No. 1,5O2 II street, n. W.,
Washington, ID. G., Wednesday.

Brought virtually to a standstill in theii
efforts to reach definite basis of com
promise on the peace treaty by the unwill'
ingness of the leaders on either side &c
yield on any vital point at issue, the nu'
merous negouators are vaguely hoping to-
night that something may occur at the
Democratic leadership caucus tomorrow
to revive their spirits.
Close friends OF Senator's Hitchcock, oi
Nebraska, and Underwood. of Alabama,
contenders for the leadership of the mi
nority. want to Keep the treaty issue out
of that fight. In their interviews for pub
lica tion the Democratic Senators are say
ing that the treaty situation is not figur-
ing at all in the leadership contest. Blu,
privately one Of the strongest arguments
being used against Senator Underwood Is
that his election would mean the repudia-
ton of President Wilson's stand agains,
any compromise on the treaty.
Undoubtedly the success of Senator
Hitchcock in the caucus would retard the
compromise efforts, for he stands firmly
against any compromise not acceptable 10
President Wilson.
A few weeks ago Senator Underwood
boldly announced in the Senate his will.
ingness to drop the covenant Of the League
of Nations temporarily from the treaty II
that was the only way to obtain resto-
ration OF the peace status. The hold which
President Wilson has upon the Demo-
cra tfo eide of tho ganafe fu aiou,r, ~, AZ a
fact that not few Democratic Senators
who fully agree with Senator Underwood
regarding the treaty are nevertheless un-
willing TO vote for peace without the
League because they arc afraid OF the
effect upon their political careers Of d.
rectly opposing tho President. For the
same reason they are hesitating to vote for
Senator Underwood in the caucus lest
they be charged with aiming n blow at tho
President.
Close Fight for Lesdership.
The leadership fight is very close. To-
night the indications are that Senator
Hitchcock will be chosen by a margin OF
one or two votes. The Underwood faction
did not make any definite claim OF votes
The Hitchcock managers claimed twenty
four votes, exactly the number necessary
TO win.
