 Ten Billion Marks.

BERLIN, Dec 22.-Wild scenes of disorder were created in the Reich stag yesterday by the Socialist mem- bers of the house when the measure authorizing the issuance of bonds to the extent of ten billion marks to en- able the government to continue the war came to vote.

 NOT FOR PORTLAND
Chief of Police Has Issued Orders Regulating New Years Fes-
 tivities in Rose City.

PORTLAND, Dec. 22.-The chief of police has notified the proprietors of cafes that order must be main tained during the New Years eve eel ebration and that dancing on the ta- bles of the public dining rooms will not be prohibited.
 The order comes from the chief of police as result of complaints lodged with the mayor last January that young girls who were under the influence of liquor were encouraged to engage in dances such as are not indulged in by polite society. The po- lice will see that the order is enforc- ed as church workers and ministers have been insistent that the cafes be regulated in order that private and self-respecting families may take part in the festivities.
 A warning has also been given that plain clothes men will be engaged to- mingle with the crowds on the streets to prevent "wedgihg." During the festivities last year gangs of boys, by forming flying wedges to force their way through the crowds, ruined thou sands of dollars worth of women's clothing and caused many street fights.

 John Redmond, the Irish leader, followed Premier Asquith and declar- ed that the Irish party would resist conscription if the government at tempted to enforce it in Ireland.
