Washington. — Determination of
President Wilson, Indicated In press
advices from Paris, that no American
troops Bhft.ll continue on German Boil
for a longer period after the Bigning
of the peace treaty than may be neces
sary to embark them for home, is
borne out by present plans of the war
department which contemplate the
return of the entire American expedi
tionary forces by September. Because
of this General March, chief of staff,
is making every effort to speed up the
demobilization in this country.
An official announcement Issued as
to the accumulation of surplus cloth
ing for the tro<$s stated that the
estimates were based on "troop with
drawal to be completed in September.”
The statement also said that "if an
army of occupation is maintained af
ter September, a portion of this sur
plus will be needed.”
This computation was taken to re
flect exactly the present Information
of the department, as to future troop
movements. The September date re
presents estimates by embarkation of
ficials as to the maximum possible
speed In withdrawing the entire force
in Europe, including the troops hold
ing the Coblenz bridgehead sector on
the Rhino, If anything, officers antici
pate that the movement will be ac
celerated rather than retarded. Tho
schedule has been exceedod recently
and In increasing measure from week
to week.
1 With an Indicated monthly move
ment of 460,000 men, the best pre
dictions of General March and his
adies bid fair, It was said, to be more
than realized.
THE BIG FOUR HAS
INVITED ITALY TO
RETURN TO COUNCIL
It Is Believed Italy Will Accept, Be-
i cause Of The Nature Of
The Invitation
Paris.—President Wilson, Premier
Clemenceau and Premier Lloyd-George
(composing the council of three) sent
a communication to the Italian gov
ernment inviting it to resume its
place at the peace conference.
The council’s invitation is of such
a nature that it is believed Italy will
accept it and that the relations tempo
rarily broken by the recent departure
from Paris of Premier Orlando and
Foreign Minister Sonnino will be re
stored by the presence of Italian del
egatee at the conference before the
treaty is delivered to the German del
egates.
Tho council of three considered
tho Italian situation in its delibera
tions during the past two days and
finally determined upon an initia
tive of the friendliest nature. The
terms of the communication to the
Italian government have not been dis
closed, hut it is believed they seek
to remove the personal element of
the controversy and to pave the way
for a territorial adjustment when the
relations are resumed.
Maj. Fiorello R. La Guardia, a mem
ber of the United States house of rep
resentatives from New York, who is
an Italian by birth, after seeing Colo
nel House, said he belioved the en
tire situation could be settled within
forty-eight hours. He added he was
urging that pride should not stand
in the way of Italy accepting the first
overture made from Paris.
Heavy Weight Drops On Worshipers
Trenton, N. J.—The falling of a ven
tilating window and sash, weighing
three or four hundred pounds, frern
the roof of St. Mary’s Roman Catholic
cathedral, into the crowded audito
rium, a distance of 76 feet, at a wom
en’s mission, killed one woman, in
jured more than a score of others
and started a near-panic among the
worshipers. An usher was attempting
to open the window when it fell.
Lioness Kills Keeper and Escapes
Woodbury, N. J.—Panic gripped
Woodbury for an hour when a lioness
on exhibit in a circus sideshow killed
her keeper before a small crowd of
spectators, escaped from her cage and
bounded into a small clump of woods
which adjoins the town. A posse of
men and boys armed with guns, pikes
and stones, pursued the animal into
the woods and finally killed her with
ft fusillade of shots.
Washington.—Discovery in New
York of sixteen bombs, each put to
gether by experts, resulted in a gen
eral warning to government employ
ees to be on watch for what author
ities here believe to be an anarchist
plot to spread terror throughout the^
country.
While steps were taken immedi
ately to deal with the situation al
ready developed, postoffice depart
ment officials frankly admitted that
telling exactly how many bombs
might lufve been deposited in the
mails. The sixteen picked up in New
York were regarded as a catch find,
having been held for lack of postage.
Coming on the heels of the damage
caused by an infernal machine mail
ed to former Senator Hardwick, of
Georgia, and in the same sort of pack
age, with the same department store
label led to prompt confiscation by
the government and quick search for
similar weapons of destruction mov
ing through the mails.
Because of the character of the men
to whom the packages were address
ed, the one thought of the authorities
centered in the motive. In a general
way the attempt on the lives of cabinet
members, a justice of the,, supreme
court of the United States a governor,
a mayor and others, was linked up with
recent agitation and discussion of the
question of after-the-war immigration.
But the authorities could not altogeth
er agree on this as the reason behind
the wholesale attempts at destruction
would satisfy Italian ambitions.
Word reached investigators here
that Gimbel Brothers, New* York de
partment store owners whose mailing
tags were on each package, including
that sent to former Senator Hardwick,
had declared the tag a forgery. No
effort was made to disguise the fact
that this information was disquieting
for it meant, officials said, in the event
of a wholesale mailing of bombs that
•many would reach their destinations
hearing the mark of other firms, which
would make the work of preventing
delivery all the more difficult.
The description of the bombs hears
a most marked and startling resemb
lance to the new type of German mine
which was laid during the war along
the Jersey and Long Island coasts.
One of these mines, swept from its
moorings by a mine-sweeper, drifted
ashore at Moriches hay and we disas
sembled it. The description of the in
fernal machines found in the mails,
although much smaller, of course, tal
lies in every respect with this mine.
GERMANS HOPING
FOR WILSON PEACE
Solidity Shown Of National Banks
Washington.—Comptroller of the
Currency Williams, in a statement,
has called attention to the solidarity
of the national banking system, as il
lustrated by the fact that in the last
four months only one small national
bank, with $26,000 capital, failed. In
the last sixteen months only two na
tional bank failures were recorde'dTAt
the same time the number of national
hanks is growing and their earnings
are increasing, said Mr. Williams. "A
knowledge of these facts must nec
essarily give fresh courage.”
Bandits Take $12,000 From Messenger
Toledo, Ohio.—Frank Holewinski, 35,
a messenger for the Dime Savings
Bank, was held up and robbed of a
satchel containing $12,000 by two un
masked bandits, who escaped.
Banning Expects To Be Ready June 30
Columbus.—Major General Farns
worth, in command of Fort Benning

which is earlier than anticipated. At
that time General Farnsworth and
his staff and some two thousand of
ficers and men will he stationed there.

FRESH BREAD AT ALL TIMES.
Berlin.—Strong currents of tvolnlon
inside the cabinet permit of the asser
tion that the ministry of chancellor
Scheldemann is fervently hoping to
obtain a-peace settlement at Versailles
sufficiently tolerable to win the na
tional assembly’s ratification and thus
obviate the danger of further internal
ruptures, which it is believed would
be bound to result from a plebiscite.
The government’s pronounciamen-
tos in the past months have persis
tently underscored the nation’s need
for food and peace. The food situa
tion is slowly being ameliorated and
the government’s chief remaining sor
row is its preliminary settlement with
former foes.
Schcidemann’s party colleagues and
the Democratic elements in the pres
ent administration seem quite consci
ous that the peace to be offered them
will hardly be tempered with mercy,
yet they are pinning their faith to
President Wilson’s influence with the
entente leaders, to the extent of hop
ing for terms which will not compel
the German delegates to head their
train for Berlin immediately after the
delivery of the peace treaty.
There are no illusions obtaining in
any quarters—political, financial or in
dustrial—but that the bill will be a
long and heavy one. Speculation in
Berlin concerned itself with the ques
tion whether the entente will permit
differences on various items to be
checked off and discussed.
