SATURDAY: 2 o'clock When Peace will. be Signed. OMINOUS GERMAN NEWS. I Paris, Tuesday (received Wednesday).- The ceremony of signing the Peace Treaty will take place on Saturday at 2.0 p.m. This date, however, depends on the time of the arrival of the German delegation, Um composition of which is not yet known.—Exchange. i A COUP D'ETAT? I t Startling Report From Berlin. COPENHAGEN, Wednesday. The latest reports from Berlin state that the reactionary elements are mak- ing preparations for a coup d'etat. Leaders of the voluntary Government troops are asking the soldiers if they will support them in taking action against the signing of the disgraceful peace." If a unio-n is formed between the various commands, there is no hqpe ot of the Government being able td sup- press the movement, as most of the troops would join the Conservatives.— Exchange. STATE OF SDÉGE. Trouble in Hamburg. HAMBURG. Wednesday.

Ci^menteftu "IfuU it has intercepted in Sileeia the following Ger- man official telegraiii. ( Posen, Saturday.—The Government will sign. Nevertheless, Horsing for Sil- esia and Wig for East and West Prussia will proclaim war in the east. The Gov- ernment is opposed to this officially, but unofficially will lend every possible sup- port. Horsing is Prussian High Commissioner for Silesia, and Wig the Prussian High Commissioner for East and West Prussia. The supreme Polish command declares "tiiat provocation by the Germans and the I outrages they are perpetrating against the l'olish people, wil], in all probability pro- duce the troubles that Germany is pre- paring to disavow officially while promis- ing to encourage unofficially by every pos- sible means. CYNI CISM AND TRICKERY. I The Polish communication conciucies:- To prepare us for the results of these manoeuvres the Germans tell us from Ver- sailles that in spito of all their efforts at conciliation, civil war appears inevitable. The truth is that the Germans are pre- paring to violate on the very first day of signing, the conditions of the Peace Treaty relating to Prussian Poland." The foregoing message us yet another in- disputable proof of their cynicism and trickery. FOCH INFORMED. I Paris, ednes<lay.—The "Echo de Paris" writes:—Owing to the delay I' in the arrival of the names of the I German Plenipotentiaries who are to sign the Peace terms, Marshal Focii and other ¡ Allied commanders on the Rhine have been informed of this fresh development of the German mind, and their troops are on the watch. The same paper points out that at the ceremony of signing the Peace Treaty the heart of the German delegation will not be permitted to make any speech or to enter any protest. The programme will be strictly earned out as drawn up. I SEALING THE TREATY. I [ Paris, Wednesday.—In order to gain I time the seals or the Peace delegates, con- trary to general practice, will be fixed to the Peace Treaty in advance. The Conference delegates have, conse- I quently, been asked to send their seals to I I the Secretary 01 the Conference. That of M. Cleinenceau represents not a tiger but an owl, whose eyes pierce the II j night.—Joint Message. 1 CLEMENCEAU'S PLANS. I I PARIS, Wednesday. I Interrogated in the Lobby of the j Chamber regarding the rumour that he 'I intends to retire from public life im- mediately after the declaration of Peace, M. Clemenceau refused to confirm or to contradict the statement.—Exchange. I THE EX-KAISER.

I The peace terms provide that he shall be given up for trial before* a special Allied court, but the German Officers' I Association has telegraphed to the Dutch Government, in whose care he is, not to hand him over. The association says that it represents millions of Germans. j Hun officers declare that they will go j to Holland to defend their fallen War I Lord from the Allies.

The decision to erect a first group of 156 follows a, suggestion of Mr. Harding, a councillor who is also a builder, and the necessity of pushing on has influenced this step, notwithstanding gome disadvan- tages that might be involved in it were another contract running concurrently. The sending in of names by builders who will tender will obviate printing more copies of the bulky list of quantities than will be needed.

I AN EX-DETECTIVE. Watch Committee and His Superannuation. J At Swansea Watch Committee on Tues- day, the chairman referred to the fact that the minute passed at the last meeting of the Committee with reference to an ex detective bad been referred back by tho Council. The minute was a refusal to repay to Clifford the money he had contributed to the superannuation fund. The Chief Constable said that the man'9 statement to him was that he was leaving to better himself. Councillor Ball said that any man com- ing before his employer would naturallj j desire to la:e on the best of terms, but it did not alter the contention that the man had been unjustly dealt with. The Chief Constable said his sympathies were with the ex-detective. He had nothing against the man, and he hoped he would get on.

TROPICAL CENTIPEDE. I Swansea Naturalist's Interesting I Discovery. A living specimen of a tropical centipede I belonging to the genus of Scclopendra, J and discovered in a Swansea stores, has! been handed to Mr. H. R. Wakefield, who I is one of the keenest naturalists in Swan- sea, and who is certainly an authority on the subject. Mr. Wakefield says that the centipede, which measures six inches from the tips of the feejers to the ends of the caudal appendages, was probably brought over in a fruit crate from abroad. The Scolopendra include the largest of the centipedes, and their bite is extremely painful and gives rise to great swellings and inflammation. The harmless centipede of our allot- ments is. of course, a tiny bro-ther of the I Scolopendra. I I

SHIP ON FIRE. ] Destructive Outbreak at 1 Swansea. At about 10 o'clock on Wednesday morn- ing fire broke out on a large trader, the s.s. Eleanor, owned by Messrs. Harris Bros. and Co., lying in the S-nuth Dock pill, Swansea, undergoing repairs. Employes of Messrs. Harris's dry dock. who had been engaged on the ship for two or three weeks, were working in the engine room, when flames burst out, the cause of -which has yet to be ascertained. They got away safely from the ship, leaving three acetylene cylinders, and the flames soon extended fiercely to the ravits. The fire brigade arrived with motor engine and escape, and whiV this was being gut round the South Dock, com- I mneed work from a hydrant at the end of Cambrian-place. Thick smoke emerged at times, probably when oil was reached, and slight explosions were caused by the fierce heat. Good supplies from two ho?es, however,, soon made an impression, and the out- break was before long well under, but con- siderable damage was obvious. OUTBREAK OVERCOME. The brigade by strenuous efforts, not unattended by difficulties, managed to; confine the outbreak to t.he engine and i-lic) upper deck, and by 11 a.m. had subdued it. Ten luim't?s later flet- the play of water, ami only the est?ge of a w-c,<)ulder r(-inainr-d. The heat below was intense, and this is prohaHy responsible for a bulge near the water-line about midships on the star- board side. The vessel has now a con- siderable quantity of water a board.

Evtn Rowlands in a. case in which Joshua Leonard (40), at the Swansea Police Court on Tuesday, was summoned by his wife, Annie Leonard, for persistent cruelty.

He said that if the case wa>s adjourned he would get his cousin, a solicitor in Cardiff, to defend I h;m. He undertook to pay the costs of the witnesses who were present in court, I and to maintain his wife during the per- iod of the adjournment, providing she agrees to go to the doctor under my super- vision," whereupon Mr. Rowlands retorted rw» above. Leonard was al?o summoned by Frank Lloyd, tbr. tenant of 134, Western-Street. he had a.partmonCs, for malicious damage to a sideboprd, a number of or- naments, two large Chinese vases, two ebony ornaments, a sofa and an over- mantel, to the extent of < £ 15 on June 13, and he in turn summoned Lloyd and his wife for assault.
