HOLDS UP TREATY DEBATE

Washington, Sept. 24.-Exactly how
far the three-vote victory of the Re
publicans in the peace treaty fight in
the senate yesterday can be construed
as a real index of the feeling of the
senate toward the treaty and the cove
nant was a debatable question today
among the senators. Opponents OF
the League accept the vote as a true
lineup of the senators for final ac-
ton, while the Democrats make light
of the result and declare it means
nothing.
The vote, which stood 43 to. 40, was
taken on a motion by Chairman Lodge
of the foreign relations committee to
postpone for one week consideration
of forty or more amendments which
would relieve the United States from
service on commissions created under
the treaty.
| Altho Senator Lodges motion was
to defer consideration of the amend
ments offered by Senator Fall. Re
publican. New Mexico. until next
Tuesday" he later explained he had
chosen the date at random, and II was
changed to Friday.
Delays johnson Amendment.
The amendment of Senator johnson.
Republican, California, designed TO
equalize the voting powers in the
League of the United States and Great
Britain, is not expected now to be
taken up until the senate finally has
disposed of the Fall amendment. Dis
| cussion of a resolution by Senator
Overman, Democrat, North Carolina
for enforcement of the senate rule
against applause was cut short by an
objection to immediate consideration
| by Senator Mclean, Republican. Con-
necticut. The resolution was intro
duced as a result of the tumult from
| the galleries following the address OF
Senator Reed Monday.
