ming of construction on the new sta
ton building ordered at Mena The ap-
peal was to the State Railway Com
mission, and copy was received by
the Mena Commercial Club. requesting
that Mena consent TO the delay.
There were several reasons given
for the request, among these being
the condition of uncertainty brought
about by the expected return of the
railroads by the government to the
former owners on January l, the high
cost of building operations, and the
unfavorable season Immediately fol-
lowing January 1.
The matter was gone over carefully

j. Smith was instructed to write the
Railroad Commission acquiescing in
an extension Of time of three months.
this period being set forth as entirely
eliminating the unfavorable season ell

bility. for the adjustment of the COM
plications likely to come up in connec-

ONLY CONPRIN|SE
CAN SAVE TREATY
Many Reservations Were Adopted by
Senate Saturday and Cloture Rule
Means Final Showdown This
Week-Both Sides Determined.

Washington, Nov. 15.-Complete
and utter defeat loomed for the
League of Nations and peace treaty
tonight, as the Senate, working in few
erish haste, under the lash Of cloture
for the first time in history, rapidly
drove the final smash, unless there is
a compromise or the part of the ad-
ministration.
Before adjournment ten more reser-
vations had been adopted to the treaty
and league, protecting American
rights. They were committee reserva-
tions and their adoption had been tax
en- for granted after the first test
vote early in the week Disposing of
them merely hastened the end. But
it was the rush toward the finish, with
both sides with their jaws set and de-
termined not to bulge an inch. that
forecast the ultimate defeat outright
or virtual defeat of the league thru a
deadlock of months, unless there is a
giving away somewhere. The cioture
forces the final showdown next week.
There is no escaping it.
late tonight tire prospects for a
compromise appearee brighter Sem
ator Hitchcock called a confer nee of
supporters of the treaty, which will
will be open to Republicans as well as
Democrats. The meeting will be held
as soon as the senate completes action
on committee reservations, Monday
or Tuesday. Mild reservation Repub-
Leans are expected to play an import
ant part in the outcome. So far sem
ators of this group have isdicated they
would accept no compromise after the
senate had once voted on ratification.
For weeks, both sides, the leaguers
protesting against any reservation and
the anti-leaguers and reservationists
insisting on protection of every Amer
lean interest, have been blufAng back
and forth. But today both sides have
shovedsin all their chips into one tre-
menduous jackpot-with the fate of
the treaty as the stake. The admins
tration has risked everything on a
gamble that by defeating the reserva-
ton program by virtue of minority
vote when two-thirds is required they
may bluff some better compromise out
and the Republicans are calling the
bluff.
THE treaty is dead unless the pro-
gram of reservations s accepted"
Senator Lodge, the Republican floor
leader, announced Immediately fol-
lowing announcement.
"The reservations already adopted
kill the treaty" said Senator Gilbert
M. Hitchcock, the Democrat floor lead
er, who has been given full power by
President Wilson to take any steps he
believes necessary.
