Gastineau Gossip
 (An Intercepted Letter.

Dear Mary:
 This is merely to let you know that l am still with you, and to keer this space in the paper. Nothing has happened this week. There hasn't even been a boat from the South So, where pray tell, could find any gossip for you?
 # # #
 Everyone is looking forward to the Fireman's Ball, to be given next week. It is the first party for ages that people have talked of wearing evening dresses to. It will be nice to see them again and they should help to lend a more festive air to the affair. I hear those in charge of the party are planning to make il something quite unusual.
 x # #
 That reminds me, Mrs, Rosselle has received instructions for the new dances and I suppose before long we will be cantine cantering and camou flage one-stepping. Mrs. Rosselle says they are all very attractive.
 # # #
 Mrs. Finnegan and Pat and Terry left this week for Seattle where they will visit Mrs. Finnegan's mother. They will be back in couple of months.
 # # #
 Several Juneau discharged soldiers are returning North on the boats that are due here this week end. A few were also released from Fort Seward this week-among them Dr. Freeburger Mrs. Freeburger will be North soon after spending the Win ter with her relatives in Portland

Senator from New Mex
leo Says He VIII Vote
to Reject the Entire
Treaty and Throw 1t
Into the Discard

Washington, Oct without
the Formally OF a roll call, the
senate today rejected the last OF the
Fall amendments to the peace treaty
The amendments, two in num-
Der, were designed to limit the work
of the American representative on
the r~eparations con1m mission to vot-
ing on matters connected with the
disposition OF German ships.
The defeat of these amendments
leaves only two of the committee
amendments yet to be voted upon.
These are the amendment by Sena-
tor johnson, Of California, to ralse
the voting power OF the United
States in the league of nations to
an equality with the British empire
and the amendment by Senator
Moses, of New Ham pshire. TO pro-
vide that To any matter affecting any
part Of the British empire all the
dominions Of the empire shall be
excluded from voting.
1t is conceded that both OF these
amendments will be defeated and
the senate will then turn its atten-
ton TO the effort to agree upon a

bate, and the vote may be taken

The debate on the Fall amend
rnents was brief. Senator Fall,
their author, conceded that the
senate would reject them and an
nounced that, In view of this de-
termination upon the part Of the
majority in the senate he would
vote to reject the entire treaty. He
said that the majority of the foreign
relations committee had hoped that
the senate would agree to perfect
the treaty by adopting amendments;
but as this could rot be done. the
only reasonable course was 70 throw
the whole treaty into the discard.
Senator Fall declared that the
terms imposed upon Germany by
the r~eparation clauses cannot be
carried out except by armed force"
and expressed the doubt that any
serious attempt would be made TO
carry them out As to his own po-
sition in opposing the treaty unless
amended. the senator said he
would never have to apologize for
his votes nor make any expIana-
ton to the people for his course. (
