PRESIDENT PLAYED HIS HAND
AGAIN ON RESERVATIONS IN
NOTE TO HITCHCOCK, IS TALE
How Far Chief Executive Will Go When Fight
Comes Into Open Is Question; White House Feels
Lord Grey Should, Out Of Diplomatic Courtesy,
Have Consulted U. S. on Airing His Views.

Although there had been no formal
agreement between republican and
democratic leaders regarding mechanical
progress of getting the treaty back be
fore the senate, it is expected on both
sides that when it is called up it will be
referred to the foreign relations com
mittee. which immediately will report it
without any attempt to frame reserva-
tions.
Senator Hitchcock. the acting demo-
cratic leader. returning to Washington
after a weeks absence. called a party
conference for Saturday to consider
some of the points likely to be raised
when the treaty comes hack to the
senate floor. On the republican side
there were numerous consultations
among the leaders, but it was said TO
final plan was adopted.
No cIoture Conclusion.
Unless all indications fail the treaty
debate will begin without any limitation
on debate The question of a modified
cloture was taken up today at a meet
ing of the rules committee, but the only
action was reference to the whole
subject of a sub committee, which does
not expect to act until after considera-
ton of the treaty is well under way.
Some senator's believe that the re-
ported letter from the president to
Senator Hitchcock may be laid before
the democratic conference on Saturday
and may have an important bearing on
the trend of the treaty fight. In demo-
cratic quarters. however. there was no
confirmation Of the report and the
White House remained silent regarding
the presidents probable course.

floor of the senate has become the
burning question of the situation, now

he might play when the fight is re-

letter of Viscount Grey former British
ambassador to The United States. in

this government be consulted before
