ter aftermath seemed In store should
the Democratic plan of open discus
sion be carried out.
Tentative agreement. Senator
Hitchcock said, had been reaehed by
the committee on the preamble and
12 of the fourteen proposed reserva
tions, tbe only subjects remaining
at issue being article 10 and tbe
Monroe doctrine. Senator Lodge
maintained that there were In ail
six of tbi 14 on which no agree
ment even of a tentative nature, had
been made.
Move is Surprise.
The move of the Democrats In
championing this reservation came
as a surprise, the, leaders on both
sides having indicated beforehand
that any decision on Article 10 prob
ably would be put over until next
week. In rejecting the proposed sub

would be considered In the article
10 reservation drafted by the Repub

Agreeing to finally disagree, tbe con
ference then broke up In less than
an hour after it had begun.
What happened was thus describ
ed by Senator Hitchcock in announc
ing the negotiations were at an end:
"We presented the Taft reserva
tion on article 10 as our proposition.
There was some conversation as to
its exact meaning. We urged them
to accept it or take a few days to
decide. But Senator Lodge said de
fiantly he could not accept It.
"We then asked them if they had
any counter proposal or would make
