Mrs. Anna Seiffert, mother-in-law of

refused to reveal their identity.
The front of the rectory was badly

SAN FRANCISCO, June 5.--Gustav
Miller, Almeda boy, had some tough
lighting in the Argonne as q member
Of the 91st Division. A. E F.. but his
most unusual adventure was when he
captured his own cousin, q prisoner OF

The story was told following his

Miller was lighting his way toward
the German lines when q gray-elad
figure climbed from q shell hole and,
with arms extended. shouted the IA

Miller lowered his gun when his
prisoner suddenly exclaimed in a
startled tone in excellent English:

get here?
How the devil did you set here?"
was the question Gustav hurled back
at his prisoner.

but also the lives of others. Franklin

the Navy. who lives at 2131 r street,
across from Mr.. Palmer's home, drove

the explosion of the bomb. Mrs.
Roosevelt was in the automobile with
him, and both consider their escape
as marvellous.

cIared Secretary Roosevelt I'VE saw

Mr.. Roosevelt drove Mrs. Palmer
and her daughter in his automobile
to 1911 Twentieth street, where they
were later Joined by Mr.. Palmer. The

Financial Aid Is
Promised Austria
Following Peace
Covering Letter With the
Treaty Says Assistance Is
Necessary to Assure the
Possibility of Existence

PARIS. Aug. 31.-The covering letter
accompanying the Austrian peace
treaty sets forth the great respon-
sibility Of Austria, which. therefore,
cannot obtain the same treatment as
Czecho- Slovakia and Jugoslavia, but
recognizes that in view of the small
expanse of its territory it is impos-
sible not to help her economically and
financially in order to assure her pos
sibilities of existence.
The letter also alludes to the clause
in the treaty aimed at attempts by
propagandists to connect Austria with
Germany.
The Austrian treaty, as it stands at
the present time and as it probably will
be handed to the Austrians on Tues
day, in no way affects the Adrlatic
question, so far as is known.
The Italian Foreign Minister, Signor
Tittoni, is conferring with the British
Prime Minister Lloyd George, at
one OF the small towns in France to-
day. and has for weeks been informally
discussing the Fiume problem with in
dividuai members of the Supreme Coun-
Gil but no positive agreement has been
reached by the council.
Certainly the American delegation
has not approved any Of the proposed
settlements, although it is general.y y
conceded that the council is not hope
lessly divided, and a speedy agreement
seems likely, with all of Fiume inter-
nationalized.
