and voted upon without debate, but
when Senator Pittman, Democrat,
Nevada, sought to get action on an
other resolution containing interpre-
tative reservations, the treaty con-
liberation was cut short by a point of
order by Republican Leader Lodge,
Vice-president Marshall held that pre-
vious decisions of the Senate in
overruling his rulings would operate
to sustain the position taken by Sen
ator Lodge.
1t was on viva voce vote that
the treaty after being before the SEN
ae for many weeks, was then laid
aside On Senator Lodges motion
to take up legislative business, no
roll call was requested and the vice
president declared it adopted by ac-
clamation.
Senator Lodge, after adjournment
tonight, declared "the treaty is dead
so far as this senate is concerned"
Republican leaders said the senate
need not advise the president of its
aation nor return the. treaty to him
with formal notice.
"The president may withdraw it
when the senate reconvenes" Senator
Lodge said, "and of course, he can
then re-submit it in the next session.
But the treaty is dead in this SEN
ate and they killed it as / told them
they would if they voted against it."
Senator Hitchcock said the treaty
was not dead and that he presumed
that the president would re-submit
is on December 1, although he had
no definite word from the president
to that effect He said he thought
the Republicans had worked them
selves "into a very awkward posi-
tion," and had split themselves in
the senate and in the country.
The final vote on adjournment
sine die was AZ to 81.

FIN ANCIAL

New York, Dec. 12--Sensational move
ments of money which jumped from s
to Is per cent and then. back to the
minimum rate and the precarious condi-
situation effected another downward. re-
vision of prices on the stock exchange to-
day.
In the course Of the "readjustment"
motors, oils and steels. registered extreme
declines Of 8 to is points. many margined
accounts We're closed out. indicating that
some of the soft spots created by last
months upheaval still remained
To a considerable extent today's liquida-
ton was impelled by the action of the
Federal Reserve bank, which late yester-
day announced another advance of Il of
l per cent interest and rediscount rates.
Apart from this consideration, however.
the market had to reckon with further
foreign offerings, especially of high grade
rails, these again being attributed to The
depreciation of exchange on London.
British demands bills fell to the low
level of 81, 66A,. fraction Of a cent un-
der yesterdays low. but other foreign re-
mittanees especially francs and Tires, sug-
gested that action was being taken abroad
TO check the demoralizing decline.
The rally of the last half hour was
not wholly due to the relaxation Of money
rates, the short interest doubtless cover
ing some Of it's contracts on the showing
made by the government crop report.
This was especially favorable as to cora
and winter wheat, IN which final esti-
mates were much in excess Of the five
year average.
Sales amounted to 1,s75,oo0 shares.

ket, speculative rails adding from frac-
lions to point to theif recent steady de-
cline. Liberty and Victory issues also

New York stock market weakness. In
addition, the continued record-breaking
tumble Of foreign exchange rates tended
to increase bearish sentiment. and so
likewise did liberal receipts OF corn.
Selling, though. was overdone. and In view
of the fact that the government report
was to be issued soon after the close OF
trading operations here the majority OF
dealers found themselves in competition as
buyers during the last hour.
Oats were governed by the fluctuations
of corn.
