DATE OF PUTTING TRJCATT ' IN EFFECT UNCERTAIN PARIS, Nor. 20 The adjournment of the United States Senate for the session without ratification of the peace treaty created much surprise in peace eonfer ence circles, as despatches from Wash ington had suggested that some compro mise was probable. Henry White, of the American delegation, received the news from The Associated Press while he was attending the supreme council session to day. The members of the council with held comment. In French official circles, however, al though there was disappointment over the senate's adjournment with the treaty situation still unsettled, no surprise was expressed and it even seemed that the event had been exjiected. Appnrntly the situation had been dis cussed ami measures taken in advance to meet the eventuality, as Foreign Min ister I'icbon. who presided over the su preme council today, urged that the Yer saills treaty be put into force not liitor than December 1. His view seems to have prevailed, the council expressing the opinion that it would be desirable to put the treaty into effect on Deceinlier 1. In tb;s con nection the French foreign office was1 aware of the probability that the Anier ican senate would not meet again before the first week in December. No formal meeting lias yet been held between the German delegates,who arrived yesterday morning, and the representa tives of the allied powers concerning the promised protocal to the German peace treaty. It now seems unlikely that the protocol will be signed before the end of November, as the Germans have shown a j disposition to resist the provision re quiring them to replace the warships sunk when tlicir tleet was -scuttled at Sea pa Flow, and they have manifested a desire to argue the question. The fail ure of the allied and associated powers to reach an agrivineirt on the treaty is re ported here to have greatly encouraged tu Germans in their position. As the protocol must Ik- arranged be fore tne turmal announcement of the rati licatioii of the treaty by the three powers required to make it effective, the date of putt.ng the treaty into effect seems uncertain. French Deplore Failure to Ratify. PARIS, Nov. 19 While the failure of the American senate to ratify the German treaty has apparently alarmed the French it seemingly is not agitating the average Frenchman so much as the j'ear that the L'uited States may not ratify the joint a greement with England for the defense of France, which is uppermost in the minds of tue French people.

Republican Leader Lodge declared to day 'a voting constituted a final decision on the peace treaty Unless President Wil son circumvented the senate rules by withdrawing it and then submitting it again to the senate. Lu other quarters there was some difference of opinion, but the general sentiment seemed to be that there was only a slender chance that the treaty would come up at the begin ning of the next session of congress, be ginning next month. One effect of the senate's failure to ratify the treaty will be the continuation of various wartime laws and regulations at least until the new session oens. Among these is the wartime prohibition act. The resolution presented tonight to de clare a state of pence will come up at the beginning of the new session and is expected to start another stubborn light. The administration is understood to be opposed to such a method of legally ending the war. and in the background is a constitutional question as to whether Congress can do so by a resolution not re quiring the President's signature. The senate adjourned sine die at II :S o 'clock. Before adjourning, the senate coil-, firmed a number of nominations, but de ferred action until the next session on that of John Skeltoii Williams to tie comptroller of currency. It was suggested toiiiM .i.....ng dem ocratic senators hat President Wilson might be asked during the recess to feel cut the other powers as to their attitude on reservations with the i.leli of bringing the treaty to some sort of ratification after Congress reassemble. It was on a viva Mice vote that the treaty after being before the senate for many weeks was then laid aside. On Siiiatur Lodge's motion to take up legis lative business, no roll call was requested and the vice prcside.it ih-l.ired it a , ; 1 I by acclamation. Senator Lodge. ::fur adjournment to night, ihvlared "the treaty is dead so far as this senate is concerned.'' Republican senators said the senate need not advise the President of its action nor return the tieuty to him with formal notice. 'The President may withdraw it when the senate reconvenes," Senator Lodge -aid, ''and, of course, he can then re submit in the next session. "But the treaty is dead in this sen ate and they killed it as I told them they would if they voted against it."' Senator Hitchcock said that the treaty was not dead and that he presumed the President would re-submit it on December first, although he had no definite word t rom the President to that effect. He said he thought tiie republicans had work ed themselves "into a very awkward po sition" and split themselves in the sen ate sui.l the country. Madrid, Nov. Is. Twenty -one Moroc i'Oii triitesnieu were executed at Tetuau, east of Tangier, today, for killing their officers while in the service of tlie Span ish goveriimeut. ROTABLE SPECIAL SESSION.

Several important legislative measures went over for final action at the regular session The oil. coal, gas and phosphate land leasing bill was passed by both bodies and remains in conference, as does he Edge bill authorizing organization of corporations to help finance American ex ports trade. The Esch railroad bill passed the house and will be taken up, with the senate interstate commerce committee 's full at the December session. The house also passed and sent to tne senate lulls pro viding for development of water power projects, for establishment of a federal budget system and providing a pennan ent government shipping policy There were numerous investigations during the extra session. Besides the house inquiries into aviation, ordnance contracts and rther war department ae tivities, the senate investigated tn steel strike, Mexican situation, the coal situa tion and other matters The senate also authorized investigation of the print paper situation, bnt deferred the inquiry until the new session. Preliminary steps looking to revision of tariff and internal revenue laws also were taken, with general revision planned during the regular session The effort to repeal war taxes oit soft drinks and other luxuries failed. Permanent army legislation was ad vanced both by the senate and house mil itary committees, which complete! hear ings oi peace time army propoonls and are prepared to present bills ia the new session providing for a permanent army of about 300,000 men, as coin parol with the war deiiartment 's request for 500, 000 Bills to increase -pay of the navy' jer sonnel also are in readiness. Controversies during" the extra session resulted from opposition to senate con firmation of Attorney General Palmer and Comptroller of the Currency John Skel ton Williams The former was confirmed, but the latter 's nomination still is pend ing. The house refused to seat Representa tive Victor Berger, socialist, of Mil waukee, because of his attitude during the war, and ousted John F.

There was a full Hltewlniiee of the women of the Parish yestenlay afternoon when Mr. Harrisnn told liis congregation that the contribu ti.m of tbe women in this movement to vitalize nil the agencies that had been called iirTD being by the Church for the extension of the Kingdom was to come fr.un a realization on their part that the Christ as truly stood in our midst as when the blessed feet of Jesus pressed tbe sa cred soil of Galilee and that He was as truly suoaking to us.

That in this effort there was no at tempt to j;.. over the top as in the great drives to meet demands of our government but simply a mighty effort to pull Chris tians out of the rut of liikewarmness and indifTcrpiM e to the cause of Christ, who simply asked the righting of things that are wtontr.
