mo Smile Of Triumph, hut Could
Discern their Hatred"

Amsterdam, Nov. 29.-The armis-
tice conferences between the Getnan
delegates and Marshal Foch and his
associates early this month were car
ried out in the most business-like
manner possible, and apparently
without notable incidents, according
to a long account OF the conference
given the Berlin Vossiche Zeitung by
member Of the German party.
After the French met the German
ten hours in automobiles to an APP
pointed rendezvous.
1T seemed to me-" says the nara
tor, "that the drive was intentionally
prolonged in order to carry us cleav
through the devastated provinces and
prepare lis for the hardest conditions
which hatred and revenge might de-
mand. One Of the Frenchmen point
ed TO a heap Of ruins, and as he did
SO, said dramatically, Behold st.

1--WE entered train with blinds
drawn In the evening and awoke in
the morning in the midst OF the for
est of Compeigne, surrounded by SOL
1ieTs.
There were two trains--one oc-
cupied by Marshal Foch and his staff
and the other by the Germans. In
these we lived, worked and nego-
ffo$
thing in abundance; there was moth
ing with which to find fault The
great enmity and hatred that appar-
emily prevailed against us we're, how
ever, shown in the negotiations and
in the terms, imposed"
i'he narrator remarks that the
Freach officer and Vice Admiral
Wsymss, the British representative.
maintained a cold attitude, "ncver
tempered by a friendly word"
Marshal Foch, whom we saw only
twice-at the beginning and at the
end Of the conference-is a stern,
plain man He did not speak sim
gle word to us in the tone which for
merly distinguished the chivalrous
French nation.
ut is not true that Foch told us
there, could not be any question Of
negotiation, but only the imposition
of conditions. and whatever GOODNESS
he displayed was never ill-mannered
or rough.
Really, there was nothing TO ne
gotiate.. We pointed out the techni-
cal impossibility of some conditions.
but finally we were obliged to sign"
During the discussion the French
commissioners handed the Germans
some Paris newspapers announcing
the abdicaiion Of Empero. William.
I'VE observed no smile OF triumph
on their faces" adds :he writer, "but

PREDICTS JAPAN's ENTRY
GRAIN PRICES SHOW
ONLY MINOR CHANGES

Chicago, March 3o.-war activities
have ruled the grain trade this week
nearly to the exclusion Of all other fac
tors. The net result has been virtually
perfect balance in prices. Compared
with a week ago corn this morning was
unchanged and oats varied from q @ 4
decline to &c advance. Provisions
showed setback of 12c to 35c.
Bulletins telling Of the German drive
brought business almost to stand
still many times during the week in the
corn pit At the outset of the big Of
fensive, prices held steady but bearish
effects which war developments later
exercised in Wall Street were reflected
by grain values. Subsequently increas-
ed confidence regarding the military
outlook caused rallies. Activity of ex-
porters gave to the oats market at
some stages a notable degree Of
strength The March delivery in par
ticular frightened to such an extent that
further trading in the option was for
hidden and a settling price fixed at
92A. the closing figures of Thursday.
Big receipts Of hogs together with
need of an outlet for heavy stocks in
warehouses explained the weakness of
provisions.
