WILSON CABLES HIS REFUSAL Investigation Is Started With Unex pected Vigor by the Committee on Foreign Relations. Washington.—Out of a whirlwind of developments the senate got a copy of the peace treaty and, after a five-hour figbt. ordered It printed in the public record. At the same time it got under way the Investigation of how copies have reached private hands in New York by summoning to testify a half doxen of the country's leading financiers. The copy which went Into the rec ord was brought to this country by a newspaper man and was presented by Senator Borah, Republican, of Idaho, Just after the reading of a cablegram from President Wilson saying he could not without braaklng faith send the senate the text of the treaty. The effect of the day's history-mak ing developments was to clear the air on the much debated subject of pub licity for th.e treaty, to, widen the breach between the President and the senate majority, and to forecast a sen sational turn for the Inquiry into the manner by which copies of the docu mdht have become available to un authorized persons. Starting its Investigation with an unexpected vigor, the foreign rela tions committee, within a half hour after it convened, voted to call before It J. P. Morgan, H. P. Davison and Thomas F. Lamont, all of the Morgan banking house, Jacob Schiff, of Kuhn, Loeb & Co., and Paul Warburg, for merly connected with the same con cern, and Frank A. Vanderllp, former president of the National Olty bank. It then examined Frank L. Polk, act ing secretary of state, about the offi cial copies in the state department vaults.

Exceptions made by the President Included Importation or exportation of ruble notes or exchange operations with that part of Russia now under the control of the bolsherrlkl govern ment and exchange transactions with territories In respect of .which such transactions are at present admitted only through American relief ad ministration. PERMISSION MAY BE GIVEN GERMANY TO ENTER LEAGUE Pari*. —Germany, If she signs the peace treaty and giro* satisfactory guarantees that she will establish a stable government and morally carry out the provisions of the treaty, doubt lees will be permitted to become a member of the league of nations. The council of four at present has this momentous subject under consid eration and from unofficial report* thus far received there seemingly la no strong objection to Germany be coming associated with the other na tions In the league. If by contriteneas she proves her worthiness to member ship. By permitting membership to Ger many, the feeling prevails In peace conference circles that there will be no likelihood of a coalition between the country and Russia, which In the future might be a source of trouble, and that with Germany Inside the league could be kept more tractable than outside it.

SLEMENCEAU BHAKES FIST IN THE FACE OF LLOYD GEORGE Paris.—Acrimonious debates at se cret meetings of the big four regard ing proposed modifications of the financial clauses of the German treaty are threatening to disrupt the wbole fabric of the new world order erected with so much care during the last five months.
