to the peace congress complained bit? terly this morning to ono of the French liaison officers of the un ex- ? pected harshness of the conditions of ; pence. The delegates said they had c.\ pectcd from the newspaper reports , that the demajids in many respects ' would be far-reaching, but were not ; prepared for the terms as actually , laid down in the printed copy of the document. Intimations lead to the belief that two or three members of the Germ?n peace delegation probably will return j to Germany to consult their govern- i ?nont, the others remaining at Ver- \ sailles. "Remaining at Versailles" A copy of the conditions handed yes? terday to the German delegation is now t?n its way to Berlin, a courier having let Versailles late last night ? with the firat report from Count Von i Brockdorff-Rantaau on the proceedings i of the peace congress. The German delegation worker virt- i ually all night preparing detailed re ports and copies of the speeches. The clicking of several scores of type? writers w.ts heard until dawn in the throe hotels occupied by the German mission. All was quiet at German headquarters this morning, as the del? egates were fatigued by their long, ' drawn out labors, and they did not show themselves. No Reply on Treaty Germany ha i not yet submittd an/ communication with regard to the peace treaty. All the exchanges between the dele? gation at Versailles and the home gov? ernment are beging kept secret. A copy of the treaty is well on its way to Berlin. A German courier left at 9 o'clock last night bearing it with Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau's first report on the negotiations. Has Direct Wireless BERLIX, May 8 (By The Associated Press).-Wireless communication be? tween \auen and the Eiffel Tower in Paris has been resumed so that the German peace delegation can keep in close touch with Berlin. The Foreign Office here is connected with Nauen by direct wire, and the peace delegation has a direct wire from Versailles to the Eiffel Tow-er. Both wireless stations are equipped with receiving apparatus.

Indeed the entire half hour which it took Count von Brockdorff Rantzau to deliver his reply to Premier Clemenceau, was a period of tenseness for President Wilson, Premier Clemen? ceau and Lloyd George, and, in fact, for virtually everyone present. ; The speech was translated sentence ty sentence by the German interpre? ters, who did not fail to bring out with &?2!$Sli&3&a*S<^^ Linen Collars Our Linen Collars are carried in stock in the leading shapes for street and dress wear.

Half France's Youth Lost Lives in the War "PARIS,, April 30 (Correspondence of The Associated Press').?Cap? tain Andre Tardieu, head of the Gen? eral Commission for Franco-Ameri? can War Matters, announced that he had mado an investigation into the number of French soldiers killed between the apes of twenty and thirty-one. He found that 58 per | cent had lost their lives. That is, that more than half of France's youth had disappeared. _ full emphasis every sharp phrase, and | the three Allied statesmen put their j heads together in evident anger at j more than one of the German spokes- ! man's cutting utterances, as if they were deliberating upon the advisibility of an immediate answer. Leaders Discuss Address The programme was unaltered, how ever, and when the German plenipoten? tiary had finished, Premier Clemenceau arose and put the customary phrase: "Has any one further observations to make"" and when there was no re? sponse, continued. "I then declare the session closed." The Allied triumvirate remained after the German delegates had left for a half-hour discussion of the new situation. ___ The scene within the hall during the ceremony had none of the pomp and j glitter of earlier peace conferences - : no display of court and military uni forms such as marked the congresses ! of Berlin and Vienna, no theatrical ceremonial. It seemed to gain in im pressiveness by these very circum? stances. At the head of the table the striking faces of Premier Clemenceau, Lloyd George and President Wilson attracted every eye. Marshal Foch, sitting with ? the French delegation at the head of one of the side tables was another conspicuous figure. The bearded faces of the Serbian statesmen, M. Pachitch, and the Greek Premier, M. Venizelos, as well as the familiar head of Ignace Jan Paderewski, the Polish Premier, also stood out from the mass of dele? gates. The impassive faces of the Jap? anese representatives, the Oriental linements of the Chinese, the brown countenances of the Arabs from Hed- ; jas, and the presence, even of the two ' delegates from Liberia and Hayti, gave evidence, that this was really a world congress. Tlie Cermans, who entered the cham ber with all the confidence of victors, j bore themselves without a trace of j nervousness and acted as if they were j taking part in the deliberations on j equal terms with their adversaries. The ceremony, which attracted to ; the hall a crowd of correspondents j and officials who began arriving at an j early hour, started at 2:20 o'clock when servants brought in huge arm- j fuis of the printed conditions of peace and distributed them, one copy to each j delegation, Germans only were ex cepted, their copy being delivered to them at 3:17 o'clock, during the trans? lation of Premier Clemenceau's speech. At 2:25 o'clock Premier Clemenceau and Stephen Pich?n, the French For- ' eign Minister, entered for a final sur? vey of the arrangements and then ] left to await the arrival of President j Wilson. Secretary of State Lansing ; also appeared for an instant at 2:30 j o'clock. The minor delegates were now streaming into the room and virt- j ually all were assembled in their ? places, when at 2:55 o'clock President j Wilson, accompanied by the other ! American delegates and Premiers Clem- i enceau and Lloyd George entered to? gether and moved informally to their places at the head of the table. italians Greet Wilson Premier Orlando and Foreign Min? ister Sonnino of Italy followed an in? stant, later. Both walked over to shake hands with President Wilson and Premier Clemenceau before seeking their places. While the assemblage was seating it? self without signal at two or three minutes after 3 o'clock Premier Clem? enceau and President Wilson engaged in an animated conversation. Premier Lloyd George and Arthur Balfour, the ; British Foreign ?Secretary, also in? dulged in a chat. Premier Paderewski during this interlude made a belated appearance. After a five minutes' wait Colorel Henry, the French liaison officer, ap? peared in the chamber, heralding the approach of the German delegation. The Germans entered the door an tn stant later, preceded by a functionary of the French government wearing the glittering chain of his office, who an? nounced in a loud voice, "Messieurs, the German delegates." There was some little confusion among the Ger mans while they wore finding their : proper places. Count von Brockdorff Rantzau, who entered gloves in hand, took the centre chair, with his live col? leagues and Director von Stockham mer, of the Foreign Office, flanking him on either hand. Five German secre? taries and their interpreters took their places at *ables in the rear. Speech Translated Twice Premier Clemenceau, as President of the Congress, rose and declared the session operjed. He started immediately upon his opening speech, pausing to permit this to be translated into Eng? lish and German by French ??nterpret ers. The translation into the German was decidedly faulty and halting. When the Premier concluded with the customary phrase: "Has any one ob? servations to make," Count von Broek dorff-Rantzau raised his hand, but he was not recognized until the Promicr's remarks had been translated. During the translation, Paul Dufasta, the general secretary of the assemolage, proceeded across the open space in the centre of the rectangle and deposited B copy of t he peace treaty before the head ?f the German delegation. "Count von Brockdorff-Rantzau has the floor," said Premier Clemenceau, as soon as the translation had been fin jshed. The head of the German delegation. did not rise like Premier Clemenceau, reading his speech sitting, but it was remarked by some that his apparent discourtesy to his adversaries may have been dictated by his physical condition. Ranlzau's Words Anger After the first sentence of the count's speech had been delivered in Ger- ! man an interpreter began the French ' translation, fhe words did not reach the head of the table distinctly and Premier Clemenceau called for a i louder utterance. He was equally dis- \ satisfied with the second attempt of ; the interpreter, and two of the German | officials finally left their places with ; the German delegation and moved across to the head or '.Tie table to de? liver the German plenipotentiary's bold and frequently offensive message, sentence by sentanCo, right into the face? of premiers Clemenceau, Lloyd I Cieorge and President Wilson. Oount von Brockdorff-Rantzau's gut? tural German repeatedly rang out jn strong emphasis on particularly vigorous phrases or words of his speech, as, for instance, when he de? clared that, the admission by Germany of sole guilt for the wer would bo "a lie," and when he forbade the Allies to speak of "cruelty and murder," in view of the sufferings and death? of : German civilian? under tho blockade ' and after the armistice. The interpreter who gave the English version m?de the most of hi? oppor tunity, both in voice and selection of words, and the bold and unrepentant declarations of the German peace dele? gate, as thus brought out, gave rise to a murmur of indignation in the chamber. The German delegates were the first to leave Trianon Palace after the meet? ing. Before their appearance the mili? tary guard had been witdhrawn so as to avoid any semblance of military honor. Von Brockdo*-;r-Rantzau and Herr Landsberg came out first, and the whole party was speedily shown into automobiles, which left immediately under a British and French escort and moved through crowded streets, the absolute silence of which was oppres? sive. The Germans were conspicuously un? diplomatic in their appearance, and they suggested, rather a party of travel-stained tourists u;5 they en? tered their motor cars. Crowds Watch Delegates The arrival and departure of von Brockdorff-Rantzau and his colleagues marked tense moments for the thou? sands who lined the roped-off streets of Versailles and watched the entrance to the palace grounds. The motor cars carrying the German'delegation did not leave the hotels where the enemy dele? gates aro quartered until all the Allied delegates were within the palace. The military guard wa.i withdrawn from the palace entrance and the crowd was ap? prised of the fact that the Germans were approaching. No insults were offered the enemy representatives, the throngs standing absolutely mute and in breathless si? lence as the French orderlies opened the automobile doors and French and British officers conducted the Germans into the palace. The reception of the German dele? gation at the palace was cold. A group of Allied officers standing on the stops at the main entrance to the Trianon Palace either saluted per? functorily, or avoided saluting by turning away from the Germans. Allies to Demand Billion of Austria Treaty Now Being Formed Changes Old Frontiers ; Envoys Leave Vienna PARIS, May 8 (By The Associated Pressl.-The French Foreign Office re? ceived information to-day that the Aus? trian peace delegation had left Vienna last night and would reach St. Germain probably to-morrow. The council of four, with Premier Orlando of Italy present, began to-day to arrange the programme for the presentation of peace terms to the Austrian, Hungarian and Bulgarian delegates. The Austrian treaty has begun to take form. Portions of it already have been drafted. It appears that instead of Germany being required to pay the entire in? demnity demanded by the Allies a con? siderable sum will be demanded o? Austria, the estimate of this sum at present being 5,000,000,000 crowns (,$1,000,000,000). New Frontiers Are Fixed This indemnitv provision and the de- I limitation of the frontiers of the new] state will be the main features of the treaty now in the making. Provision is to be made ior dividing Austria-Hun? gary's pre-war debt among the new states formed from territory formerly belonging to that empire. The frontiers between German Austria and Italy, and probably the Adriatic settlement, will also figure in the Austrian treaty. Austrian Delegates Chosen VIENNA, Tuesday, May G (By The Associated Press).?The German-Aus? trian peace delegation expects to lea*ve here for St. Germain Sunday. It in? cludes Dr. Franz Klein, Professor j Heinrich Lammasch, Professor von Laun, Under Secretary Fluckc and \ Deputies Stegliger and Rudolph Lodg man. Herr Flucke will represent the Tyrol, and Deputy Lodgman the Ger? m?n Bohemians. What the Austrian delegation will accomplish is not clear here at present, because of the economic chaos in the former empire. The Austrians probably will sign any peace offered, but only ! for the relatively small part of the | former empire which they represent. \ One of the many questions to be ad- | justed is that of the financial re-1 sponsibility of the new republics' formed from the old empire for the ? debts of the war. "The solution of the racial problem," ' Herr Lodgman said to-day, "is to give I all the old provinces with conflicting! nationalities new frontiers. Later they ? will be obliged to unite voluntarily,! because their economic interests will j demand it." Who the Delegates Arc Dr. Franz Klein, the chairman of the German-Austrian peace delegation, was Minister of Justice in the Austrian Cabi? net from 190(5 to 1909. He is sixty-five ye*rs old and was craduatcd from the University of Vienna, in 1S93 a code of civil law prepared by Dr. Klein was put into operation in Austria and earned the author a high place in legal circles in Austria and Germany. Professor Lammasch was Premier of Austria when the armistice, was signed and previously had been a member of the law faculty of the University of Vienna. Professor Rudolph von Laun also was connected with the law school of the University of Vienna, as was Dr. Klein. Rudolph uodgman has sat in the Austrian Lower House as a rep? resentative of the German-Bohemians for many years.

As the German Foreign Minister pro- i ceeded with increasing decision, the dispatch says that it was interesting to j note the demeanor of the assembly, j ?The Germans seemed to stiffen their1 i bodies and, with folded arms, they sat j ' stern and silent by Brockdorff-Rant- j I zau's side.

On conclud- \ I ing his speech, Count von Brockdorff- ? ?Rantzau replaced his spectacles in their | lease, spread his hands upon the table | and waited. It was clear, the dispatch j says, that his attitude created a deep j impression upon the delegates. Pre- ! mier Clemenceau immediately rose, and I in a couple of sharp sentences brought j the proceedings to a close. During the meeting Marshall Foch sat, apparently not heeding the pro? ceedings. Nursing his chin in his hand, he never looked toward the Ger? man delegates, his gaze apparently travelling through the great windows to the beautiful country beyond. Germans Still Arrogant After the conference, William M. Hughes, Premier of Australia, said, ac? cording to a Reuter dispatch: "The attitude of Count, von Brockdorff Rantzau was an intolerable insult to the conference, for while Premier Clemenceau spoke standing, the Ger? man spokesman did not rise while making his address. In spite of their intolerable arrogance, this has been a day of humiliation for the Germans, which, we could see had entered into their souls." William F. Massey, Premier of New Zealand, said: "The Germans were more impudent and aggressive than anything I ever met." After the conference, the dispatch states, the fact that the members of the council of four did not appear made the crowd anxious, but it, tran? spired they were holding a meeting and shortly after 4:30 o'clock President Wilson departed, looking serious but smiling. He saluted the crowd as he went to his automobile. A little later the appearance of M. Clemenceau was a signal for the first great wave of cheering of the clay. Premier Orlando also received an ova? tion, but Premier Lloyd George, the latest to leave, is said to have been given a more generous reception from the throng.

' There is a sharp divergence of opinion ! regarding the acceptance of mandatai? res by the United States in the Near East.

Stories Conflict on Who Got Italy Back in Paris X?u> York Tribune Special Cable Service (Copyright. 101P. New Yurk Tribune Inc.) PARIS, May 8. -There is a curious conflict in semi-official statements is? sued' from the American, British, French and Italian headquarters re? garding who took ? the initiative in bringing the Italian delegation back to Paris. The British and French have given ou*-- through authoritative repre? sentatives that they invited the Ital? ians to return. On the other hand, it has been stated and reiterated for the last three days at the Hotel Crillon that President Wilson has made no move toward con? ciliation with the Italians and that he has no'knowledge of any formal or in? formal information invitation from Clemenceau or Lloyd George to the Italians to rejoin the Allies, although it is known that the three councillors took up the matter in conference pri? vately last week. That the Italian returned just in tiic nick of time is taken by the American? as a victory for President Wilson, it being pointed out that it was always expected, and that Italy could not af ford to remain away, thereby freeing I-'ranee and Great Britain from the ob? ligations of the Treaty of London, anc leaving Italy in a disadvantageous eco? nomic, financial and political position Americans close to President Wil? son even go so far as emphatically tc state that the French and British dele? gates went ahead with the treaty ir the hope that the Italians would nol return and that Premiers Clemenceai and Lloyd George would havp beer pleased if Italy were not n signatory tc the peace with Germany, thereby leav? ing France and Great Britain free tc make other arrangements more in ac cord with what they believe would suit American opinion. Though the above view fe taken sceptically, except ii American quarters, it is interesting tc note that the treaty was drawn uj without including a reference to Italy The head of the Italian press bu reau, in curious contradiction of th< British statement, insists that it wai not. upon any invitation but on theii own initiative that the Italian dele gates reurned to Paris.

Treaty Wins ; Faint Praise In Paris Pressj - Best That Could Be Ob-i tained Under Present Conditions, Says'Figaro* ; ? "Viclorie"' a Supporter j Others Are Against It; "Echo de Paris" Opposes Terms; "Temps" Thanks U. S. for Support in War PARIS, May 8.?The peace treaty does not arouse much enthusiasm in the French press, although there is no discontent with it. The newspaper commentators generally condemn it with faint praise. M. Capus, in the "Figaro," says "Evidently the treaty only repre? sents the greatest possible approxima | tion of a finished and definite article. ! It is a human thing, not a dream and ; an abstraction. It assures energy to the victorious peoples, principally the | French. If France gives way at the : knees, the treaty will bo but a vain ' pact between grotesque shadows." "Victoire" Almost Satisfied M. Serve, in "Victoire," says he is almost satisfied with the treaty and I adds: "it is just the peace we dreamed of, without violence, annexations and con? quests, but containing nearly all the restitutions, reparations and guaran? tees we could reasonably expect." "Pertinax," in the "Echo de Paris," is dissatisfied with the treaty and says: "What astonishes one at the first glance is the flagrant disproportion between the plans proposed to us and ? the means which we are given to carry them out." After analyzing the chief clauses of I the peace treaty, the "Temps" to-day makes the following comment: "The experience of the war is still fresh. What we have learned from it is that France, the British Empire and the United States have, thanks to their invincible soldiers, crushed Germany and caused the Ilohenzollcrn Empire to ! collapse in Berlin, although the Ger- ! | mans still hold territorial pledges and , strategic positions in iro-nt of Paris. "Never Gave Up Hope of Victory" "Premier Clemenceau never gave up j hoping that victory would be ours, and ! he was clever enough to discern among the othdr difficulties that would arise ? from victory the new conditions needed for French security, and he has man- j aged to realize them. "Foreign Minister Pich?n assisted I the Premier with the most unswerving devotion and Andr? Tardieu has con- ! tributed to the work of peace-making with clear-sightedness, powerful will j and capacity for the task. France will be ?grateful to them for their good ? services." "Must Wori.

The "Echo de Paris," which has been a consistent critic of the peace con fereitce, ends its article in review of i the treaty as follows: "Let us make the best of what we j have; we must not undervalue it.

London Press Objects To Indemnity Terms | Repayment Clause Criticised, but Pact as a Whole Meets IT il h Approval of Papers LONDON, May 8.?The peace terms, : while receiving considerable approval from almost the entire London press, dc not escape sharp criticism on ccrtair points. The objections centre mainlj on the question of financial compen ? sation from Germany. Some newspapers are dissatisfied be ! cause they consider the terms toi severe. Others think they are not seven enough. "The Morning Post" finds i difficult to say whether the treaty i good or bad, because of the "complexit; and intricacy of the terms," but is em phatic in declaring tlie value of th treaty depends upon the power to en force it, "as Germany certainly will no accept it except under duress." "Th Post" thinks that the indemnity cond; tions are unsatisfactory and do not. fulf the election promises of the British go\ ernment. "Better Than Expected" "On the whole," it adds, "the ti'eat is better than might have been antic pated. It has in it the principles of good peace, if these principles are pi into practice." "The Daily Mail" fears Great Bri ain will find the terms far short ? the pledges made by Premier Lloj George. It adds: "If the summary actually represen the text, the provisions are good on tl military and naval side, but dange ously full of loopholes on the financi side." The treaty is described by '"?'. Daily Telegraph" as being stern ai stringent throughout, although wit out a trace of the brutal exercise mere victorious force. "It is rigidly a peace of justice," adds. '.'The Daily Chronicle" thinks ti? the conference missed an opportun; as regards Poland, and fears that t Polish settlement may in the futt prove the weak point of the ent treaty. It also believes that the tref will be judged least favorably on 1 financial side in both England and G many. The treaty embodies the most sevi sentence ever passed upon a great : tion, "The Daily News" says, and c tinues: "Germany is handcuffed and in in from top to toe. She appealed to fo and must take the consequences." The heaviest part of the senter j "The News" adds, is contained in th? economic and financial terms.
