 ID VOTE THURSDAY
Blocking Is Temporary Opponents Adopt Parlia- mentary Tactics-Under Rule Bill Goes Over For While

WASHINGTON, May 26.-Oppon- ents of woman suffrage succeeded to- day in blocking efforts to expedite sen ate consideration of the constitutional amendment resolution, passed lass week by the house, but supporters plan to renew the fight Wednesday with the hope of bringing the measure to a vote Thursday.
 Immediately after the senate con vened at noon. Senator Watson of In- diana, new chairman of the woman suffrage committee called up the mo- tion of Senator Jones, republican or Washington, to take the resolution from the committee and place it on the senate calendar. Southern democratic senators registered opposition, insist ing that the resolution come up in the normal way with ample opportunity for debate.
 The first test of trength between the opposing faction came on the motion to table Senator Jones' motion, which was defeated 64 to 27 Opponents then resorted to parliamentary tactics to prevent vote on the Jones motion un- til o'clock, when it was set aside under the rule for renewal of debate Oil l1e T6SOlutlOn Ol SoclleilOA JoIlSOIA; republican of California, requesting the state department to furnish the senate a copy Of the peace treaty.
 Senator Johnson agreed to have his resolution go over temporarily but the rules prevented such action.
 Opponents freely admitted that there was no doubt of sufficient votes to in sure passage of the suffrage resolu- ton. and supporters expect to pass it Thursday after it had remained on the calendar for day, as required by the rules.
 Before the senate met, the republi- can conference called to consider com mittee selections adopted a resolution pledging prompt action.

COUNCIL HEARS MEN.
 STATES PATIENTLY

PARIS, May 26.-(By the Associated Press) s)-Representatives of the new states carved out of the former Flaps burg monarchy were given a hearing today before the separations commis- sion to present their objection to the proposed solution of the Austria Hun garian financial prblem, under which they would be held responsible for their share of the pre-war debt, the war debt the war issue of currency, and repar- ations and would be requested to com pensate Austria and Hungary as they will be constituted in the future, for the value of the public buildings and prop erty inside their limits.
 The protests against this great bur den were met sympatheticaily by the council of four. which sent the question to the reparations sub-commission for a rehearing. This sub commission will De supplemented by Franco-British representatives, who are understood to be opposed to any change.
 The beleif is held here that a new report will be made, exempting the new states from any payments on ac- count of reparation of public property taken over.
 The prime factor in the negotiations heretofore has been the fact that about three billoin francs of the Austrian pre-war debt is held in France, and the French government has promised to secure repayment to its nationals. Hence it has been anxious to distrib- ute the financial burden, in order to prevent the bankruptcy of the new Austria and Hungary
 An exclusive dispatch from Paris to the Associated Press last Thursday said it had been learned in trustworthy quarters there that the United States, Great Britain and France had united in sending a note to Italy, requesting an explanation of the landing Of ltal- ian forces in Turkey.
 The dispatch added that as result of the request an incident occurred during meeting of the council of four l When Premier Orlando entered the 1 council chamber, President Wilson ad- l dressed the Italian premier directly l asking what the answer was to the note of the three powers.
 1 Signor Orlando replied that he was prepared to explain to the council, bui would not do so until Premier Veni-
 zelos of Greece withdrew from tn, ] chamber. President Wilson, it wa,
 declared. insisted on Venizelos remain ] ing, but Orlando was obdurate. Neni-
 zelos finally left and later the counci expressed it's regret to the Greek pre- mier for the incident.

 The Winnipeg city council to-
 night, despite vigorous opposition
 from the labor members, voted nine
 to five to reorganize the municipal
 fire department along lines that
 will forbid the firemen to join oth-
 CT union forces in a sympathetic
 strike.
 Extreme bitterness marked the council meeting. The word rebel" was used twice.
 The council by a to vote, also adopted a resolution to provide lists of rity employees on strike prepared imme- diately and commencing Thursday, to have vacancies filled by men who will not desert their posts during sympa thetic strikes.
 Labor aldermen attempted to amend the resolution pertaining to the fire men. by substituting a recommenda- tion that a council committee call upon Premier T. c. Norris and urge legislation to provide for collective bas gaining. After the amendment was defeated and the original resolution was passed, the supporters of the fire men resolution reintroduced the labor alderman's collective bargaining amendment, as a result. It was passed. Four of the five labor aldermen voted against it. Labor councilmen objected to the use of the word rebel" as ap- piled to any person concerned with the strike. Mayor Gray challenged the ob- jection and sad that he considered the term might be applied to one labor leaderr
