Letters to Otis skinner.

Otis Skinner, who will come TO the
Oliver Thursday night, is pursuing
under difficulties a correspondence
with Henry Arthur Jones, the author
Of Cock o. the Walk" which he will
play here. The dramatist had plan
ned 10 be in this country to super
wise the production Of the comedy
but i'll health forced him to remain
at his home in Devonshire. England.
He has, however, endeavored by
succinct and sententious instructions
his ideas about the opposite way to
stage the play. Nearly every letter
Skinner has received has arrived
with the envelope slit across the
top and pasted together again with
Z sticker bearing the words Opened
by censor" A recent letter had been
written at some length and arrived
greatly deleted by the censOr's scis-
sors. It contained something about
the war and began "This war is max
ing" Half a page cut Jones
writes a tiny hand and. as had cover
ed the two sides Of the sheet. a great
deal of detail referring to Cock o.
the Walk will perhaps never be
known on this side of the Atlantic
During the final rehearsal Of the play
he sent Skinner a corrected manu-
script which never reached these
shores. II went down with the Hes
peran. Jones, by the way has two
sons and three near kinsmen now
at the front with the English army
In his last letter 20 Skinner he writes
that he is improving rapidly after
a severe attack of nervous prostra-
ton.

Peace Conference.

CHICAGO. Dec. g. Government
officials expect TO summon Samuel
Gompers. president of the American
Federation Of Labor, to help them
unravel pro-German neutrality plots
that were born in New York and car
ried out from Chicago.
Witnesses who are to testify this
week before a federal grand jury at
New York that is investigating the
Vaccinations of the labors national

fore the grand jury. And as a re-
suit Of its inquiry government prose-
cutors may seek the Indictment Of
Congressman Frank Buchanan Of
Chicago. and former Congressman
II. Robert Fowler of Harrisburg,
III. The government has uncon-
frmed evidence that Buchanan and
Fowler were paid $1,000 TO organize
the society.
Expect to Get Source.
From the testimony of labor lead
ers who helped in the organization,
the government expects TO trace TO
one fountain head of funds many Of
the various societies alleged TO have
been formed TO precipitate strikes,
bride union leaders, cause the de-
struction Of munition factories and
effect a national embargo on arms.

President Wilson's note to Germany has been editorially commented upon st1aroughout the United States with distinct praise and appreciation. Excerpts from editorials of some of the leading newspapers as indexing American sentiment, follows:
 New York Times.
 It is the great diplomatic achieve msnt of the note that it puts upon Germany the choice, not only of what her reply shall be, but of what is to follow. The presidents elo- quent appeal to her great traditions, to her sense of honor, and of justice, must triumph over any warlike incli- nation she may feel to pursue a course that can have but one ending.

 President wilson's words arc those of a patriot. We sannot believe that a nation which is bound by so many ties of friendship to this nation is so far possessed by war madness that she will fail to heed the message.

 New York Staats Zeitung. While the Staats zeitung makes no editorial comment on President. Will sons note today it has the following to say printed in English: Nor is a time to burden millions of the Amer ican people with unjust and unnec- sary anguish of mind. The German Americans must suffer in any con- flict between the United States and Germany pains of which their fellow citizens can never know anything. 1t is rather time for showing them the greatest degree of consideration. They have fought to uphold the flag in the past and they will do SC again, against any enemy whatsoever. They deserve the fruits of past loyalty, un- til they have forfeited the right to [ claim them. There has never been but one flag under which the Ger man-American has fought There never can be but one flag under which he will ever fight. And that flag is the Stars and Stripes"
 Philadelphia Inquirer.
 We have not always agreed with the president of the United States, but when it comes to a question of the nations honor the president must be upheld. The note is written delib- erately and coo1ly. There is not word spoken in haste.
 Washington CD. @ Post.
 The note is framed in moderate language and leaves abundant oppor- tunity for the German government to reply in a way that will restore good feeling between the two countries.

 Into the end of his note to Berlin President Wilson has put some teeth and not too many at that--into the end because the first of it is filled with those graceful but empty rnetor- lcal phrases which long ago exhausted the patience Of the Americans no less than they excited the derision of the Berlin militarists.
