shine to discuss the situation
 One of the main attractions con sisted of barbed wire entanglements near Wilhelmstrasse and field guns and machine guns posted in front or the military guards at the Br3nden- urg Gate. The naval colors were displayed at Brendenurg Gate as well as on all the government uildings. . Very few of the numerous prome- naders seemed to have thought or threatened catastrophe. Brightly decorated .vEhiciLi conveying hun dreds of persons moved in the di- rection of the siariendorf race course, while a detachment of marines with bands and flying banners marched through Brandenburg Gate and Wn- helmstrasse. The troops were greet ed with the waving of handkerchiefs from buildings along the way.
 In Franzos!schestras thls morn ing the fire cocks were turned on by workmen and water gushed into the gutters. Women and children could be seen hurrying to get supplies Some of the hotels have their own water supply and electric installa- tions. So, the guests scarcely felt the lack of water which has already be- gun to cause general suffering. To-
 
 the hotels ceased to work, and the guests who had not been prduent enough to lunch earlier than usual had to hunt food for themselves. The Central Hotel kitchens closed at noon and little more than dry bread. coffee, tea and cocoa were served. ! The walters left at one o'clock. The government is making the greatest effort to convince the people that this is a republican and demo- cratic government. Automobiles rush through the streets carrying sol diers who throw bundles of leaflets among the crowds, while airp'anes circle the city dropping leaflets everywhere. One of these. headed ''The Monarchist Coup Lie" says:
 we do not want restoration of the monarchy. but fulillment of the promises made to the people. We do not want revolution. but reconstruc- ! tion."

 That eventuality. say the admins tration leaders. will mean without doubt that the treaty. again will fail Of ratification and that the issues of the long fight will be thrust undecided into the political campaign.
 Both the administration forces and the democrats who favor acceptance of the republican reservation in sun- stance are expected to make a fight tomorrow to get in amendments that will gain democratic support. while several senators have substitutes os their own on which they will ask roll calls.
 One new topic which it was suggest % ed might be brought into the discus sion was the revolution in Germany and steps of the allies to deal with tt.
 On both sides 1t was conceded. how
 ever. that European developments of the past few, days probably would have 10 effect on the treaty outcome. The disposition on all sides seemed tonight to get it all over with as soon IS possible. and sorse senators were predicting that vote on ratification
 'tselt might be reached by Wednesday or Thursday.

DO NOT INTEND TO
 RESTORE MONARCHY

London, March IA wireless despatch received here today from Berlin says: "The new men in pow definitely declare that they do not in tend to restore the monarchy. They are prepared, under certain condi- tions, to form a coalition government in which the majority socialists would be included, but they insist on appointing non-partisan experts as chiefs of certain ministries, hoping thereby to improve political and econ omic conditions.
 ''In all the government offices yesterday work went on as usual ana business in the city was not inter rupted. The new government warned the socialists that strong meas would be taken If they interfered with vital industries.
 "The typesetters this morning re- fused to set up the new government proclamation if that of the old gov ernment and of the socialist party were not issued simultaneously with it, consequently the publication of all the newspapers has been suspended for the time being.
 Herr Rauscher, chief of the gov ernment press bureau, was arrested for his own protection. He has been succeeded by pr. Brederk, a well known member of the Fatherland party. It is stated on behalf of the government that the government is aware that a large part of the work men will oppose it. but there is no intention to suppress the workers or rob them of their acquired rights"

Washington. March 1.-The sen- ate's verdict on Article Ten. by which it is conceded that ratification Of the peace treaty is to stand or fall, will be pronounced tomorrow under a unani- nous consent agreement providing fur a final vote before adjournment.
 Democratic and republican advo- cates Of a compromise. although dis couraged almost to the point of hope lessness, still were working desperate ly tonight to secure adoption of res ervation which would command SUD- port enough to insure ratification. Some of them hoped they might reach that end by alterations in the republi- can substitute presented Friday. Others hoped the substitute as it stands would be accepted by the requisite number of democrats. But all leaders agreed that either of these possibilities was very remote.
