SNEETHEARTS AND WIVES GRIEVE AT HARD|NC'S ORDER
Entire City Feels BIoW-Bur- gomaster Sends Regrets to General AIIen-Prepare
 to Bid Farewell
By Associated Press

COBLENZ, Jan. 11.-Gloom, if not consternation, has descended upon the 1,200 soldiers of the Eighth United States infantry, who are now preparing to bid farewell to this lovely spot of the becastled Rhine. They are the last of the American forces on Europe's soil, and it is the end of their perfect day.
 While the news of the withdrawal of the Americans was officially con- firmed only this morning, it was known yesterday afternoon through the message of the Associated Press, telephoned from Paris and speeded throughout the city. The word reached a dance given by the Veterans of Foreign Wars, where the German wives and sweethearts of many of the American troops were among the dancers. They raised their voices in fearful la mentations.
 Is Blow to City
 It was a blow to Coblenz and to- day the face of every man, woman and child expressed a personal grief.
 The world wide political signifi- canoe of the departure of the troops however, is apparently lost to all save the commanding officers. Real sadness was evinced in a message sent to jor General Henry T. Ai- len tonight by the head burgomaster in the name of the people of Cob lenz. The message read:
 We are sorry to see you leave; We do not know how we can do with out you, nor what will happen to us soon. We are sorry to see the Amer jeans go, leaving us so excited and at such dreadful time. However, we trust matters will right themselves and we wish all the best things tc General Allen and his troops"

 "The government of the United States doubtless did not know these things when it announced yesterday that in withdrawing their troops from the Rhine. the departure of the Americans was in no way em- barrassing fer France. It will not prevent us from guarding our mem ories reverently but we fear it will be interpreted as a concession to the present rulers of the German state and will not strengthen the republi- can regime in Germany"
