'ABIlfiS fiFKAT it VOTE ON RATIFICATION TO3IORROW. iv- Washington, Mfch 1 The Re publican irreconcilables, combining with the Democrats, overturned . in the senate floor to-day the plan of Republican leaders to attach to the peace treaty a general declaration of American policy toward future Euro peanwaTs; The declaratory reservation, which would pledge the United States to re- Igard with "grave concern" any threat to Europe's pace or f reedonl, was voted down 25 to 39 after the irreconcilables' had tried in vain to amend it. Intended as an offset to the reservation denying ,the obliga tions of article 10, the proposal had been expected by the Republican leaders to attract many Democratic votes but on the roll call only two senators on the Democratic side sup ported. it. . Disposition of the reservation was regarded as clearing up the last doubtful issue of. the treaty fight and the leaders immediately made plans to bring a vote on ratification by Friday. By unanimous consent it was agreed to limit speeches on all other pending reservations to 15 :ninutes and to continue tomorrow's session into the evening if necessary to nut the ratification resolution in to 'inal form. About a dozen reser vat'ons remain to be voted on but it generally is conceded that none of them will be adopted. BICKETT "FXiOPS" OX AVOMAN'S SUFFRAGE. Raleigh, March 15. Although he has been and appears to be yet, at heart, oppose to woman suffrage. Governor Bickett. in arT open, let ter to-day to W. N.

"Gentlemen of Tarhelia. let's I be sports and say, 'Come along la j dies.' " This is a striking sentence .or the governor's letter, in which he states that ratification will be the best thing the Democratic party in North Carolina can do under the cir- cumstances. In his letter the governor referred to the special session "in July." It is understood that it has been agreed to call the session in July and the reference by the governor seems -to clear all doubt as to which month the solons will be called to Raleigh, BIDS ADVERTISED FOR HARD SURFACE ROADS.

Terms of Agreement- The agreement as set forth by Chancellor Kapp provides for a cabi net, which shall include "profession al ministers," or experts; elections within two months' for members of the reichstag and the Prussian na tional assembly and subsequently an election for "imperial president" by the people until which time Ebert shU nold lreins of Power.

Strike .Call Effective.

Labor fiercely resisted the usur- Pation of the reactionary govern- ment- Vast numbers of men, left their work, and serious disorders oc - . curred in various parts of the coun-l try.

Fire which burned three hours against the im- potent streams squirted on it by ter - ribly handicapped firemen, this af- ternoon destroyed the roof and a i portion of the third story of admin- istration building in the state pris- - on, causing a loss of perhaps $50, j 000 without insurance. The fire, originating in the top of , the building which fronts the South- i , I ern and Seaboard tracks, seems to started from defective wires, ,u u ur hiki- The RaIeigh nremen making a fine dagh to the trouble were forced to lay lineg of hose 500 feet lon and to place these under the railroad tracks Thus tne fire raged while tn . ey prepared and when the water ' waS turned on it was a feeble stream f. ot fnt KoMr tHo WaTO frnm th(5 main buildings.
