ATTACK MOVING TRAIN
Anarchists Fire on Cars Guarded
by Americans.
Three Yankee Soldiers Are SIiahtIy
Wounded While Pursuing Reds
in Siberia.

Vladiyostok, May 27.-The first cas-
ualties In the American expeditionary
force in Siberia were experienced May
II, when three Americans were slight
ly wounded.
They were pursuing Bolsheyiki who
had attacked a running train guarded
by Americans 40 miles northeast of
Vladivostok at the head of Ussuri Bay
In the Maritime province which is
seething with disorder and revolt
against the authority of Admiral Kol-
chack
The attack occurred on the route to
the Suchan mines, on the section of
the railroad under American protec-
ton. When the train was fired on,
the Americans gave three hours chase.
Additional American troops have
been dispatched to the Suchan district.
1t is not expected that they will have
difficulty in handling the situation,
despite reports that the organized
bands of Bolsheviki number 10000.
The Americans are operating in the
wild and hilly country in extreme wet
and foggy weather. but are carrying
on magnificently.

German Cabinet and Peace En-.
voys Are Said to Have
Framed Appeal.
SENDS ANOTHER NOTE
Chairman of Teuton Delegation insists
That Germany's Only Responsible
ity Is for the Violation of Bel.
gian Neutrality.

Paris, May 27.-Berlin reports per-
sist that the German cabinet and the
peace delegates are one in their inten-
tion to request notifications on vari-
GUS clauses of the treaty, the provi-
sions of which it is declared Germany
will be unable to meet without en-
shaving herself for lifetime.
Count Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau's thir-
teenth note to the Allied council was
delivered. 1t is rejoinder to the
councils reply to the German note re-
garding responsibilities.
Count Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau in
sists that Germany's only responsible
ity is for the violation of Belgium neu-
trality, which it is ready to make rep
aration for, and declares that all the
powers We're responsible for the war
and that the material damage done
was the work of the Allied armies, as
well as the Germans.
Thursday is the time limit set for
the Germans to make known what
Germany proposes to do with regards
to accepting or rejecting the peace
terms.
Tuesday is spoken of in Berlin dis
patch as the day on which Germany's
answer will be ready. The latest note
of the Germans-their thirteenth-digs
up again the question of responsible
ties. Germany asserts that the only
thing for which she is responsible is
the violation of Belgian neutrality.
For this she is ready to make repara-
ton. 1t is asserted that all the pow
ers were responsible for the war.
The concession with regard to the
Saar valley agreed to by the Allies
provides that Germany may create a
prior charge on her assets or revenue
for the payment for the mines In the
Saar region If the plebiscite to be held
in the region is years hence should be
in favor of the Germans.

Paris, May 27.--The Council of Four

SEEK TO EvADE INDEMNITY
Austrian Provinces Trying to Join
Neutral Nations.

Paris, May 27.-The apparent un-
willingness of Switzerland to accept
the Austrian province Of voralberg,
which voted to join Switzerland, has a
parallel in the manifest unwillingness
of Denmark to accept the section of
southern Schleswig, greater than was
originally included in the portion
where Denmark was willing to abide
by the result of plebiscite.
Several districts of the former Cen
trail Powers, desiring to avoid partici-
patton in the payment OF indemnities,
show disposition to vote In the plebi-
scites for financial, rather than ma
tional reasons. AS a result, neutral
countries are becoming suspicious of
certain German and Austrian groups.

on Treaty Publication.

Paris, May 27.-The Echo de Paris
declares 1t was on the request of
President Wilson that the heads of
the Allied and Associated Powers have
declined to permit publication of the
full text of the peace treaty presented
to the Germans. President Wilson,
adds the newspaper, foresaw incon-
venience and risk in opening an i'm

Dispatches from American CORE
spondents to the United States have
stated it was understood the chief op-
position to making the treaty public
came from Premier Lloyd George, al
though President Wilson later had ap-
proved the British premier's view.
Makes Sharp Reply.
Washington, May 26.-Declaration
by Count Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau,
head of the German peace delegation,
that 1t was 'inadmissable that German
populations should be bartered about
from sovereignty to sovereignty as II
they were mere chattels and pawns in
a game" has been met by Premier
Georges Clemenceau, speaking for the
Associated Powers, with the statement
that in no case would self-desermina-
ton of peoples be denied under the
peace treaty.
The German note was made public
at the state department along with the
reply of M. Clemenceau.
The German delegates objected to
the surrender of territory under the
peace treaty in Silesia, Bosnia, West
and East Prussia, and also the Saar
basin, the demand for all of which, the
German note asserts, is obviously in
consistent with the principles upon
which the armistice and the negotia,
tions for peace were proposed" be-
cause Of the German poplation of the
districts. Count Brockdorff- -Rantzau
charges the Associated Governments
with the "bartering of territories for
the purpose of giving guaranty for
financial or economic claims of the
adversaries of Germany"
In replying, M. Clemenceau said:
81 must deny on the part of the Al
lied and Associated Governments the
suggestion contained in 1t (the Ger
man note) that German territories are
by the treaty of peace made the sub
ject of bargains between one sover.
eighty and another as though they
were mere chattels and pawns in a
game. In fact, the wishes of the pop
ulation of all the territories In Ques-
ton will be consulted and the pro-
cedure followed il such consultation
has been carefully settled with special
regard to local conditions"
Wants Speedy Peace.
Basle, May 27.-Dr. Karl Renner,
Austrian chancellor, has appealed to
Premier Georges Clemenceau to expe-
dite peace negotiations with Austria
according to Vienna dispatch. Fear
that disorders might break out in Aus
tria prompted the appeal.
