BRITISH EMBASSY'S STATEMENT.

WASHINGTON, April 1.

Indeed, any title expressive of enjoyment would have fitted the happy melange of song, dance and wit, presented by a Company of thirty Londen artists, each of whom appeared to have a keen sense of the artístic or bumorous, according to the nature of the particular role, vocal, terpsichorean, or comical. The efforts of the players, which were rewarded by applause of marked duration and cordiality, were not a little aided by the admirable scenic and orchestral effects. Notable also were the attractive costumes worn the ladies, whose concerted vocal with becoming grace and charm by

The plot was rescued from the nebulons state usually typical of such lightsome productions by a distinct the result of a secret wedding and! series of amusing, complications, all the desperate efforts of the young lovers "to conceal the deed from firascible relatives.

The statement, while admitting that Crown forces under incredible provocation may sometimes have committed unjustifiable acts of violence, declares that it is absolutely false to say that these were encouraged or condoned by the British Government After giving figures to show that Ireland is the most prosperous part of the United Kingdom and that Sinn Fein has long since established terrorism which has allenced) of ; a presentation across the the moderate opinion of the vast majority of Irishmen, the statement con- footlights.

FRANCE AND AMERICA

VIVIANI'S VISIT AROUSES SPECULATION.

WASHINGTON, April 1. There is much speculation with regard to the objects of M. Viviani's visit to the United State. M. Viviani, had a brief interview with President Harding and an hour's conference prith Mr. Hogbes. He also discussed with Senator Lodge various American officials and problems involved in France's collection of reparations from Germany. Well-informed circles emphatically declare that M. Viviani has not isited material alễ but only moral support from the United States in the grave international situation confrontin France? It is stated that M, Viviani denied that France intended to ask for a remission of her debt by America and asserted that France wredd discharge all her financial obligations. He declared that the recent epoption the French Parliament that America owed France money lent during the American revolutionary war in no way represented the French official viewpoint.
