Lieutenant Fulcher, describing the sinking of the Tlconderoga to the correspondent ef the Dally Telegraph, said the Deutschland's commander left an American sailor afloat on a raft after the Tlconderoga sunk with the calm remark: "God vkHI sve him." "The first sots from the submarine," Lieutenant Fulcher said, "bad.y wounded the captain, killed the gun crew and set our ship on fire. The decks were quickly littered with dead.

We managed to get the fire extinguished and to lower boats, but in the excitement and confusion most of the poor fellows aboard were drowned." Leutenant Fulcher took a pillowslip and waved It In place of a white flag. The submarine came alongside and he was taken, together with another American; officer, aboard the vtssel.

First units of the American expeditionary forces to return from overseas are expected to arrive in New York about the end of the present week. General March, chief of staff, announced that 882 officers and 6,614 men of the air service" and other detachments training in England are homeward bound on the Minnehaha, Lapland and Orca, British liners. The first two ships left Liverpool last Friday and the Orca sailed on Saturday. Ships Are Problem Before General March's announcement Secretary Baker discussed with newspaper correspondents the return of American troops from France. Their homeward movements, ho said, is dependent almost entirely upon the limitation of transporation facilities both at sea and in France.

Besides employing in this work the ARGENTINE ASKED TO BE NEUTRAL IF WAR Paris, Nov. 25. The United States government's diplomatic success in obtaining from the allied governments acceptance of President Wilson's points, with only one reservation and addition. Is ber coming daily more apparent, as the preliminaries for the approaching peace congress are being outlined largely on the hasis of the president's points. Col.

K. M. House, the special representative of the United States government, when he arrived here, found little disposition among American and European friends to accept as a totality the framework of peace as expressed by President Wilson. Home European statesmen considered that the points had worked as a good solvent upon Germany; that they had served their great purpose in their effect upon 'Herman unity, but that they should not be observed too closely when it came to formulating the practical details of the settlement. Allied statesmen plainly put forward the view that, as the American traditional policy had been one of the detachment from European affairs.

It was natural for the American government when the war broke out In Europe to consider it a Quarrel among European nations and to declare its neutrality. It was pointed out that for two vears (BY A. P. LB1KR0 WtBt) New York, Nov. 25.

FIMT Return to Peru and Bolivia of Lost Provinces Held By Chile, The Alsace-Lorraine Problem Of South America, Demanded American Arms Appreciated AHU-d statesmen have fully appreciated the effect of American arms in winning the decision. Nevertheless, it was contended by some, this had been a controversy among European nations and the winning group. It was suggested, supposed that America, having accomplished her aims, would return her detachment and allow the countries Intimately concerned to arrange a settlement, according to the European viewpoint of the situation.

These statesmen made it plain that they would receive every friendly counsel the United States would offer, the more so because they knew that America wanted nothing in a material way for herself, but was Interested only -in realizing her ideals. The losses the other belligerents have suffered in comparison with those of the United States also have been cited as a reason for the allies hav- COALBHQRTABE SCANDAL AID San Francsco Police Chief Has Two Detectives on Guard Over I German liners seized in this country, Dutch vessels taken over and all other Journalist Following Physical Protest Against Mooney Probe San Francisco.

25. It is officially announced that Peru has withdrawn from Chile as a result of the renewal of anti-Peruvian rioting in iquique and Antofagasta. Santiago, Chile, Nov. 25. The Chile-'an government has decided to withdraw its consuls in Peru in order to avoid untoward incidents which might take place in case of outbreaks.

Huptior Aires, Nov. 25. The Peruvian legation here today received the following dispatch from the Peruvian minister ot. foreign affairs: "After the extraordinary outrages at Iquique, Saturday, during which the property of several Peruvians was sacked, Chilean crowds on Sunday at-'Tcked the Peruvian consulate at Iquique, and the consul, Senor L.
