(By A. P.) The Rumanian delegation has sent a note to the peace conference de claring that its Intention was to sign the Austrian treaty with rcser rations. The supreme council to day took the Rumanian note under consideration. It appears unlikely Hbnt such a signature will be per' nitted.

Sent. 8. The national as sembly. while votlne bv 07 to 23 Snt urday, to sign the peace treaty, pro tested against "the violation of Aus tria's right of free disposal of herself." The German Nationalists voted against signature of the treaty, while some members of the South Tyrolese party abstained from voting. The vote was .taken after adoption without dis sent of the government's resolution of I protest, presented by the Christian So cialist, Bauser, declaring the territorial clauses of the treaty violate grossly the national claim to self-determination l and the basis on which the armistice was concluded. "TVa ratal Ann) TnnrA nnr vnla u, against a peace founded on brute force. ab one man we uecnne me mviaing-up of our peoples into free and unfroe, as Is done by'thls peace ; we further de clare that the 4,000,000 Germans forced under foreign rule will for all time insist on self-determination as the only pos sible basis on which the modern state may be founded." ' (; xne resolution also declares that ulti-imate-union with Germany is nn absolute necessity, and expresses the hope that Jwhen the hatred of war dies down this 1 union will beConsummatcd. It ends by placing responsibility for steeping Ku- rope.in revolution ana contusion on tlie shoulders of the Entente and looks to the leazue of nations to ronnir thi r wrong done. Paris, Sept. 8. The Austrian" dele- ration at St. Germain has informed the French peace mission that it has re ceived notice that Austria has accented the tieace treatv. and that Dr. fvnrl Renner, head of the Austrian delega- iiuu, una uveu uuurgcit wua signing me document. Doctor Renner is now on his way to Paris. His signature will be affixed to the treaty at 10 o'clock Wednesday morning. Hurried arrangements are helm made for signature of the treaty at St. Germain. The ceremony will bo much less formal than that at Versailles, as It is believed necessary to rush signa ture of the document because of the unstable condition of the Vienna Gov ernment. -. Jlerr Meyer, provisional head of the German delegation jit Versailles, .has transmitted to the Peace Conference two more notes, one relating to the delivery to the Allies of German coast ing vessels and,,tbe other discussing the question of potash supplies, according to the Petit Parisien. Premier Clemenceau presided at the supremo council meeting today. The delegates discussed the German reply to--the allied demand for suppression of Article LXI of the German consti tution providing for Aubtrlan represen tation in the German parliament. The discussion of this subject was not com pleted today. The council will' take ' it up again tomorrow. The German reply declaring that the disputed article would remain in the constitution "without legal force" is considered' highly evasive, and the con ference may insist upon actual elimi nation of the section from the consti tution. While the council probably will , spend several days on the answer to the German note before com pleting it, it is considered certain that the answer will be extremely firm in tone, taking the position that Germany is violating the treaty bpfore it be comes effective, thereby rendering it Impossible 'for the Allies to ratify it.

He charged the gov eminent ministers with responsibility for the agitation in favor of direct ac tion,' declaring that their conduct, es pecially that of Premier Lloyd George, "had destroyed confidence and pro voked suspicion that the premier, to tide over a temnorary difficulty, was ready to make promises without the intention of performing them." Mr. Bunning declared it was urgent necessary that labor Increase Its pro ductivitv. but he denied thai "war weariness" was reflected in the situ ation, even in a lower Industrial out put. Ho exhorted the trade unionists not to Impair public confidence in them by calling unofficial strikes and repu dlatlng ngreemeuts.

Con dor," Bhoutcd at him by admiring thousands on his frequent public ap pearances. IBs distaste for the phrase was attributable to mod esty, very much as General Sherman was said to object to the air of "Marching Through Georgia, which was the olmos't Invariable saluta tion for that warrior. At the bombardment of Alexandria in 1882 Beresford, on his little gun boat, Condor, silenced the Egyptian batteries which had opened a galling fire on the British fleet, temporarily demoralized by the grounding of the battleship Tcmeralre. So successful was Brrcaford's oudaclous feat that Admiral Seymour signaled "Well done, Condor," n phrase that clung to the gallant officer throughout his life.

From sub- lieutenant In 1800 he Voso to captain's rank in losJ. when, as commander ot the gunboat Condor, he participated in the bombardment of Alexandria and succeeded in silencing one of the most formidable of the Egyptian batteries in circumstances demanding the utmost skill and bravery. In 1884 he served with the Nile col umn of the Gordon relief expedition, commanding the Safkh, action of which, handicapped by a temporarily repaired boiler, saved the entire column. At the battles of Abu Klea, Abu Kru and Metcmmeh he was in command of the naval brigade. He became a rear admiral in 1807 and took command of the Mediterranean fleet in 1005 and of the channel fleet in 1007, when' he reached the rank of admiral. Owing to friction with the naval board, he lowered his flag in 1009. The trouli'e that caused his retirement came to a head through his bold criticism of the policy of Sir John (now Lord) Fisher, first sea lord of the Admiralty, and of his colleague. Sir Percy Scott. He found vent for his strong views on British naal 'affairs in his book "The Betrayal," published in 1012in which he condemned the shipbuilding policy of Great Britain from in02 to 1000. At the request of the British Govern -'ment the first edition was withdrawn and its criticisms modified. Thp pub lication of this book led to the forma tion of the British naval war staff.
