Can not Acquiesce in Italian Demand. Paris, April 23.-43resident Wilson's emphatic declaration that he will not yield on the Adi-iatic question has cre ated the most profound sensation in the peace conference. I-I has thrown town the gauntlet to the supports of secret treaties in a manner which al most took away the breath of the dele gates who have been urging compro mises on points covered by many se (ret documents an(d at variance with (lhe presidenit's 1-1 polints. President Wilson's sweeping declar ation, iwhile aiied directly at the Adriatic problems, also reaches the Klau Chiau controversy, in which .Ja pan relies on secret agreements ma1.1de witli Great Britain, France and Italy in 1917 to support her in her claim to the concessions held by Germany in Shentiung. 'lhe peace delegates generally re gard President Wilson's statement as a challenge which once for all will disl)ose of the q(uestion whether secret docuients of {which. many inat.ions pirtieipating in the war were ignor ant are to figure in the peace follow ing an armistice in which all the al lies' pledges gave no regard to secret treat ivs. The Italian situation overshadowed all other questions throughout the day in Parim and was the sole subject of conversation in oflicial and unoflicial circles.

Signor Or lando remained at Italian headqua ters, but messengers carried him imainy notes. Poposaij and counterproposaIs weie imade betrween the members of tle British, Prench and Italian dele gations, and numerous stories of con promises were circulated. These were suddenly discredited by the issuance of (President Wilson's statement, showing that the piresident was not a party to the plroposed concessions, which were chiefly based on the sup position that Fiume could be given to Italy. The idea, which had been prevalent in Paris that the Adriatic situation was a game of chess in which the most skillful diplomats would win, re gardless of the armistice conditions, Pwas suddenly banished by President Wilson's action. Since Monday it had been generally known that he had prepared a state ment which was presented on that day to the entire American delegation, and that the delegation had approved it. liut there 'was no suspicion that his position was so unalterably against seciet diplomacy. Declarations by the membiers of the American delegation that the presi dent would not yield on the matter of Plume were regarded by most 1uro pean diplomalists and especially by lie Italians, as pait of a political game, until today, and even now many old school diiplomatists seem tiable to compiehend what has hap pened. In issuing 'his official statement on the Adriatic question, President Wil son let it be known that he desired once again to call attention to the fact that there were certain well de fined principles which have been ac cepted by the peoples of the world as the basis for a lasting peace. . The United States delegation simply re called tlis in order that ltieire should be no deviation from these .principles. * C(OLD POINT NEWS. *e Cold Polit, April 28.-The farmers here are about thirough planting and woild be glad to see a good rain to bring crops ilp. .\i'. and Mis. 1arry .1.
