TOUR OF PRINCE IN INE STATIS Social Climbers Will Get: Little Chance. Weelt-ena at White House the Limit, Washington despatch: It Is official/Y announced by cable from the British Foreign Office that the Prince of Wales will travel in the British war- ship Renown from a. Canadian Atlan- tic seaport to New York, and thence proceed to Washington, where he will spend a week -end at the White House as the guest of President Wilson. This is to be the extent of his' visit to the United States. So endeth the trials of the DWG- matic Service, which for weeks has been the victim of a tangle of red tape and wireepulling front Newport, Lenox and other fashionable resorts. The officials feel as greatly relieved as would the Senate it the Peace Treaty were out of the way. The projected visit of the Prince caused a wild flare-up in social circles. Precedents were hunted up, and days and nights devoted to social man- oeuvring. Certain • Newport and Lenox leaders cabled Queen Mary, and every resource known to arebitious and wealthy social leaders wait exhausted. Everybody wanted the Prince. • It was recalled that his grandfather, • Xing Edward VII., when Prince of Wales, accepted hospitalities here sixty yew% ago, and his hosts and hostesses be- came historical figures socially as the result. This gave increased zest to the struggle. , It has resulted in spectacular social strife. Mrs. Ten Millions at New- port, who happens to. have a social standing in England, sought to out - Manoeuvre Mrs. Twenty Millions at Lenox, who also bas been received by royalty abroad, and has given bouieti- fully to British War charities. But the British Foreign. Office, instead or being moved by the insistent pleadings and rpanipulations, has determined to restrict the Prince'e Vieit to a week- end invitatibn from President Wilson —that is all.

TO NEGOTIATE WITH CHINA FOR RETURN OF SHANTUNG Tokio Special :Cable— ('By the Associated Press)—Kenkichl Yoshiz- a,wa, former Committer of the Japan- ese Legation at Pekin, left here to -day for the Shantung Peninsula, to con- duct a special investigation of condi- tions there preparatory to negottetions with China for the return of Its sov- ereignty over the territory controlled by Japan under the, German peace terms. The negotiatious, officials in- dicated, would be Initiated after the ratification of the peace treaty by the Privy Council, which officials said they expected would take place before Sept. 15t1*. IMuch interest is being displayed by officials here in the inquiries made in the United States Senate regarding the negotiations at tlae Peace Confer - once which resulted in the Shantung agreement. . Japanese officials said Japan is ready to make all enterprises in the Shantung, including reliroads and mihes, joint undertaking with the Chinese. Japan, it•is understood, is having difficulty in inducing China to discuss the Shantung question. Failure of the Chinese delegation at Paris, it is said, to sign the peace treaty, is proving to be a source of embarrassment. "TOBY, M. P.," GIVES HIS SYMPATHY TO CANADIANS 111.0 OVERSEAS Not Wholly or Primarily Responsible for the B.:e- el:int Troubles.. • ,„. 'London Cable—((i. A. P.)— Sir denry Lucy, known to untold thou - ands of English-speaking folk as Toby, M. P.," lu the columns or 'Punch,' has just contributed to the •"'Westminster Gazette" a sYmPathetle sketch of the trial of tWo Canadian soldiers at the quarter sessions at Hythe, where he sits as one of the 'great unpaid." The proceedings, lee says, created a painful feeling, not free from resentment, at the convic- tion that, as not infrequently happens thlee Balaclava days, "someone has blundered." • After describing how the jury, in .l.he face of fairly clear evidence, found 'a verdict 'of "not guilty" in both cases, 'one of which was the breaking of a plate glass window, "Toby, P„" adds: "The action was lacking in logic, and had other, even more serious, 'drawbacks. 'But it is emblematic of a state of feeling that has found ex- tpression ona large scale .at Hyl ahd Ascot. These poor fellows, awaiting the final stage of demobilieation, 'Canadians and Australians, heartsick for Immo, find themselves, for rea- sons uneccountable to them, detained in camps with nothing to do for the livelong. date When night comes,and the mettle houses' open, Satan, at his proverbial genie, finds work for idle tends to do. There will, I fancy, be general agreement with the obvious conviction of the Kentish jury that our brave soldiers are not wholly or primarily responsible for the lamen- table 'consequences." "WE TAKE OFF OUR HATS TO THE MEN OF THE MAPLE LEAF" New York Herald Pays Tri- bute to Canada and Its ° Glorious Army, New York Despatch—The New York Herald prints the following, under the caption of "Our Wining Duty to Can- ada," Resideuts of New York, and visitors bare, who have not visited the Can- adian efemorial Exhibition and "The Anderson Galleries," ought to make se, point of eeeing it before it closes on the last day of the month.

So here again we owe a debt of gratitude to our great neighbor. But mot of all should we support the Canadian memorial because it ie an expression of the democratic eetf- coneciousnees of ' a nation which. though daughter itt her Mother's house. is mistress of her own, which, though with a difference in ceremonial forte. stands for the same sort of NOrth American freetiom that we enjoy.

ROMANS CHECK THE HUNGARIANS . `,Counter -Offensive is Suc- cuss Against Attackers Communists Would Destroy Pro -Ally Nation.. Paris Cable — A Bucharest de- spatch dated Thursday says the Hun- garians last Sunday started an offen- sive with eight or nine divisions, overwhelmed the Roumanian ad- vance guards and crossed the Theiss river at several points, but suffered a severe check in the northern sector of the fighting front. • The despatch adds that Roumanian reserves on Tuesday counter -attacked and recaptured Hodmezo-Vasarheht (14 miles northeast of Szegedin), but that sharp fightieg continued when the despatch was filed. It is the intention of the Hungar- ians, the despatch says, to destroy Roumania, which is an obstacle to their plan to link up with the Rus- sian Bolshevik', expecting meanwhile that those Bulgarians and Austrians who are dissatisfied with the peace conference decision will join the ranks of the Bolsbevists. The first port of call is the most plc tureeque spot along all these coasts. WAIFS HONORS THE CANADIANS Oolonel-in,Ohlef a P. of W Leinster Reg% Recruited in Canada for In- dian Mutiny, London Cable The Primo of Wales ban been 'appointed colonel -in - clad ef the Prince of Wales Leineter Regime% (Royal Canadians). During the Indian Mutiny, the first regiment to be recrUlted in Canada tor service in eke British army was leased, and became the' 190th Prince of Wales Royal °anathema, All the or- iginal reenthere were Canadiane, but recruiting for the regiment ceased. in Canada in 1861, and when it returned there afx years, later, meet of the or- iginal remitting menmere ocured their discharge. When the Britisli army was organized on the Cardwell Territorial principle, the 100th became the Leineter Regiment, but it has al- ways continued to bear the Maple Leaf on the collar, and still possesees the service of plate preeented by the Canattlem Government to the 10011* nearly eixty years back. , The late King Edward, an Prince of Wales, reviewed this regiment when It landed in England sixty years ago. Curiouoly enough, this review took plate in Shorneliffe, where the great majority of Canadian soldiere, in the earlier stages of the war, also found it temporary station. This was the late King Edwarda first ineblic engage- ment ae Prince of Wales. TREATY STATUS NOT AFFECTED * If Ratification. by U. S. With Reservations. Supreme Council Might Ap- prove the Changes. Parfet July 27. --There is much sPec- ulation in conference circles as to the what the exact status of the German Treaty would be were the ;United States 'Senate to ratify it with reserva- tions or amendments. This discus- sion has been intensified by the pith- licalion in Paris of Mr. Taft's state- ment indicating that he regards a modification of the treety as likely, and suggesting changes advisable. Many of the delegates take the posi- tion that it would he posible for the Supreme Council to approve the modi- fications made by the 'Senate. Others believe that approval of the changes would be necessary on the part of all the signatory powers. President Wilson 'before leaving Paris, was known to have , believed that any change by the Senate would make imperative a renewal of the tie- -gotiations, with all the stguatery pow- ers. President Wilson's view that changes must be passed upon by indi- vidual countries is apparently not shared by many of the delegates who are of the opinion that IR Senate changes be agreed upon while' the conference is in session they could be aeted upon speedily by the Supreme Council, or possibly by a plenary 'ses- sion, thus avoiding the necessity of taking up negotiations through the various capitals, * * SIMPLIFIED READING.
