EXACT Time SAILING STILL UNCERTAIN
CONGRESS ADDRESS PROBABLY ON TUESDAY

Washington, Nov. 2S.-The impress
sion is growing among those who
Rave talked with President Wilson
about the peace conference that the
American delegation will be limited
to three members and speculation
over the personnel had about mar
rowed down to these names: Robert
Lansing, secretary of state; Harry
White, ambassador to France and to
tally under the Mckinley admins
tration; Col. f. NJ. House. There has
been no announcement and there may
be none until the President delivers
his address to Congress next week,
but it was said tonight White House
callers had been given to understand
that these men would be the Amer
lean ENJOYS. 1t was also indicated
very definitely that representations
Of the President having decided to
sit at the peace table as a delegate
were untrue. He goes to take part in
the great preliminary meetings of the
heads of the associated governments
and to see the formal conference I'M
der way but not to serve as delegate.
In addition to the accredited dele
gates there will be a large party,
including, besides the military, naval
diplomatic and economic experts,
other specialists in the multiduinous
Questions to be dealt with. Among
them will be men Of high rank, pre-
pared to particil ate in discussions
that will take place outside of the
formal conference and in position be-
low only the accredited delegates,
who, 1t is assumed, will take ambas-
sadorial rank. The exact time Of the
Presidents sailing for Europe appar-
entity sill is unknown to anyone ex-
ccpt the President himself He is ex-
pected tc leave the day after he adj
dresses the new session Of Congress,

Italians and Belgians Are
 on Way to Battle Front From Duty in Russia

San Francisco, Cal May 12-En route
 to the fighting fronts, where they eX-
 pect again to take up arms, 325 Belgian
 and Italian soldiers, the majority of
 them officers arrived here today from
 an oriental port refugees, they said,
 from bolshevik rule in Russia. Two hundred and twenty-five of the travellers are Belgians. They were de- tailed by their government to act as instructors to the Russian troops. The remainder of the party are Italians whc deserted from the Austrian army in the Trentino and were sent to Russia to aid the Czars forces.
 When the revolution broke out the Italians were made prisoners. Later they said, they escaped to Baltic port where they spent the winter. They were sent by their government to Picking, where they met the Belgians. The Belgians said they would have been permitted to leave Russia if they had promised to surrender their arms and ammunition. They refused and fled carrying with them a quantity of am intuition and several machine guns They said it required three months te make the journey from Moscow to their point of departure for this port. The majority of the men have been quartered at a government post. Maj. Leon Osterrieth, chief of the Eel gian military mission in the Uni ed States, is here to escort the party acress the continent.
