Washington. Jan. 29.-Negotiations
between republican and democratic
leaders which apparently have ap-
preached a deadlock on the peace
treaty compromise, will not be ro-
sumed until tomorrow the meeting OF
the bipartisan committee having been
postponed because of the absence OF
Senator Lenroot, of Wisconsin.
There was much discussion Of what
course friends Of the treaty shopld
take II the bipartisan negotiations
ended without an agreement. Sena-
tor Hitchcock. of Nebraska. has told
he proposed to move to take up the
treaty in the open senate. but he said
today he would not do that until all
hope of compromise had been dis
sipated.
Meantime 1t developed that some
democratic senators were inclined to
the belief that nothing would be
gained by throwing the treaty back
into the senate in the near future.
These senators disagreed with Senator
Hitchcock that majority would be
certain of support.
New Fight Predicted.
Indications are that II Senator
Hitchcock carries out his threat the
senate will again witness a Droions ed
and bitter fght over the treaty. Re-
publican irreconcilables are more ir-
reconcilable than ever, and the group
IL, .
without compromise are confident that
they can always count sufficient votes
to block ratification If there is the
slightest modification Of the substance
of tho Lodge program. Senator Hitch

be possible to bring debate to an

Berlin. Jan. 2S.-Indication of the
governments growing concern over
the extraditlon of Germans accused of
war offenses was given in tho note
sent to the allies today asking rov,s-
ion Of clauses Of the Versailles treaty.
The attempted assassination Of
Matthias Erzberger, minister Of finance
last Monday Is viewed In ofhcial
Circles as a precursor OF whe, is likely
to happen IL the government appeals
to force in arrestins men on the list
submitted by the entente powers.
While It has been known that
Wilhelmstrasse would use all its pur-
suasive power In an effort to induce
the allies to desist In the ayoWed pur-
pose of demanding tho surrender OF
Germans, the shots aimed at Err
berger have made the cabinet more
apprehenslve than it has been at any
time relative to the enforcement OF
the extradition clauses.
The note, which will not lie publish
ed In Germany, warns the allied
powers that she can not be forced to
compel the local or national agencies
of the law to law hands on the men
wanted and transfer them to German
frontiers.
@ Officials Awed.
The Associated Press is informed
that even responsible officials Of the
foreign office will refuse to execute
any work connected with extradition

in passive resistance A leading
official Of the foreign office expressed
doubt today that n man could be found
in Germany who would lend himself
to the work Of executing n warrant
for the arrest or detention Of fellow
countrymau to be dragged before a
tribunal"
Suggestion Is made that the men
wanted be tried by the supreme court
at Leipzig and In this part OF the
communication the cabinet has indi
Gated It's belief tho nations highest
tribunal can guarantee an exhaustive
and impartial trial.
It Is pointed out that the allies arc
given representation on the bench of
the supreme court which should
guarantee fair trial.
Nation Ready to Strike.
The economic situation in Germany
is precarious at present and this Is an
unsuitable period to invite trouble, the
note indicates "the whole nation Is
likely to go on general strike" and an
official declared today, III 1t Is coerced
into even making a feint in the direc-
tion Of apprehendlng the men wanted"
