by the committee on foreign rela-
tions. Some democrats thought the
time ripe for the administration to
take overs the handling of the
covenant and hold the whip hand,
with the aid of the republicans, from
now on.
The question was raised whether
Senator Hitchcock could hold his
democrats intact so as to constitute
majority of the Senate with the aid
of the republicans. This question was
raised on account of the known dis
position of several democrats. includ-
ing Senator Shields and others. to IA
vor mild reservations. and still other
democrats favoring reservations OF a
stronger nature. 1t was suggested in
reply that the prospect of securing
republican votes and putting over"
the treaty, without damaging reser-
vations, would be likely to induce the
democrats to stick together. for party
reasons.
Might Seek Democrats Aid.
If the five republican senators
named should hold out to the end
against the reservations as drawn by
the committee on foreign relations
the next step for the republican lead
ership then would be to seek recruits
from the democrats. 1t was considered
doubtful whether they could be
gained in number sufficient to offset
the five. although they yesterday
claimed they could count upon eight

That the mild reservationists among
the republicans, including perhaps
some others than the five named, hold

five were said to be certain; that they
had pledged themselves to mild reser-
vations. and it was reported that at
least three other republican senators
were in sympathy with them, al

BRITISH S0L0NS
INSPECT FLEET
LORDS AND COMMONERs ENJOY
OUTING AFTER YEARS
OF WAR

LONDON, Aug. 23.-Parliament,
after five hard years devoted to the
business of the empire, is again
learning to play. Last week it oc-
cuDied a stand along the Mall while
the fighting men of the allies passed
in review. This week II continued
its r.ace cerebration by visiting
the fleet anchored of the mouth OF
the Thames at Southeni. And on
both occasions it cast aside the Dig
ni.y eEd hoary custons OF its an
3isr. legislative halls, All enjoyed
the novelty like a 'lor D: school boys
out for a frolic.
Monday the Lords saw the ships
"a comparatively small and select
party which left London late and
came home early. Tuesday it was
the turn of the Commons who
cheered the best known fighting
ships.
The Balmorel Castle which car
ried the Commoners and their wives
first circled the fleet, the Lizzie"
as the voyagers affeationately
termed Admiral Beatty's flag ship,
the Queen Elizabeth, being especi-
ally admired. Then the Warspite
which the Germans said they had
sunk at Jutland, the Lion, the Tiger
and a lot of other big ships came in
for admiration, while the Conqueror,
the Thunderer and some of the
smaller fighters we're greeted as old
friends.
The Balmorel Castle then steamed
down through the center of the
fleet. On one side were the big
ships; on the other the submarines,
chasers and destroyers. Few sailors
were in sight, but the crew of a sub
marine were loudly cheered as they
took position on deck for a few min
utes, and then went about some task
set by their commander. A de-
stroyer suddenly spOuted smoke,
gathered speed like an automobile
and tore out to sea.
But that was all the commander
showed of his fleet. There was no
firing of salutes; no orderly man
ming of the rails. Just the ships,
silent and grim, beloved by all the
English people as their first line of
defense.
