It was about a Herman officer who had been captured by the Americans lie was an educated man, and took a great Interest In the army, and the number he saw. "I can understand how the French soldier gets his cross of the Iglon of Honor, and how the Oermans get the iron cross, and how the Bnglljh army gets' the Victoria cross, but I don't understand hoy you Ameri cans get crosses." Anollo's Sane It. Mrs. Daniels told how the marines hail taken an old song "Sweet An ticline. " and had chanted the words to "il. Mother of Mine." When she hud finished her wonderful talk, the Apollo club quickly responded to the suggestion and sang the song. ItabbJ .1. H.

In ad vance of the meeting of the supreme war council, soon to be held at Ver sailles, offjelals here decline to dls cuss the aprosrhlng peace confer ence or to Indlcate. any views "the government may have as to the time or place of Its assembly. Ameri ca's suggest Icitm on these subjects probably will be presented to tho council Itself by ("olonol E. M. House, the government's special representative In Kurope. Much of the real work of the peace conference It Is believed here, already has been done by tho su preme war council. , As a prelim inary to 'the meeting of the confer ence, however, It will he necessary for the allied and American govern ments to decide to what extent and hv what title the provisional gov ernments which have selxeil the relns'of power In Herlln and Vienna represent the peoples of their coun tries. This Is a delicate subject and officials today confessed that they had only foggy Ideas as to the ac tual Koverniiicnt.il situations In these capitals. The stale department has been re ceiving communications through neutral ngencies from the de facto governments, but for the most part has so cautiously phrased its replies as to avoid any such recognition as might afterwards prove embarrass ing The development ,,f the separatist movement in Austria and Hermany, ti-'uliing In the uprising of so-called Independent republics on the basis of former Herman und Austrian pro vinces, promises to present much difficulty in Ihe further progress of peace negotiations.
