N. Y. ASSEMBLY VOTES NOT
 TO REINsTATE SOCIALISTS

Albany, N. r., Jan. 12.-An attempt to reinstate the five suspended social ist members of the assembly failed to- night. Assemblyman Charles D. Don ohue of New York. the minority leader moved reconsideration of the vote by which the suspending resolution was adopted, but the motion was lost, 33 tq. Il.
 Mr. Donohue first introduced a res olution calling upon the assembly to allow the socialists to resume their seats until such time as that body might by a proper vote sustain the contentious contained in the preamble nf the Adler resolution by which they were barred from further proceedings last Wednesday,
 Speaker Sweet ruled that the resolu- ton was not in order. in that under the rules only by reconsideration of the vote on the Adler resolution could the question be brought before the house.
 'The presumption has gone abroad throughout the entire nation MT. Donohue said, that the men who have been indicted by resolution present. ed by the majority leader have been convicted before they have had an op- portunity to he heard. Their consti- tuencies are deprived of representa- ton here, and I believe they ought to be represented"
 With the exception of eleven assem- blymen, all of Greater New York, those supporting the Donohue motion were democrats. Three democrats vot- ed .ir the negative.

Believes Treaty Will
 be Ratified by Friday
Opinion Expressed by w. J. Bryan That Senate Will Act in Time for First Ses- sion of League of Ma tions.

Lincoln, Neb., Jan. 12.-Wflliam Jennings Bryan told members of the Lincoln Commercial club here today it was infinitely more important that the treaty be ratified before January 16 with concessions by both sides in the treaty fight than to continue a state of war for fourteen months until the people could decide in favor of ratifi- cation at the coming election.
 MT. Bryan expressed the belief that the senate would ratify the treaty by next Friday so the United States could enter the league of nations at it's first session of that day.
 He denounced what he said were accusations of republican newspapers ahat there had been a split in the democratic party over the league cove nant and reiterated his denial of a break between himself and President Wilson over the treaty. Neither knew what was going to say relative to the treaty prior to the Jackson day ban quet recently held at Washington. he dclared

White, representing the miners, and Rembrandt Peale, acting for the oper- ators, agreed to take the inquiries of the operators under advisement and later to make a reply.
 Among the points raised by the op- orators questionnaire was whether the commission expected it's finding to be binding on both parties to the con- troversy; how it expected to enforce it's award: whether it considered it had power to adjust wages either upward or downward; whether it would determine coal mining costs; whether coal prices fixed to sustain it's awards would be made to expire simultaneously with the Lever food control act; and whether it proposed 10 provide for the introduction of
 modern machine devices in mines to
 lower cost of coal.
 Asked pointblank by President Rob- inson whether the commissions an- swers to the questionnaire would de- termine the attitude to be assumed by the operators toward the commis- sion, Mir. Brewster said he would pre- fer not to alEswer the inquiry until l he had consulted with his associates The operators eonferrcd later to l consider their policy and a s1Ib-cnm- mittee was appointed to draft a state ment to be laid tomorrow before the commission.

TO WITHDRAW AMERICAN
 TROOPS FROM SIBERIA

Washington, Jan. 12-Decision to withdraw the American troops from Siberia upon the completion of the re- patriation of the Czecho Slovak forces next month has been reached by the American government.
 The troops were sent to Siberia in accord with an agreement between the United States, Japan and the en- tente powers to aid the Czechs and protect the Siberian railroad and Japan has been notified blythe United States of the cancellation of that agreement insofar as it affects the presence of an American military ex- petition.
 When the Czeehs have been removed the American railroad commission, headed by John F. Stevens, which has been in Russia since before the fall of the former czar's government. will leave Vladivostok for home and the American soldiers under Major Gen eral Graves will follow as soon as transports can be made available. Presumably the same ships which are to take the Czeeho Slovaks across the
 Pacific will be used. Two of these vessels, the President Grant and the America, are expected to leave New York within a few days.
