The premiers and foreign ministers met in mutual distrust. They part in great personal cordiality and with much more confidence in the future. France also gains in this, for as Paul Hymans, the Belgian foreign minister, remarked yesterday: "French hopes may be reduced, but her realities will be increased," by the fixing of a global sum for Ger- many to pay. M. Jaspar, the Belgian Minister of Reconstruction, says that the Ger- mans will start earnestly to work, because heretofore there has been no inducement for them to pay any part of an unknown and vaguely enor- mous lability, . The word "revision" is wholly | eschewed by the prime ministers in talking of the Treaty of Versailles; the word "interpretation" is coming into use. The Italian premier, Sig- nor Nitti, is mildly content over the council leaving the Adriatic question to a continuance of direct negotia- tions with the Jugo-Slavs. The Belgians are satisfied, how- ever, because they, believe the west- ern block of powers, Great Britain, France and Belgium, remains as solid as ever against Germany. The Bel- glans are for immediate fixing of the amount of Germany's debts to the Allies, Greek Premier Elated, M. Venizelos, the Greek premier, _ 1s elated over the extension of Greek territories by the addition of Thrace and Smyrna, ancient possessions of the Greek race, The attitude of the council was conciliatory toward Russia in in- structing the executive, or so-called permanent committee of the Su- préme Economic Council to nego- tiate with the Soviet representative Krassin for ' commercial arrange-' ments," th The Zionists are happy over Pales-' tine as they wish a national home.' The Turks alone may feel that this has been a dark week for them; yet Cilicia, which it had been France would take, has been left to Tur- key. But the French statesmen de- cided upon taking no further com- mitmepts in the near east, except Syria, and thus save troops, money and worry. The Turks also . still have a chance to receive Erzerum, through the arbitration of President Wilson in the matter of the Armen- ian boundaries, The British prime minister, David Lloyd-Géorge, considers this one of the most successful meetings the Surpeme Council has yet held--one full of promise for the future of Burope apd the restoration of econ- omic peration. he Ao The Aarious delegations left San Ag this morning. TRYING OUT NEW POLICY. Policy of Conciliation to Be Given a Fair Trial London, April 27.--Lloyd-George's heart is set on hig new policy of con- eiliation for Ireland and I learn from ah authoritative source that he will allow nothing to prevemt its. being given a fair trial. He realizes the centre of gravity in the Irish adminis- tration must be converted from mili- ' tary to civil branches. Dublin Castle is to be shorn of iis traditional ter- rors for the Irish people and reduced to merely social importance. The chief political authority is to be vest- ed exclusively in the civil secretary for Ireland, Sir Hamar Greenwood and not shared with the military lord lieutenant as lately. .

Antwerp, April 27.--The Falcons, of Winnipeg, last night defeated the Swedish Olympic hockey team by a score of 12 to 1. Winnipeg thereforg, winning the Olympic championship. The victory of the Canadian team was fully expected, it being regarded largely as a question of the size- the score the Icelanders would run up against their sturdy but less ex- perienced opponents. The real test of the series came Sunday night, when the Falcons, af- ter a fast game defeated by a score of 2 to 0, the team representing the United States. That was looked upon generally, as' the deciding factor in the championship test. The Swedish team, which won handily from Bel- gium, in the preliminary canter, was composed of star skaters who lacked however, the long and arduous train- ing in the game that would fit them to cope with a first class team. The Swedes played desperately from first to last, working heroically to. score, and despite the fact that they were hopelessly outclassed, their stubborn defensive work kept the tal- ly away below what the balance of play indicated. It is a noteworthy fact, that the result of every contest in the Olym- pic hockey series to date, except last night's, has been a "whitewash" for the losing team. The Canadians, in carrying off the world's champion- ship have figured in three games. RESPONSIBILITY PLACED SQUARELY ON HOLLAND The Ex~Kaiser Is In Serious Danger While Near-the German Border.

It was difficult, how- ever, to give a satisfactory arm, and every country was having difficulty in securing a mechanical hand that would satisfy. Col. Starr said every effort was mare to fit patients who had come here from England and dis- carded the artificial limbs they were allowed to choose in England and adopted the Canadian limb which they found satisfactory. There were very few amputation cases, said Cal. Starr, who could not wear an artifi- cial limb, JUGO-SLAVIA CONFLICTS Between Strikers and Gendarmes Ree sult in Killing.

Women of the City of Kingston, do not forget the mass meeting of men and women in the City Hall to-night at 8.15. Be there and bring you friends. Get after the High Cost o Living. Put "pep" into your meeting and into your campaign. Do not stop at the price of potatoes; get after everything you can, and become a terror to the profiteer. The women in other large cities of both Canada and the United States are organizing for the same purpose. Show them that the women of the Limestone City are not sleeping. Do not say that there will be enough without you. If all the women do that there will be no meeting. All must co-operate against this evil, find out the cause, devise a means of stopping it, and then apply the cure at once. 'There must be no weak, half-hearted attempts at a campaign. This must not be a nine days' wonder, but a thorough, systematic war .{ against the prevailing high prices. Last Thursday in Peterborough potatoes sold on the market for from $3.50 to $3.74 a bag. In Kingston they were selling on Saturday at $8 a bag. When 'a difference of $2.5¢ on a bag of potatoes exists in two cit- ies slightly more than one hundred miles "apart. there is something wrong. The farmers claim that they are not to blame. Perhaps they are not, but it is np to the women to find out just who is to blame and then to "camp on the trail" of the guilty parties until conditions im- prove.~ The eyes of multitudes will be on the women of Kingston as a re- sult of this meeting, and the womea of the city should let them see that things are happening and more are & about to happen. a next | Here is another picture fro m the scene of the recent trouble in the Ruhr region of Gers many, where the British, Fren ch, and Belgians helped to maintain order when the Germans attempted an uprising.

Prime Minister Lloyd George, in a statement to the French' press last night, said complete agreement had been reached on questions regarding Germany. ; It was wrong to believe, the Bri- tish leader said, that Great Britain ever excluded the idea of military force to execute the Versailles treaty. At the same time, however, he said, | Germany should not be prevented | from restoring internal order. Lloyd George never thought of | modifying the treaty by attrition, he said, adding that Franco-British un- | ity was essential for the world. | | | Rejects German Request. { Paris, April 27.--A joint Fyench,' Belgian statement British, Italian, | rejects Germany's request that she be allowed to retain an army of 200,000 | instead of 100,000 provided by the treaty of Versailles.
