Clemenceau, still outside any formal reconciliationand made actual restoration to regular relations and intercourse with the "allied nations dependent, not upon the signing of the preliminasies of * peace on Saturday, but upon rati fication by the Assembly. To M. sen, replied, after returning to the Hotel, that had they known they sould be treated on a different status after signing, than the allied epresentalives, as shown by their "separate exit before the general "body of the Conference, they never would have signed, Under the cir~ 'enmstances the general tone' of sentiment in the historic sitting was "ome rathér 'of relief at the uncontro - vertable end of hostilities than of "Gomplete and unalloyed satisfaction, : , CANADA'S PART : 'Paris, June 29.--Various peace celebrations were held to-day at the Basiliac ofthe Sacred Heart, includ~ $ng Pontifical Mass, celebrated by Archbishop Bruchesi,of Montreal, at which Cardinal Amette presided, t a subsequent private luncheon attended by the clergy who partici- pated in the Mass, Archbishop Bruchesi alluded to the bonds upit- ing France and" Canada, and point. sd out that Canada had suppli jad hall a million fighting men, of whom 75,000 liad bgp killed.
