PARIS. February 10.-How the allies
| accepted President Wilson's fourteen
points in connection with armistlce
negotiation was revealed for the nrst
| time by the Echo de Paris today. II
was at a meeting in the office OIL
Stephen Pichon. foreign minister, on
November 3, 1918. Previous meetings
at Versailles had fixed the military
conditions of an eventual armistlce
and the government chiefs had met
| for final deliberation.
David Lloyd George, the British pre-
! mier. the Echo de Paris says. turned
to Col. House and declared: IF we
have thoroughly understood President
Wilson's thought the armistice nego-
tiations which the American govern
I ment is disposed to open with Ger
many in concert with the allied pow
ers are subordinated by the accept
ance by the said powers of the princi-.
pies and conditions of peace dehned
by the President on January and
in his subsequent speeches. In word
we must give our assent to the four
teen points"
Col House is reported to have an
swered that was so. Premier Clemen-
ceau broke in: LAS for the fourteen
points l have not read them yet. Let
me know what they are"
Col. House began, but after he had
read the first point (relative to open
at"). M. Clemenceau exclaimed: That
cannot be accepted. You cannot ne
gotiate in the middle of public
street"
A. ]. Balfour, British secretary of
state for foreign affairs. explained
this point meant only publication of a
result and not the steps by which they
were reached, and the French premier
answered. "In that case my objec-
tions fall 20 the ground"
Reading of the second point, in which
Mr.. Wilson declared in favor of the
freedom of the seas brought a reser-
vation from Premier Lloyd George. but
the important third point (regarding
the removal of economic barriers and
others) went through quickly. Only
" hen the seventh (regarding the evacua-
ton and restoration Of Belgium). the
eighth, declaring all French territory
| must be freed and restored and that the
wrong done France by Prussia in 1871
(relative to Alsace Lorraine) and the
eleventh Tin which the future status of
Rumania, Serbia and Montenegro was
considered) were read, were there fur
| ther reservations, as the matter Of rep
| arations entered into the situation.
After all the points had been read M.
Clemenceau turned to Col House. say
ing: +In case we reject the fourteen
points what would happen?'
president Wilson would consider
conversations he had engaged in with
the allies on the subject Of the armi-
stice as ended" was Col Houses reply.
Would he also consider as ended
the conversations he began with the
Germans in October?" asked the French
premier.
Il can give you no assurance Of that -
replied Col House.
At this decisive moment Premier
| Clemenceau pronounced the sacramental
adopted" Premier Lloyd George has
| tened the rapid decision by saying:
I'VE reserve to ourselves the right to
formulate reservations as regards
freedom Of the seas and reparations."

INQUIRY ASKED OF CAUSE
OF "BREAKDOWN" IN P. 0.
New York Merchants Association
Assert Complaints Of Delays
Show Low Efficiency.

NEW YORK, February 1.-THE
Merchants Association Of New York
announced last night that a congress
| sional investigation of the Causes
| which have brought about the break
| down of the postal SERVICE" has been
requested through Senator Charles E.
| Townsend, chairman of the conmitte ee
on post offices and post roads. Numer-
GUS, and continuous complaints as to
| mail delays, it was stated, show that
the postal service 'is now and long
has been at a low level of efficiency in
speed and regularity of movement"
The points essential to adequate in
vestigation by Congress of the Post
Office Departments efficiency are sum-
married in a letter to Senator Town
send as follows:
| Reduction Of the railway post office
railway trains in the smallest possi-
BILE space; assortment of mails In nu-
| merous terminal stations instead OF
during transit; elimination of pneu-
| matte tubes and the substitution of
automobiles for the local transpor-
tation of mails"
The association comedies that the
cost oM Mservice has been reduced, but
| conteh s that it has been effected
"only by a general widespread and
the service" and urges the investiga-
| tion In order that proper standards
may be restored"
Senator Townsend was further in
! formed that records Of the association
| for 1919 show that, of 1900 letters
handled, 2,229 or 20 per cent, were de-
layed. Slow movement of hrst-class
mail was particularly noticeable in
the tests, while third and fourth-class
mail sis subject to far greater delay,
often so extreme as to destroy useful
ness" Losses by theft of parcels post
shipments are so serious, it Is charged,
that insurance rates have become al
most prohibitory.

and who have since resided in New Ulm
on South Washington street, will
make their future home in Santa Anna,
Cal. That is the decision they reached
after few months sojourn in Southern

They were accompanied on the trip
by Marc Heimerdinger, a nephew,
who was recently mustered out of the
service. They consumed seven weeks
enroute, camping out and taking the
trip leisurely. Upon their arrival at
Santa Anna they met the Fred Heimer-
dinger family of DraktsN. D.,who ha: e
just recently located at that place
They liked it so well that they pur-
chased a residence with an acre of
ground and will make that their home.
Nh! Hoffman, came back here last
w ednesday, sold his residence property
here to Frank Niemann and expects,
to return to California August 25th
if he can settle and arrange all his
business affairs by that time. The
friends of the .Hoffmanns regret very
much to have them leave New Ulm,
but wish them success and happiness
in their new home'

wrecked on the M. & St. L. road, about
three miles west Of Winthrop, early
Tuesday morning of last week. For

The hum of the threshing machine is
heard in all parts of the county, aug
mented by the continued drouth,
which permitted threshing operations
to 60 on unhampered. The yield of
oats, rye and barley are very good in
this section this year, but the wheat
crop is considerably short, averaging
from 8 bushels or even less, up to
about Is bushels per acre. Black
rust did considerable damage to wheat,
while the other grain crops were not
affected by it, a circumstance that is
rather out of the ordinary.
