ness to be transacted this evening will
be the election of officers and the Sc

when an effort was made recently to

COBLENZ, Feb. 13.-(By Mai1.)-
The Prussian provincial and city au-
thorities at Coblenz got an unpleas-
ant surprise when they tried to equi-
vocate with the American officers in
charge of civil affairs. Now they
are working in harmony and evident
ly with n wholesome respect for the
straight from the shoulder methods
of the Americans.
After taking charge of the civil af-
fairs end of the occupation, Col. /. L..
Hunt sent for the president of the
province and the, burgomaster for a
conference. At the appointed hour
the secretary of each of the dignitar-
les showed up at the conference room
to represent these officials. Col. Hunt
Immediately sent them back with a
message that the president and the
burgomaster should present them
selves in person at his office within
half hour. In about 10 minutes the
indignant officials appeared, protest.
ing that their secretaries were en-
powered to speak for them.
Col. Gives Orders.
"When your secretaries have any
business over here, they are at liberty
to see my secretary" Col. Hunt told
them, "but when 1 send for you 1
want YOU" Then he gave the ruff
ed officials a bit Of advice. In the
midst of his talk the president arose
and announced that he was forced to
leave to keep an important appoint
