Washington, March 1.-Two more Of
the republican rescrva tons to the peace
treaty. one Of them affecting the bitterly
debated Monroe Doctrine provision. we're
re-adopted in the Senate to-day without
change and by greater majorities than
they commanded when originally pre-
scented last November
The Monroe Doctrine reservation. which
senators have been told Ii scarcely less
objectionable to President Wilson than

the majority. In November it got the
votes Of only eleven democrats and
was adopted 50 to SO.
Little debate attended the Senate's
action all senators apparently conced-
ing that the successive roll calls were
merely formalities to let everyone go
on record once more before tho final
deadlock which now generally il en-
pected to put tho treaty over into the
campaign. Old mumblinRs Of the bitter

Senators Beckham, Kentucky; Fletcher.
Florida. Pittman and Henderson. Ne
vada; King, Utah: Smith. Georgia and
Myers, Montana. This detection on that
issue was declared by the republicans TO
be a significant development in view Of
the recent limitations reaching demo-
cratic senators that the President had
singled out the Monroe doctrine and ar
ticle ten reservations as particularly OBJ
| jectionable.
II was over these two reservations that
the bipartisan compromise negotiations
came to grief. the republican leaders serv-
ing notice that they would consent to no
modification in either and the democrats
indicating that neither would be accepta-
BILE as they stood. On the democratic sub
stitute presented to-day ny Senator Hitch
cock Of Nebraska the party leader. the
vote was strictly on party lines except
for Senators Read. Missouri and Shields,
Tennessee. who voted with the republicans
in opposition.
! The domestic questions reservation
drew over to its support five democrats
who had not voted for it in November,
Senators Ashurst, Arizona: Pittman and
Henderson Nevada; Myers. Montana,
and Nugent, Idaho. On this proposition
