"When the Sen ate adjourned this evening friends of the peace treaty knew they ha4 lost two men . whom they .believed might vote for ratification, and they, received an intimation that another rwould prob ably be "with them. The two against the treaty are Money, of Mississippi, who spoke against it today, and Turpie, of Indiana. The third Senator is Heit feld, of Idaho. Fifty-eight: certain votes are counted now for ratifteationi, and as but two more are needed it is expected they will be secured before the vote is taken. . - A member of the Foreign Relations Committee said tonight that the Sulli van resolution had been determined upon as the one which, will b adopted, and it would not be surprising, he said, if a vtjte were taken on the resoluution tomorrow. n The treaty's opponents were in good humor this afternoon, Mr. Pettigrew insisted that the treaty was defeated. He claims that thirty-four will -vote against the treaty.. . The time ot the executive session this afternoon was consumed almost entire ly by Gray's argument for the treaty and Money against it. Mr. Gray said he went to Pari opposed to taking the Philippines, hut was compelled by the logic of events to change his mind. Mr. Money made a long argument against the power, of the United States under the constitution to acquire territory in tended, for colonies. He wanted the army and navy withdrawn from Manila.
