ia-rs Arriving Is Wife
and Daughter of Admiral

The French liner Rochambeau and
the transports Scranton, Arizonan,
Siboney and Iowan brought to port
yesterday from France 1886 officers
and men.
The Rochambeau, first to dock, had
7S9 American troops aboard. In her
second and third cabin accommoda-
tions she carried 600 civilians, many
of them war workers who had seen
two or three years service in France
Prominent among the saloon passen-
gers was Major General Arthur
Boucher, who was in command of the
S9th Division of the French army at
the first battle of the Yser. He is on
his way to Canada, where he will speak
in the interest of the Alliance Fran
caise.
When the general came ashore he
searched the pier to say goodby to
Sergeant Alfred Stanley, of Elmira,
N. Y, who had quit the freshman class
at Cornell three years ago and had
flown for the French air service. Ser
geant Stanley was in the middle of a
modest narrative of his exploits in
France when the general came behind
