Paris King Victor Emmanuel, ac-
companied by the heir to the Italian
throne, the prince of Piedmont, and a
personal guard, arrived in Paris.
A warm welcome was given the
Italian monarch by President Poin.
caire, Premier Clemenceau and the
other ministers, and throngs in the
streets acclaimed him as the process
sion went to the Italian embassy.
The king paid a visit to President
Wilson at the Murat mansion. During
the kings visit, in addition to inviting
President Wilson and Mrs. Wilson to
visit Italy, he also extended the in
vitation to Miss Margaret Wilson,
daughter of the president.
Definite plans for the peace confer
ence are not shaping as rapidly as
some of the American commissioners
expected. Meanwhile President Will
son is taking advantage of the oppor-
tunity to assess public opinion in
France, and incidentally In Great
Britain. His advisers say he is entire
ly satisfied that these peoples are
largely in accord with the principles
he has announced as necessary to a
durable peace.

Sees Discrepancies Creep In.

Manchester-In commenting on
President Wilson's visit to London,
now in immediate prospect, the Guar
dian regards it as signifying that the
president means business, which the
leisurely arrangements previously
contemplated hardly seemed to i'm
ply"
at is unnecessary to speculate"
continues the newspaper, upon the
precise causes of this sudden change
of plans but obviously the circum-
stances of the moment are not such
as to brook delay. The news from
Germany shows that two things are
essential If order is to be kept and
a stable government maintained-the
population must be fed and work pro-
vided for the returning soldiers and
employment, and yet we hear of moth
ing effective being DONE"
The Guardian refers to the impossi-
bility of an indefinite stay by Presi-
dent Wilson, who had come with
definite principles and policy, 1t says,
which the Allies had formally and
definitely accepted, but the president
could not have been long in Paris, 1t
adds, without discovering what it calls
the strange discrepancies between
"this protested acceptance and the
sectional and purely nationalistic de-
mands put forward by various coun-
tries, not excluding our own"
The Guardian believes that Premier
Lloyd George desires to act with
President Wilson, but that explana-
tions and the reaching of a definite
agreement are needed. No step in ad.
vance can be taken until this is done,
1t declares.

66,Ss2 CASUALTIES TO REPORT
1880 Deaths On List, 64,s62 Wounded
and $50 Missing and Prisoners.

hington-Casualtie of the Am
erican expeditionary forces, which
have been announced officially by
General Pershing had been reduced
recently to a total of $500. These
the war department announced, were
classified as follows:
Major casualties, including killed in
action, died of wounds, died of dis
ease and died OF other causes, 1850;
wounded 64,S62; missing and prison
ers $50.
A large proportion of the 64,S62
names listed as wounded are minor
cases. 1t was said, many patients
having long since recovered and re-
turned to duty. Officials explained
that General Pershing's total included
Marine casualties of 1902 killed and
more than 1000 wounded, which al
ready have been published by the
marine corps headquarters here.

I'm THE path of the victorious
British expedition in Palestine as
it moved northward lay the noun
tain ranges of the Lebanon, and
Aleppo, the taking of which city gave
complete control of the Syrian end of
the Bagdad railway and of the i'm
portant port of Alexandretta, the best
harbor in the country. From Damas-
Gus the railway to the north traverses
the Beka'a, a long, fertile valley be-
tween the Lebanon and Anti-Lebanon
ranges. In the middle of this valley
on the slope Of the latter range is
situated the ancient town of Baalbek
celebrated for its wonderful ruins.
Baalbek is a small and prosperous
town, a large part of the population
being Christian, says Country Life,
and it Is the seat of the government
of a province of the same name and
q military center. Ya'kubi, an Arab
writer of the ninth century, speaks of
Baalbek as one of the finest towns of
Syria, and other writer's make allusion
to this beautiful spot and its wonder
full ruins. 1t is spoken of by the geog-
rapher, Nur Kaddasi, as the coolest
place In Syria.
AS the name Baalbek, which is
Semitic In origin, implies, it was con-
nected from early times with the wor-
ship of the sun, probably meaning the
city of Baal in the Beka'a, by which
the plain is known. The Phoenicians
here erected great temple to Baal
constructed with colossal stones after
their manner. This was afterwards
utilized and reconstructed in the Grae-
co-Roman period, when the name Baal-
bek took the Greek form of Hellopolls.

TWO RACES LONG INTIMATE
Scotsman and Frenchman Seemed
to Have Had Many Characteris-
tics in Common.

Walter Scott found his most en-
trancing field in the Scottish-French.
Quentin Durward reveals the intimacy
of the two races. The literature OF
the centuries between 1900 and 100
marks the effect of the Caledonian
character on the citlzenry of the pa
trio. The speech of the provincials
attested the prevalence Of Scottish
characteristics: proud as a Scots
man." "Cut clean through like
a Scotch poignard" 1t was long
legend that the dagger which pierced
the heart of Henri III was of Scotch
workmanship. Rabelais called the
speech of the Caledonians Scottish

the Scottish influence. For GEN.

PRESIDENT Will
FIGHT COUNCIL

WASHINGTON, Jan. 21.-President
Wilson has served notice on Demo-
cratic leaders in the senate that he
will use all his influence and power
to beat the bill to create a war coun.
Gil. THE president will fight to the
finish,' was the word brought to the
capital today.
Despite the presidents announced
determination to oppose the bill with
auu his resources. it was introduced
in the senate today as planned, by
Chairman Chamberlain of the mill
tary committee and with the approval
of practically oil the democrats of the
committee who showed no disposition
to recede.
Members'of congress saw in the sit.
uation the makings of a historical con-
test between the executive and con-
gress.
President Wilson told the leaders
with whom he consulted today that
he considered the creation Of a war
council would take the personal d.
rection Of Americas part in the con.
fict out of his hands, and likened it
to the attempt to curtan the authority
OF President Lincoln.
