States cruiser Pittsburgh paid tribute
to the American dead at Cherbourg
to-day. The American warship and the
French garrison both fred salutes.
Graves of sailors who died in the
battle between the Kearsarge and the
Alabama off Cherbourg on June 10,
1864, were decorated with French and
American flags, as we'll as those of
fourteen Americans who fell in the war
with Germany.
AT La Havrc military honors we're
paid to the American dead by French
troops at a memorial service conducted
by Augustus E. Ingram, American
consul.
At Romagne-sous- -Montefaucon little
flags fluttered on every grave in
Americas largest war cemetery in
France. Wreaths also were placed at
every cross marking the graves. There
was no public ceremony in honor of
Memorial Day. owing to the fact
that the bodies of the soldiers in the
cemetery here are being disinterred, to
be taken back to the United States
