AMERICAN PEOPLE HoAxEp.
Official Statement Show United Press
Reports Untrue.

New York, Nov. S,-Millions OF
Americans realized today that they
had been hoaxed into celebrating the
end of the war by publication Of the
United Press dispatches declaring the
armistice signed and fighting ended.
Twenty four hours has passed since
the country was thrown into delir-
ium by these reports, which declared
the armistice had been signed at IL
o'clock yesterday morninh and that
fighting had ceased at 2 o'clock yes
terday afternoon.
Each hour brings added official evil
dence that the reports were false and
that the American people were fooled,,
Not only have official coronunica-
toins fromsFrance to the state depart
nent at Washington announced the
reports rs untrue but the official state
ments of the French and British war
Offices show the fighting still going on.
Arrival Of Germans Delayed.
Far from signing an armistice at Ii
o'clock yesterday morning. the German
delegates did not cross the allied line
until last might. SThis is recorded in
Associated Press dispatches filed In
u
6. rman delegates wc-e tn be con-
Quoted early today to the meeting place,
which is four hours journey from La
Capelle. the place where they crossed
into the allied lines.
Hours after the fighting was falsely
reported stopped the American troops
were smashing their way forward on
the Sedan front and the only point on
the whole battle line where the fight-
ing seemed to have stopped at all was
at point where it was necessary to
let the German commissioners pass
thru.
Another Associated Press dispatch
from Paris this morning records the
official report Of the French war ONCE
that French troops have reached the
railway junction of Liart, twenty miles
north Of Rethel
End Of War in Sight.
No one can say what will come Of
the meeting OF the armistice commits
sioners today No one doubts that the
end OF the war Is in sight: that an
armistice will be signed and that iight-
ing will end while terms OF peace are
made.
But the fact is established BY oficiai
record that no armistice was aigned
Mt II a. m. yesterday and Aghting did
not en1 at p. m. yesterday.
The Associated Press did not receive
or distribute any Of the dispatches
which misled the American people In
to celebrating the greatest hoax OF re-
cent years. On the other hand. by in-8

Associated Press was able to expose II.

The powers conferred upon Marshal
Fcch arc strictly confined to the con-
clusion of an armistice. according. to
the Echo de Paris. The amendments OF
the terms placed in his hands by tie
inter-alled council are closely limited,
the newspaper says.
What Change:
one hundred days ago the Germans
were thirty-five miles from Paris. To-
day they are begging peace.
After many occasions when hope
has been deferred and bitter dis
appointment France knows at last
that triumph has come and give rein
to its unrcscrved joy. The conviction
is universal that whether the German
delegation signs articles Of capisula-
ton or not. Germany is beaten.
The allied advance. particularly the
exploit of the Americans. in entering
Sedan, name which thrills every
French heart. shows clearly that con-
tinuation Of hostilties by Germany can
lead only to military debacle in the
near future.
chaos in Germany.
This feeling is confirmed by news
received from reliable quarters that
Germany's internal affairs are drifting
toward chaos.
Last night the. people crowded
around the newspaper bulletin boards
until late hour undiscouraged by
the rain When the news of Sedan
wAs AeAhed there was an outburst of
cheers Joy and enthusiasm increased
as lycsterday waned. Groups sang the
