however. have been successfully un-
loaded by soldiers.
The German agents even have gone
to the extent of approaching the men
and attempting to dissuade them
participating in military activity "for
the restoration Of the car"
In the absence of any control the
German agents and other agitators
have had a free hand. They have
sought to spread the belief that the
fact that American troops are still
aboard their transports Is due to
attempt Of the malcontents to bring
about a strike has failed to mate

Approves Polish Clubs Action.

In concluding his speech Deputy
Korfanty referred to the action of the
Polish Parliamentary Club of Vienna,
saying:
''In view of these conditions, and add
incidentally in view Of how the Prus-
sian government treats the Polish popu-
lation under the Prussians. no one will
wonder that the Polish Parliamentary
Club after deep deliberatiop came to the
conclusion that 1t cannot at this time
vote in favor of giving to this govern
ment that refuses Poles the right to
live the credits 1t asks for, and 1t seems
that as this is the first similar act in
our experience IN this parliament. we
are compelled not to vote for the bill
and we therefore will refrain from vot-
iEg on the bill"
These remarks were greeted with err
thusiastic> applause and 'bravos" by
the Polish deputies and radical socialists.
The leaven of discomfort sown by Presi-
dent Wilson's outspoken declarations for
q free Poland is working and the time
may come when, harassed by Foch on
the western front, Germany will not
have the troops to put down the insur-
rectfbns Of the oppressed peoples on the
eastern frontier.

PEKING, China. August 23.-The
omsk provisional government is now
| controlled by a composite force Of
Czecho-Slovaks and Russians. who are
working in the greatest harmony and
| daily extending the sphere Of their
influence and operations. Supplies Of
arms and ammunition are insufficient
| and this prevents them from making
an advance toward Moscow. They
hope the allies will make a strong. de-
termined advance from Manchuria
with the object of capturing Chita
and crushing the German prisoners of
| war and bolsheviki who are holding
positions between the Chinese frontier
and lrkutsk. This accomplished. it
would easily be possible to carve a
| way clear through to Moscow and
there join the Czecho-Sloval0m move
ment of central Russia.
Allied Forces insufficient.
! It now is clearly seen that the
/. present allied force is not strong
enough to carry out the necessary
operations, and therefore it is believed
| that Japan will be urged to send a
| stronger force. This, however, must
| be accompanied by contingents of the
| allies, else the suspicious of the Rus
| sian peasants will be aroused against
| the Japanese. Unfortunately Russian
| and Chinese suspicious have already
been aroused by Japan's attempt to
] obtain control of tho Chinese Eastern
railway. which brought about a pro-
test by China that was supported by
the United States and the allies.
| A Chinese contingent will leave
Harbin tonight for Vladiyostok. So
| far this force is Independent Of Jap
anese control. But Japan is enleavor-
| ing to enforce. Chino-Japanese
agreement whereby, the Japanese will

PEACE FARLEY
 DELEGATION IS
 STILL UNNAMED
Personnel of Mission Appar- ently Remains in Doubt, Though Selection of Sub ordinates Starts
CRv Review Leased Wlrel

WASHINGTON, Nov. g. - With President Wilson expected to sail for France within less than two weeks, so far as can be gathered, tlre person. mel of the American commission which is to represent this country at the peace conference is not complete even as to its principles. This is believed to be the explanation of the delay in making public announcement of the names of the commissioners, which the recent white house state ment said would be made presently"
 Meanwhile, attention is being given to the selection of the secretaries and attaches of the American mission and to the collection of the large quantity of historical and legal data that will be required. The nearest parallel to the approaching conference probably is to be found in the famous conference of Vienna of 1874, which gathered to rearrange the map of Europe following Napoleon's downfall. Accordingly, earnest study is being given to the preliminaries leading up 10 that conference and to its detailed proceedings as far as these have been preserved.
 The two Hague conferences Of 1897 and 1907 also developed methods of procedure and a wealth of subjects regarding the ideal relationship of the community of states that would be of assistance in arranging the program of proceedings at Versailles. For their special guidance the American commissioners will have at hand a vast amount of information regarding the smaller nationalities of Europe; the arbitrary divisions which have been made in defiance of racial ties and natural affiliations for purely political purposes and the latest con captions of the present desires of the oppressed races all representing the results of close study by some of Americas most eminent university men, directed by Colonel House.
 The American commissioners, in ad- dition, will have the benefit of ex- ceediRgly detailed and definite in structiOns on every conceivable point. These instructions are believed to be in preparation now by state depart ment officials

It is believed the evacuation of the Archangel district by the allies would probably result in the murder of the entire population friendly to the en- tente by the bolshevik, just as the elements antagonistic to the bOlshe- vik were slaughtered in the Volga towns evacuated by the Czecho-Slavs after the establishment of white guard governments under Czechs sup port A similar slaughter occurred at VOlogda, where entente supporters who rallied about the embassies were persecuted mercilessly after the de parture of the entente diplomats. All possible encouragement of the anti bolshevik organization has carried with it a responsibility which the military leaders are unwilling to overlook.

PIrrssuRG WINS GAME.

PITTSBURGH, Nov. 23.-The Uni versity of Pittsburgh football team defeated the team from Georgia Tech at Forbes field today, 32 to O. in a game marked by open work and little line smashing. The running of Davies the Panther left halfback. was sensa tional. Twice he took the ball from a Tech players punt and ran 90 and 55 yards, respectively, for two touch downs. He was the best ground gained seen at Forbes this year.
 The work of Easterday was only very little behind that of Davies, while McLaren as usual was success ful in getting through the center, al though Coach Warner worked that play much less than usual. Pittsburgh indulged in forward passing consid erably and very frequently gains were made at dangerous time for the wis. itors.

TRAINING SCHOOL TRAILS COLORS
 OF ANNAPOLIS
Great Lakes Players Win by Score of 2 to 6; California Beats Oregon; Other Foot ball Results
CRv Review Leased Wire)

ANNAPOLIS, Ind, Nov. 23.-In one of the most bitterly contested games ever witnessed on a local gridiron the eleven of the Great Lakes Naval Training station of Chicago trailed the colors of Annapolis Midshipmen in defeat here this afternoon by a score of : to 6, the narrow margin Of a goal kicked.
 The tars from the middle west turned what seemed like certain de- feat into victory in the last three minutes of the closing period of the game. when Eilson sprinted 90 yards to a touchdown. Blacklock, the big Indian. put up a brilliant defensive game at right tackle for Great Lakes and kicked the goal that sealed the fate of the Middies claim for football supremacy in the east.
 The game was thriller from start to finish and was marked by sen sational incident-one that is seldom witnessed on a college gridiron these days. The sensation was coupled with Eilson's brilliant dash to a touch down. After the Great Lakes runner had sprinted to within the 3O-yard mark of the Navy's goal line and the last of the pursuing tacklers had been disposed of by his interference, Saunders, one of the Middies first string substitutes, dashed from his seat on the bench out into the foot ball arena and brought the fleeing runner down from behind. General excitement prevailed for time, and some of the supporters of Great Lakes made a rush for the intruding Middy and began pummelling him, but quiet was soon restored and the game pro ceeded. Ellison had a clear field at the time and the officials, of course, ruled a legitimate touchdown.
 This incident came virtually as a climax to the stubbornness of the fight that each team put into the game. although there was no element of unnecessary roughness.

ILLINOIS BEATS CHICAGO.

CHICAGO, Nov. 23-The University of Illinois eleven, playing in its best style and fulfilling the expectations oi its adherents. today defeated the University of Chicago, 20 to 0, on Staga field. The result, taken in con nection with the defeat of Northwest ern at Iowa City, strengthened the Illinois claim to whatever champion ship nonOrs are likely to be evolved from the 1918 season.
 The local team showed little i'm provement over its previous appear ances. Shifts in its lineup, due to injuries of regulars, reduced its team play to a minimum and some of the substitutes were so green that they frequently violated rules. This was especially so on the part of the line whose holding cost Chicago a number of 15-yard penalties.
