BUTTER, EGGS, AT DIZZIEST HEIGHTS A new high mark in the retail prices for butter and eggs was reached Monday on Richmond markets, when retail grocers announced prices of 78 cents a dozen for eggs, and 85 cents a pound for creamery butter. The price paid the farmer for butter fats is 75 cents a pound, or an increase of 2 cents since Saturday. These prices are general throughout the middle west, and the advancing produce market is blamed by some Richmond dealers dealers for the enormous rises. Another dealer lays the blame for the high price of eggs to the public's demand for fresh eggs, and as lone as this demand lasts, the price will advance. Storage eggs, which will mostly prove fresher than the so-called fresh eggs, would be selling for about 10 cents a dozen cheaper if so sharp a discrimination was not shown The high price or creamery butter is attributed by one dealer to the enormous demand made upon the milk supply by the manufacturers of condensed milk. These manufacturers are hard pressed to meet the demands of foreign buyers for American condensed milk, and will pay better prices for the milk than the creameries can afford to pay. No immediate reduction is looked for by dealers. They say that the American public is prosperous and will pay the prices. British Claim (. S.

Unless this rule is observed, the necessity for lightless nights may occur. Street lighting has been cut consid erably. The ornamental lighting on Main street has been cut to one-half the former amount, and orders have been issued that no street lights be lit in residence districts on cloudless, moonlight nights, except around railroad yards, and on Main street.

TREATY WILL BE REJECTED SAYS WILSOfl Lodge Reservations Mean Turndown, Says President in Conference With Democratic Leader.
LONG FIGHT EXPECTED (By Associated Press! WASHINGTON, Nov. 17. President Wilson will pocket the peace treaty, if it contains the Lodge reservatiors. he told Senator Hitchcock at a conference today at the white house. "The president had read and considered the Lodge reservations'." Senator Hitchcock eaid. "and he considers them a nullification of the treaty, and utterly impossible." The program outlined bv Senator Hitchcock, after he had seen President Wilson last week, will be carried through in the senate. Mr. Hitchcock said. This contemplated defeat of the ratification resolution, with the Lodge reservations attached, and the offering of the resolution for ratification with reservations. With the defeat of this resolution a dead-lock would follow the compromise sought. President Much Improved. Senator Hitchcock was with the president for an hour. "I find the president is very much improved since I saw him last." the Senator said on leaving the white house. "He looke better, talks better, and is much more aggressive. I find that he has read and considered the Lodge reservations and that he considers them a nullification of the treaty, and utterly Impossible." "Did the president tell you what his course would be In the event the Lodge reservations are accepted by the senate?" he was asked. "The president will pocket the treaty," was the reply. "Even if reservation 15 is stricken out?" "Yes. That would make no differ ence in the president's decision." Senator Hitchcock did rot interpret the president's stand to mean that the treaty was dead, declaring be still believed a compromised reservation program could be worked out. Preamble Objectionable, The preamble of the committee resolution, requiring that the senate reservations must be accepted by three of the other great powers, was said by the Democratic leader to be particularly objectionable to the president who regarded it, he declared, as "killing the treaty abaolntely." He indicated also that the article X reservation was entirely unacceptable to Mr. Wilson, but said the executive might be willing to accept some of the other proposals on the committee program As soon as he left the white house Senator Hitchcock began plans for a conference of Democratic friends of the treaty. It was said it might be held tonight. The plan at first had been to have the mild reservation Republicans In the conference, but it is understood they informed the Democrats they were unwilling to negotiate until the committee program had come to a vote. The outcome tn the senate hinged today upon eleventh-hour efforts to bring a compromise between the administration forces and the mild reservatkraists on the Republican side of the senate. Unless such a compromise could be reached, it was predicted in all quarters that the treaty would be rejected The situation also was beclouded by a parliamentary disagreement, VicePresident Marshall and the Democratic leaders, holding that a leas drastic ratification resolution can be voted on after one has been defeated, and the Republicans declaring they have he majority to override any such effort. Many reservations by individual senators are to be considered after completion of the committee program, but with cloture In effect it was thought a final vote would not be long delayed. Most senators predicted it would be reached tomorrow or Wednesday. SEMANS TO PREACH TO UNION MEETING The Rev. R L.
