TTASHINGTON. March 20. After a
troulled eicht months' sojourn in the
Semite, the treaty with Germany was
back in the keening of President
Wilson tonisht with a note appended
.'tying that ratification had been re
fused. What the president's next move
would be remained conjectural. The
general fcelinff of officials about the
capitol was that Mr. Wilson probably
would let the treaty lie on his desk
whiie the "bitter controversy it has
raised is fought out in the political
Campaign.
The treaty was taken back to the
the. day by a
from
- ..' White Hnusc early in
. : hew of official and messengers
- ,. tiie senate, in pursuance of an order
' adopted last ni'lit after a fourth vote
..' -. on ratification had failed to muster
the necessary two-thirds. It was de-
liverrd to Secretary TumiTUy. who re-
'. , ceipted for it in the name of the
... president.
It eon II Movement In Started.
Scarcely had the bulky document
' passed physically out of the capitol
". ' building when some of the senators
' ' who worked for ratification began a
. -.'"'; movement to recall it and try once
' , more for a compromise. However.
" ' '; the prediction of leaders on both
'. sides was that no proposal for an-
..- .' other reconsideration would take so
rinnq form.
' The unsettled state of senate
rtheless had the effect
' . 'of slowing up the, plans of the repub-
'". ' lican lea'lers for passage of a decla
' ration of nraie. and it was dccnled
9rmr m m v conferences that the reso
lution for that purpose probably
" ". would not be urged before late next
;.' ' . meek.
' V In making this decision the ma
, " Jority managers in the senate are
'...'' understood t' have been influenced
in part by undetermined factors in
'" - the house, which also would have to
. . . act on a peace resolution and whose
leaders balked at a similar proposal
.- . last December.
: ..... . Senate ot in Smlon.
During the day the senate was not
" V . In session, but the nuestion of a peace
declaration was raised in the house
'- '. v M- Hepresentative Tinkham. republi
' - . Massachusetts, who introduced a
. .iaratory resolution and had it re-
'. . ' ferred without debate to the foreign
1 -. affairs committee. In its general
. provisions it follows the resolution of
'.- .. ; Senator Knox, republican. Pcnnsyl
i . vania. which is backed by the rupubli
can senate leaders. Both provide for
the repeal of the declaration of war,
for certain settlements with Germany,
fs and for a declaration of international
- . policy.
"..'. ; Intil some affirmative action is
;i . taken by congress-or the president to
'. f end the war status legally, the technl
'. '-' cal position of the country remains,
;Vi; officials say. just what it was the
'' .. ciay the armistice was signed.
Srvernl I'ounni Open to W Hmoii.
i Three courses are open to Mr. Wil-
son. He can return the treaty to the
" : senate, in which case the republican
leaders declare it will be pigeonholed
indefinitely; he can do nothing, while
--,.! he waits for the verdict of the people
. '' in the political campaign, or he can
i , . treat tne t.-eatv as a dead letter, so
. . far as international diplomacy is con-
. cerned, and proceed to negotiate
' separate peare with Germany, a. step
which he alone under the constitu-
- . , tion could Initiate.
' . War legislation continues in force
'., ". and under the war department in-
'. . terpretation of the .situation the pres-
, -. ' ident retains his war power as com-
'if mander-inr hief to keep American
t,'-."J troops at whatever ports in Germany
"y - he thinks necessary to enforce the
' '. armistice terms.
-. The president has expressed em-
"- ' .' phatic disapproval of securing a tcch-
, ' nical peace status by any method ex-
L: .' . . cept ratification of the treaty. Sen-
- ators generally do not believe he has
.'... altered that position, and republican
!'' senate leaders confidently expect that
. ' if they pass a peace resolution he will
" veto it.
"f I'aet Returned o IVIIfton.
".'. ' Senate officials who have had
.-' ' physical custody of the treaty since
V. July 10. when I'resident Wilson him
self carried it into the senate
chambr'rs. lost no time in obeying
o return it to the Whito
mpanied by several mes
sengers. Goorge A. Sanderson, secre
tary of the senate, took it to the ex-
ecutive office early this morning and
, had to wait nearly an hour before
Mr. Tumulty appeared to receipt
for it.
The big volume, wrapped in brown
.'' japer and bound up with red tape, at
.! first was taken into the office of
'.J Kudolph Forester, executive clerk of
.', the White House, but Mr. Sanderson
; , declined to leave It until he had a
r receipt signed by the secretary to the
president. When Mr. Tumulty arrived
- he went for a talk with the president.
Almost an hour elHpsed before he re
r ., turned to find the treaty on his desk
and Mr. Sanderson and his assistants
V waiting.
-l.rt It Lit." Says Tumult. v.
After the receipt had been signed,
r- one of the messengers took up the
. treaty to band it to Secretary Tu
'i multy. but the latter demurred.
. "Let it lie there." said Mr. Tumulty,
and the delegation from the senate
departed.
"Whichever of the three courses
Mr. Wilson chooses, a long dt:lay
seems inevitahle before he can bring
the rautitry to a full peace status,
and the state department holds that
wtil such a status is attained the
present diplomatic and trade relations
with Germany might be continued.
There is an American commissioner
In Berlin- representing the United
Plates unofficially, but he is not re
garded as having diplomatic status.
All negotiations of a diplomatic char
acter are .conducted through the
Spanish ambassador there. In the
Consular field, too. the United States
Btill is represented in Germany by
Suaiiisb agents.
Revival Hxpeeted to Collapse.
The move of some senators to re
call the treaty and try auain for
ratification was in a nebulous stage
tonight and the general prediction
was that It would collapse before the
senate meets Monday.
ome of the mild reservation repub
licans are understood to have with-"held-
their decision regarding a peare
declaration until there was no possi
bility of a reconsideration of the rat
ification vote. There also was some
j y uncertainty- among the republican ir
' if reconcilables. some of whom do not
" r BnnmvA nf that Kprtinn of thm Vnn
the principle of an international court
and disarmament.
! The republican leaders, however,
hoped in the end to agree on some
form of peace which will command
solid republican support.
Pence Declaration la Anted.
The text of Mr. Tinkham'a resolu
tion follows:
"Resolved, By the senate and house
t representatives of the United
States of America in congress assem
bled, that the joint resolution of con-a-ress,
passed April C, 1917. declaring
'a slate of war exists between the
imperial German government and the
government and people of the United
States, and making provisions to
presecute same,' be and the same is
hereby repealed, provided, however.
that until the German government
notifies the government of the United
States that it acquiesces and confirms
irrevocably to the United States all
undertakings and covenants con
tained in the treaty of Versailles,
conferring upon or assuring to the
United States or its nationals any
rights, powers, or benefits whatso
ever, and concedes to the United
States all rights, privileges, indem
nities, reparations and advantages
to which the United States would
have been entitled were it a ratify
mg party to the said treaty, th
president of the United States shall
have power by proclamation, to pro
hibit commercial intercourse betwee
the United States and Germany an
the making of loans or credits, an
the furnishing of financial assistanc
or supplies to the German govern
ment or the inhabitants of Germany
directly or indirectly, by the gov
ernment of the United States or the
inhabitants of the United States,
romrnon Sfnw,"1 SayM Tinkham.
"Any violations of the prohibition
contained in such proclamation by th
president shall be punishable as pro'
vided in section 16 of the trading
with the enemy act, approved Octobe
6, 1317.
"It is further resolved that it shal
be the declared policy of the United
States that the freedom and peace
Europe being again threatened by
any power or combination of powers,
the United States will regard such
situation with grave concern and will
consider what, if any, action it will
take in the premises."
In a statement explaining his reso
lution, Mr. Tinkham. said:
"Common sense and the logic of
events dictated this course much more
powerfully now than when the treaty
failed last November."
Failure of the senate to ratify the
treaty, it was learned today, will net
halt the .negotiations between the
United States and the allies on the
Turkish settlement.

Constitutional Amendment Sug

Majority of Both Houses.
NEW HAVEN, Conn., March 20
W. J. Bryan, in an interview on the
rejection of the treaty, today said:
"Defeat of the treaty is a colossal
crime against our country and the
world. If we allow a minority of the
senate to dictate the policy of the
senate on this momentous question.
we betray democracy and turn our
faces backward toward arbitrary
power, and arbitrary power as exer
cised by a few is scarcely less hateful
than arbitrary power as exercised by
one.
"The action of the senate is the
more disgraceful because the rejec
tion was brought about by a union
between a group of democrats and the
irreconcilable foes of the treaty,
whom the democrats have been de
nouncing for eight months. If the
action of the senate is permitted to
stand we invite confusion at home
and chaos abroad.
"But the action of the senate should
not be allowed to stand as the verdict
of the nation. The majority in coni
gress should assert itself at once,
first, by declaring the war at an end:
second, by declaring in favor of the
nation's participation in the league of
nations on such terms as the majority
shall agree upon; third, by proposing
an amendment to the constitution,
permitting a majority of the senate
and house to ratify a treaty by joint
resolution and in the same way define
the nation's foreign policy, thus mak
ing it as easy to end a war as to
begin it.
"In the meantime, the people should
wire and write to senators and the
president urging ratification. A
change of four votes will be sufficient."

RAIDS HELD BENEFICIAL
Revolution in United States Avert
ed by Arrests, Says Johnson.
NEW YORK, March 20. Only the
recent "red" raids and deportations
of alien radicals saved the United
States from an 'organized attempt
at revolution," Representative Albert
Johnson of Washington, chairman of
the house committee on immigration
declared in an address today. He de
clared a law to "provide punishment
for wilful incitement to sedition
would do more than anything else
o make conservatives feel safe as
to the future and let the radical ele
ment know just where it can go
without getting beyond bounds.
'The greatest misfortune the Upited
States has," he continued, "is that
aliens here from all the countries
participate in our ' political affairs."
'Such participation, . he added, is
a right which should belong only to
itizens."
SEATTLE SLATER MISSING
WARXIXG SEXT TO WATCH FOB,
MAX IX 'BLUE BUG."
Autoist Thought to Possess Re
volver Similar to That Used in
Killing Is Traced South.
SEATTLE, Wash., March 20. (Spe
cial.) The slayer of Walter Bagnell,
clerk in the Aero Alarm company
here and former navy man, who was
shot and killed in the woods near
Des Moines February 29, headed for
the south in an automobile, depu
ties learned today, and the police of
southern Washington and Oregon
have been asked to look for him.
The slayer is said to have driven
a "blue Chalmers bug" machine and
had been traced through various coast
cities toward the south. Bagnell, it
is believed, was lured to the lonely
spot where his body was found on
the pretext of showing him the oper
ation of an automobile, which he was
considering purchasing. y ' , -
Late on the night of March 1 a
tall dark man in a "blue Chalmers
bug drove up to an oil station in the
outskirts of Tacoma. He wore a sot
dier's overcoat and on the seat be
side him was a 32-caliber revolver.
The station-tender noticed the gun.
The shot that killed Bagnell was from
a ..12 revolver.
The next trace of the man and the
blue bug was picked up in Yelm, lust
across the Thurston county line. He
was seen there the night of March 8.
oner week after the murder and his
visit to Tacoma.
The same night he was at Rainier,
a short distance from Yelm. He
stopped there to buy a package of
cigarettes and is reported to have
headed south.
