REFUSE TO DEAL
WITH ANARCHISTS
Russian Governments Decline
to Enter Conference
NO DEALING WITH SOVIET
Joint Note Sent Peace Conference
RIO Cancellation With BoIshe-
Wiki, Loyal Governments
Assert.
NO DEALING WITH SOVIET

Washington.-Fo Formal rejection OF
the proposal that they meet with del
egates of the Bolsheviki and other
an>.Goyernments at Princes Is
land was handed to the Peace Con-
ference at Paris by representatives
of the Government of Siberia, Arch
angel and Southern Russia, accord
ing to dispatch to the Russian En-
bassy here from Ambassador Bakh-
meteff at Paris.
In their note the three govern
ments said they gladly accepted the
offer OF the Allies to collaborate in
the interior pacifcation of Russia,
but that there could be no concilia-
ton between them and the Bolshe-
Wiki, who were denounced as traitors
and fomenters of anarchy.
Instructions to make this formal
reply were sent by the Minister of
Foreign Affairs at Omsk to Sazonoff
and Tchiakowsky, representing, re-
spectively, the Siberian and South
ern Russia Governments and the
Archangel Government.
The text of the note, as cabled by
Ambassador Bakhmeteff, follows:
Highly approaching the motives
which inspired the Allies in their
proposal of January %, the above
mentioned governments mark with
satisfaction that the conference con-
siders the establishment of order
in Russia as an essential condition
to durable peace in Europe, and
gladly accept the Allies offer to col
laborate in the interior pacification
of Russia. After three years of fight
ing, in which she Loyalty participated
and carried a considerable share of
the common burden, Russia, having
been made powerless further to pros
ecute war, can only in peace recup-
crate from her wounds; but such
work of reconstruction is rendered
impossible by the civil war which is
being advocated and waged by the
criminal usurpers, without regard for
faith or law, whose despotism bur
dens great part of Russia.
Aiming above all TO put an end
to the sanguine tyranny of the Boil
sheyiki, the Russian political groups
who have assumed the task of re-
viving our native land and restoring
the state on true democratic bases
would be grateful to the Peace Con-
ference for the assistance which it
desires to extend to this work OF
national reconstruction. They con-
slider it as certainty taat everything
that will be done to restore to Rus
STA, as soon as interior order is insti-
tuted, its place in the society of ma
tons will eficaciously serve at the
same time to the aims of justice of
humanity and of international peace
for which the conference is striving"

PLANS OUTLINED
FOR GREAT NAVY
Rear Admiral Taylor Before
Senate Committee
SIXTEEN CAPITAL SHIPS
Discussion Of Additional Building
Program Provided In House Bill
Was Deferred, At The Request
Of President Wilson.

Washington.-All of the sixteen
capital ships already authorized for
the navy will be under construction
on the ways within a year, Rear Ad-
miral Taylor, chief of construction,
informed the senate Naval Affairs
Committee during consideration OF
the naval appropriation BILL
These ships will be completed
within four years at maximum
from the time they are started, Adj
miral Taylor estimated, in response
to questions of Senator Lodge. He
said the ways in government and
private yards had capacity Of is
capital ships.
Discussion of the additional build
ing program provided in the House
bill at the request of President Will
son was deferred. The committee
approved appropriations for improve
ments to navy yards totaling $2,800.-
600, which Admiral Taylor said was
necessary to provide for increased
building economically and expedi-
tiously The yards affected with
amounts are:
New York, $250,000; Philadel-
phia, S2,3OO,000; Norfolk, 100000.
Replying to questions of Senator
Penrose, of Pennsylvania, about the,
probable disposition Of the surren-
dered German navy, Admiral Taylor
said he was informed some Of the
submarines already had been divided
among France, England and Japan.
Didn't we get any?" asked Sen
ator Lodge.
I'VE will have to get few
samples" replied the Admiral
Admiral Taylor said he understood
about two-thirds of the German bat
tleships were in the possession of
the Allies and America, but that the
German crews we're still aboard. "Our
officers have not yet been able to go
through the ships" he said.
He said the surrendered ships
would prove of little value save as
"coal barges," and that as scrap
they would be practically worthless.
They could not be used for f1ghting
purposes by any nation except Ger
many, he said, because of their differ
ence in type from Allied warships.
Replying to Senator Penrose's in
Quires, Admiral Taylor said he
thought only minority of navy Off
GERS held the view that the German
ships should be sunk, although the
plan had been advanced.
The committee restored to the bill
provision continuing wartime in
creased pay in the navy, which was
stricken out by the House on a point
of order.

FADED OR GRAY HAIR
1t Mixed with Sulphur it Darkens
so Naturally Nobody
can Tell.

Grandmother kept her hair beauti-
fully darkened, glossy and attractive
with q brew of Sage Tea. and Sulphur.
Whenever her hair took on that dull,
faded or streaked appearance, this
simple mixture was applied with won
derful effect. BY asking at any drug
store for "Wyeth's Sage and Sulphur
Compound" you will get large bot
tie OF this old-time recipe, improved
by the addition Of other ingredients, all
ready to use, at very little cost. This
simple mixture can be depended upon
to restore natural color and beauty to
the hair.
well-known downtown druggist
says everybody uses Wyeth's Sage and
Sulphur Compound now because 1t
darkens so naturally and evenly that
nobody can tell it has been applied
it's so easy to use, too. You simply
dampen comb or soft brush and
draw it through your hair. taking one
strand at time. BY morning the
gray hair disappears; after another
application or two, it is restored to it's
natural color and looks glossy, soft
and beautiful.-Adv.

SCORES ARMY COURT.
General AnseIl Says Soldiers Are
Tried On FIimsy Evidence.


Washington. Trials of soldiers by
c0urt-martial on flimsy evidence and
instances of the trial Of half dozen
Or more men on the same charge by
the same court were cited by acting
Judge Advocate Geenral Ansel before
the Senate Military Committee in sup
port Of the pending bill revising court
martial procedure
Referring tc bringing several accused
men before the same court, Senator
Knox. Of Pennsylvania, remarked
That would be like trying several men
on the same charge before the same
jury
Exactly" said General Ansell, "and
1T would be impossible for the court to
have an open mind"
Questioned as to the issue between
him and other officials Of the War De-
partment as to the need CT legislation,
General Ansell said that since he be-
gan his agitation against, the present
system. judgments of court-martials
had been set aside, but this was unsat-
isfactory, as it invariably resulted in
entirely freeing the accused, as there
is no authority to modify the SEN
fences.

Paris.-Premier Georges Clemen-
ceau was attacked by an anarchist,
Emile Coffin, known as 'Milou.'
Seven shots were fired, three of
which struck the Premier. One bull
let lodged in the muscles of the
shoulder, penetrating deeply, but so
far as is at present known not injur-
ing the spine or penetrating to the
lungs. Two bullets bruised the right
arm and hand, while two other bull
let's are reported to have passed
through the Premier's clothing.
At the time of the attempted as
sassination, M. Clemenceau had just
left his home to drive in motor
car to a conference with Col. Ed
ward M. House, Of the American
peace delegation, and Arthur j. Bal
four, British secretary for foreign
affairs. Though bleeding profusely,
NJ. Clemenceau was able to return
to his home, where he treasured the
members of his household and waved
aside anxious inquirers with, "it is
nothing"
For the present it has been de-
cided by the surgeons that extraction
of the bullet may not be necessary,
and arrangements have been made
to take photographs of the injured
parts.
Coffin, whom the police believed
to be somewhat harmless person
associating with anarchists and aid
ing in their propaganda, declared
that he had planned to kill the Pre-
mier because M. Clemenceau was
the enemy of humanity and was pre-
pairing for another war;
Professors Laubri, Gosset and Cuts
sier examined the wound in Premier
Clemenceau's shoulder. According to
their diagnosis the Premier was
struck in the posterior part of the
right shoulder. blade. The bullet pen
etrated without a visceral lesion. The
doctors reported general and local
conditions as perfect.

London.-The final armistice con-
ditions which the Supreme Council
is considering will be made public be-
fore the end of the month, according
to various newspapers, and they will
include, among the naval conditions,
the demolition of the forts on Heligo-
land and the Kiel Canal: the surren-
der for purposes of destruction of the
German warships now interned and
the opening of the Kiel Canal for
civil transports.
1t is said that Germany will be left
with fleet large enough for defen-
sive purposes.
The naval correspondent of the
Daily Mail, writing of the strong
fortifications on the Island Of He'll
goland, says:
''The summit of the island is one
immense bonn bproof, and the bat
teries are SO placed as to be inyis-
ible from the sea. The heavy guns
there 1-inch and 12-inch weapons
probably were reinforced during
the war by 15-inch guns. The guns
are mounted in steel turrets of great
thickness. All the batteries and OBJ
servation posts are connected by sub
terranean passages, and the roads
leading up to them run along gal
leries which are shell-proof.
1.-THE guns are mounted after the
usual German fashion, so as to give
them an immense range, probably
from 10 to 12h sea miles. To enable
the island to stand the conclusion of
their discharge and resist fire direct
ed against it. G6,000,000 is said to
have been spent before 1910, and
subsequently other large sums were
allotted.
The immense seaplane sheds are
said to have been of the disappearing
type, which could be lowered as a
protection against long-range fire,
There are store shops and repair
works, with all the usual equipment
of a naval base. The Notifications
presumably will be blown up, nut
their destruction will be NJ easy
business, They are of armored com
crete and steel, and a very large
quantity of explosives will be re-
quired.
Paris.-In connection with the
statement of the Lcndcn Daily Mail
that Gerniany's surrendered ships
eventually would be destroyed, the
Temps remarks that there is no APP
parent difficulty in distributing the
German. Austro- Hungarian, Turkish
and Bulgarian craft among the En-
teate nations. The newspaper adds
that the destruction OF these units
has not yet been considered ly-the

Inside this dwelt the queen mother.
After careful observation she was

On account of her great size she was
