miles from camp, on an open ridge
covered with tall grass, the advance

Prevents All Escape.
Approaching this Gotta, from
which a few shots were fred, the
battery was placed in position at
range of about 400 yards, and Lieu
tenant Oracle, with Company M,
was sent to the left to cut off any
avenue of escape from that direc-
ton. Captain Kirkpatrick, with
Troop L, dismounted, and Lieuten-
ant Bickham, with Company F,
were sent to the right, both wings
being directed to cover as far as
possible any escape to the rear. In
taking position, the right wing en-
countered several Moros attempting
to escape, all of whom were either
killed or wounded.
"The infantry being in position,
fire was opened on the Gotta with
the battery. Lieutenant Oracle soon
after entered the Gotta and found it
abandoned. This Gotta was a very
strong one, about $50 feet square,
with walls of earth 10 feet thick,
surrounded by a deep trench, with
bamboos stakes protecting all ap-
proaches. 1t contained large guam
tity of rice, in large, substantial
building. This building and con-
tents of Gotta were destroyed, as was

1.-THE overthrow Of Premier Clemen-
ceau Of France is considered a matter of
but a few days. according 10 belief ex-
pressed here today.
French and Italian strikes are
strengthening the sentiment of the ma
tionsl assembly against signing the
treaty.
Emil Barth. one Of the independent
Socialist leaders. declared today that
the cabinet and the national assembly
would refuse to sanction the signing of
the treaty. and would then await the
entente's first step"
W are passive in the west but ac-
tive on our eastern frontier against the
Poles" Barth said. "Ail of the peas
antry have been armed for this purpose
and numerous troops have been posted
at various points. A nationalist up
heaval in the eastern part of the coun-
try is inevitable.
If the government resigns the indie
pendent Socialists and Communists will
form a government and send delegates
70 Versailles to sign a pledge for the
fulhllment of all of the terms Of the
treaty"
Prince Max, OF Baden, FORMER chancel-
Tor. in another article in the Berlinger
Tageblatt insists that "A real Wilson
peace" must be obtained.
The peoples opposition 10 the Yer
sailles terms is sufficiently strong TO
force a revision Of the terms. Prince
Max argues. Germany is unable TO
sign a wrong peace. declared Prince
Max. adding We must submit to suf-
ferings for a short time before we sign
such a document"

Germany rejects the treaty.
The MY chance that Germany has
Of securing additional time beyond the
five DAYS decided upon is in the event
that government changes are decided
upon. If ministry changes occur, how
ever. the officials in cor&rol must
give their pledge that the successors
to the present German cabinet Will &C
cept the terms.
American delegates insisted that the
fact that changes of verbiage in certain
Of the treaty terms presented 70 Ger
many made il necessary to draft a com
plete substitute for the original treaty
and that such action was fully JUSTIFIED.
The council Of five has been endeav-
oring TO withhold the text from publ
cation. pending submission TO the Ger
mans on Monday.
1t is stated, however. that the revised
document will be made pubic probably
at once after it is presented to Count
Won Brockdorff Rantzau and his col
leagues.
The French are said 70 be fully salts
fed with the changes in the league OF
nations constitution which provides for
the admission Of Germany to member
ship within a short time" just as Ger
many demonstrates that she is a self
governed nation. meeting all of her
treaty obligations.
II is understood that Premier Clemen-
ceau has given way on his proposals re-
gardins the left bank of the Rhine,
which he was urging for the safeguard
ing of the future of Frances eastern
frontier.
The Poles are extremely dissatisfied
with the provisions for a plebiseite in
upper Silesia. However. the big five are
understood to be unanimous on this
point.
