Two ENJOYS Return to Berlin Accompanied by
Several Army and Navy Experts With
Copies Of Treaty
SEND RAPID FIRE OF NOTES TO COUNCIL
BUT HAVE LITTLE CHANCE TO SUCCEED
Big Four Turn Count BrockdOrff- -Ranzaus Note
Prisoners Of War and Labor Over to Experts
for Consideration

/ VERSAILLES, May 14-Although
Count Won Brockdorff- -Rantzau HIM
self discloses no immediate intention
of quitting Versailles, two of his
principal collaborators, Messrs.
Landsberg and Giesberts, have left
for Berlin, from the Care du Nord in
Paris. They were accompanied by
several army and navy specialists and
carried bulky portfolios, bulging with
annotated copies of the treaty.
1t is understood they will disucss
certain phases of the military, naval,
and air terms as well as various eco
nomic points with Chancellor Schei-
demann.
The Big Four, having turned the
Counts notes on prisoners of war and
international labor over to experts for
further consideration, Premier Glenn
enceau's replies are not yet forth
coming. The Count continues busy
in drafting more queries and sugges-
tions upon other topics.
His policy is daily becoming more
clearly defined. It's object is to en-
barrass the Allied and associated gov
ernments with interrogatory commu-
nications SO numerous and complicat-
ed that it will be impossible to reply
, them in the time allowed for sig

= invei"le Premier Clemenceau,
President Wilson and Premier Lloyd
George into personal contact with
him across the conference table.
There is scant likelihood that the
scheme will succeed. Indeed, it be-
comes daily doubtful if he will re-
main at the head of the German del
egation to the end. 1t seems almost
certain that he will be obliged to go
to Berlin within a few days. for dis
patches indicate that he will find it
impossible to man out his final course
without consultation with Germany's
governmental chieftains.

EDITH CAVELL MET
INSTANT DEATH AT
HANDS OF GERMANS
German Ruthlessness Sent
Four Bullets Into This
English Nurse
BODY NOW IN ENGLAND
Coffin Escorted by Soldiers and
Funeral Services, Held in West
minister Abbey
BODY NOW in ENGLAND

BRUSSELS, Sunday, via Montreal
The removal of the body of Edith
Cavell for interment in England took
place yesterday.
Edith Cavelf was the English nurse
who was executed summarily by the
Germans in 1915 for aiding prison
ers to cross the frontier into Hol-
land. Her body was exhumed at
Brussels on March II and placed in
a double coffin of zinc and oak and
conveyed to the Tir National. The
body was found clothed in black
dress under a blue cloak, and there
was a black hat beside it. The body
was well preserved and the features
were perfectly recognizable.
1t is understood that the examin-
alton following the exhumation rc
vealed that the nurses death was in
stantaneous. She was struck by four
bullets, two of which entered the
right side and two the left, one Of
them piercing the heart.
On Tuesday the coffin was placed
o n gun carriage drawn by six black
horses and taken to the %Gare du
Nord. Military honors viii be rem
dered at the Tir National and at the
station. The long route of the cor
tege was arranged in order to enable

Irritated at Exclusion in the
Alliance Against
Germany
WILSON is BLAMED
Thinks Italy Should Be Included in
Anglo-Franco-American Alliance
Against Germany
ROME, May IA ASSOCIATED Press)

ROME, May IA ASSOCIATED Press)
The discomfort and irritation of the
people are again growing because of
news from Paris that Italy is
not likely to get what she claims on
the eastern shore Of, the Adrlatlc.
The Messaggero says:
president Wilson is obstinately
obdurate in his views regarding FL
ume, showing that he has not chang
ed his mind"
Other reasons for dissatisfaction
are the Anglo -Franco-American al
lance, from which Italy was exclud-
ed; the asserted project that the for
mer Austrian merchant marine will
be divided among the allies, although
it is held that it belongs entirely to
Italian firms; the clause in the treaty
with Germany saying that the three
principal Powers were sufficient to
ratify the treaty-thus, it is alleged,
again excluding Italy-and the re-
ported scheme to place Ethiopia
(Abyssinia) under the protection sof
France.
All the newspapers Of Rome pub
lish adverse comments on these sub
jects.
By a ministerial decree the workers
on the Italian railways receive an
eight hour day, with one day off duty
weekly.

TRIAL BY ALLIES

RUMORS OF SUICIDE
Servants are Sworn to Secrecy and
How the Kaiser Took the News
Could Not Be Learned
OF SUICIDE

AMERONGEN, May 14-An off
cial abstract of the preliminary peace
terms published in the Dutch news
papers, which was translated and
read to the former German Emperor
has aroused considerable excitement
among the members of the Hohen-
zollern party. An inkling concerning
what the Entente intended to do in
connection with bringing William
Hohenzollern to trial had reached the
German officials earlier in the week.
They communicated the information
to the former Empress, who displayed
signs of marked emotion, but decided
to await the appearance of fuller
official report before making the news
known to her husband.
A special messenger motored to
Arnhem Thursday to procure a copy
of the local newspapers. Meanwhile
the former Emperor continued his
usual occupation of saving logs, but
apparently he is suffering from ever
growing excitement. His saw work
ed as never before, and his physi-
clan, DR.. Forester who assisted him,
was completely exhausted at lunch
time.
How the former Emperor took the
news the correspondent was unable
to ascertain, as every one in the
castle is sworn to secrecy regarding
happenings. Rumors were circulated
in the village that he attempted to
commit suicide by hanging but these
are considered incorrect, since his
attendants are quite calm.
BUSINESS is BULLY!

MANAGER EGGEBRECHT TO
RESIGN SEPT. 10th

Manager Otto Eggebrecht of the
Soldiers and Sailors club will resign
his position on September 10th. The
building, it is believed, will remain
open for some time after that, though
no provision for maintenance for a
definite length of time has been made
by the city council. The club has
been much used as a rest and recrea-
tion room by many returned soldiers.
1t is well equipped now, with desks,
card tables, table full of late mag
azines, and phonograph through the
efforts of Manager Eggebrecht and
the city council which appropriated
money for furnishings.
From some there have come sug-
gestions that an effort should be eX-
tended towards obtaining a perman-
ent club for ex-service men, similar to
the Merrill Soldiers and Sailors club.

WILL BRING COUNTY FAIRS
UNDER STRICT EYE is
ANNOUNCEMENT

The state board of health will bring
every county fair under strict sur
veillance this year, according to the
announcement of state authorities,
who declare that all health regula-
tions win be rigidly enforced. Coun-
ty fair arrangements will be expected
to carefully comply with all regula-
tions of which they have been in
formed. Suggestions for the mainten-
ance of adequate and sanitary toilet
facilities is one of the things which
each agricultural society will have to
contend.
Games of chance or shows of low
calibre will not be tolerated, and hotel
and restaurant inspectors will see that
state health laws are observed by all
lunch stands located on the fair
grounds. Exhibitors will be required
to live up to the rules and regula-
tions and it is reported that in case of
failure to observe the states pro-
visions, state aid to the association
in question will be withdrawn.
Lunch stands must keep garbage in
covered cans, which can be emptied at
proper intervals. Foods must be
wholesome and satisfactory way to
keep them, whether on ice or in some
sort of refrigerating plant, must be
provided by the lunch stand proprie-
tor. Flies must be guarded against
in every reasonable way.
The first of the fairs was held over
week ago. This year the county
fairs OF Wisconsin will run through
the first part of October. The reforms
initiated by the state are said to be
extensive and in every part of the
state favorable criticism has come of
improvements.

SUGAR PRICE ILLEGAL IF
ABOVE IL CENTS

Department of justice agents are
gathering information throughout
Wisconsin, il is reported by District
Attorney Wolfe at Madison, of the
selling price of sugar. A conference
of Magaus Swenson, food administra-
tor of Wisconsin, during the war and
the attorney, resulted Thursday in the
announcement that sugar must be sold
for eleven cents. Despite the claims
by grocers that they have paid whole
salers 111zc pound the order must
be complied with. Wholesalers. 1t is
reported, will be dealt with strictly
if they do not comply with the order
to make it possible for retailers to sell
sugar at the fixed price.
