Believe Treaty Would Pass With
Underwood As Minority
Leader.
GLASS MAY END DEADLOCK
Republican Leader Says Two
thirds Vote Is Needed to
Bring Pact on Floor.

Senator Lodge and Republicans
who hope to pass the peace treaty
with the Lodge reservations now are
planning to gain ratification by fore
ing a realignment of the Democratic
forces in the Senate.
Republicans hope that within the
next ten days Senator Hitchcock, Ad-
ministratiop leader, will be .unseated
ssa Democratic caucus and Senator
Underwood installed in his place.
Willing to Compromise.
tion of being willing to accept the
Lodge reservations IL no other COM
promise can be arranged.
Hitchcock now Is planning to fight
the Lodge reservations to the finish
by calling the treaty up for considera-
tion on the Senate floor BY resolution
to be offered February 10.
In furtherance of the Republican
plan, Senator Lodge late yesterday
moved an executive session to con-
firm the appointment of Da I'D r.
Houston as Secretary of the Treasury
to succeed Secretary Glass.
May Swear Glass Tomorrow.
This was intended to relieve Glass
from his present post and bring him
to the Senate tomorrow to be sworn
in as the junior Senator from Vir-
ginia to fill the unexpired term of
the late Senator Martin.
Glass is believed to favor the eleva-
ton of Senator Underwood to the
Democratic leadership. Glass vote
would be sufficient to overthrow the
deadlock in the Democratic lines
which came up at the recent caucus
when Underwood and Hitchcock each
received an equal number of votes
for the leadership.
Republicans hope that as soon as
Glass Is sworn in, Democrats will call
new caucus. electing Underwood.
through to ratification with the
Lodge reservations.
Claim Two-Thirds Vote Needed.
Lodge also believes he can block
Senator Hitchcock's plan to bring the
treaty up for discussion on the floor.
He contends that a two-thirds vote
is necessary to bring the treaty on
the floor. Hitchcock contends that
only a majority vote is needed.
II is unlikely that a two-thirds
vote could be obtained in favor of
general discussion on the floor. II
Lodge is able to carry his point the
treaty thus will be defeated again.
In that case. Republicans believe
the proper procedure would be to re-
turn the document to the President
with the information that agreement
could not be reached.

American Consular Agent Would
Surrender Bond and Return
To Mexican Jail.
CLAIMS CASE PREJUDGED
Incarceration Might Force
State Dept. to Renew De-
mands on Carranza.

w. O. Jenkins, American diplo-
matte official, who was ordered to
trial recently before Mexican fed
eral court, has asked that his bond,
given originally before police court
by a party not in interest. be can
celed and that he be sent back to
Jail.
This information has reached one
of the embassies here, and the fact
produces a unique case in diplomatic
history.
Seeks Help Of u. s.
Z 1t is understood that Jenkins Is now
trying on his own account to put
himself back in the position In which
he can ask the State Department to
make good on it's demand that he be
released on the ground that all OF the
charges against him are baseIess.
The remarkable. points in the case
brought to light by the demand OF
jenkins are these:
First-Jenlins was arrest! ! ofigi-
nally on a criminal charge and sent
to Jail by a PuebIa court. When his
case came to trial. Jenkins asserted
that the trial judge had pretuuiced
his interests and that he could not
get a fair trial. He was then sent to
Jail, but subsequently released, or
dered held incommunicado for a time
and then sent to Jail on new charges.
Second. S. Hanson, an American
citizen. without authority from Jen-
kins, then deposited a bail bond.
which the police court judge accepted.
Then the supreme court OF Mexico, on
application of Jenkins, reviewed the
proceedings and ordered him tried in
the federal district court at Puebla.
Third-Jenkins found, as it Is stated
today. that the federal court had no
idea of trying him for An unlimit ed
period. he asked that the bond be
Cancelled and that he be sent back to
jail. Then the police court judge de-
clded orally that Jenkins had nothing
to do with the bond and that the only
person who could make such a re-
quest was Hanson. and II is stated
that Hanson will not make the re-
quest.
1t Is pointed out by officials Of the
embassy referred to that IL Is to the
interest of the Federal Court and of
tnt potlCt touTt 70 netp
just where he is" II the bond were
cancelled and Jenkins were sent back
to Jail, the State Department would
be obliged to reopen the question of
his immediate release as per the notes
now in Carranza's hands on the
subject
II the police court Judge. however,
Is sustained, and he doubtless will
be, in his refusal to cancel the bond,
then the Jenkins case will be buried
in the Mexican courts and the issue,
II is SO hoped. will be forgotten.
Diplomatic officials say that aside
from the extraordinary character of
the case, the last developments, which
turn on the police court judges re-
fusal to cancel the bond, show that
the inaction OF this Government re-
Gently Is not ineligible to diplomats
or other governments.
The failure OF the United states to
make any new move in behalf OF
Jenkins, coupled with the fact that
the trial court which was at frst
eager to try Jenkins Is now holding
IL in allegiance indefinitely, are facts
that can only be taken together to
understand the situation.

ministers of the gospel discussed to-
day the relations of Mr.. and Mrs.
Herley Spiker with Spikers English
sweetheart. 81.
"The girl should be sent back to
England to drink the bitter cup of her
folly" was the pronouncement of the
Rev. Keene Ryan. Ryan had high
praise for Mrs. Sp',.er. who endeavor-
ed to have the migration depart

baby to this col try and into the
Spiker family.

President Wilson, within the next

Industrial Crisis Seen.
Events in the Industrial world are
moving toward a crisis, according to
reports to officials here, which will
provide a severe test for the commits
sion's program.
Spring will bring period of strife
between labor and capital far more
intense than that of last. summer, 1t
is indicated. Both capital and or
sanixed labor a.e preparing for the
struggle. Radical leaders also arc
getting ready to take advantage of
the situation to stir up further dis
cord, according to reports received by
the Secret Service branches of the
Government.

break out with greater frequency, Of
ficials believe.
Big employers who long have

ting funds to fight strikes and carry
ON Iockouts, Government reports show.
Several of the big International
unions are piling up special strike
funds and working out new plans
for distribution of strike Dement'S.
Political strike Possible.
Government officials and employers
alike are waiting to see what moves
organized labor will take at it's an
nual convention. A fight to the finish
Is expected this year between the con-
servatives and radicals within the
movement. One question expected to
come up this year is that Of the po-
litical strike. The American labor
movement, unlike similar organiza-
tions In France and Italy. never has
countenanced the political strike. But
II the radicals gain control of the
movement hero, this policy will be
overthrown, It Ia expected.
Passage OF anti-strike legislation
BY Congress may bring the policy of
the political strike into the American
labor movement before its convention,
some labor leaders here say. One big
union already has taken a vote on a
general strike to be prepared in case
Congress passes tho Cummins rail-
road bill without striking out the
anti-strike clauses. This "a the In
ternational Association of Mschinists

labor leaders. The Labor party has
joined hands with Sim Fein through
out Ireland, including Ulster, where
the coalition captured a majority Of
the offices at the recent elections.
Only about a dozen of the more
than 600 Sim Feiners and members
Of their families taken in the coun-

Warships arrived in Dublin Bay
Friday night for the purpose, it is
understood, of carrying the prisoners
across the Irish Sea on their way to
wormwood Scrubs prison, England.
The prisoners were brought into Dub
lin yesterday ON special frains.
The raids were made under direc-
tion of the Dublin Castle authorities
and were conducted with the greatest
secrecy, not even the police being ad-
vised of the plans in advance. The
use OF soldiers only for the raids Is
believed to have been due to the in
creasing speed of Sim Feinism

Irish constabulary, which is almost
entirely composed of natives of Ire
land. although differed by British.
Many Escape Net.
Notwithstanding the secrecy, it 10
understood that only twenty Of the
Atty members OF the Dublin corpora
tion council marked for arrest were
captured. Twenty-Five were arrested
in Limerick city. County Claire, and
County Tipperary.
Dublin Castle officials declare the
raids were because of the popular de-
fiance toward the British government
in electing Sinn Fien mayors. sheriffs
and other officers, and for the flying
the Sim Fein flags.
Sim Fein leaders declare the raids
to have been an absolute failure ii
the intention was TO crush the Sim
