PITH OF THE
VIC DRY NEW S

Premier Orlando notifies MIR. Ciemen-
ceau, president of the peace con-
ference, that as result of Presi-
dent Wilson's manifesto on the
Fiume issue the italian delegation
decides to leave Paris for Rome.
London regards the situation in Paris
as very grave. Dispatches to Eng
Iish newspapers from italy say that
country will not be responsible for
the peace CT lower Italy if her
Fiume claims are not granted by the
peace conference.
Officials of the North Russian govern
ment denoUnce the scheme for feed
ing BoisheVist Russia.
Great Britain advised Italy in her own
interests to forego some of her
claims, but if the Italians insist on
their rights under the treaty Great
Britain and France are prepared to
honor their signatures, in which
case, as pointed out to Italy, Fiume
must go to Croatia.

rived in Berlin with a large staff
The German peace pienipotentiaries
have been instructed not to sign the
treaty of peace unless it provides
for the immediate return of German
prisoners of war.
Italian delegates hold aloof from meet
ines Of the Peace Conference Coun-
Gil of Four, announcing that it is
useless to take part in further con-
ferences unless the Allies agree to
their territorial demands.
Belief prevails in London that the Ger
mans are likely to bak at signing
the peace treaty without negotia-
tons, and that the Scheidemann gov
eminent may not be in power when
the time comes to act, thus render
ing further military occupation of
Germany necessary.

Nations reached Washington.

FIVE-cENT BREAD FAR OFF.
Barnes Says World Wheat Supply
PrecIudes Drop in Price.

New York.--Five cent bread is still
a long way off, according TO Julius
Barnes, named by President Wilson
as United States Wheat Director to
handle the 1919 wheat crop under
the law guaranteeing the farmer a
minimum of $226 bushel for wheat.
Because OF :tic heavy demand, Mr..
Barnes said wh...lt is now selling at
from II to 81 cents a bushel above
the guaranteed price.

WILSON BALKS
FIUME PLAN
PreSidet lnvokes Moral Pressure
OF World in Adriatic Dispute
With Italy.
REJECTS SECRET TREATY.
Challenge Shocks Paris-Old-S School
European Diplomats Upset by
Presidents Flat-Fcoted Decla-
ration-lssue Affects Japan.

Paris.-President Wilson's emphatic
declaration that he will not yield on
the Adriatic question created the most
profound sensation in the peace con-
ference He has thrown down the
gauntlet to the supporters of secret
treaties in manner which almost
took away the breath of the delegates
who have been urging compromises on
points covered by many secret docu-
ments and at variance with the Presi-
dents fourteen points.
President Wilson's sweeping Gecla-
ration. while aimed directly at the
AdriatIc problems, also reaches the
Kiaochow controversy, in which ia
pan relies upon secret agreements
Italy in 1917 to support her in her
claim to the concessions held by Ger
many in Shantung.
The peace delegates generally re-
gard President Wilson's statement as
a challenge which will once for all
dispose of the question whether Sc
cret documents, of which many ma
tionS participating in the war We're
ignorant, are TO figure in the peace
following an armistice in which all
the allies pledged gave no regard to
secret treaties.
The Italian situation overshadowed
all other questions in Paris and was
the sole subject of conversation in
official and unofficial circles.
When it became known that the
Italian premier, vittorio Orlando was
again absent from the session of the
came current Signor Orlando re-
manned ut Italian headquarters, but
messengers carried him many notes.
Proposals and counter proposals
We're made between the members of
the British. French and Italian dele
cations, and numerous stories of com
promises were circulated. These were
suddenly discredited by the issuance
of President Wilson's statement,
showing that the President was not a
party of the proposed concessions,
which were ch'ra. based on the sup
position that Fiume could be given
to Italy.
The idea. which had been preva-
lent in Paris, that the Adriatic sit
uation was game of chess. in which
the most skillful diplomats would win
regardless of the armistice conditions,
was suddenly banished by President
Wilson's action.

Native hunters around Sitka report very few deer killed the past open season and many tables which were wont to be supplied with venison have been entirely without meat. Several explana- tions are offered for the scarcity of deer. Some attribute it to the long, severe winter of last year when thousands starved to death; others say that the warm fall has enabled the deer to remain far back in the inaccessible parts of the mountains. Others say that the many bear which have roamed the beaches this season have driven the deer away or destroyed them.

Reindeer herders and owners are directing the for nation of the organization and are limiting charter membership to Eskimos in the reindeer busi- ness. Later they may admit hunters and trappers. A ritual,

 Branch lodges may be established in the Eskimo settlements along the Siberian coast across the Der ing sea from Nome. Headquar- ters will be at Nome it is planned.
