was expected the aeroplane broiiabl

rect charge of the military forces
here, were taking all needed precau

reception if they attempt to recap

advised Americans hero lo leave tho

He offered no explanation, but the
general belief was that he expected
another battle.

His suggestion came, too, us n sur
prise, the hotels nml onfe having
been thronged last night, the street
ears running as uunl and women

resumption of the city's norma! lifo
was just what the American nuthori

hud not bad urgent reasons.
The American officers have com
mandeered nil nntomobiles in tlio
