ON KAIS h
Surgeons Waiting Until Fever,
iSh Condition Of Emperor
Subsidies to Operate
on Throat.

London, Dec. 14.-Telegraphing from
Berne, Switzerland, q correspondent OF
the Contra News says:
"a telegram received here from Mu-
mich states hat it has been decided to
operate on Emperor Williams throat,
but the operation is being deferred
owing to the feverish condition of the
emperor
Previous reports AVE been conflict
ing. One report from Amsterdam yes
terday stated that the Kaiser soon
would be able to depart for the front,
but this was offset by a report from
Berne, which stated that it would be
necessary for him to undergo an OPP
Grafton which would delay his departure
for the front several weeks.
Reports more or less alarming Of the
illness of Emperor William have been
in circulation for several days past.
His majesty returned to Berlin some
days ago from the front, and it was
then variously reported that he was
suffering from influenza, catarrh of the
throat, and breakdown.

DRESDEN IN
PORT, DISPATCH SAYS
Punta Arenas Is Haven Of
Safety For German Cruiser
1t Is Uninjured.

Valparaiso. Chile, Dec. 15.-Dispatch-
es received here from Punta Arenas,
declare that the German cruiser Ores
den has come into that port uninjured.
This location of the German cruiser
Dresden at Punta Arenas on the strait
of Magellan, clears up all doubt as to
German warships that encountered the
British squadron December 8 off the
Falkland islands. The Gneisenau,
Sc~harnhorst, Leipzig and Nurnberg
were sunk; the Dresden escaped and
has been pursued by British warships.
Her presence at Punta Arenas means
that she was either e~ndeavering to
reach the Pacific again or that she
contemplates informing for the remain
der of the war. Punta Arenas is q
Chilean port. The Strait of Magellan
IS narrow. British warships doubtless
are at it's Atlantic entrance and Japa-
nese cruisers are said to be either
watching or not far from the approach
on the Pacific side.

ADVANCE OF ALLIES
MAY HURT CIVILIANS
Germans May Exact Heavy Re
prisals If Townspeople Show
Hostility.

London, Dec. 15.-Correspondents in
northern France, who anticipate a gen.
eral advance by the allies shortly,
point out that the situation is fraught
with the greatest danger to the civilian
population of the towns occupied by
the Germans. The sympathies of the
civilians, the correspondents think, are
likely to lead them to attempt to as
sist the allies. thereby compelling the
Germans to take severe measures for
their self protection.
Such a situation. in fact, arouse
around Roulers last week, according to
the correspondent of the Daily Express,
who says:
when the allies attacked Roulers,
the Germans learned that civilians
were aiding the allies by messages and
signals, whereupon they warned the in
habitants that the own would be de-
stroyed and every inhabitant killed I'M
less neutrality was maintained.

openly hostile. began shooting at the

IT look for q readjustment of com
mercial regulations at the close of the
war which will put us inevitably IN a
position to do an increasing share Oh
the worlds trade if we really want 1t:
To help get that trade is the chlet
function OF the commercial attaches.
There is bound to be a sentimental
boycott for many years on the part OF
the ~belligerent nations against the
goods of their enemies. Germans will
not. buy English, French or Russian
goods, if they can help it n it is
safe to say that German goods will not
become popular with the allies or thai
Belgium will regard with favor the
goods marked made in Germany" nov
why should not American goods take
the place of commodities from coun'
tries that are tabooed?
Everybody knows this war is costing
the participating nations billions of dol
lars. That money must be raised ul
timately by taxation and of course tn
manufacturers will come in for tn

means anything, it increased cos

production is apt to mean an increas

a week ago was discovered last night
by some small boys buried in the Gin
ders near the railroad track close to
the intersection OF Court and Calvin
streets. The children had uncovered
it and reported it TO Patrolman Ba-
ker who brought it TO the police sta

The robbers had twelve sticks with
them and the fact that there were
that number missing from the Lox
found led to the belief that they had
cached the box. This afternoon Clar-

dynamite in cokevilie and brought II
to Pendleton in a suit case. One
night while here, he related. Man
ming took out what he though he
would need for the job, and, while
Stoner and Meadors were at a picture
show, took the box with the other Ss
sticks and cached it. 1t was this
cache that the small boys dug up.
