''.London, Dec. 4. The Express claims
to be able to deny the report from Ber
lin yesterday that a new ultimatum
had been sent to the German govern.
ment because all the locomotives to be
handed over under the terms of the
armistice cannot be delivered at once.
The paper says It is true that Germany
Is not keeping up to the stipulated
schedule, and Marshal Foch has given
warning that Germany will be respon
sible for further delays, but he has not
fixed the time limit for carrying out
the clause relative to the railroad
equipment.
