WILL DISCUSS TREATY
 UNTIL VOTE IS TAKEN
Uninterrupted Debate Be- gins Thursday and Both
 Sides Agree to Action.

Washington, Feb. 24.--Uninterrupt- ed senate consideration of the peace treaty until a vote is reached on rat itlcation will begin Thursday under plan announced in the senate today by Senator Lodge, the republican leader. The suggestion was received with put objection from the democrat ic side
 The de :ision to keep the treaty up continually was regarded generally vas likely to bring quickly to a decision the conflict of opinion among the democrats regarding reservations. Democratic senators who believe the republican reservations should be ac- cepted continued their movement for a party caucus to discuss policy and predicted that such a meeting would be held before the end of the week.

EIGHT MURDER CASES
 FOR SUPERIOR COURT March Term Will Be Busy One, With Total of 51
 Accused To Be Tried.

Hartford, Feb. 24.-Eight murder cases are on the March term docket of the criminal court for trial but more than two may not come up at this time.
 Four of the alleged murderers are Frank Rosa, Nathan Salsberg, Jacob BronerWine and Saul Joseph, accused in connection with the wholesale deaths from wood alcohol poisoning two months ago. A fifth is Fran cis Murphy of Hoboken, N. J., accused of being an accessory to the killing of Captain Madden, watchman, in Man chester a year ago. The sixth case is that of Luman c. Beckett. for the murder Of Charles Taft, taxi driver in New Britain in March, 1917. Two cases are likely to go to the grand jury-George Maturko of SutfieId, ac- cused of killing his wife, and Samuel BobroWicZ, who shot a boarder at his home.

DEMOCRATS MAY BE
 TRYING TO SWITCH
Movement on Foot for Caucus to Change Policy on Treaty
 Reservations.

Washington, Feb. Achievement among senate dem ocrats for the hold ing of a party caucus for consfdera- tion of 8 poSsible shift in policy on treaty reservations continued today under the surface.
 Strong supporters of the adminis- tration, while expressing willingness to enter into a caucus, declared, how ever, that 8 meeting of party members would reveal little change in seni- ment on their side of the senate chamber.
 Republican leaders watching the reported development in the demo- cratic ranks reiterated their assertion that 22 democrats had evidenced a willingness to accept the republican reservation program. Administration leaders disputed this total, which, added to the known republican strength, would bring the supporters of the Lodge reservations to within 8 dozen of the two-thirds vote re- quired
 Previous to the convening of the senate today, leaders of both parties were unable to say whether consid- eration of the treaty would be re- stunned or whether some of the more urgent legislation would be taken up.

STATE SUFFRAGISTS
 TO KEEP UP FIGHT
Say Connccticut'S Ratification is Not Necessary, But They Want it
 Just the same.

Hartford, Feb. 24.---Miss Katherine Luddington, president of the Connect icut Women's Suffrage association, who has just returned from the na- tional association convention in Chi cago, today said that although the rat ification of the national suffrage amendment now seems assured with out the aid of Connecticut the Con necticut association will not abandon the attempt to bring Connecticut in as one of the necessary s36 states.
 Miss LllddinGton said:
 "As long as there is a chance that our state can redeem it's reputation in the country and get in as one of the 36 states which will have the honor of making ratification of the federal amendment complete the Connecticut Suffrage association will speed up work rather than slack down.
 Referring to the failure of the re- publican state central committee to act upon the petition presented to 1t by members of the Mems Republican Ratification committee at the meet ing held February II, Miss Ludding- ton said:
 "It is becoming daily clearer just who is responsible for the humiliating position in which our state is placed. The failure Of the repuDllcaf SLdIe central committee to act upon the pe- titon of AIS names of prominent re- publicans throughout the state asking that l special session should be called shows us very plainly where that re- sponsibility should rest We know who are our friends and who are op- posing us and we lay the failure of Connecticut to act at the door of the chairman of the republican state central committee"
 X meeting of the executive board of the association will be held at suf- frage headquarters in Hartford on Friday of this week to consider fur ther plans for the work.
 'I have nothing to say regarding Miss Luddington's stateme ent," said J. Henry Roraback, chairman of the re- publican state central committee today.

BREAK THREATENED
 AMONG K. K. MEN Cannot Reach Agreement On Wil- sons Wage Settlement Policy. SOLUTION IS NOW HELD UP
Demands to Ask President to Veto Bill Are Growing More Insistent at Every Conference of Union Leaders, It Is Declared.

Washington, Feb. 24.-Threats of a break in the affiliated railway enl- ployes' organizations initiated today against immediate solution of the questions before the representatives or the 100000 railway workers confer ring here on President Wilson's pro- posaI for a settlement of their wage demands.
 Because of the wide divergence of views held by the committeeman called to Washington to consider the White House policy, executives of the organizations admitted they did not know whether they could hold the strength they had gained when it was agreed 10 days ago that the organiza- tions should affiliate to consider the proposal.
 Strong for Veto.
 In every conference, it was said, de- mands for an appeal to the president to veto the railroad bill continued to grow more insistent. The leaders, therefore. were confronted with the task of explaining to the local chair men the basic reasons for their tenta- tive acceptance of the presidents plan while the latter were bitterly alta elk ing the governments general policy and the manner in which it had dealt with the wage controversy.
 The leaders also were forced to com bat moves of radical elements in several directions. They said these might take definite form at any time
 Committeeman Not United.
 That the general committeeman are not by any means united in favor of the presidents proposition was indi- cated by private discussions among the executives as to courses of action in event the plan is rejected. E. J. Manion, president of the Brotherhood of Railroad Telegraphersx was said to have suggested that the whole con- troversy be referred to the general mem bership.l This proposal has not gained headway among the other ex- ecutives, it was said.
