PEACE PROVISIONS HALTED BY SENATE
,Inited States Cannot Aid in Carving Out Pact Until It Has Been Ratified-Real Pro- gress is Made.

Washington, Oct. 20.-Taking out rrovisions of the peace treaty in ad- sarca of the treaty's ratification by 4ho Senate. the administration an- nounced today that American diplo u,atic and military participation in .artain of these provisions must wait rntil the Senate has acted.
 At the state department it was de- elared this government would not ac- .ent the invitation of the supreme eo,,ncil at Versailles to take place immediately on the international com missions set up by the treaty, and at the war department it was made clear that no American troops would be used without Senate sanction to po- ice districts where the treaty pro- yides for plebiscites under the mili tary supervision of the great powers.
 The two announcements were made simultaneously and generally were accepted in the Senate, where the possibility of premature American participation in the treaty has been one of the storm centers of criticism as amounting to an administration declaration of policy on the subject.
 Senators on both sides of the treaty controversy expressed the opinion privately tonight that the administra- tion stand would aid in hastening the final roll call on ratification.
 Secretary Baker denied specifically suggestions made in the Senate de- bate that 5000 soldiers recently sent to Coblenz were to proceed to upper Silesia and help in the plebiscite there prior to American ratification. He declared the department have no au- thority to take such step if Sen ate reservation forbidding it were adopted, and added that in the cir cumstances there was no desire to anticipate Senate action.
 A reservation on this subject and one limiting American participation E in the various diplomatic commissions to be created are in preparation.
 One effect of the state departments announcement was to set at rest re- ports that President Wilson might disregard the advice of the foreign relations committee and name an American to act unofficially on the powerful separations commission

NEW YORK POLICE ATTACK SOLDIERS
300 Service Men Seek to Prevent Production of German Opera
 Several Shots Fired During the Melee.

New York, Oct. 2O.-Mounted po- lice tonight charged crowd of 300 service men who had massed in front of the Lexington theater to prevent production of German opera, upon which Mayor Hyland had placed an official ban.
 Dispersed by the police, the service men hastened to Times square, re- cruited nearly 1000 civilians, and re- turned to the theater. One section of the line engaged in a fight with the police, laying down barrage of bricks and stones.
 In the melee several shots were fired, but whether by police or the service men spectators could not de- termine. Scores of windows were smashed by stones and one marine suffered fracture of the hip.
 A block of cement was hurled from the roof of building opposite the theater. It struck the mud guard of a passing automobile and rolled to the sidewalk, almost striking two po- lice inspectors. Detectives ordered to the roof, arrested Joseph Smith, a sailor from the U. S. s. Imperator, on a charge of disorderly conduct. A few minutes later, mounted policeman was struck by a billiard ball. Various posts of the American Legion had passed resolutions con demning introduction of German op- era scheduled for tonight. Today re- presentatives of the Manhattan naval post waited on Mayro Hyland with a petition that the performance be stopped. The mayor issued an order prohibiting the performance, but des- pite the orders the sale of tickets con- tinued.
 Hundreds of soldiers, sailors and marines gathered in front of the theater and when the doors opened they raised a howl of derision and anger.
 Then, with an American flag at it's head, a long column of uniformed men swung down the street. At their appearance a call for police reserves was sent in. The service men were led by marine wearing a Croix de Guerre. A few minutes after the cur tain had been raised and the strains of German music sifted out through the doors, the veterans pressed for ward, only to be driven back and tenn porarily dispersed by mounted police On learning that directors of the Star Opera Company intended to give the performance regardless ot | his order, the mayor issued a state
