QUESTION ARISES MONDAY .Republican Leader Seeks to Fi Xovember 12 for Rollcall on Ratifying: German Fact. "WASHINGTON'. Oct. 31. Formal negotiations for an early final vote on ratification of the German peace treaty were launched today in the senate. Proposal that a final rollcall be taken Wednesday, November 12, was made by Chairman Lodge of the for eign relations committee, while Sena tor Hitchcock of Nebraska, adminis tration leader, presented a counter proposal to limit to 15 minutes each senator's debate on all questions be ginning next week, but without pro posing a definite date for the ratifi cation vote. Both proposals went over without discussion until Monday, the senate adjourning tonight until Monday without reaching a vote on any of pending amendments. Confidence of acceptance by all republicans of his plan to dispose of the treaty on November 12 was ex pressed tonight, by Senator Lodge Senator Hitchcock and other demo crats indicated they would stand on the plan to curtail debate without agreement upon a definite voting date. Limitation of the debate, the administration forces feel, would secure a final vote early in Novem ber. The proposals for ending the long drawn contest on the treaty came at the close of another day of routine debate on the motion of Senator L.a Kollette, republican, Wisconsin to strike out the labor section of the treaty. Senator Lodge's proposal for an Unanimous consent agreement for a vote on November 12 provides that the senate proceed at 5 o'clock on that date to vote on all pending ques tions and the resolution of ratifica tion without further debate. Senator Lodge's programme also proposes that from November 3 to November 9, inclusive, each senator be allowed only an hour's discussion on each amendment, reservation or other question and that the time be cut to ten minutes from November 10. The plan of Senator Hitchcock also t led for daily convening of the senate at 11 o'clock. The formal suggestions of the two leaders followed a futile informal parley between Senator Fall, republi can of New Mexico, and Senator Hitchcock for a final vote on Novem ber 10. DISLOYALTY IS CHARGED "Walla Walla Woman Flies Answer to Husband's Salt. WALLA WALLA, Wash., Oct. 31. (Special.)

She also asked the divorce. Stewart in his divorce claimed his money was his separate property, but Mrs. Stewart in her answer alleges that it is community property and worth more than $100,000. She charges that he made her an allowance of J10 a month and when his own relatives remonstrated he increased it to f 100 each quarter, cutting this off when he found she was saving some money. She says she was humiliated by his failure to buy Liberty bond's in pro portion to his means; that he drove away friends from their home and refused to allow her to accompany him to theaters. 3 APPLE CANNING IS -BEGUN The Dalles Flant to Put Up 7 5,000 Cases; 130 Women Employed.

ELECTRICIANS GET RISE ' Continued From First Page.) community, it is necessary that serv ice of expert and efficient character shall be constantly available, day or night, to meet and overcome accident or need. The record of the company and its employes through the years, indicates clearly that both have ful filled in the highest degree, their ob ligations to the public in this respect. Hazardous "Work Considered. "The board doe's not regard the pre sentments as to living costs wholly conclusive, inasmuch as the character of the service and the wage schedule should, we feel, be subordinated to the hazardous character of the service, which properly places the entire mat ter upon a higher plane. "Considering the equity of the workers' demands, question properly arises as to the ability of the com pany to meet the increased overhead represented by the awarded wage scale. Net earnings of the company indicate the light and power service is now and has been relatively profit able and that these increases will not appreciably affect them. The board does not regard, based upon the com pany's own showing, that rates for either light or power should neces sarily be increased ir order to meet the advances imposed herein, either in whole or in part. "Facing these conditions, the board feels that the employes are supported in their contention foi an increase in pay by existing living conditions, the decreased purchasing power of the dollar, the skill and training required in practically all the crafts involved, hazards of the service, the close rela tion which the service bears to the economic and industrial life of the community, and feels warranted in granting the schedule as set forth herein one which, while materially exceeding the proffer of the com pany, does not wholly measure up to the demand's of the employes, but one which the board, anxious to perform its duty fairly and justly and with a conscientious ' regard for every in terest concerned, has endeavored to place at such a figure as will accord the fullest possible measure of jus tice to all concerned." Here follows the scale as fixed by the conciliation board, in which wages for 80 different classes of elec trical workers are fixed. Among the entire number are the following, which are representative of the scale throughout. Wage Wage Present Asked by Fixed by Wuge. Employes, the Board Day. Day. Day.

The sympathy of the employers, their earnest consideration of every iDEue involved, the courtesy of the men, the mutual good feeling and kindly relationship which exists, in dicate clearly a spirit of 'loyalty arid co-operation inspiring to a degree."

Senator Don lan said that W. F. Carey was inter ested with him in this plan and that they expected to make $500,000 profit, but that Carey withdrew because of charges made by coast lumbermen and the matter was dropped. The cost to the government of the Washington developments was $23.- 285,000 and their salvage value was put at $3,900,000. Donlan said that $2,000,000 of the amount he and Carey were to offer was for the spruce rail road which cost $'.000,000. Ryan Is Corroborated. The witness corroborated testimony by John D.
