time to permit the Berlin government
to examine the terms. Again Foch
spoke:
Il am but the mouthpiece of the
allied government. 1t is those gov
ernments that have drawn up the
conditions of the armistice limiting
the delay to 70 hours duration, l
have, therefore. no power to suspend
hostilities without their authorize
ton"
The Germans at once dispatched
messenger TO Spa with credentials and
the request that his journey to Ber-
| lin be Facilitated" When the mes
senger reached the German outposts,
il is related, the troops were so de-
moralized that they fired upon his
white flag Promiscuous volley firing
continued and the emisSary was un-
able TO reach his destination until
the next day. Meanwhile the Ger
man ENJOYS had notified Foch Of their
difficulty and Foch agreed to permit
them to send a German officer to
Berlin by air. A plane was equipped
and ready for the flight when word
was received that the messenger had
reached Berlin.
Captain Recouly declares the arm
istice was signed because Foch and
his staff were convinced Germany
was already in the throes of revo-
luton. The armistice ENJOYS painted
black picture of conditions. While
, the German government was analyz-
ing the terms the plenipotetiaries re-
mained near Foch in the forest at
Rethonde. They were permitted to
leave their train and, guarded by
armed soldiers, exercise in the open
air. On the afternoon of the 10th
Fock informed Erzberger, the head
Of the delegation, that hostilities
would be resumed at II a. m. the
next day. At Z o'clock on the night
Of November 10 the following radio
message. was intercepted by the
French:,
German Government to German
. Plenipotentiaries: The plenipoten-
tiaries are authorized to sign the arm
istice. (Signed) The Chancellor of
the Empire Three ciphered figure:,
at the end of the message proved its
authenticity. More than IL hours of
Ideliberation and debate over the
harsh terms followed. Foch grant
ed some concessions and refused the
others.
Subsequently the wearried French,
English and Germans appended their
signatures to the document, and, by
Encouragement, six hours after the
siging, CT II a. m. of the morning
of the 11th, operations ceased along
all the fronts. Four years of warfare
which haG cost more than 100000
lives was, at an end.

sT HAVE NO TERMS
REPLIED FOCH
Captain Recouly Describes Historic
Scene OF Morning of November
When Armistice Came.

New York, April 27.-Germany's
appeal for an armistice on November
z 1918, met with the laconic reply,
"f have no terms" from Marshal
Foch to Erzberger and the other
plenipotentiaries, according TO Ray
mond Recouly Captain X), French
biographer of Foch and Joffre, in an
article entitled What Foch Really
Said" which will be published in the
May isue of Scribner's Magazine cut
tomorrow.
Capt. Recouly, describing the his
toric scene of the morning November
IL. when the generalissimo of the al
lied forces, attended by few mem
bers of his staff, signed the document
in a railway dining car in forest
near Rethonde, town between Com
p:egne and Scissors, declared 1.-The
sight of butter seemed to fill the Ger
man envoys with joy.''
The radio from the Germans ask
ing for "a cessation of hostilities in
the name of humanity was received
by Foch shortly after midnight on
the 7th and at 1925 a. m. on the Sth
F'och sent back his answer: o'Ihe
German plenipotentiaries will have
to go to the outpost on the main road
from Maubeuge la-Capelle -Guise. =
From this point they were brought
by delayed stages to Rethonde, which
they reached about o'clock in the
morning. Two hours later they were
in the presence of the commander OF
the conquering allied armies.
There was a cold salute" says
Captain Recouly. "a bow In return;
no presentations. The Germans took
their places at the table in the dining
car, where their names were written,
and remained standing. The officers
seemed embarrassed and upset. Not
so the civilians who did not seem to
care at all. They talked familiarly
together; it was impossible to believe
that their country's fate was hanging
in the balance, and that they were
there to sign the most 'Kolossap cap
itulation the world had ever seen."
Foch's piercing eyes, gruff voice
and curt manner were impressive.
ITO whom have I the honor Of speak
ing?' he asked. The Germans replied.
"What is the object of your visit"'
he asked. Then followed this dialog-
ue:
"Erzberger: We have come to in
ouire into the trims of an armistice,
to be concluded On land, on sea and
in the air.
"Foch: 1 have no terms to submit
to you"
Count Oberndorf. the diplomatist
in the German party, interceded: "1f
the marshal prefers, we may say that
we are here to learn the conditions on
which the allies would be willing to
grant us an armistice."
'Foch: / have no terms"
"Erzberger, drawing forth greasy
paper: President Wilson has in
formed our government that Marshal
Foch has been invested with the
power of submitting the allies con-
ditions to the Germans plenipoten-
tiaries."
"Foch: will let you know the al
lies conditions when you have asked
for an armistice. Do you ask for an
armistice?"
"Ja!" exclaimed Oberndorf and
Erzberger together.
"Foch: In that case I will read you
the terms drawn up by the allied gov
ernments." He sat down and the
reading began. 1t lasted an hour, for
the document had to be translated.
The Germans pleaded for an imme-
ciate suspension of hostil ties and for

ever, they do not expect to begin I'M

GAS and OIL
AT MASON WELL

Mason well two and one half miles
northwest of this city revealed favor
able showings of both oil and gas.
Faint traces of oil have been found
for several days, but Tuesdays drill
ing released black crude of in un-
mistakable quantities.
The Mason well was started sew
eral months ago but the carelessness
of an employee in dropping a string
Of tools into the well caused the pro.
moters to abandon the first hole. The
machinery was moved three weeks
ago and a new hole started. Drilling
has progressed steadily and it is un-
thousand feet - dAs---i-----------

charge, is veteran in the drilling
game and he est.r'ates the present
production Of the well at fifty bar
rels per day. Drilling will be con-
tinued and the promoters are conf
dent of a strong well when the next
strata of oil bearing sand is struck.
The excitement brought many oil
scouts from different parts Of the

tions. IA Il
