Peace Terms for Austria Are Pre-
pared by the Allied Dele
oates at Paris.
GERMANS STILL PROTESTING
Ebert and Scheidemann Insist Treaty
Must Not Be Signed, and Allies
Get Ready for Further Action
--koIchak Plans to Crush
Soviet Armies.
BY EDWARD w. PIcKARD.

The allied peace delegates at Paris
we're occupied last week mainly in pre-
pairing to hand out to Austria what is
coming to her, and in listening to the
walls, official and unofficial, of the
Germans over the treaty that awaits
their signature.
Austria's delegates, headed by Chan
cellor Karl Renner, were received and
housed at ST. Germain. They were
treated with good deal more cordial
fly than were the Germans at YER
sailles, and were given quarters in
pleasant villas that overlook the Seine
valley and Paris, with nos high fences
or sentries to restrict their move
ments. In return, the Austrians ap-
peared in good humor and hopeful Of
Ienient treatment, and seemed to ap-
preciate the good nature displayed by
the cosmopolitan crowd of journalists
and others that met them. Chancel-
Tor Renner spoke in German but eX-
planned that this was because he was
unable to speak French, his courtesy
in this contrasting with the behavior
of Count Won Brockdorff-Rantzau at
Versailles. In responding to the
greetings of the allies representatives
he said: 81 hope may go away with
as joyful heart as l bring" Other
members of the delegation intimated,
none too strongly, that they would not
be able to sign the treaty unless it
provided for the union of German Be-
hemia and German Tyrol with Ger
many. 1t is assumed they will accept
the pact even if that annexation is
not permitted.

parture in the styles is heralded by a
few very rich blouses, made of two or
three kinds Of lace, very skillfully
combined, or of lace with fine embroid-
cred batiste. Fine filet, handmade val
and cluny laces, with the heavier braid
laces joined to them by lace stitches,
look very much like the work of the
French and are late arrivals in the
displays that will captivate many adj

One of the most impressive ceremo-
MES incident to the war was the recep-
ton by the British of the remains of
Edith Cavell, the nurse the Germans
murdered in Belgium, and the public
funeral services in Westminster abbey.
High officials and representatives Of
foreign governments attended, as well
as a great throng of citizens, and the
streets around the abbey were filed
with an immense throng of those who
sought to do .reverent homage to the
brave woman.

Never season is ushered in with
out few models in suits made along
the lines of the Russian blouse, and
never do these suits go unconsidcred.
There is just one explanation for this
state of things and that is the becom-

"class." There are certain types of

The plans for the trial and punish
ment of the former kaiser are not
going smoothly. They contemplate
the assumption Of the role of COM
piainant by some one of the allied ma
lions, and it was presumed Belgium
would so act. But Belgium, perhaps
because it is a kingdom, declines, and
no other has yet volunteered. Hol-
land has not decided to surrender Will
liam for trial, the Dutch government
contending that at present the ques-
ton concerns only Germany and the
entente.

Spots on wooden cloth may be re-

should always be applied with piece

goods being cleaned, if possible. This
method is recommended as being

effective.

In some ways the treaty with Aus
tria, it is said will be like that with
Germany. Austria is to lose her en-
tire navy, according to the reports,
and there is little doubt that when her
new boundaries are delimited she will
find that her southern frontier is push
ed back so far that Italy will have
not only the Trentino and Trieste, bat
also all the strategic passes and
heights in the Alps which the Italians
say are necessary to their future Sc
curity. This is in accordance with
the secret treaty of London. In the
matter of reparation Austria of course
will be required to pay certain sums,
but these will be small in comparison
with those demanded from the Ger
mans. The clauses concerning water
ways are much like those in the Ger
man treaty. The breaking up of the
Austro- Hungarian empire has result
ed in reducing Austria to a rather
small fourth rate power without direct
access to the sea, and it is the aim Of
at least some of the allied nations to
keep her in that condition. BY her.
self she is comparatively harmless !;
united with Germany, she would help
largely to make up a nation that might
again threaten the peace Of the world.

In eastern Russia Admiral Kolchak,
head of the Omsk government, is max
ing plans for a great advance designed
to establish communication with the
Archangel forces on the north and
those of General Denekine on the
south and to effectually crush the
soviet armies. As a starter he has
captured Samara, an important city.
He says he will move in the direction
Of Moscow and that the capture Of
that bolshevik capital will be his chief
aim. What he asks from the allies is
armament, munitions, material and
clothing. After his final victory, he
declares, national assembly will be
called to which he will hand over his
authority. The bolsheviki have met
further defeats at the hands of Pet
luras Ukrainians, and revolts against
their rule have broken out in the gov
ernments of Kiev, Tchernigov and
Poltava.
Tchitcherin, bolshevist foreign min
lister, has announced that the bolshe-
Wiki will not consent to stop hostilities
as condition of the provisioning OF
Russia by neutrals, and the anti-bol-
shevist leaders declare that this plan,
proposed by Doctor Nansen,,is no So
luton of the Russian question.

Won Observation-Disclosures and his
colleagues on the German delegation,
together with their numerous experts,
have been as busy as bees formulat-
ing objections to the German treaty.
Several OF these were transmitted to
the allies last week and most Of them
were rather summarily answered, and
dismissed. These formal objections
were considered mere preliminary
skirmishes, and meanwhile the Ger
mans were preparing elaborate coun-
ter-proposals. These, 1t is said, would
contain two dominant diplomatic fea-
tures-an exaltation Of the league of
nations idea, and a vigorous demand

Premier Paderewski, returning from
Paris to Warsaw, was greeted first by
an attempt on his life by two bolshev-
lists and then by q mammoth demon
stration by his fellow cOuntrymen, who
are grateful for his efforts at the
peace conference. The Poles are high
ly pleased by the placing of the free
city &c Danzig under their control in
stead of that of Germany, though they
wanted to be granted the port out

ment also suits them, but not the ST.

an armed revolt against annexation to
Poland and asking aid from Germany.
The Poles and the Ukrainians are said
to have agreed to quit fighting each
other, though later reports told Of
defeat of the former by the latter in
the vicinity of Lemberg.

ing to reports, was as adamant in re-
gard to Fiume. Anyhow, the plan to
internationalize that port for several
years had not proved acceptable. The
Italians have landed large military
forces at Sebenico and lara, ports on
the Dalmatian coast between Fiume
and Spalato. Appeals are made by
the Italians to America not to assume
the role of an oppressor of millions
of Italians desiring to reunite with
