GREAT BRiTAiN'S
TROUBLES

About the most perplexing position
Of all the powers is that of Great
Britain. The family ties between
royalty In England and Germany are
very close. The Kaiser is the son
of the late Queen Victoria's eldest
daughter and child, and in truth the
Kaiser by descent is closer the throne
than King George himself was on the
day of his coronation. Then the
Car is the cousin of King George and
when together they look as though
they might be twas.
II Great Britain goes to the help OF
the Gear, what will happen when the
armies Of the Car begin to thunder
at the gates of Constantinople, for
England has held Russia back for a
century and 1t was e;n English states

fruits of her victory in the treaty OF
Berlin. Then England has her
hordes and her boundaries to look

more difficult position than she
has been since just prior to Water

ACTOR MAKES STAR PLAY
Pleads Guilty to Swindling a
Chauffeur on Xmas Eve.

The remarkable feat of having swim
died a chauffeur was the charge to
which John Slocum, an actor who said
he lived at the Hotel Normandie.
pleaded guilty yesterday in the West
Side Court. Magistrate Deuel. held
Slocum in 500 bail.
The police had been looking for the
actor since Christmas Eve, when, they
say, Slocum told the manager Of an
automobile school in West 43d street
that he was the son Of a millionaire
and wanted chauffeur and would pay
500 a month. Alfred Hague accepted
the job.
AS he and Slocum drove to the Hotel
Astor, Hague says, the young man
entertained him with a fowery descrip-
ton Of their itinerary. In the lobby Of
the hotel, Hague says, Slocum ex-
planned that his father was very
"fnicky" and that Hague would have
to buy his own livery. which would
cost $50. Hague had $40, which he
handed over, and then took seat TO
wait. An hour later he told the police.
Slocum was arrested on Tuesday night
at Broadway and AID street.

Continuing, he says:
you have changed this body from a
