CONGRESS- MAY
ADJOURN NOV. 20
MOndell Wants Session to End
Nov. 10, but Lodge Thinks
1t Impossible.
SENATE CAN'T HALT THEN
Republican Leader Demands
That Treaty Be Out Of Way
Before Regular Session.
Special Despotch to THE suS.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 17.-Adjournment
of the special session Of Congress on
or about November 10 was asked to-
day of Senator Lodge (Mass.), ma
jority leader, by Representative Mon
cell (Wyo). House Republican leader.
Senator Lodges reply was that he
did not believe the Senate could finish
the treaty and clear up other pressing
matters that should be disposed Of at
the special session by that time. AS
the result of the conference Mr.. Mon
dell and other House leaders are now
talking Of November 20 as the date.
Senator Lodge indicated that 1t was
too early to make any plans for ad-
iournment because of the treaty sit
uation. He is strongly opposed TO
any plan that would delay final action
on the treaty until the regular session,
which convenes December l.
Mr.. Mondell's request indicates that
Congressional leaders practically have
given up hope OF acting on the many
important domestic questions at the
cpSSioL ocosioH. lSldllOnt H.
Ia now virtually certain. must 60 over
to the regular session. as we'll as the
permanent marine policy. army and
navy reorganization and other important
problems. The House Interstate Com
merce Committee will not have its bill
before the House until about November
l, and the army reorganization bill
could not be presented until late In No
vember. The merchant marine pro-
gramme is far from being in the form
of a definite bill
Sentiment in both houses Of Congress
undoubtedly Is for an adjournment as
soon as the peace treaty is disposed OF
and few bills considered pressing are
passed. Members of the House have
been urging Republican leaders to ask
for an adjournment for more than a
month. The House has been doing little
more than marking time for several
weeks. according to Champ Clark. Demo-
cratic leader. who says II Is generally
agreed the numerous measures passed
must be Ieintroduced and agreed to In
the regular session, because the Senate
will not act at the special session. He
and other Democratic leaders favor ar
adjournment as early as possible. Mr.
Mondell. however. has been insisting
that the House stay on the Job every
day, believing that by passing bills thai
require several days debate time can bt
| saved In the regular session.
Some adjournment, even though II bt
J but for ten days or two weeks, seems
certain. Numerous important State anC

IN ALLIES NOTE
Peace Conference Acted Alone
in Asking German Cooper

BREACH is INDICATED
Washington Against Includ-
ing Berlin in Any Move
Against Soviets.
by LAURENCE HILLS.
Star Correspondent Of THE sus.

Copyright. 1918. oil rights reserved.
Germany inviting participation In the
joint blockade against Soviet Russia
was sent without the knowledge of
the American mission. This note was
Identical except for the paragraph
affecting Germany with the note the
Americans understood was to be sent
to the neutrals and there was no in
timation that 1t was to be sent to the
Germans.
Inclusion of the Germans has pro-
voked criticism In England and
France. 1t is a surprising fact that
the Americans did not see either the
notes to the neutrals or the one to
Germany; yet the text as given out
in Berlin shows that the document
was sent in the name of the confer
ence and constituted O general dec
laration of policy with regard to Boil
shevism.
The explanation of the position Of the
Americans regarding this dlpiomauc
step taken by the other Powers is that
the Americans while subscribing in
principle to the policy of wiping out Boil
shevism. couldn't subscribe to any policy
which gave recognition of the policy of
pacific blockade. Accordingly they told
the others to go ahead. adding that they
would confine themselves merely to re-
fusing clearance papers to American
ships bound to Russia.
The other Powers then drew up the
note and without submitting it to the
Americans sent 1t in the name of the
conference. The Americans plainly do
rot approve of the inclusion of Germany
and Austria in this proceeding. They
also regard the whole step as unneces-
sary and unwise, as the blockade zone
will soon be ice bound and dangerous.
| The incident is surprising as denoting
demarcatlon between America and the
Allies.

Further details OF the situation south

II appears the Bolshevik armies In that
region are launching counter attacks
against Gen. Denikines lines. with tho
exception OF the capture of Kiev the
Bolsheviki seem TO have been repulsed
along the new front
The French and British missions in
Letva requested the Lettish Government
TO effect an armistice with the forces OF
Col. Avalon -Bermondt. according to pri-
vate advices received here. The advlces
say that the Lettish Government refused
to entertain this proposal, pointing out
that the Allies In July urged them 10
conclude an arnstlce with the German
General Won der Goltz. and undertook
to effect a withdrawal OF the German
troops from Letva- but that the Ger
mana are still there and attacking.

The march of Gen. Yudenitch at the
head OF the northwestern Russian army
on the city OF Petrograd was still pro-
crossing faVorably at the latest advicee
Some reports of his advance however
have apparently outrun his actual prog
ress. There appeared, for instance, some
doubt to-day whether the fortress Of
Cronstadt, outpost at the water ap-
proach 70 Petrograd. had capitula ted to
British naval forces as indicated in re-
ports during the night. The British Ad-
miralty had received no conirmat tory
advices and the accuracy OF the news
was questioned in Admiralty circles
Dispatches from Scandinavia have an
nounced the capture OF Gatchina, twenty
FIVE miles south of Petrograd. by the
Yudenitch forces, and stated that he was
advancing on Tsarskoe Selo, former
summer residence of Emperor Nicholas,
and Krasncye Selo. near by. Reports OF
the capture Of these places by the anti
Bolshevik army, however. seemed of
doubtful accuracy. A Boshevik wire
less station Ia located at Tsarkoe Selo
and announcement was made by the
wireless Press here this morning that
the Bolsheviki were apparently still In
possession OF 1t, as Soviet propaganda
was yet being sent ont from the station
during this forenoon.
Bolshevik troops are said to have cap
tured Kiev. but IN this region the stu
alton is obscure. II was reported last
week that Kiev was In the hands OF
Gen. Petlura's Ckraln!an army, which
