PREM|ERS BOW
To WILSON IN
LATEST N D 7 {
Invite Cooperation in New
Effort to Settle Dispute
Over Adriatic

WASHINGTON, March 5.-The text
of the note from the French and Brit
ish premiers on the Adriatic situation,
to which President Wilson's reply was
delivered in London today, was made
public tonight by the state department.
1t conforms closely to the summary
cabled from London, February II and
emphasizes the Importance attached by
the premiers to the fact that Mr.. Will
son had previously expressed his will
ingness" to accept a settlement arriv-
ed at by direct negotiations between
Italy and Jugo-Slavia.
1t has been assumed here that the
presidents reply will be found, OH pub
lication, probably Monday, to deal
mainly with the invitation of the pre-
mfers that he join them in formally
proposing such negotiations to the
Italian and Jugo-Slav governments.
The premiers' note, after reiterating
that they 'have never had the inten-
ton of making a definite settlement of
the questions raised without consider
ing views of the American govern
ment," adds that the execution of
three views" contained in the presi-
dents memorandum is for them "a
matter Of very great interest and i'm
portance." "All the more So" the note
continues, "since it shows that the
United States government does not
wish to disinterest themselves from
the general question of peace"
In expressing agreement that direct
negotiations between the Italians and
Jugo-Slavs would be the ideal way of
settling the question" the premiers
said they were ready to withdraw
their settlement proposals of Decem-
ber and January 20 as they felt that

ing the fact Mr.. Crathern displayed

The Turks had been resenting
French occupation of Marash and
other Cilician cities for many weeks,
Mr.. Crathern reports, and Algerian

fire from the Turks.

WASHINGTON. March s. - With
another failure to ratify the peace

consultation with President Wilson
before the decisive vote is taken.
They wished to know definitely how

Some Democrats wera undo~stood
also to wish to know what measures
the president would oxnect cone-nss
to take to relieve the country from
a war status while a decision at the
polls on the treaty was admitted.
The move for such a conference, in
itiated long aso among sor,e elements
Of the party in the senate, took defin-
ite form when Senator Hitchcock OF
Nebraska administration leader, sent
a letter to the White House asking
that the president talk over the Sit

North Carolina, in charge Of the Dem
ocratic side OF the new movement to
negotiate treaty compromise.
1t was indicated however, that the
appointment with Senator Simmons,
II one were arranged. would be only
preliminary to conference with
committee of senators chosen to take
up with him the whole treaty prob
lem. In some quarters it was intimat-
ed that senators from both parties
eventually might meet with that
president in an effort to reach a
compromise.
In conjunction with Senator Wat
son Of Indiana, acting for the Re
publican side, Senator Simmons has
sounded out the sentiment OF all SEN
ate elements, and when he goes to

COURT HOUSE, Montesano, Wash.
March Excitement approaching
pandemonium swept the court room
today during the examination of D. P.
Timothy Edmunds OF Seattle, former
pastor of Greenwood Park Presbyteri-
an church, a mission under the direc-
tion of DR.. III. A. Matthews, but now
an investigator for the defense in the
trials of ten /. w. w. charged with the
murder Of Lieut.. Warren o. Grimm, at
Centralia, Armistice day.
Edmunds, who has been referred to
frequently in the examination OF de-
fense witnesses, was called by Geo.
Vandeveer, defense attorney, to prove
there was nothing improper IN his
work on behalf of the accused men.
Special Prosecutor w. H. Abel, inter
rogating the witness, produced a con-
fidential letter left accidentally by Ed
munds several weeks ago in a pile of
papers that NJ. Polin claimed. The let
ter, from Edmunds, was addressed to
Vandeveer, though it never reached
him. While conceding that the Armis-
tice day shooting was perhaps legally
indefensible, the writer suggested a
defense might be prepared along that
line.
