GASSED FOR "a HOURS
TERRIBLE EXPERIENCE IN AR
CONNIE TOLD BY HEROES.
Soldiers Who Faced Fumes Return TO
U. S. on the Transport Mongolia
Are Sent to Hospitals.

New York, Dec. 24.-Hundreds OF
Illinois men in the Thirty-third divi.
III were among the victims Of q gas
shel bombardment In the Argonne
forest which started the night of Octo-
Der Z and lasted "a hours.
Many of the men who are recover
ing from the noxious fumes arrived
on the Mongolia, which brought 4,70O
officers and men. They said ii was the
worst gas "strating" they had ever
experienced.
Nearly all the men gassed were bad
~ burned about the body, and a num-
Der said they had been blind for five
weeks. Many wore smoked glasses
and eye shades. They will be sent TO
hospitals near this city for special
treatment. Surgeons say they will re-
cover completely.
The One Hundred and Twenty-ninth
infantry, which has many members Of
the Third Illinois in Its ranks, appears
TO have been the hardest hit, Judging
from the stories of the wounded men
on the Mongolia.
The casualties Of the regiment In
the attack amounted to at least 80 per
cent. Few of the gassed men died,
however. The gas attack lasted SO
long that the fumes finally filtered
through the masks and the men fell In
their tracks.
Fifty men of Company F of the One
Humid e and Thirty-first infantry
fought their way through 200 Prus-
sian guardsmen who had surrounded
them In the Argonne November s and
got back to the American lines.
This story was told by Corp. Elmer
Sauerman, ia Cornelia avenue, Chi
cago, n Of the fifty. Sauerman was
shot by a sniper. The bullet pierced
his left lung, glanced off a rib and
went up into his shoulder.

Charged With Killing Chicago
Girl Ended Life by Hanging.

ner's jury wrote fms to the tragedy
that claimed the lives of Freda WEIGH
man of Chicago and Milo FL. Piper Of
Muskegon. The jury returned a ver-
dict stating that Piper had hanged
himself. The authorities are skeptical
Of a story of innocence which purports
to have been told by Piper to a Mus
kegon friend and revealed by him after
Piper was dead. According to this
story the insurance broker admitted
marrying Miss Weichman, and travelled
about the country with her in IN au-
tomobile. But he said he did not
kill her. The murder, he asserted.
was the work of the crew with which
Piper and the girl travelled. They
killed her to keep her from telling Of
a series Of robberies they had COM
mitted during their trip.

Europe can provide the setting for,
not that the thrones Of Russia, Ger
many and Austria have disappeared,
but from the representative character
OF the men summoned to meet the
head OF the American government.
Beside the members OF the royal
family, the official world was repre-.
scented by the foreign ambassadors to
the court of st. James, the heads of
the government, present and past
chiefs Of the army and navy, colonial
officials and members Of the royal
dignitaries Of the church Of England,
representatives OF universities and
men high in the worlds OF literature,
art and Journalism.
President Wilson escorted Queen
Mary into the banquet hall. while King
George gave his arm to Mrs. Wilson.

with the president. Five hours were
taken up by two conferences with
David Lloyd George, the British prime
minister, and Arthur J. Balfour, for
eign secretary, on peace problems.
This was the fulfllment Of the main
purpose OF the presidents pilgrimage

There was a picturesque incident
after the luncheon when President

mier's residence by Lord Albermarle.
The interest Of Londoners in Presi-
dent Wilson continues high. Crowds
outside the palace and in Downing
street awaited his coming all day,
Notwithstanding the rain and cheered
his every appearance. Each time they
saw President Wilson they demanded.
a speech, but each time the president
shook his head negatively.

butes to the president, which undoubt-
edly have been the cause of a height
ening In his personal popularity in
London.

gathering will witness the progress of
