PRESIDENT WILSON
SAILS FOR FRANCE
Peace Conference Delegates
Leave New York Wednesday.
CHERBOURG PORT OF ENTRY
u. S. S, George Washington, Carrying
Party Across, Is Conveyed by the
Dreadnaught Pennsylvania and
Five Destroyers

New York, Dec 4-PreSident Will
son, Secretary Lansing, Henry White
and large party of cOufsellOrs, sec
retarieS and American delegates to the
peace conference sailed on the United
States steamship George Washington
early Wednesday for CherbOurg.
The original plan of having the
steamer anchor in Gravesend bay to
await the arrival of the president on
the MayflOwer was abandoned, the
presidential party arranging instead to
arrive in HObOken by special train at
a. m. The train was switched from
the Summit avenue station of the
pennsylvania railroad in Jersey City
to the HObOken shore road and the
presidents coach hauled to pier 4.
This eliminated the necessity of trip
through the streets Of HobOken.
Convoy of Warships.
Off Sandy Hook the steamer was
met by Admiral Mayo's superdread-
naught Pennsylvania and five fast de-
strOyers. The naval squadron will act
as an escort of honor across the At
lantic to CherbOurg, at which port the
party is expected to arrive on Deem
Der r. CherbOurg has been a closed
military port since the outbreak of the
war and the change in the plan OF
sending the steamer to BreSt was
made because the rail journey to Paris
from CherbOurg is shorter.
The George Washington was dressed
with flags at daybreak and the pier
was profusely decorated with bunting
and Streamers., The steamships bat
terry OF four guns is still aboard, al
though the gun crew does not expect
to have any use for them as long as
the Pennsylvania with her big 15-incn
rifles is the escort.
To Have Imperial Suite.
President and Mrs Wilson will Oc-
cupy what was formerly the imperial
suite This is on G. deck and looks
out upon the promenade deck, which
from amidships forward is inclOsed.
Adjoining is the suite that will be
occupied by Secretary of State Lam
sing. In the presidents study is
telephone connected with a switch
board through which he can speak to
any part of the ship.
Admiral Gleaves notified Capt. Will
liam S. Mclaughlin that he had been
selected to pilot the president out of
the harbor. Captain Mclaughlin was
the pilot of the Northern Pacific,
which took Colonel House to Europe.
On practically every trip the Levia-
than, Americas largest transport, has
made in and out of New York harbOr,
Captain Mclaughlin has been in COM
mand on the bridge.
Strong Guard at Pier.
HOboken, n. j., Dec. 4.-ExtraOr-
binary precautions were taken to pro-
tect President Wilson and a military
guard was provided for him from the
time his train arrived from Washing
ton until the George Washington
sailed.
The train was Shunted into the in
closure in front of the Hamburger Amer
lean piers and StSpped within 200 feet
of the liners gangplank.
