Many Knotty I'rohleiuK
The Senate's failure* to act left on
the hands of the Administration a big
collection of knotty problems, chief
among which is the question of prop
erty rights in the German ships and
other property of enemy aliens seized
by -the Government in this country.
The State Department experts say
there is no legal snnction for reten
tion of this property unless the Treaty
which contains u provision legalizing
it. 1B ratified.
To Declare Peace
; As a corollary to this problem,
stands the question of what is to be
come of the vast American interests
in Germany especially if the technical
state of war is to continue and no
American consuls or diplomatic rep
resentatives are to be sent to take up'
the subject directly.
In these property questions Is un- J
derstood to lie one of the chief ob- i
Jections of the administration to the!
plan of Republican leaders to declare
the state of war ended by a resolu- I
tion of Congress. Without the Treaty
provisions officials say, a state of;
peace would leave this country in an
awkward position when it canv to ;
establish its title to the German ships [
and the other German interests taken i
over and in many cases liquidated by j
the alien enemy property custodian, i
There is evidence, however, that the
Republican leaders in Congress, anx- ;
lous to get the country to an actual i
peace basis so that the many wartime |
legislative provisions may be erased !
and a more normal legal foundation I
placed under the country's trade, are ,
going ahead with their plan of de-1
claring peace by resolution as soon I
as the new congress meets.
Democratic leaders suggested that i
the President during the recess i
might see fit to feel out the other 1
powers as to their attitude on rcser- 1
vations with a view of bringing the
Treaty to some sort of ratification at ■

May Declare War Ended
Should the President fail to re
submit the pact promptly when
: Congress reassembles It was believed
the Republican leaders would with
l out delay take up Senator Lodge's
resolution, introduced last night
after the Treaty had failed of rati
i lication, proposing that Congress
• declare the war with Germany at an
• end. The resolution would require
concurrence by the House. On 'his
I question there also is a division of
I opinion, Democratic leaders holding
that such a resolution would ha\e
to bo approved by the President to
become effective and Republicans
holding that Presidential approval
would not be necessary.
Decision of the Senate 1 ist night
to lay aside the Treaty came alter
| two attempts to ratify !t. with the
Foreign Relations Committee's reser
vations attached and one attempt to
adopt it without reservations of any
sort, had failed. The first vote on
the Treaty with reservations at
tached showed 89 for and 55 against.
'The second, which came several
] hours later, showed 4 V for and 51
i against. The vote on straight rati
| fication recorded only 38 for and 53
I against.
Three Votes Taken
I Two of the three ratification \ oles
! were taken on the resolution draft
ed by the Republican majority, con
taining reservations which President
| Wilson had told Democratic sena
j tors in a letter earlier in the day j
' would mean nullification of the
I Treaty. On each of the votes most I
) of the Democratic supporters of the I
| Treaty voted against ratification.
1 The first vote on this resolu- !
| tion stood 39 for to 55 against, i
! On the second vote taken after sev-
I eral hours of parliamentary wrang
j ling in which the Democrats made
j vain efforts to win over some of the
I Republican group of mild reserva-j
i tionists, 41 senators voted in the
j affirmative and 51 in the negative.!
I The third vote was on a straight- j
1 out ratification without reservations i
; which got only 38 votes to 53 oppos- I
ing it. Only one Republican, Sena- i
' tor McCumber, North Dakota, voted i
j with the Democrats in its support.
Republican Leader Lodge declar- j
!ed yesterday's voting constituted a
final decision on. the Peace Treaty j
Lodge Resolution
THE Lodge resolution to declare peace with Germany, which is a
concurrent measure, requiring approval of the House, but, accord
ing to general practice, no action by the President, follows:
Whereas, By resolution of Congress, adopted April 6,
1917, and by reason of acts committed by the then- German
government, a state of war was declared to exist between
that government and the United States; and
Whereas, The said acts of the German government
have long since ceased; and
Whereas, By an armistice sigrred November 11, 1918,
hostilities between Germany and the Allied and Associated
Powers were terminated; and
Whereas, By the terms of the Treaty of Versailles,
Germany is to be at peace with all the nations engaged in
war against her whenever three governments, designated
therein, have ratified said Treaty; now, therefore, be it
Resolved, By the Senate (the House of Representatives
concurring) that the said state of war between Germany
and the United States is hereby declared to be at an end.
unless President Wilson circumvent
ed the Senate rules by withdrawing
it and then submitting it again to the
Senate. In other quarters there was
some difference of opinion but the
general sentiment seemed to he that
there was only a slender chance that
the Treaty would come up at the
beginning of ,next session of Con
gress, beginning next month.
War-Time Laws Continue
One effect of the Senate's failure
to ratify the Treaty will be the con
tinuation of various war-time laws
and regulations at least until the
new session opens. Among these is
the war-time prohibition act.
The resolution presented last night
to declare a state of peace will come
up at the beginning of the new ses
sion and is expected to start another
stubborn light. The administration
is understood to be opposed to such
a method of legally ending the war
and in the background is a constitu
tional question as to whether Con
gress can do so by a resolution not
requiring the President's signature.
May Feel Out Powers
It was suKSestoil among 1 Demo
cratic senators that President Wil
son might be asked during the re
cess to feel out the other powers as
to their attitude on reservations
with the idea of bringing the, Treaty
to some sort of a ratification after
Congress reassembles.
The second vote on the majority's
ratification resolution was made pos
sible by the mild reservationists who
voted with the Democrats to get the
measure before the Senate and thus
give an opportunity for any eleventh
hour compromise proposition. Once
that had been accomplished, how
ever, the mild group held out against
all efforts of the Democrats to put
in their substitute reservations, so
that when the second vote was
reached after several hours of sparr
ing. the situation virtually was un
changed.
The resolution for ratification with
out reservations was put in by Sen
ator Underwood. Alabama, after the
second defeat of the other measure.
It was held in order and voted upon
without debate, but whep Senator
Pittman, Democrat, Nevada, sought
to get action on another resolution
containing interpretive reservations,
the Treaty consideration was cut
short by a point of order by Repub
lican Leader Lodge. Vice-President
Marshall held that previous decis
ions of the Senate in overriding his
rulings would operate to sustain the
position taken by Senator Lodge.
It as on a viva voco vote that the
Treaty after being before the Sen
ate for many weeks then was laid
aside. On Senator Lodge's motion
to take up legislative business, no
Babjusburg MJW II telegraph:
rollcall was requested and the Vice-
President declared it adopted by ac
clamation.
Blames Republicans
Blame for thef present situation in
the Senate was placed upon the Re
publicans by Senator Underwood,
Democrat, of Alabama, who called
upon them to go to the country with
the "assimilated issue" and said
their would be no question of the
people's verdict. While the Alabama
senator was speaking. Senator Swan
son, Democrat,, of Virginia, was bus
ily engaged in conference upon the
lloor with Senators Lodge and Wat
son, in an apparent eleventh hour
attempt to bring about a compro
mise.
Senator Underwood said the
American people demand peace at
the hands of the Senate.
This side of the chamber," he
said, pointing to the Democratic
side, "is not responsible to the coun
try for the action the Senate may
take. The control is in the hands
of the Republicans. The Republican
party is responsible to the people
for the peace of the nation. What
a spectacle is presented to the na
tion to-night by the way the Repub
licans are exercising the power en
trusted to them by the people of the
United States."
Senator Underwood said that the
Lodge resolution in the vote taken
upon it last night received onlv a
little more than one-third of the
membership, the vote being, he said,
a repudiation of the exercise of
power by the Republicans. lie criti
cised the "parliamentary license" by
which they were able to bring a "re
pudiated resolution" before the Son
ate and charged that an attempt was
being made "to drive ail unwilling
majority to accept the dictates of
a small minority.
I Senator Underwood urged all sen
ators who had voted against the
Lodge resolution to "repudiate it."
| He then explained what future pto
cedure could be had.
"We shall maintain that we are
| entitled to offer other resolutions of
; ratification," Senator Underwood de
| elared. "The Vice-President already
i has ruled correctly that we have that
i right. But a majority of the Senate
1 destroyed his ruling. When this
j resolution (of Senator Lodge) is
1 voted down again we must face the
j fact whether a partisan majority,
which intends to destroy this Treaty,
can be controlled, and by indirect
j measures say to the Senate 'you
| shall ratify as we present it or not
at all.'
"That is the issue," Senator Un
derwood added. "I am prepared to
meet it and the American people
will know who is to ratify this
Treaty and who is to destroy it."
Penrose in Clash
Senator Pittman and Penator Pen
rose, Republican, Pennsylvania,
clashed during a discussion of re
j sponsibility for the tie up. Senator
Pittman charged that every reserva
tion in the Lodge resolution was dic
tated by Republicans desirous of
"killing the Treaty."
"Every Democrat." Senator Pen
rose interjected, "has voted on or
ders from the White House."
"I deny that." Senator Thomas,
Democrat, Colorado, declared.
"You're about the only one who
can deny it," Senator Penrose re
plied.
Rebels Completely
Routed in Fight to
Control Vladivostok
By Associated Press.
Vladivostok, Nov. 20. Revolu
tionary forces which for the last two
days have attempted to secure con
trol of this city were completely de
feated by Government troops to-day
in a battle which was commenced
before dawn. General Gaida, the
revolutionary leader, was wounded
and captured and his followers were
driven from every point of vantage
by Government troops.
Shortly after midnight, the Gov
ernment troops moved two three
inch Held guns into position at the
Svetlandskaia bridge, by which this
main thoroughfare of .the city crosses
the Siberian railroad. The bridge
is only 500 yards north of the sta
tion, the strongest position of the
rebels. A little later, troops, rein
forced by 100 cadets from the naval
training school proceeded to the
business center of the city, while
armored cars began arriving at the
bridge.
Before the battle opened, inter
national policemen and three Ameri
can soldiers succeeded in gaining
entrance to the railway station from
which they took two Russian women
who had been marooned there since
the fighting started.
At one o'clock there was a burst
of machinegun tire against rebels
holding the railway yards and gun
boats started to drop shells on the
station. Some of the shells set flYe
to the barracks of the American re
placement battalion.
While Governmental officers ex
pressed the belief there would be
little resistance by the rebels, the
latter seemed to be in control of the
railroad yards, although exposed to
artillery fire from the high ground
about the fcity.
Fire was opened at 4 o'clock on
the station from the field guns sta
tioned at the Svetlandskaia bridge,
which had a clear field of fire. Later
the fighting became general with the
revolutionists failing back every
where and finally being driven from
the station.
