CLAIMS
ARE PRESENTED
Baron Sonnino Appears Be-
fore Council of Four
in Paris.

PARIS, April 19.-Italys territorial
claims, especially in the Adriatlc, were
presented to the council Of four today
by Baron Sidney Sonnino Italian for
eign minister.
The fact that Baron Sonnino, and
not Premier Orlando, presented the
Italian case ito the council is regarded
as significant because the foreign
minister is an extremist advocate
OF Italy's utmost claims. 1t was
Baron Sonnino who signed the treaty
Of London, and he now holds Premiers
Lloyd George and Clemenceau to the
pledges made in the treaty.
The question Of an alliance between
France, the United States and Great
Britain is still being discussed by the
newspapers. The Excelsior today says
the latest suggestion is for a special
covenant restricted to defensive meas
ures. This agreement would not be
intended to insure the payment OF
financial reparation.
The text of the preliminary peace
treaty will be transmitted to the press
Friday or Saturday of next week, April
rs or 26, the Petit Parisien says. The
Echo de Paris declares that in case
Germany refuses to sign the prelimi-
nary peace, q special train will imme-
diately be put at the disposal Of the
enemy delegates for their return to
Germany and the allies will take. mili-
tary and naval measures to enforce the
treaty.
The Polish German boundary ques-
tion was finally disposed Of by the
council Of four yesterday. No announce
ment was made of the decisions taken,
but 1t Is understood that Danzig will
be internatlonalized, while the Poles
will have corridor running from that
city to their frontier to give them ac-
cess to the sea,
II was stated in well-informed quar-
ters last night that the situation Of
the peace negotiations was such that
President Wilson probably would be
able to sail homeward May 20 and pos
sibly a little earlier-by May 15 The
belief waA expressed that the presi-
dent would call an extra session Of
congress to convene between May ID
and June i.
Present Indications are that the
peace treaty will be signed before the
presidents departure, Information
reaching the delegates tends to show
that the Germans are not planning to
take UP time and delay the signing OF
tho treaty as they desire q settlement
of the peace terms at the earliest pos
sible moment.

The Staying of Campbell is still q
