FIL|BUST LEAGUE OF NATIONS IS
 STARTED

By Associated Press.
 WASHINGTON, Mar. 3.-Re- newed controversy over the league of nations and the long threatened flibuster came tonight as the clocks were ticking of the hours ending the life of the Sixty fifth congress. Unprecedented crowds watched th> proceedings in both the senate and house which are expected to remain in continuous session until adjourn ment at noon tomorrow.
 In the senate the minority fili- buster stopped headway on the general deficiency bill carrying an appropriation of $75O,OOO,0O0 for the railroad administration.
 The republicans said their tao tics were not directed against the railroads fund which, it is pre- dicted, would pass, but as means of holding of further legislation. The formal death blow was given to many measures, including the army and naval appropriation bill.

It having cen suggested that Baca pay in on his bottle. the latter stated he did not have any money. Griego offered i'm a handful of small change as a 'oan, and Baca had struck the coins rom his hand, with the assertion thar Triego might offer some real money. Tince he was well fixed. Griego pro- tested his comparative embrassass- nent, and offered his watch. It wa, burned Apodaca then offered his, nd after Baca had knocked Griego'S yatcn out of his hand, Griego had got incensed and struck Baca. Apo iaca essayed the role of peace-maker, nd like all such, accumulated only )iff on the jaw from Griego.

There was much more exhibit material which Griego disclaimed ever having seen. This included a small hammer with broken handle, a broken broom and a piece of two-by-four about four feet or more long.

 WASHINGTON, Mar. 3.-M'ovs- ment for a formal expression by the senate of it's opposition to the leagVe of nations constitution snow framed promises to provide dramatic eli max at the close of congtess. Republican Leader Lodge prepared a resolution proposing first that the senate declare the present draft be not approved and second that the American peace commissioners bs urged to proceed immediately with the work of concluding peace with Germany
 To Notify Paris.
 This unexpected move by the re- publican leaders was designed prir marily as a means of formally notify ing the peace conference and the country as to the views of members of the new senate on the subject and followed many hours of debate in the sehate and brief addresses in the house.
 Lodge Resolution Fails.
 When Senator Lodge introduced his resolution setting forth his two propositions, he asked that it be ad- mitted to debate by unanimous con sent, but Senators Martin and Swan son objected and it went over under the rules.
 Unable to secure consideration of the resolutions Lodge read the names of g members of the next senate. which will consider the peace treaty, whom, he said, favored the resolu- ton. This total of g IS more than a third of the membership or enough to defeat ratification of the peace treaty for which a two-thirds vote is required.
 While opposing the proposed con stitution the resolution would express the desire of the senate that the na tions of the world unite to promote peace and general disarmament. Fl also said that the proposal of the league to insure the permanent peace of the world should be taken up for careful and serious consideration after the peace treaty has been con cluded
