DISAPPOINTED.
WILSON AND THE TREATY. PICTURE OF PRESIDENT TO-DAY. By Telegraph,—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received April 19, 7.40 p.m. New York, April 18. Senator G, M. Hitchcock (leader of the Democrats in ine Senate), in a spegch at Omaha to-day, said President Wilson was an invalid, and he was in broken health, depressed in spirit, and bitterly disappointed at tho failure of the Senate to ratify the Treaty. He has known nothing but weakness, weariness, and pain since his breakdown last September. President Wilson, of course, made mistakes. He made a mistake when he proposed to negotiate the Treaty without taking a few leaders of the' Senate into his confidence. ' The ratification of the Treaty would have been easy had lie done this, but he lacked tact and foresight- He unwisely assumed that if he performed his duty the Senate would do its duty and consent to the ratification of the Treaty.—Aus-N,Z. Cable Assn.
