REPLY TO GERMANS
DUE TOMORROW
Indications Are There Will
Be Little Modifi-
cation.

There is reason to believe, accord
ing to dispatch from Paris, that the
Council of Four will reach decision
by Thursday as to the reply that will
be made to the German counter pro-
posals to the terms of peace. Allied
experts are at work on the reply and
meetings are being held in Paris to-
day for the purpose of drafting mem
oranda to be submitted to the Council
of Four. 1t is probable that this work
is well under way.
Premier Clemenceau is understood
to maintain firmly that there can be
no important changes in the clauses
of the treaty to which the Germans
have entered their strongest objec-
tions. There are indications, how
ever, of strong undercurrent of SEN
tfment to meet the German offer OF a
definite sum of 100,O00,000,000
marks as indemnity instead of the in
determinate sum that might be de-
under the terms as presented.

Have Been Expos

VACCINATION URGED
Cases Exist in a Number of.
Towns Along the
River.

Marion county is now threatened
with another epidemic of smallpox ac-
cording to DR.. L. N. Yost, county
health officer. There are now a num-
ber of cases at Kingmont Bentons
Ferry, and Gray's Flats, but according
to City Health Physician II. l.. Criss
no cases have been reported p Fair
mont.
Some of the cases which have been
found have been going about the coun-
Sty for some time not knowing what
was wrong with them, and for this rea.
son the spread of the malady is only to
he expected
DR.. Yost has prepared the following
letter for the West Virg.nian in which
he explains the-situation and urges
The Importance OF vaccination:
We desire to warn the public that
Marion county is threatened with an
epidemic of smallpox. We now have
cases at Benton's Ferry, Kingmont,
Grays Flats and the great number Of
exposures that have come from these
cases will no doubt cause many hun
drcd of new cases.
Some of these cases have been rid
/ ing over the county, broken out, not
xnowlng what they had, thus exposing
Z hundreds. There Is just one thing that
will stop this epidemic and that is vac
cinadon. l again warn the public
that it is best to attend to this at
once.
All cases will be promptly quaran-
lined as soon as reported, and If nee
sssary patients will be placed in the
pest house.
Very truly,
l.. n. YoST.
