Versailles. May 19.- Count
Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau, head
of the German peace mission,
who left for Spa on Saturday
night returned to Versailles this
morning. He was accompanied
by Herr Landsberg and Herr
Giesberts, two other members
of the delegation who had been
to Berlin.
Pairs, May 19.-The head of the
German peace delegation. Count Won
Brockdorff- -Rantzau, came to Paris Sat
urday night, but only for brief stay
On his way from Versailles to Berlin,
the count and other members of his
party went through the city to the
Northern Railway station. They ar
rived at the station at 1920 o'clock and
departed an hour later.
1t was evident from a survey of the
baggage that several of those who left
for the German capital would not re-
turn. Their departure from Versailles
was shrouded in mystery by the French
and it was witnessed by no one except
large force, of detectives and gen.
darmes.
The purpose of the trip of the peace
delegates TO Berlin is to discuss with
their government whether or not to sign
the Peace Treaty. There is a sharp
difference of opinion on this subject
Non Socialist supporters of the govern
ment, with the exception of some lead
ers of industry, are strongly opposed to
accepting the conditions imposed by
the Entente. The Independent Social
lists outside the government are just
as strongly in favor of signing. Chan
celor Scheidemann himself apparently
has not yet made up his mind and is
awaiting a detailed report from Count
Won Brockdorff- -Rant2au, in the mean
time leaving the way open Tor elther
an affirmative or negative decision.
