Dominion Steamship company, at his
New York office: ut is announced in to-
days Times Dispatch that the James

Democrats Give Strong
Support to the Lodge
Resolution.
CONGRESS TO ACT
UNDER THIS RULE
Debate On Article x Of
League Covenant Res

Laid Over.
BY JAMES II. soURsE

Washington, Feb. 26.--The Lodge
resolution to the peace treaty-which-
prohibits the acceptance by the
United States Of mandate over any
other nation without an Affirmative
act of congress--was re-adopted to-
day by the senate as a part OF the
resolution of ratification by the vote
of So to T.
There was veritahle landslide OF
Democratic votes to the reservation,
there being 30 Democrats and 80 Re-
rublicans on the ma tority side. The
Senator'S Jones, New Mexico: Ken
drick, Wyoming: Walsh. Montana,
and Williams, Mississippi.
Senator Hitchcock, the Dem ocratic
leader, vas present, but abstained
from voting.
The reservation adopted Is as fol-
lows:
mo mandate shall be accepted by
the United States under Article %,
part one, or any other provision Of
the treaty OF peace with Germany
except by action of the congress of
the United States
ARTICLE X POSTPONED
This is the second reservation
adopted thus far by the senate in the
renewed struggle for ratification. the
reservation on withdrawal from the
week. The reservation on Article X
of the league covenant. number two
or the list, which is one of the CHIEF
stumbling blocks in the way Of rat
ihcation. was temporarily laid aside
at tho opening of tooay'g session on
Senator Lodges motion.
It is probable similar action will
be taken on the Monroe Doctrine res
srvation when It lis reached. so that

be disposed OF before the senate sat

DEMOCRATS WITH LODGE
In todays vote, however. the bulk
OF the Democrats ''wert along with
Lodge, sweeping aside all considera-
ton as to whether or not the res
trvstion would be construed at the
White House as a reservation of the
''interrretative' sort. which is the
only Find the president has said he
will accept
1t Is entirely unlikely that when
the voting on the essential reserva-
tons begins so large a number of
Democrats will be found voting with
Senator Lodge.
Neither Senator Hitchcock nor
Senator Underwood believes that
thirty Democrats Will vote for the
Lodge reservation on Article X, nor
upon the reservations relating to the
Monroe doctrine and the equality OF
voting in the league. If they did so
the chances for ratification would be
good.
When reservation Number 3 had
been adopted, Senator Lodge called
up Number 4, which reserves to the
United States TO pass upon all
domestic questions. He suggested
two amendments. the more important
of which was to insert the word "in-
