Not until the return of President Wilson from overseas, which is rot anticipated before the middle of .Tune, is the complete official text of the peace treaty ex peeled to reach the senate. It would not surprise senate leaders if the pr-sulen' appeared with it in person at the capitol before they have a real opportunity to study us multitudinous details. In the meanwhile senators, both Republicans and Democrats, who are avowed opponents of the proposed baue of rations, will piohahJy have to content themselves with tiry oratorical skirmishing on the senate floor.
