Its Defeat.
WILSON LETTER TO BE
READ TO SUPPORTERS
Added Provisos Adopted
. Guard U. S. Labor IN In
ternational Conferences
And Says Unequal Vot-
ing Shall Not Bind u. S.

With the adoption OF two addi-
tional reservations, the Lodge pro-
gram for treaty ratification was
disposed of by the Senate yester-
dav. The final phase Of the battle
over ratification will be inaugu-
rated today, when the resolution
embodyibg the fifteen reservations
viii be considered. The vote
will be taken probably tomorrow
1t appears probable that on the
first vote OF the Lodge resolution
there will be more than one-third
OF the Senate voting in the mega
tive, thereby defeating ratification.
But If a second vote is obtained
by means of reconsideration or
some other preliminary maneuver,
it is believed that enough OF the
Democratic Senators will change
to the affirmative to effect ratif-
cation.

ministration Senators will take on the
