DANES ARE CONFIDENT
Schleswis Excited on Eve of PIebis.
clte-infux of Voters

Tordern, Feb. by 4. P.D-
Nonresident voters eligible to partici-
pate in the plebiscite to determine the
future status of the province of Schles-
wig are expected to begin arriving here
tomorrow. German adherents are as
Sembling at Hamburg, whence they will
come by train, while Danes will be
brought TO this city by ship from Copen
hagen. Germans say they will bring in
about $4,000 persons, while the Danes
assert they expect 10000.
Schleswig, like the rest of Germany,
is living on a ration basis and the in
tiuX of so many thousands will tax the
country's resources. Tondern. which has
& population of 1900. will attempt to
provide for 400 visitors. who will be
lodged in hotels and private homes.
Anxiety over the result of the voting
is almost as intense here as it is in
Flensburg. The town falls just within
the first zone. which is strongly Danish
and where the zen bloc system of
counting is expected to nullify the big
majority confidently claimed by the Ger
mans in this city. In spite of the strong
feeling existing on each side, there have
been no disorders so far. and British
troops on guard here have found little
to do. The restraint shown by adults
however. is not followed by children
who are constantly fighting.
