Metz, Dec. 8.-After giving hearty
greeting to the French troops three
weeks ago, Metz today received Presi-
dent Poincare and representatives of
every branch of the French govern
ment.
The visit meant more than military
occupation. The people of Metz
looked upon it as a sort of official
entry into possession of the city.
They approved of it by the presence
of a vast throng that continually
cheered President Poincare, Premier
CIemenceau, Marshals Joffre, Foch,
Petain and Haig, and Gen. Pershing,
who were included in the official party
that gathered here today.
All the bunting in Metz was flying
when the presidential train pulled in
to the station. The girls of Metz,
wearing their national costume, were
banked on both sides of the street
from the station to the Esplanade,
Behind them were packed men and
women carrying the French flag and
wearing artificial tri-color bouquets in
default of real flowers.
All around the square OF the rs
planade were great grandstands, while
crowds covered the housetops and
