When the matter OF the Rhlneland
was taken up the effect of the German
protests again was evident. II was
virtually decided that there shall be
no buffer republic on the left bank OF
the Rhine, but that that region shall
be neutrallzed and pollced by allied
troops until the lndemnitles are paid;
that the Sanr coal basin shall not be
allotted to France, but shall remain
under German sovereignty, though Its
products shall go to the French for
certain period OF years. 1t is presumed
that French and Belgian troops would
hold the left bank of the Rhine. since
the British have insufficient forces for
the purpose and America does not
wish to leave any soldiers In Europe
after the treaty is signed. King AL
bert of Belgium went to Paris last
week, probably to discuss his coun'
trv's share In this occupation. He
called Oh Colonel House and President
Wilson.

Prodded by the public opinion OF
most OF the world. and particularly by
he insIstence of President wilson,
The peace delegates In Paris speeded
ND their work last week and really ac-
complished something. Mr.. Wilson, II
was reliably reported, told them that
II results were not forthcoming soon
he might reveal to the public the real
causes OF the delay, and Just before
that he issued statement denying
that the discussions over the league
OF nations were to blame In that re-
spect. No one nation. said Mr.. Will
son, was solely to be blamed for hold
Ing up the peace treaty. but dispatches
from Paris make It fairly clear that
many of the bitches baye been due to
the disparity between what the french
demand and what the Americans
sometimes backed by the British, are
willing to impose on the conquered
Germans.
II present indications so for any
thing, those same beaten Huns are
going to come out Of the peace con-
ference In fairly good shape. The big
Four" last week concerned themselves
mainly with the major questions or
reparatlon, the west bank OF the
Rhine. Danzlg and the italian frontier.
Unoflclally, Germany has been taking
part In the conference, and its argu'
ments. presented by public oflielaS.
the national assembly and the press,
seem to be having decided effect.
Though France still asserts that the
Huns should be required to pay the
last penny that can be got out OF
them, and In this are supported by the
public opinion Of most Of the civilized
world, the peace delegates. Influenced
apparently by the American represen-
tatiyes. have been scaling down the
amount of indemnity more and more
until the prediction now Is that 1t VIII
be less than S20,000,O00,0OO. How
Germany shall pay and how long
time shall be given her proves so COM
plIcated q question that 1t was consid'
cred probable last week that all that
will be left for decision by commits
sion after pence has been declared.
Germany has gold reserve of more
than 100000. 900. and likely a part Of
this will be demanded as n cash pay
ment to be dlsbursed In the devastated
regions Of Belgium and France.

Political interest In the United

where William Hale Thompson was
reelected mayor, despite his wretched
war record. His victory gives his fac

of trying to obtain for him the nomi-

MARY WALKER DEAD
CIVIL WAR SURGEON AND suF-

Was Awarded Medal From Congress
and Given Right to Wear Male
Attre-Was 81 Years Old.

Watertown, N. Y, Feb. 24.-Dr.
Mary E. Walker, aged eighty-seven
years, died at her home on Bunker
hill, near Oswego, after a long illness.
She was n surgeon in the Civil war.
and congressional medal of honor
was awarded her. She gained consid-
cradle fame by being the only woman
allowed to appear In male attire ty an
act Of congress.
Doctor Walker led a picturesque ca
reer.' Following the Civil war her ac-
tive life was spent chiefly In fighting
for feminine dress reform and wom-
ans right to political suffrage In
which movement she was q pioneer.
She claimed. to be the first American
woman TO attempt to cast a ballot at
an election. She adopted male attire
during the war and continued to wear
it-a black frock coat, trousers and a
high silk hat--and she carried a cane.
Born in Oswego in 1882, Miss
Walker was a graduate physician at
the age Of twenty-three. She entered
the Union army as an assistant sur
geon with the rank of lieutenant and
dressed like her brother officers.

CLEMENCEAU is SHOT
PREMIER OF FRANCE WOUNDED
BY ASSASSIN.
Would-Be Slayer Says Noted States
man "Was Preparing for An
other War"

Paris, Feb. 21.-Premier Georges
Clemenceau was shot three times as
he was on his way to confer with
Colonel House.
Late bulletins say his condition is
considered satisfactory.
Emile Coffin, the man who shot the
premier, says he planned to kill the
French statesman because he "was an
enemy to humanity and was preparing
to start another war"
The French premier is expected to
make an early recovery from the three
wounds inflicted on him by the as
Sassin.
Two of the wounds are mere
scratches. The third is more serious,
but. several hours after the shooting,
the physicians said they feared no
complications and that the only effect
observable was a slight rise in tenn
perature.
The great age of the premier-he is
seventy-SiX-at first caused alarm that
complications would set in, but the
powerful physique with which the
statesman is endowed permitted him
to escape this danger,
The assassin is Emile Coffin, known
in red circles as "Milou." He said
he was twenty-five years old and was
born at Creil He said his home was
in the Montrouse quarter of Paris.
The police, however, do not believe
the papers he holds belong to him and
are inclined to think him Russian.
