The Italian Foreign Minister, arrived
in London this afternoon to attend
preliminary meetings In preparation
for the peace conference and were
received with one of the greatest
demonstrations that London has seen
during the war.
The Frenchmen were taken aback
by the tumultuous applause. AS
Marshal Foch's carriage drove out of
the railroad station so thunderous
an outburst greeted him that he was
unable to salute In acknowledgment.
A mist gathered in his eyes for one
supremely human moment: then he
became the soldier again and precise

The setting of the reception on tho
station platform outdid a hundred
fold in the splendor OF its pageantry
any reception that London has ever
accorded to a visiting sovereign. In
some wonderful way Charing Cross
had been transformed into a riot Of
color. At each end of the station
hung two enormous Union Jacks and
twenty PAGES from the 500 foot GRIM

double line of khaki clad men. the

A few minutes before 9 o'clock a
huge hollow square was formed. lined
by the multi-colored uniforms of the
officers who came to greet the great
French General. Soon afterward the
historic train, with a tiny tricolor on
the engine, drew in.
First to alight was Marshal Foch.
The Duke OF Connaught stepped for

him. At that moment Premier Glenn

Treves is situated on the right bank
OF the Mosclle River fifty seven miles
southwest OF Coblenz, 1t is perhaps
the oldest town in Germany and is rich
in Roman relics. Among the main
objects OF interest in the town are the
cathedral, which is one OF the Oldest in
Germany, and the Provincial Museum,
with a fine collection of antiquities.
Treves became an archiepiscopal see
in the ninth century and the Arch
bishops rose to the position Of princes
and occupied a place among the i'm
perial electors. Near the close of the
sixteenth century it was recognized as
a free imperial city and the ecclesiasti-
cal principality was wiped out in the
French Revolution. The city and the
territory surrounding il were assigned
TO Prussia by the Congress Of Vienna.
The population at the start OF the war
was about $4,000.
