THINK ALLIES WILL YIELD.
Washington Of Opinion That Wilson
Has Blocked Adriatie Deal.

Washington, Feb. 20.-The position
Of the American government on the
Adriatic settlement has been made so
plain in tho reply to the allies note
that officials believe the way to fur
thor argument has been closed. 1t
was said today that by this view they
did not mean that the door to further
exchanges had been shut.
On the contrary in the reply to the
presidents latest communication a
final agreement on the question is
expected.
The president thruout the ex-
change Is understood to have made 1t
clear that the United States cannot
accept the settlement reached by the
allied premiers and which was made
the subject Of the ultimatum to
Jugo- Slavia last month. The presi-
dent 10 also said to have made 1t
equally clear that enforcement Of the
Adriatic terms Of the treaty Of Lon
don win be wholly unacceptable TO
the United States.
z The presidents note IL still In the
hands Of Acting Secretary Polk, and
IL was said At tho state department
that It would not be dispatched today.
Il probably will be put on the cables
tomorrow.
Il was stated officially that the
question Of giving publicity to the
exchanges would wait on the delivery
OF the presidents note and acquies-
oence Of the other governments.
At the state department 1t was
said the summary of the allied note
.cabled from Rome by the correspond
ent on LaNacion, Of Buenos Aires,
and published today in this country
was every inaccurate. fragmentary
and garbled." Officials continued to
refuse to disclose what points had
been raised by tho premiers.
