Anxious to Give Attention to Article Ten. ‘Washington, March 7. — Varlous ! methods of hastening action on the peace treaty were discussed at con- ferences among republican and demo- cratice leaders today as a resuit of the apparently universal sentiment of the leaders that nothing in the direc- tion of compromise would be gained by further delaying the decisive. vote. It was said no final conclusions were reached, though it was predicted in some quarters that tomorrow's ses- sion would see a formal agreement to | limit debate on the gix reservations which remain to be disposed of un der the present programme before the senate gives its attention to Arta cle Ten. It generally is conceded that by the decision on this article the treaty will stand or fall, and all of the leaders have said they were anxious to get through with details and start the fight on the main is- sue. The plan of the irreconciliable op- ponents of ratification to move to; sweep all the other reservations aside and take ‘up Article Ten tomorrow may be abandoned if some other method of hastening the final vote is agreed upon.

The idea of the conference, it is in- dicated, is to impress upon the Turks that the world will not tolerate massa- cres, such as those of the Armenians in Cilicia last month. This has been unsuccessfully attempted through threats from the conference that un- less the massacres ceased the peace terms for Turkey would be much more severe than otherwise, and now tHe allies plan to make some sort of a military demonstration at Constanti- nople.
