VISIT OF ALFONSO HAS
HIGH POLITICAL IMPORT

Paris, oct 2O.-King Alfonso who
left Madrid last night for a brief visit
to Paris on his way to England, reach
ed here at 1920 o'clock this morning.
The king was received at the station
by Stephen Pichon, French foreign min
iater and by representatives of the
premier and the minister of interior.
Commenting upon the visit of King
Alfonso, this mornings Paris news
papers point out that Spain having a
seat i'm the executive council of the
society of nations. can no longer be
considered neutral and must assume an
important role in the worlds affairs.
Although the Spanish monarch comes
to France incognito, this morning 5
newspapers, particularly those special
izing in foreign politics, such as the
Echo de Paris and Excelsior, agree in
attaching great political Importance to
his visit, apart from Morocco, They
say Alfonso is coming here to pave the
way for early negotiations, (which the
gravity of the economic and social cris-
is renders imperative"
Although King Alfonso's visit is re-
garded as informal, the program ar
ranged thus far appears likely to keep
him busy during his short stay. He
arrived this morning. President Poin-
care will give a dinner at the Elysees
Palace in honor of the king this even
ing and II shooting party at the presi-
dental preserves the Ramboyillet For

PRESIDENT HAS FAIRLY
GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP
AND IS COMFORTABLE

Washington, oct. 20. President
Wilson's digestive disturbance has sub
sided almost completely, and he was
comfortable today after fairly good
night his physicians announced. They
issued the following bulletin:
The presidents digestive disturb
ance has subsided almost completely.
After 4 fairly good night he is com
Portable this morning"
While recognizing that even any
slight incidental ailment undoubtedly
would have a tendency to increase ner-
vousness and thereby to a certain eX-
tent retard recovery, in White House
circles today there were no indications
that the slight digestive attack suffer
ed yesterday by President Wilson was
the cause of serious concern. In an
nouncng the digestive trouble last
night Rear Admiral Grayson, Mr.. VIII
sons personal physician, said otherwise
the presidents condition was unchanged
and indicated that the patient was more
than holding his own.
1t was pointed out in other quarters
that digestive developments are the
rule rather than the exception in cases
in which persons suffer from nervous
troubles. In addition, it was regarded
as natural that, in the case of the
president, lack of exercise would con
tribute to digestive disorders and un
less they persisted or We're severe there
was little cause for fear they would
seriously delay recovery from the
major indisposition.
