27.-Bad feeling has developed De-
tween the PrusSians and BavaKians in
the German army Withdrawing before
the American army of occupation. Re
sponsibility for the loss of ne war is
one OF the chief causes Of disSenSiOn,
according to reports.
The trouble Is said to have reached
such stage that the BavarianS and
Prussians refused TO divide their IA
lions with each other or to share BIZ

Beyond Treyes the Withdrawing Ger
man troops are being received with
! open arms by the civilians in the Wiz
| lagos. This Is reported by British sol
diers reaching the American lines.
Everywhere, the Britishers said, the
eivili:ns had strung signs Of welcome
over the village streets and were re-
ce1ving the German soldiers as heroes.
