CERMANY'S REPLY Is
NOT EXPECTED SOON
PEACE DELEGATES BELIEVE 4
WEEK WILL BE REQUIRED FOR
TERMS TO be pIcEsTED.

Paris.-The entente delegates to
the peace conference believe Ger.
many will require at least one week
after receiving the peace treaty be-
fore 1t can be digested and an an
swer prepared and also that the dele.
gates will need about four days for
travel between Berlin and Versailles
and return. Consequently they think
it hardly likely that Germany's an
swer will be available before May 6.
Austria-Hungary, Turkey and Bull
garia probably will be summoned to
Versailles fortnight after Germany
to consider their peace treaties, which
temporarily are overshadowed by the
German negotiations.
There is the greatest uncertainty
concerning the disposition of the
Turkish empire. The entente appar-
emily is anxious to have the United
States accept Armenia and Cilicia a.
a mandatory. but the American dis
position toward this proposal has not
been Indicated. The future Of Con-
atantinople has not been determined.
although some Of the American dele
gates would prefer to have the Unit.
ed States take charge Of 1t rather
than Of undeveloped territory and
convert II into q model city with
modern docks and ideal sanitation.
The British. French and Italians
apparently are willing to have the
United States take over CONSTANT
nople as this would avoid disputes
which might result from European
jealousies. The British have about
10000 troops in the Turkish empire
now, while the French have only l..
500 there.
The desirability now is being dis
cussed of having seperate commits
sion from each of the five big coun-
tries 20 into the Orient and investi-
gate Syria, Palestine and Armenia
rather than have joint commissions
do this work.

Suit by the state TO recover title
to that portion of the bottom of Ferry
lake, east Of the Texas line in Louis
lana. one Of the worlds richest OIL
fields. and $16.oO0.OO0 said to be the
value Of oil taken from it by the
Gulf Refining Company since 1860. Is
being handled bv Attorney General A.
v. Coco against the commissioners Of
the Caddo Levee District and the
Gulf Refining Company at Shreve-
port
Outcome OF the action will BE-
awaited with interest throughout the
state. The question involved is con-
struction Of terms of The grant by
which the state in 1892 gave to the
Caddo Levee Board. with other levee
boards in the state certain state
lands. The immediate question on
which the action is based is whether
the oil fields the state desires TO re-
gain possession of are in fact Take"
or land" Under the bed Of Ferry
lake have been found some Of the
richest oil deposits in the Caddo dis
trict. These were developed by the
Gulf Refining Company under terms
of a lease executed by the Caddo
Levee Board. The petition for recov-
cry by the state says the levee board
has received in royalty and bonuses
from the developing company $1,000
0oO. and oil of the value of $4,000
600 has been taken from the field.
The attorney general AYERS the levee
board had no right to enter into a
lease and no right to accept payment
for 1t. because the property never was
legally conveyed under the terms Of
the states grant to the leveee board.
The states petition declares the
portion Of Ferry lake. east OF the Tex
as line, is in no sense land" and
that the title to 1t did not pass TO the
levee board under the statute author
iying the land grant. and that it there
fore had no right to lease it.

BOLShEvlKI STAY
And ROB AT Will
AMERICAN RED CROSS MEN HAVE
EVIDENCE OF TERRIBLE
CONDITIONS.

Omsk.-Indisputablc evidence OF
the massacre by tine Bolsheviki OF
more than 1000 civilians in and near
the town Of Osa, has been obtained
by Messrs. Simmonds and Emerson,
and DIR. Rudolph Teusler, of the
American Red Cross. who have just
returned from Perm, Osa, and other
occupied Russian territory. Approx
mately 500 persons were killed at Osa
and 1.5G0 in the surrounding districts.
Osa. which had a population of TO-
900. was SO denuded of males by the
Bolsheviki that General Casagrande.
after occupying the town, was obliged
to telegraph to Yekaterinburg for
men to administer civic affairs.
In addition to securing verbal and
documentary evidence. the American
Red Cross officials witnessed the ex-
huming of scores Of victims from
trenches, where they were buried,
sometimes several feet deep IN the
ground, revealed by the digging Of
dogs. The murders were without
provocation. and the victims were
largely Of the thrifty and intelligent
classes.
The Soviet called . meeting and
prepared lists of those to die. The
houses prescribed were visited by
squads. the doors were smashed In.
and the victims dragged to the edge
Of the town and forced to dig their
own graves. Those resisting were
shot in the streets.
|. A survivor testified that he had
seen men thrown into pit and buried
alive. This testimony has been con
fi-med by bodies exhumed, the
clenched hands of which were cling
ing to the mud at the bottom OF the
pit.
The only spark of humanity dis
coverahle was that in confiscating the
belongings of the residents. in some
instances where there was a family of
small children. the family was per-
nitted to retain one cow out Of sew
eral. Occasionally a peasant was
allowed to keep his worst horse.
Careful inquiry. the American 90
servers say. showed that there was
nothing constructive in any town un-
dor Bolshevik control. Money and
property were requisitioned and ex-
travagantly djssipated by individuals
without accounting.
