutes after the alarm was turned in. but the fire had reached such proportions that nothing could be done to save the hnildine or the three girls who were trapped within. Neighbors' homes were thrown nnen to shelter the survivors of the tragedy. Mrs. Alice Pember, Mrs. A. B. Morlan. Mrs. A. C. Stransbrough and Mrs. E. Barnes each took charge of some of the homeless eirls. Those who were on the first floor included Beulah Thomas. Portland; Wilma Baker, Manning; Gladys McCumsey, Port land; Irene Stevens. Laurel; L. Elizabeth Rybnick, Gres- ham; Bessie Webb, The Dalles; Bessie Ennes, Portland; Dorothy Wallace. Mist.
