Paris, Jan. 17.--premier Glenn
enceau in the chamber of deputies to-
day gave a warning against false re-
ports concerning the peace confer
ence, citing as an instance n cable
gram addressed to the New York Tri-
bune:

he said, "in which it was said that
President Wilson has threatened to
withdraw all his troops sand himself

he replied to me: What an abomina-
BILE falsehood.
When this dispatch was shown to
Garet Garrett, managing editor of the
New York Tribune. he said:
The Tribune has never received
any such statement from Paris and
none even remotely resembling such
a statement as was denied by Presi-
dent Wilson has never been published

From this incident II appears that,
Notwithstanding assurances to the
contrary dispatches filed by Ameri-
can correspondents in Paris apparent
ly still are being censored and per-
haps withheld by the French authori-
ties. The Paris dispatch shows that
the cable addressed to the Tribune
was shown to President Wilson and
evidently was suppressed at the order
of the French government.

Paris, (Thursday), Jan I6:--Pre-
mjer Clemenceau spoke this after
noon in the chamber Of deputies on
the decision to keep proceedings OF
the peace conference secret. He had
been interpellated by several socialist
deputies and had asked that discus
sion of their questions be postponed,
when he said:
1--WE have not yet found a final
form in which communications from
the peace congress will be made but
in general way the principle of pu-
blicity has met with favor"
Here he was interrupted by Deputy
Mistral. who said:
Except by you, NJ Clemenceau.'
II emphatically deny that state
ment." the premier rejoined. eve all
should like to keep proceedings Sc
eret SO that it may not be said that
such and such a country made such
and such proposition which has
been fought by such and such other
governments. We are unanimous in
thinking that that might create bad
feeling. We think that in the pre-
liminary conversations we must, at all
costs, arrive at an agreement so that
there shall> be solid front at the
general discussion.
"If we wish to form a league of
nations writing phrases is insuffi-
cent There must he prevailing
spirit which will insure the life Of
this league of nations. We would like
to finish this war by full agree
ment of the civilized nations for p
supreme ideal of a better humanity"

In Bastile square, where the rough
or element had cOngregated, a pitched
battle lasted several minutes. The
leader OF the mob was a tall, red-head-
ed woman, who urged her followers
to assault the soldiers. Here again the
infantry gave way, but the cavalry
and policemen held the crowd.
one speaker climbed a pole and ad-
dressed the crowd, saying that it was
useless to attempt to storm the
Place de la ConCorde and reach the
objective. the chamber OF deputies and

Here and there was a machine gun,
inconspicuously placed between the
captured enemy material, and looking
strangely new.
