and MoscIle, Nov. l2,
The last French town to fall into
American hands before the armistice
went into effect was Stenay. Patrols
reported they had found it empty not
more than a quarter of an hour before
IL o'clock. American troops rushed
through the town. and in few minutes
Allied flags were beginning to appear
from the windows As the church bell
solemnly tolled the hour of IL troops
from the Ninetieth Division were pouring
into the town.
only a line of glowing campfires
marked the front last night. Except for

The majority seemed too dazed to be

stopped. With trembling hands they
offered coffee and bread to their deliv-
erers.
The town is not badly damaged by
shell fire but, according to the remain
ing inhabitants, has been plundered of
nearly everything of value. The streets
were barricaded with huge heaps Of fur
niture, indicating the intention of the
Germans to hold desperately if attacked
before the armistice was effective. AT
the last moment. however, they with

Germany's financial prostration Is
rendered irremediably worse by the
