Desire to Present Egypt's Claim for
Independence to Peace Confer
ence Start of Revolt.
PARIS, May 5. (Correspondence of
the Associated Presa.) A statement
concerning: the present disorders in
Egypt, explaining the situation from
the viewpoint of the agitators, has
been given to the Associated Press by
Mohamed Mohmoud Pasha, a member
of an Egyptian delegation of 20 which
is here to auk the peace conference to
recognize the independence of Egypt.
Mohamed Mohmoud Pasha was at one
time governor of the Suez canal and
later governor of the province of
Behera. He with three other leaders
of hist party were deported recently to
Malta, but were released after a month
and oarae on to Paris. His statement
follows:
"The political status of Kgypt under
went a great change, owjng to the war.
International relations Between Egypt
and other countries must be re
arranged, and the British protectorate
which was proclaimed at the beginning
of the war and which has never been
accepted by the Egyptian people, waa
a war measure and cannot stand after
the termination of the war.
British Prevented Departure.
"AH these questions whioh emanated
from the war can be settled , by the
peace conference only, and a proper
settlement necessitates the hearing of
Egypt's voice therein. For these rea
sons the Egyptian delegation was em
powered by means of mandates from
all classes of the Egyptian people to
come to Paris, plead the cause or tneir
country before the peace conference,
and Fequest therefrom the recognition
of the independence of Egypt.
"Bat the delegation was prevented by
the British authorities from leaving
for Europe, and the Egyptian ministry
which was in complete solidarity with
the people, resigned early in March
last. No Egyptian was found to form
a ministry, and for this bankruptcy of
British administration in Egypt, the
delegation was held responsible.
"The chairman, Saad Zagloul Pasha.
former minister of education and later
of justice, and now vice-president of
the Kgyptian legislative Assembly
Ismail Hidkey Pasha, former minister of
religious endowments; Hamed El Basil
Pasha, one of the leading Bedouin
chiefs and a member of the legislative
assembly, and myself were arrested on
March 6 and deported to Malta without
any charge or inquiry.
Violation of Liberty Charged.
"The Kgypt lan people almost to a
man demanded our immediate release
and the immediate departure of the
delegation for Europe. Their indigna
tion reached a very high pitch when
they saw in this violation of individual
liberty an attempt at depriving Egypt
from enjoying the liberal principles of
President Wilson, and they also saw
that all the enormous sacrifices whieh,
in the language of General Allenby.
were to a very large extent responsible
for the decisive victory over the Turk;
were in vain.
"Representative Egyptians from Al
exandria to Assuan lodged a stern pro
test against such treatment. Young
men and the students made peacefu
demonstrations, but the British troops
opened fire on them. Yet the demon
strations continued and the fire of ma
chine guns and rifles continued also. A
very large number were killed in Cairo
and the provincial cities.
"This revolution is a national move
ment against a foreign domination
which is abhorred by the entire Egyp
tian population. Mohammedans and the
Christians are in absolute accord. The
Egyptian movement is neither religious
nor anti-foreign, nor instigated by
Germany or Turkey. It is a deep-
rooted desire on the part of all the in
habitants of the valley of the Nile for
the attainment of the independence of
their country.
Countess de Paris Rude and
Virile "Lady."
Possible Queen of Prance !j molted
Enormous Cigars.
PARIS. May 8. "Jt once saw the
Countess da Tarls," writes a woman
In an evening paper, a day or so after
the recent death of the countess. "I
was a little prirl, but I have never for
Kotten it. It was at the station St.
Germain-des-Fosses.
" 'Look at that lady." my father said,
she miprht have been queen of France."
"I looked and saw a lady wearing a
widow's long veil and smoking an
enormous cigrar! On each side of her
was a beautiful younp girl, the Princess
Isabel and Princess Louise of France,
her daughters. The countess strode
along the platform, her long black veil
floating behind her crepe bonnet and
her cigar preceding her.
"I could not imagine that my father
was joking, because of the respectful
way the crowd of passengers made
way for her. but my Illusions of what a
queen might be suffered a permanent
shock."
This little story explains why even
the courteous and courtly Figaro In
chronicling the death of the countess
referred to her manners as "rude" and
"virile."

PAHS SEWERS ARE VISITED
AMERICAN ARMY ENGINEERS
SEE HISTORIC TtXXEIiS.
Far Below Great Closed Cimals
Rumble Trains In Subway, An
other of World's Marvels.
PARIS, May 15. The "spring open
ing" of a sewer system might not be
looked on everywhere as a social
event, Invitations to which would
eagerly be sought by distinguished
guests, but the formal opening of the
Paris sewers has been euch an affair.
Admission was by card only and im
portant American army officers were
eacer applicants for the cards.
The sewers of Paris, which are
famous in both history and literature,
have been closed since the beginning
of the world war. In the meantime,
thousands of Americans have applied in
vain for permission to inspect the
sewers some of them civil engineers
Interested in the structural problems
worked out in the system, some of
them students of literature who wished
to inspect the places in which "Jean
Valjean" had hid from injustice.
Since the war ended, sightseeing has
been one of the biggest jobs of the
welfare societies in Paris. The Y. M.
C. A. alone entertains 40,000 members
of the A. E. F. every week with sight
seeing trips in and near the city, and
has succeeded in having many places,
closed to the general public, opened
for the benefit of the A. K. F. The "Y"
now has succeeded in getting permis
sion to guide limited parties through
the sewers. None but engineers are
admitted, however.
The Paris sewers have a total length
of 1400 kilometres are traversed by
a tram line, telephone and telegraph
wire, pneumatic tubes by which spe
cial delivery letters are whiffed across
the city and enough canals to rival
Venice. There are no gondolas the
canals are not wide enough but there
are some flat boats, and joy riding in
a skiff would not be an impos
sibility. The sewers are too far underground
for one in them to be conscious of any
of the noises of the great city above,
but from beneath seemingly far be
neath come ominous rumblings. These
are from the subway system.: which is
another of the engineering marvels of
the world. Far beneath the sewers
and far beneath the Seine the sewage
by the way, is carried far from the city
and does not touch the Seine the sub
way trains rush to and fro, carrying
two million passengers a day. It all
Is perfectly safe, but when one hears
that ominous roar and thinks of the
greater tunnels under the huge system
of tunnels he is in. he gets a creepy
feeling. Notwithstanding the eager
ness of all the members of the party
who attended the - "opening' today,
there were no lagging footsteps when,
after an hour underground, the "Y"
man who guided the party and told the
story of the sewers as they went along,
announced that it was time to go back
to the open air.

Some of the Baldwin properties were
famous in California history and had
been held V him for many years. Best
known was his home, the Santa Anita
rancho, centering at Arcadia, a few
miles from here.
This comprised some 13,000 acres and
on it was the Arcadia track, known
throughout the country, as a center of
horse racing for many years.
Another noted property was the
Rancho Cienega O'Paso, consisting of
some 4000 acres adjacent to the city of
