MARINES
TO PENSACOLA
Reports are 1,5OO Will Be Trans
fered Here From Great Lakes
Region

Fifteen hundred marines are to be
transferred here indefinitely from the
Great Lakes region as rapidly as the
transfer can be arranged, on account
of advantages in climatic and health
conditions in Pensacola, especially at
this time when the flu situation is so
threatening in the north, according to
reports reaching Pensacola yesterday.
While official verification of the
reports were not obtainable here they
are generally believed well-founded,
and arrival of the men in Pensacola
to take up quarters on the reservatI tIon
may be expected any day, it is as
serted.
The transfer Of these troops will
mark another recognition by Z. ;.
military officials of the unsurpassed
advantages from standpoint Of health
and climatic conditions of this location
which its generally conceded on ac-
count of these and other natural ad-
yantages is destined to become one
of the most important army and nayai
bases not only on the gulf, but OF the
country. =.
If is understood that the removal
of these men at this time from the
Great Lakes region is simply TO relleVe
liability of congestion at certain posts
~ case of an outbreak of the fiu-
Ample quarters and facilities proNloeu
an the reservation during the war, 1t
i understood. are available for these
marines.

SALE OF BONDS
FORCITY DOCKS
CITY to Float Bond Issue For
Municipal Docks and Belt Line
Railway
SITE YET UNDETERMINED
Commissioners Yesterday Set
Date For Receiving Bids on
100000 Issue

Bonds issued by the city will be
floated to provide for the municipal
docks and belt line railway as a re-
suit of the meeting of the city commits
sioners held yesterday. The commits
sioners passed the resolution to ad-
vertise the bonds, bids to be receiv-
ed between the dates of February 5th
and March sth, both days inclusive.
The bond issue is for 100000.
Proceeds from the sale of the bonds
will be divided into two parts, S3OOOoO
to be used in the building of the docks
and 500. 900 to be used in building a
belt line railway, connecting the docks
with all railways now entering the
city of Pensacola.
Authority for the issuance of the
bonds was granted to the city in 1915
by the state legislature, and recently
the Kiwanis club asked the city COM
missioners to advertise for bids for the
sale of the bond issue. No official
action had been taken on the matter
until it came before that body yes
terday.
The present plans for the docks
is that they will be bui1t on the unit
plan and may De added to from time
to time if necessary with only the
additional expenses of the new units.
With only 100000 available after the
sale of the bonds this amount would
not complete municipal docks of suffi-
cient size for Pensacola in the future.
The unit plan docks will permit the
docks to be added TO as larger facili-
ties are needed.
Location for the docks has not been
decided upon as yet, but the city owns
most of the water frontage and has
several good sites for municipal docks.
They will probably be built in the
most convenient location to the rail-
roads entering the city and a belt line
railway built connecting these roads
to the docks.
Under provisions in the resolutions
adopted yesterday the call for bids
will be issued at once the bids to
be accepted by the commissioners on
and after February and until March
8. The commissioners will meet after
the last date and open the bids and
work will be started on the docks as
soon thereafter as plans and speci-
fications can be accepted.

COMPROMISE DOOR STILL OPEN
Bipartisan Committee Will Meet
Again Thursday to Attempt
Agreement
LITTLE HOPE EXPRESSED
Hitchcock Accuses Republicans
of Abrupt Change of Face in
Conference

Washington, Jan. 27-Notice was
served on republican leaders of the
senate today by Senator Hitchcock, of
Nebraska, the administration spokes-
man, that unless compromise negotia-
tions OF the peace treaty were contin-
ued. he would carry the fight to the
senate floor by moving to take the
treaty up there.
The notice was given in reply of
,he informal democratic compromise
committee to the refusal of the repub-
hcans to compromise on Article X
Of the league of nations covenant. Out
OF the discussion which followed,
came an agreement for the bipartisan
committees to meet again Thursday.
Thus the door to compromise was not
entirely closed.
Senator Hitchcock agreed that
meantime he would not move for SEN
ate action. He did not indicate the
democrats would recede from their
position, and Senator Lodge, the re-
publican lea der, said that after the
conference the republican conferees
had not changed their stand against
compromise on Article X and the Mon
roe doctrine
aThe democratic members of this
conferences have considered the an
nouncement made by Senator Lodge
that he and his associates are not
willing to consider any compromise
on the Lodge reservation concerning
Article x nor on that relating to the
Monroe doctrine said Senator Hitch
cock in the democratic reply to the
republican ultimatum.
ON reply. we desire TO say that we
entered upon this conference without
any reservations or restrictions in the
hope that we could compromise diff
ferences, not only on Article X, but
on all other reservations. We assumed
that the other side of this conference
had the same purpose.
.gTbe unexp pected interruption of the
conference and the decision to refuse
any compromise on Article X is all
the more surprising because it seemed
from expressions on both sides of the
table that we were close to possible
compromise ON this very important
reservation by means of the following
draft prepared by several senator's
and already assented to by most of
The members Of the conference on
both sides of the table before the in
terruption:
:" The United states assumes no OBJ
llrations to employ it's military or
naval forces or the economic boycott
70 preserve the territorial integrity or
ooliticaI independence of any otner
country under the provisions OF Aru-
r1a n or 10 employ the military or
naval forces OF the United States un-
17ar any article of the treaty for any
,,,,rnose. unless in any particular case
tbeAmongress, which, under the consu-
int has the sole power to declare
war or authorize the employment OF
the military and naval forces OF the
Trnited states. shall act or joint reso-
luton provide. Nothing herein shall
be deemed to impair the obligation IN
Articae XVI. concerning the economic
boycott.
