The German pro vincial press Is strongly urging the speedy signing of the treaty. Berlin advices to the American dele gation summarizing the situation show the sentiment throughout Germany to be in favor of accepting the peace terms. The advices cover Leipzig, Dresden, Chemnitz and other repre sentative regions. ' Geographically analyzed, the advices indicate that all the southern German tates are favorable to the acceptance of the treaty, while the Prussian egions are maintaining some opposi tion. The advices say that In many regions sentiment is favorable to Immediate igning and that delay would be sui cidal. It Is believed the majority so cialists and the centrists in the national assembly will vote In th affirmative, but the centrists may attach conditions and ask that "humiliating" clauses and terms, like the trial of th former em peror, blame for the war and loss of colonies, be modified. Conference circles are cheerful ever th outlook. Information received by the American delegation apparently Is confirmed by advices to the other delegations. Heppner Paper Geto New Press.
