The Re- servation, the last on the Committee list, was rejected by the Committee vote of administration democrats and the old reservation republicans 56 to 36. Cn the eve of the final voteon the Peace Treaty, President Wilson gave the Sen- ate to understand gtoday. that unless it modified the reservations aheady adopt- ed, he wouid take thz Treaty back to the White Hous~, and lock it up in his desk The first effect of the warning was to striffen the lines of both sides of the Senate fight. Then comprised proposals of many kinds were thrown out by the Democrats in a final effort to break into the majority programme. They found the Treaties Republican friends, all of whom had voted for the Reservations disposed to listen, but to promise noth- ing, and tonight the life of the Treaty seemed to hang on a siender thread.
