 The ratification resolution which would have required two thirds ma jority for adoption only mustered 39 votes 10 55 against it. Its supporters were 35 republicans and four demo crats, and it's opponents 13 republi- cans and 42 democrats
 The result was to place the treaty iM parliamentary status which it's enemies declared amounted at least temporarily to rejection. It's friends however. had hopes of revtving 1t al anoti$ $ session of congress.
 After the ratification vote the re- pcblicans permitted their resolution in exactly the form rejected Go come up for further consideration but as the session extended into the evening the solid republican lineup which had held throughout the day against re-
 H.. posslis. showed no signs of yielding.
 The first vote taken on this res lution stood S9 for 70 55 against. Or the second vote taken after severa hours Of parliamentary wranglingN ir which the democrats made vain efforts 10 win over some of the republican group of mild reservationists, 41 sen. ators voted in the affirmative and 51 in the negative.
 The third vote was on a straightou ratification without reservations whicf got only 3S votes to 53 opposing it Only one republican. Senator McCum ber North Dakota. voted with tn, democrats in its support.
 Republican Leader Lodge declared today's voting constituted final de rision on the peace treaty unles President Wilson circumvented thi rules by withdrawing it and then sub uniting it again to the senate. Tn oth CT quarters there was some difference of opinion but the general sentimen seemed to be that there was but !: slender chance that the treaty wouu, come up at the beginning of the mex session of congress, beginning mex month.
 one effect of the senate's failure t ratify the treaty will be the contin uance of various war time laws an regulations at least untii the new ses sion opens. Among these is the wa time prohibition act
 The resolution presented tonight t declare a state of peace will come u At thel beginning of the new sessio End it Is expected to start anothe stubben1 fight. The administratio is understood to be opposed to such method of legally ending the war an ir the background Is a constitutions question as to whether congress ca do by resoiution not requiring u, presidents signature.
 It was suggested tonight anon, democratic senators that Presider Wilson might be asked during the re r-ss to feel out the other powers d To their attitude on reservations wit the idea C bringing the treaty { some sort of ratification aftt congress reassembies.
 The second vote on the majority ratification resolution was made pos Eibie by the mild rcservatfonists wh voted with tho democrats to get tf measure before the senate and thl give an opportunity for any elevent hour compromise proposition. OnC that had been accomplished, how ever the mig group held out aeaini all efforts Of the democrats to put their substitute reservations, so tn: when the resocnd vote was reacbe after several hours of sparring. the si nation virtifily was unchanged.
 The resolution for ratification witt out reservations was put in by Sens tor Underwood, democrat, Alabam after the second defeat of the oth, measure. IL was held in order ar voted upon without debate, but whs Senator Pittman, democrat, Nevad sought to get action on another resoI, tion consaNling interpretive reserv; tons. the treaty consideration was ci short by point of order by Repul iican Leader Lodge. Vice Presidel Marshall held that previous decisiol tf ths senate ia overriding his rr
