to the United States Navy has been

Adriatic Coast extending from Fort
PIanta to Giupanni. This includes the
important city of Spalato. The Brit
ish and Italians are policing the
shore northwest of Fort Planta. This
includes Fiume. The French feet Is
taking care Of the coast from Giu-

The significance of the official
statement is that il clarifies for the
first time the whole situation re-
specting the functions of the Ameri-

was taken by Admiral Andrews re-
garding Trau until the Council was

Expect British Protests.
The British are expected to pro-
=sst. if they have not already done
.. and on that protest the whole
sEuestion of the distribution OF Ger
faan and Austrian ships captured
uring the war will be decided.
The ships which were to have been
surrendered to the British are rough
~ valued at siO.OOO.OO0. Besides the

lsgictoria they include the Cape Fin

United States Shipping Board that
the Imperator. Kaiserin Auguste

board therefore assigned these ves-
Eels to the War Department for the

Of the board requested the War De-

United States Shipping Board. Ac-
rordinSIy, the War Department this

Only Loaned to U. =.
The British contention is under
ytood to be that these nine German
ships were only loaned to the United
states for the repatriation Of troops
and that it was the intention of the
Peace Conference to have the ships
20 to the British as soon as this
Service for the United States was
performed. The understanding Of

regards the ALLEGATION of the ships

SPEED OF PRESIDENTS

he began his long tour but yester-
day. instead OF the happy. cheering
crowds which welcomed him three
weeks ago. the train whizzed by lit
We groups of silent people. When
stops were made at the larger cities
the train was surrounded by de-
tectives and policemen. No other
persons were permitted near 1t.
The President relaxed considerably
during the day and this was deemed
good sign by DR.. Grayson. This
was the first day since he left WASH
ington-September 3-that he has not
been the center Of great masses of his
fellow citizens and the comparative
quiet was most beneficial to him. Dc.
Grayson is anxious to get him to
Washington as soon as possible so he
may have the privacy and comfort Of
the White House. Later. if he shows
signs of recovering his strength. he
undoubtedly will seek a quiet retreat
where the process Of recuperation will
have full sway.
President's Mind Easy.
The Presidents mind Is easy on one
matter and that is the treaty figbt.
He believes he has won 1t. He is
certain that his trip over the country
has aroused public sentiment to the
extent that 1t Is already making itself
felt in the Senate.
While the results from the view
point Of one in Washington may not
Justify this opinion. the friends Of
the President are not expressing any
anxiety on the score OF the treaty.
They feel as he does, that he reached
the climax of his campaign early
enough to permit peace of mind as
far as the treaty or the league Of ma
tions covenant is concerned.
The subject OF the treaty, however.
as we'll as other projects of the
government in which the President
might be interested were not allowed
to enter his day in any tangible
form. at least. by DIR. Grayson.
Mindful Of the fact that the greatest
danger to the President is his weak
ened condition. the physician ordered
absolute rest as his prescription for
the day. and the President obeyed
orders.
An instance like this is about the
only time the Chief
OF the Army and Navy can be or
dered about with impunity. But from
now until the President has COM

Hans Christian Andersen.

Hans Christian Andersen, styled the
children's poet, was celebrated Dam
ish writer, born at Odense In 1905 and
died at Copenhagen after brief Ill
ness. August 4, 1875. His last years
were embarrassed by criticism and at
tended by all the honor and love that
should accompany genius combined
with old age. AS the child of poor,
shiftless parents, he had little instruc-
ton and few associates, but his dra-
matte instinct was developed by Fon-
tame and the Arabian Nights, and the
visit of theatrical company to his
native city led him to seek his dra-
matte fortune in Copenhagen, where
for four years he worked diligently
but produced nothing of note. In 1885
he essayed the "Fairy Tales" by which
he was to receive world wide recogni-
tion. The classic "Tinderbox' and "Big
Claus and Little Claus" are also of
this year. A short time afterwards
"Only Fiddler" gave him European
reputation.
