SENATE: Votes
TO CUT HEART
or ARTICLE: TEN
Reservation Which Wilson Said
Would Kill Treaty is Passed,
As to 33.
REPUBLICANS SOLID,
AIDED BY DEMOCRATS
G.. O. p. Leaders Also Present ClOture
Proposal Designed to Bring End
of Debate Within a Short
Time.

Washington, Nov. 13.-Squarely
joining the issue with President Will
son, the senate adopted today a re-
servation qualifying the obligations,
of the United States under article 10
of the league of nations covenant.
A solid republican lineup, rein
forced by four democratic votes, put
the reservation across exactly as it
came from the foreign relations COM
mittee, and in virtually the same
language which the president de-
clared on his western tour would cut
the heart out of the covenant and
mean the rejection Of the treaty. The
vote by which the reservation won
was 46 to 33.
The fight for reservations having
thus been carried to a climax, the
republicans presented for future act
ion cloture proposal designed TO
bring final action on the question Of
ratification within week. A less
sweeping measure, proposing limita-
ton on the reservation debate My
had been put in by the democrats
earlier in the day, but rejected when
the republicans voted to sustain n
point of order against it.
A vote on the question of clampin2
down a cloture on debate will come
Saturday morning and the republican
leaders say it will depend entirely On
the democrats whether the move raj
lies the necessary two thirds to make
cloture effective. The democratic
leaders were not ready tonight to
say how they would vote, being fear
full that agreement to so sweeping a
program might imperil their chances
to secure action on a ratification
resolution of their own.
Article as II Stands.
The article 10 reservation as ado.-
ted by the senate follows:
'The United States assumes 40
obligation to preserve the territorial
integrity or political independence
Of any other country or to interfere
with controversies between nations
whether members of the league or
10, or to employ the military or ma
val forces of the United States under
any article Of the treaty for any pur-
pose, unless in any particular case,
the congress, which under the con-
stitution, has the sole power to de-
clare war or authorize the. employ
ment of the military or naval forces
of the United States, shall by act or
joint resolution so provide"
In only two particulars does this
language differ from the proposed
reservation which the presiden, de-
clared at Cheyenne, Wyo., he would
be obliged to regard as rejection.
AS read by. Mr. Wilson the phrase
"under the provision of article 10"
occurred at a different place, and
the final word provide" was chang
ed to "declare."

l;I5dRE 7 SALES
MUST STOP Mere NJ: {:
On DECEMBER |
Indictment and Prosecution Aft
er That Date VIII Follow,
Officials Warn.
I" ANTS" INSIST ON
ENFORCEMENT OF LAW
Dealers Warned-N0ve Puts Smoker
TO Trouble of Rolling His Own
or Buy ing Outside the
County.

Violation of the anti-cigarct law
after December will be followed by
Indictment and prosecution, accord
ing to a statement issued November
], but only made public yesterday,
by K. Carnahan, foreman OF the
prosecuting attorney.
The announcement and warning is
the result of the appearance before
the grand jury Of persons who object
to the sale of cigarets, and who r.
sisted that the anti-cigaret law b"
enforced, SO far as known these
parties did not insist upon enforce
ment of some other laws, ignored by
common consent.
lnasmuch as the sale of cigarets
has been permitted with the appro,
val of Il majority of the people, the
authorities concluded it would be un-
fair to return indictments until
warning had been issued. Hence the
statement by the grand jury and the
prosecuting attorney.
This action is going to put cpiar-
ct smokers to some trouble They
will find it necessary to make their
purchases in Little Rock or other
towns where the sale of cigarets
is permitted, or they may purchase
here the "makins' and roll their
own. Doubtless many will use the
mails and buy by the cartoon. ANY
way, it is accepted as foregonc
conclusion that the smoker Of cigar
cts will continue to enjoy his "fa"."
though he will encounter more tron.
bic than the smoker of cigars or the
chewer of tobacco.
The statement issued by the GRAND
lurv foreman and the prosecuting
attorney follows:
Pine Bluff, Ark. Nov. /, 1919.
editor of The Graphic,
Dear Sir: A great many people
in Pine Bluff are interested in the
enforcement of the ciparet law
and these parties have gathered con,
siderable data which will be present.
ed to the grand Jury now imnanelled
to investigate violations of the law
"ln view Of the fact that con IL
tions have existed in Pine Bluff fo.
the past two years which have en-
couraged the sale of ciparets, and
also because Of the fact that a great
many dealers have been selling
cigarettes in violation of the law wrn
the the idea, perhaps. that thew would
not be prosecuted for such violations.
we think it fair to Che dealers that
thew be given notice that the law
prohibiting the sale of ciparets will
be enforced so far as possible and 4
testimony of violation is presnrta2
to the grand Jury, it is very likely
Indictment will be returned where
the evidence warrants it.
owe feel that all dealers will be
amply warned and after December
1st, 1919. all nersons selling cigarnts
in violation of the present law will
be reported to the grand iurv.
"Trustinp that you will give this
notice publication in your paper, we
are,
"Yours very truly,

NIHlSKEy OPENLY
SOLD As COURT
issues PERMIT
Kentucky Judge Gives Restrain
ing Order-Palmer to Oppose
Move.

Louisville, KY, Nov. 13.-For the
first time since July 1, when war
time prohibition went into effect
whiskey openly was sold in Louis
vile today without interference by
the federal authorities.
The sales were made by two
Louisville distillers from their tax
paid floor stocks, under the protec-
ton of a temporary Injunction is
sued by Federal JUDGE Walter Ev-
ans. but in the face of a government
warning that if the supreme court
finds wartime prohibition constitu-
tional, prosecutions were possible.
The action of Judge Evans today
apparently attracted wide attention.
Many messages were received asking
for copies of the brief and argu-
ments in the case in which the court
in effect, held wartime prohibition
unconstitutional. and upheld an at
tack on the Volstead enforcement
act. Pennsylvania liquor interests
appeared especially interested, mes
sages from Pittsburgh announcing
intention Of bringing similar suits in
federal courts.

Palmer to Fight.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 13.-Attorney
General Palmer's position with re-
spect to the enforcement of war
time prohibition has in no way been
altered by court decisions in Rhode
Island and Kentucky, it was official
lv stated tonight at the department
of Justice. The governments con-
tention that the wartime law is
valid. it wes added. will be vigorous
ly defended until final decision has
been handed down by the United
States supreme court.
While enforcement of the law is
stopped in the two states, United
States district attorneys, acting on
prior instructions. will proceed with
prosecutions of violators in other
communities, officials declared.
Department officials differed as
to the results of the Injunction. Some
held that during the life of the re-
straining order there was nothing to
prevent open sale of all intoxicants
as covered by the order. Others did
not AGREE with this belief.
With REGARD to the effect on the
constitutional amendment by the
Ohio referendum overturning the
legislatures action, the attorney
generals view was said to be that
action by the Ohio electorate woulc
not change the date on which the
prohibition amendment to the con-
stitution goes into effect. Unit
the number of states ratifying the
amendment falls below Sc the de-
nartment will not concern itself with
the chances in their identity, accord.

OKLAHOMA JURIST

Quoted as Saying He viii Have Land

Is Threatened.

Austin, Tex, Nov. 13.-Following
receipt here today Of reports that
an armed Oklahoma posse was
marching to attempt to take fogcible
possession of the Burke Senator oil
property, which is claimed by Texas
and Oklahoma, Receiver John w.
IIcrnsby received message stating
that an Oklahoma sheriff and IL
deputies had appeared and demand
ed possession of the land When
guards placed upon the property by
Receiver Hornsby refused to surren-
Gers left to report to Cham jones,
Judge Of Cotton county, Oklahoma,
who appointed the Oklahoma receiv-
er for the property, according to
the message which came from the
attorney representing Texas claim
ants of the land.
The Texas attorney generals de-
partment has wired Judge Jones and
asked if he intends to use force in
an effort to obtain the property.
Receiver Hornsby has wired Judge
G. c. Calhoun, who appointed him
and who is now in Georgetown, for
instructions. Receiver Hornsby said
that the governor has agreed to use
the state police force in enforcing
orders Judge Calhoun may issue if
necessary.
The land in dispute lies along the
south bank Of the Red river on the
Wichita county border and because
of oil discoveries is very valuable.
When the dispute over it arose, both
states appointed receivers and the
Oklahoma receiver got there first.
Later, by ruse, the Texas receiv-
or obtained possession of the prop
erty and after placing Guard upon
it, returned to Austin.
Reports coming to Austin quote
Judge Jones as having said that he
will cake possession Of the property
if it "takes every man in Oklahoma.
Cham Recants.
Waurika, Okla, Nov. 13-"The
order issued by me to Tillman and
Cotton county authorities to take
possession of the DISPUTED lands il
Red river was not intended as an
order to start battle between Off
cers of the two state" Judge Cham
Jones stated here tonioht
1T was my understanding that
these lands were being held by gu
employed by the interested parties
and | therefore ordered Oklahoma
authorities to take charge. While the
orders were explicit, they did not
specify that violence should be used.
ut is my contention that the
Texas Judge who issued the receiver
ship orders has no jurisdiction over
the matter, but of course this will
have to be threshed out in the courts
In the meantime, it is not the policy
of the state of Oklahoma to partici
pate in any battles between officers
of two states"

CYCLISTS RAGE TO TIE
Kramer and Spencer Have Exciting Duel Before 15,0oo Fans on the velodrome Track, Newark, \. J.

Newark, N. J., July 14.-Frank Kramer and Arthur Spencer rode to q tic for first place in a four-cornered match race at the Velodrome yester- day afternoon before 15,00O bicycle fans, the largest crowd of the season. The fire department stopped the sale of tickets to the grandstand Is min utes before the races started.
 Raymond Eaton and Alfred Goullet finished in a tie for third place. The race marked the first appearance of Spencer since June f, when he knocked Frank Kramer from his wheel and rendered him unconscious. Spencer has been off the track, sus- pended for almost six weeks, and before he rode he had to pay a fine Of S200 to the National Cycle asso- citation. There were mingled cheers and misses when Spencer made his appearance, but the fans gave him an ovation when he walked over and shook hands with Kramer.
 The race was an attenuation affair, with four heats, and three riders in each, one rider being left out of each heat In the first one, Kramer won by a sensa tional ride in which he en- circled GoulIet and Eaton. In tho second heat, Spencer showed Eaton and Goullet the way home in that order, while in the third heat, Spen- cer led Goullet and Kramer over the tape.
 Kramer came back with a world of speed and took the final heat from Eaton and Spencer. Kramer and Spencer were "all in' and did not ride off the tie for first place. This did not make a hit with the fans.

FAFNIR BEATEN AT LAST
Bill Dudack, Supported in Fine Fash ion by New Britain Machine Con- pany, Turns Trick.

Bill Dudack, aided by fine work of his New Britain Machine company teammates, broke the winning streak of the Fafnir Bearing company team Saturday afternoon at Walnut Hill park, in a to battle that proved very interesting for a big gathering of vootcrs As a result of the victory tho coffers of the Machine company rooters are said to be somewhat filled today. Dudack was in rare form. and the Fafnir hitters found it diff cult to land oil him safely. Two fine throws by Blinn and H. Campbell thwarted the efforts of the losers to dent the home plate. Arthur Camp bell. who was behind the bat for the victors, put up fine game. As usual the Fafnir team rooters were on hand with plenty of noise. Mickey Noonan umpired the game in a mastcrly manner. The Fafnir rootcrs put up a loud kick when one of their players was caught at the plate. It was one of those nonsensical kicks.
 The Stanley Works-Landers, Frary X Clark game was a thriller. the Cut lers coming from the rear with a vic tcry over the Buttmakcrs, score to 4. When Landers went to the bat in them. and some heavy pounding of the baseball, with two costly muffs by Paulson in center field netted them four runs and the game. Eddie Goeb contributed the fielding feature with a. enchanted catch in left field that was a dandy.

MEANWHILE WITH BRAVES
Popular National Lcagucr. Who Has Wide Acquaintance in This City. Will Play Here Next Sunday.

There is probably no baseball play CT performing in the National league, that enjoys any more local popularity than Rabbit Maranvillc. the pep pery shortstop of the Boston Braves who meet the Pioneers in this city next Sunday afternoon. The game will be played on the Ellis street dia- mond. and Mana ger James C. Luby is making provisions for caring for mammoth crowd.
 Maranville, who was christened Walter, is a native of Springfield, Mass, and from early youth he showed a keen interest in the na- tional pastime. During his scholastic years, he played with an earnestn ess. that prophesied for him a future in the big league. He further developed his prowess in factory leagues in his home town.
 It was while playing in the small tent, that P. F. Burns of this city first saw the Rabbit work Patsy, who is keen judge of a player, rccom- mended him to the management of the New Bedford team of tho New England league. One year in this circuit was all that Maranvillc need ed to convince the scouts looking him over, that he was of major league caliber and accordingly the 'Boston Braves secured his services. From the outset, Maranville has proven that his selection was no "darby'' and his work has been one of the strong factors in whatever suc- cess Stallings' men have attained.
 In 1914 the Braves started a rush >in the month of July that brought
 the 1aa ay1le sAnDnant and in
