Washington, Nov. 13. Squarely joining the issue with President Wilson, the senate adopted today a reservation qualifying the obligations Of the United States under article ten Of the League of Nations covenant A solid republican lineup, reinforced by tour democratic votes. put the reser- vation across exactly as it came from the foreign relations committee and Tn virtually all the language which the president declared 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 light for reservations having thus been carried to q climax. the re- publications presented for future ac- tion cloture proposal designed to bring final action on the question of ratification within week. A less sweeping measure, proposing limita- tion on the reservation debate only. had been put in by the democrats ear Her in the day but rejected when the republicans voted to sustain a point of order against it.
 Vote on CIoture Saturday.
 A vote on the question of clamping down a cloture on debate will come Saturday morning, and the republi- can leaders say it will depend entirely on the democrats whether the move rallies the necessary two-thirds to make cloture effective. The demo- cratic leaders were not ready tonight to say how they would vote, being fearful that agreement to so sweeping a program might ilnperil their chances to secure action on 8 ratification res olution of their own.
 The article ten reservation as adopted by the senate follows:
 The United States assumes no ob- ligation to preserve the territorial in tegrity or political independence ot any other country or to interfere witt controversies between nations = whether members of the league or no under the provisions of article ten or to employ the military or maya l forces of the United States under an, article of the treaty for any purpose unless in any particular case the con gress. which under the constitution has the sole power to declaRe war o authorize the enlpla aymenL of .the mili
