spent nearly two hours in the wit

assembly sub-committee which is In

The former chancellor said he
sharply condemned the submarine
warfare but admitted the influence

man people were absolutely convinc

staff officers excessive, and mad

the rtaff to extend Its authority Into
the details of the department bu
reaus and of the line.
General Pershing expressed sever

WASHINGTON'. Oct. HI. Formal
negotiations fpr an early final vote
on ratification of the German peace
treaty were launched today in the
senate. 1
A proposal! that a final roll call
be taken Wednesday, November 12,
was made by Chairman Ixdge of the
foreign relations committee, while
Senator Hltchciock of Nebraska, ad
ministration leader, presented a
hcounter proposal to limit to 15 min
utes each senator's debate on all the
questions beginning next week but
without proposing a definite date for
the ratification vote.
Both proposals went over without
discussion until Monday, the senate
adjourning tonight until Monday
without reacnihg a vote on any of
the pending amendments.
Ijorige Confident.
Confidence of acceptance by all
Republicans of his plan to dispose
of the treaty on November 12 was
expressed 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 debate, the ad
ministration forces feel, would secure
a final vote early in November.
The proposals for ending the long
drawn out contest on the treaty came
at the close of another day of rou
tine debate on the motion of Senator
Lafollette, Republican, Wisconsin, to
strike put the labor section of the
treaty. -

During the night mixed reports
