Paris, April 1.-THE arrival of Sec
retary OF War Baker this morning has
revived rumors OF the possibility Of
his replacing President Wilson follow
ing the initial session of the Peace
Conference with the central powers
represented.
Secretary Baker himself declared the
revival of this ancient rumor was un-
warranted; nevertheless the rumor
persisted in official quarters, where
the necessity of President Wilson's re-
turning to Washington, summoning a
special session of Congress and at
tending to the internal affairs OF the
United States is fully recognized.
Secretary Baker was escorted fr.N,

the members of the latters staff

military contracts dealing with ex-
penditures and to settle the French

turn back the French military bases
which are no longer needed.
Volunteers for Germany.
Secretary Baker said it had not
yet been determined whether or not
there would be a permanent army
of occupation OF the Rhine, but If SO
probably only volunteers from the
United States army will be con-
cerned.
The Secretary had not heard OF
the mutiny Of one company of
American troops on the Archangel
front in Russia but said that Amer
ican troops there would be returned
home as soon as the weather per-
mits. <
Mr.. Baker said plans had been
made for returning 275.0oO Ameri-
can troops from France to America
during this month. There will
probably be fewer next month, ow-
ing to the difficulty of shipping, but
the War Department would hurry
the repatriation as fast as possible
To Retain Material.
Secretary Baker said that he ex-
pected to remain in France only
ten days on special business OF the
liquidation commission.
He said the liquidation commission
is working with the French on some
means of disposing of docks, ware.
houses, railroads and manufacturing
plants. in addition to thousands OF
automobiles. trucks. quartermaster'.
supplies, etc. The material not dis
posed of to the French or others must
be returned to America. The greater
part of airplanes and artillery will be
returned. he said.
High seas prevented the secretary
from landing for three hours at Brest
yesterday afternoon. He finally went
ashore about I o'clock. He was met
on the dock by Gen. Pershing. The
latter's son, Warren, accompanied
the secretary ashore 1t was the first
time the general had seen his son in
two years.
