POLISH BOUNDARY QUESTION SETTLED ftlLlKlli FAILS TO SAVE GAS VICTIM Premier Lloyd George returned from his trip to England, resumed his place in the Big Four. It developed that, contrary to the plan originally contemplated, there would be no German text of the Peace treaty. Naval Terms Revised. The terms to be incorporated in the Peace treaty concerning the Kiel canal and Heligoland have been revised in several important particulars. It was the original plan to destroy the fortifications of the canal, making It a strictly commercial waterway without defenses.

The changes that now have been made leave the present fortifications in existence, and provisions have also been inserted permitting of the continuance of the present coast defenses, all of wrhlch were to have been destroyed according to the original plan. The changes concerning Heligoland leave intact the present large basin constructed on an extensive scale for the use of submarines during the war. It was concluded that the use of submarines had now been so restricted that the basin no longer constituted a menace, and its continuance was decided upAi as providing a useful haven for the North sea fishing fleet in case of distress. The fortifications of Heligoland are to be dismantled, so that, the basin is virtually the only thing retained. The final disposition of the German fleet is one of the subjects still undecided, and even the highest naval authorities are not aware how the question stands since it passed into the hands of the Council of Four.

The disposition to be made of the battleships and battle cruisers is one of the chief things to be determined under the head of naval terms, and the decision will affect the large number of capital ships held under the terms of the armistice. George W. Rosenstiel, chairman of the Victory Liberty loan committee of Wanamassa reports that that place is the first in the country to reach its quota, $3,750, and go over the top. He made the announcement early this morning. Not- withstanding that Wana- massa has gone over the top it will keep on going, Mr.

Rosenstiel said, until the conclusion of the campaign. LIEUT. HENDERSON Wins Baseball Contest at Treves With Smashing Two-Bagger. Lieutenant George V. Henderson, stationed at Treves, Germany, with the American army of occupation, broke up a ball game in the last inning and won the victory for his battalion thru a slashing two-bagger, he says in a letter just received by his son, George V.

Henderson, jr. Because, he wrote his son, he knew John F. Seger and E. A. Harvey would doubt the story, Lieutenant Henderson submitted an affidavit from the lieutenant who was the umpire.

Lieut. Henderson declares, however, that he has retired on his reputation as a pinch hitter. Here's the story as he tells it to his son: "In the ninth Inning the First battalion was ahead, 3-2. The Second battalion had two on, one on second and one on third, and two down. The battalion commander and the other officers and men were yelling their heads off.

The coach, Lieutenant Let-tie, a league player covering second, asked mo to pinch hit. I very bravely removed my overcoat and coat, swung a couple of bats around a few times, you know, sort of Ty Cobb stuff, stepped up to the plate and No, you're wrong, I didn't strike out; I hit between center and right and broke up the game, 4-3. Incidentally I decided never more would I pinch hit. I will stand on my 'made in Germany' reputation. Can you imagine what they would have done to me if I had not walloped that ball? The identification below, I know, my old friends "Pop" Seger, E.

A. Harvey, will insist on asthe testimony of witnesses," Then follows, In his own handwriting, the affidavit of Lieutenant William J. Nagle, the umpire: K. is no name for it. I was certainly tickled when my room mate, your dad, cane thru with that bingle, a sizzling two-bagger that Just cleared my frosty cranium.

I was so delighted that I never even looked to see whether, he ran it out. When the sec-onl runner scored, I threw up my hat and joined in the jubiliation. It he hadn't written you about that game, I had fully determined to do so myself." "This O. K. should be sufficient," Lieutenant Hendersn then resumes, "as Lieutenant Nagle does not drink and is all right in the head despite the fact that a machine gun bullet went thru his helmet just as he was getting up to go forward, went thru just above, but behind the ear, in the shoulder and out back of the shoulder.

Some trip for one bullet. "I just met a young lad a short time ago and again Thursday evening, a clean cut little soldier who introduced himself. He is Frank Steo, nephew of Sam Alexander and brother-in-law of Pete Shebell. He used io shine shoes on the Seacoast Bank corner. A great army, this.

This kid is a typical easy going, 'sittin' on the world' Yank and sends his regards to his friends in Asbury Park." Lieutenant Henderson is assigned to Company 354th. Infantry, 89th Division. and expects to be home late next month or early in June. WARNS AGAINST SOLDIER PEDDLERS ON STREET Captain Fred M.

J. advStf-lH EM "Sunday: Fair and Warmer" Is the prediction of the weather man for Easter weather in Asbury Park and other resorts on the north Jersey coast. The weather prophet adds that there will be "moderate variable winds, becoming south." Despite rain earlier in the week ideal weather is expected.

Wall Shopper Asserts Need Is For Well Appointed Quarters. Writing to The Press from her home in Wall township, Mrs. James M. Ziegler makes a plea for women visitors to Asbury Park for a public comfort station. She believes the building should provide quarters where women might check parcels, write, meet friends by appointment in fact a shopping exenange.

iter letter follows: "To the commissioners of Asbury Park thru the courtesy of The Press: "I am addressing you in these columns so that my communication will reach others whose attention I wish to arrest. We women are invited by merchants' advs. to visit your town, but our personal requirements are overlooked. I allude to the absence of anv place of public comfort. What Asbury Park needs is a well equipped 1 room for rest a place where women can meet by appointment, write, check parcels, etc.

Let it be well furnished, attractive and tasteful, to insure careful treatment. -You will say that the new station, when built(?) will meet these requirements. But people are not going to the station except for trains. This building or room should be located in the center of the shopping district, and not put underground a tning to oe ashamed of. I take it for granted that I am only one of thousands that go to the metropolis of Monmoutn county to shop who feel the need of this necessity and my plea is for their benefit.

Who knows how much trade has been diverted from your town for lack of proper accommodations? "MRS. JAMES M. ZIEGLER, "Wall township."

"Would you give possession by July Most of them would they admitted it while waiting for Mr. Burns to appear, but they couldn't understand where any man could raise the money at this time with a Victory Loan and prohibition coming on. Tho former makes it hard to raise money for any undertaking, and the latter makes it particularly hard to raise cash for the purchase of a rural hotel which has been depending upon the bar receipts to pay expenses and provide a profit.

Two o'clock was the time set for the meeting and the McCartor gallery on the ball room floor was the place. Promptly on time three hotel men appeared in the gallery and strolled around rather aimlessly. During the course of the next 20 minutes six more tame in. One of them said he was from Gibbstown; another stated he was from fcomcrville, but none would give his name. Letters Cautioned Secrecy.

Hadn't the letters of invitation cautioned them to preserve absolute secrecy? "Did you ever meet Mr. they asked each other. "Wonder what the proposition is?" Nobody was able to respond. One hotel man walked up to Charles A. Carrigan, manager of the Robert Treat, and asked him if knew what the meeting was for.

He replied that he did not. And they waited, Some strolled down to the basement to the little room adjoining the grill; others walked around in the main lobby and admired the ceiling. Finally, they began to depart, ono by one, but Mr. Burns came not. The last man went and Mr.

Burns had not arrived. The letters sent out to the hotel men were on, stationery marked: "John B. Burns, importer and wholesale liquor dealer, 4 East Main street, Freehold, N. Mr. Burns used to be in that business in Freehold, but he is living in Newark at present at 120 Ridgewood avenue, and is employed by the Charles R.

(By the Associated Press) COLBENZ, April 18.

"As captain of the ferryboats which brought the American army to he said, "I wish to say that I have under my command 70,000 American boys who also are clamoring to return to their homes. I have told those sailor boys they would get home, but that, first, they must help get back to the, United States the boys who fought In France and Belgium." Mr. Daniels contracted today's assemblage with that of the Germans, who stood on the same ground in 1914 before the beginning of the war.

"Their chiefs," he said, "had visions of conquering the world, but America entered the war without desire for territorial gains." The secretary's reference to the soldiers' return home was answered with cheers, and shouts of "how soon?" were heard. When asked for the dates when the men Would be taken back to America, the secretary smiled, but did not answer. This morning, during a review "of the division, the Belgian Order of the Crown was conferred on Capt. Gaines Moseley, and the Order of Leopold on Capt. Robert Blake.

Both are officers in the Marine corps. Thirty-three Distinguished Service crosses and C5 French war crosses were presented officers and men of the division. On the reviewing stand with Secretary Daniels, were Mrs. Daniels, Major Gen. Joseph T.

Dickman, commander of the Third army; Major Gen. John A. Lejeune, commander of the Second division; Brigadier General John L. Hines, commander of the Third corps, and naval and army officers who are accompanying the secretary on his trip. Following the review, Secretary and Mrs.

Daniels were given a ride across the fields to the speaker's stand on a caterpillar tractor. Mr. Daniels and his party will be guests of Gen. Mangin, commander of the French Army Occupation, at Mayence tomorrow. VITRIOniilNG IN CA1R0J STREETS Death Penalty Proclaimed For Terrorism Further Disorders In City.

The order also provides that persons possessing corrosives without legitimate reason are liable to 15 years' imprisonment and that those who sell such substances are guilty of a criminal act.

REDS IN BATTLE NEARJREISI1 Government Gathering Army of 30,000 Before Risking Attack. BERLIN, April 19. Serious fighting between Bavarian Communists and government troops occurred Friday near Frelsing, resulting in fairly considerable losses for both sides, says a Munich dispatch to the Tageblatt today.

Italy's territorial claims, especially in the Adriatic, were presented- to the Council of Four today by Baron Sonnino, the Italian foreigir minister. The fact that Baron Sonnfno, and the Premier Orlando, presented the Italian1 case to the council, is regarded as significant because the foreign minister Is an extremist advocate of Italy's utmost claims. It was Baron Sonnino who signed the Treaty of London and now holds Premiers Lloyd George and Clemenceau to the pledges made in the treaty. When the council met it was with the intention of devoting its entire time today to consideration of the Italian claims and with the expectation that a settlement would be reached before night. The Italians maintain that their position regarding possession of Flume is unalterable.

The British and French premiers, it is understood, are inclined toward some sort of compromise on the question. It is said that President Wilson's attitude opposing Italian aspirations is unchanged. PARIS, April 19. (Havas.) The text of the preliminary peace treaty will be transmitted to the press next Friday or Saturday, the Petit Paris-ien says. The Echo de Paris declares that in case Germany refuses to sign the preliminary peace, a special train will immediately be put at the disposal of the enemy delegates for their return to Germany and the allies wjll take military and naval measures to enforce the treaty.

LONDON, April 19. In political circles here much significance is attached to the resolution adopted by the French senate demanding the insertion in the peace treaty of guarantees suggested by the allied high command. The resolution may, perhaps, be read in connection with the interview with Marshal Foch had by a correspondent of The Daily Mail, in which the allied generalissimo insisted on the necessity of regarding the Rhine as the real barrier against another German attack, because the Rhine could be held with a small force, whereas the political frontier west of the Rhine as proposed under the peace treaty, would, as the marshal explained, have to be held with large forces along its whole length. There are rumors that Marshal Foch insists strongJy on these guarantees. Coming of Germans.

PARIS, April 19. The German delegates to the peace congress are coming to France by way of Spa, to which point they will travel by their own conveyance, says the Petit Journal today. At Spa, however, a special train provided by the French authorities will await them and their journey thence will be made under military guard. At Versailles a military delegation will receive them and conduct them to their lodgings. The German representatives, the paper states, will be treated courteously but will be regarded as enemies as long as the peace treaty remains unsigned.

They, will not be allowed to go about as they please nor will newspaper men be permitted to interview them, on pain of being charged with communicating with the enemy. Polish Question Adjusted. PARIS, April 19. The Polish-German boundary question was finally disposed of by the Council of Four yesterday. No announcement was made of the decisions taken, but it is understood that Danzig will be Internationalized, while the Poles will have a corridor running from that city to their frontier to give them access to the sea.

Only routine work in connection with the coming of the German delegates was taken up at the afternoon session. Death Notice. FENN, WILLIAM JC Died April 17 at his residence, 703 Emory street. Funeral service at Presbyterian church Sunday, 3 p. m.

adv71t Italian Shoemaker Dies Suicide In His Little Highlands Shop. HIGHLANDS, April 19 No reason is known by members of the family for the suicide yesterday of Benedetto Mezzopane, 63 years old, a shoemaker, whose body was found In his gas filled shop on Bay street late in the afternoon by his son upon his return from New York, The father was happy and in good spirits when he left in the morning, the son said. The body was still warm when the son returned but artificial respiration tried by Dr. J. L.

Opfermann and the use of a pulmotor brought from Atlantic Highlands failed to revive the man. All the windows and doors of the shop, used as a shoe repairing place and fruit store, were found securely fastened. The Italian lay stretched out on a couch in a rear room, with a string of prayer beads about his left wrist. Gas was flowing from a gas cock turned full on. It is believed the man had been dead only a short time when the son returned home.

Mr. Mezzopane had been in this country for 27 years. He is survived by three children, Salvadore and Joseph, who live here, and Mrs. Petina Laurie of Ohio. IITNEY DRIVER HALED TO COURT Harry Harris of Belmar, a jitney operator plying between this city and Belmar, was summoned to appear in the city police court this morning by Motor Vehicle Inspector Samuel A.

Reeves, charged with a violation of the traffic laws by passing a standing trolley while passengers were said to be alighting. It was the second complaint against Harris, he being fined $10 on April 11 by Justice of the Peace John A. Borden in the city police court for an offense committed on April 2 in Bradley Beach. Superintendent George B. Cade and an inspector, motorman and conductor, besides several other witnesses, 'mostly women, were brought to court this morning by the complainant as witnesses.

Harris was 'represented by Counselor Joseph Silversteln and took exception to the complaint being argued here, declaring in his opinion the statute stated that such charges should be brought in the municipality in which the offense is committed and where a recorder is located. Judge Borden granted the counselor's objection and the charges against Harris were temporarily withdrawn by the inspector, who announced to the court that Harris would be summoned to Trenton next Thursday, where Commissioner William R. Dill may revoke his license. Since the latest complaint against Harris, it is reported that he has given up jitney driving and has gone to fishing. Following the dismissal of Harris from court, an attempt to try a disorderly conduct charge against him was also postponed until Le Roy Goble, conductor of the car which Harris is said to have passed, can make a written complaint charging Harris with threatening his life on several occasions.

Harris' counsel objected to this procedure and declared his client could not be summoned to court for one charge and tried for another without being given an opportunity to procure evidence in his own behalf. The complaint will be made today and a warrant issued, it was said. Tonight is Victor Night. Call at Tusting's and get a new record for Easter. Souvenirs will be given with every record purchase.

Gregory, former attorney general, who accompanied President Wilson to Franqe as an unofficial advisor on matters connected with the I'eace Conference, returned here today on the Von Steuben. Speaking of the conference and tho terms of the forthcoming treaty, Mr, Gregory said he returned entirely satisfied, and that in his opinion the agreements arrived at would be satisfactory to the majority of the people of the United States. "There were numerous difficulties of opinion confronting the delegates," he said, "but they were met and settled by the conferees as gentlemen. While no country, of course, obtained all it wanted, I believe the provisions will be generally accepted." Mr. Gregory says President Wilson's popularity abroad had not waned.
