Washington, Jan. 10.-The fortunes
of the treaty of Versailles became
even more unsettled when, on top Of
President Wilson'S Jackson day pro-
nouncement for taking the question to
the people in she political campaign,
and William J. Bryan's opposition to
such a course, Democratic and Repub-
lican friends of the treaty ir the Sen
ate renewed determinedly their effort
to secure compromise ratification.
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, the
acting Democratic leader, said he did
not regard the Presidents declaration
as calculated TO cut off any reason
able compromise and predicted ratifi-
cation before the campaign was under
way. The mild reservation group of
Republicans took much the same view.
and the group of Democrats who have
been urgent in their demand for
compromise declared their position
was in no way altered
Discussion of compromise reserva.
tions accordingly went forward as ac-
lively as before, conference being
arranged on the Republican side to
take up in detail the set of reserva-
tions submitted recently by Senator
Kendrick of Wyoming and other Dem
ocrats. 1t was said counter propos-
al might be drawn up within a few
days and all of the parties to the ne
gotiations seemed hopeful that an
agreement ultimately would be
reached.
Among the treaty's irreconcilable
foes, however. the Presidents stand
and the statement of Senator Lodge OF
Massachusetts, the Republican Senate
leader, that he would "most cordially
welcome the treaty as n political is
sue, We're hailed as having definitely
put the question into the campaign
This group consistently has predicted
failure for the compromise negotia-
tions. and they were more positive
than ever that there would be no
agreement.
In announcing that the compromise
plans would go ahead. Senator Hitch.
cock said that of course the Demo.
Gratis could not agree to any compro.
mise vitally impairing the treaty and
that there would be an endeavor to
work out such reservations as the
President could accept Some other
Democrats were not so emphatic on
| that point, however, declaring pri-
vately that they would take the best
compromise that they could get and
then put the responsibility straight up
to the White House

ParIs.-At conference of allied
legal experts to consider plans for the
trial of the former kaiser of Germany
the point was raised that the non
ratification by the United States of
the treaty of Versailles created diff
ficulty which must be solved. The
treaty says the allied and associated
powers" will arraign William III of
Hohenzollern for the supreme offense
against International morality. There
fore, lnasinuch as "the allied and as
socated powers have put the treaty
into effect. it is considered as beyond
question that they can demand extra
dition from Holland. But the treaty
specifies that the former kaiser is to
be tried 'by court composed of five
judges, one appointed by each of the
following powers: The United States
of America, Great Britain, France,
Italy and Japan" Thus the question
of the legal powers of such n court
lacking the American member arises.
This is very similar to the question
of the legality of the Rhineland com
mission without an American member.
This was solved by simply emitting
the American from the commission
until America shall have ratified.
Probably a similar decision may be
taken as to the court to try the kaiser.
although it might be recalled that the
decision affecting the Rhineland com
mission was taken before the treaty
came into effect.
The supreme council is busy arrang-
ing for calling on Germany to hand
over the accused German officers for
tral The allied list of 1,20O has been
reduced at the suggestion of England
to $50, including the crown prince of
Germany and Prince Rupprecht of Ba-
varia. The request to Holland to
hand over the kaiser is also being
framed and it is stated on the best
authority that this will be sent to the
Dutch government in short time.
1t is understood that the list of Ger
mans demanded will not be made pub
lie until the Berlin government hus
exercised its best efforts to corral
them.

Albany. ~ Y, Jan. s.-Five Social
list members of the Assembly of the
New York State Legislature were de-
MED their seats at the lower branch's
opening meeting of the 1920 session. A
resolution questioning whether they
could be loyal to their oaths of office
when bound to act subject to instruc-
tions of the Socialist party. was quick
ly passed 40 to 6 after Speaker Sweet
with dramatic suddenness ordered the
sergeant-at-arms to bring the Socialist
members before the bar of the House.
The Socialists must now prove their
fitness to their seats before a tribunal
selected by this Assembly.
The session was dragging as the
clerk was calling for routine resolu-
tions when Speaker Sweet interrupted
him. The Socialists, August Claessens
and Louis Waldman of New York coun-
ty, Samuel A. Dewitt and Samuel Orr
of Bronx county and Charles Solomon
of Kings county, were ushered before
the speakers desk in the pit OF the
House.
You are seeking seats in this body
you who have been elected on a
platform that is absolutely inlmical to
the best interests of the state of New
York and Of the United States" the
speaker said.
That platform is the doctrine of
the Socialist party. 1t Is not truly
political party, but is a membership
organization admitting within its runks
enemy aliens and minors
Quoting from the section of the con
stitution of the Socialist party that re-
qures all members to be guided in all
their political actions by the constltu-
lion and platforms of the party, the
speaker continued:
at is Interesting to note that Lud-
wig G.. A. X. Martens, self-styled So
Wet ambassador became ii member
of the Socialist party upon his entry
into this country and took part in its
deliberations. 1t is therefore quite evil
dent that you, in spite of your oath Of
