sent from here to aid in suppreSslne
the disorder.
Five white men arc under arrest or
charges Of rioting ard arson. a ne

The trouble is th- outgrowth of the
killing last week of John Lee. a white
farmer, in pistol fight with three
negro cattle thieves.
The scene of the rioting in years
past was one Of the most lawless sec.

with CHASTITY shreds of clothing and

Three Austrian Ministers
Formally Tender Their
designations Today
RUPTURE OVER PEACE
Demand That Members of German
Reichstag Be Allowed to Discuss
Such Measures.

Amsterdam. Dec. l. The Emper,
or of Austria today accepted the reSlg-
nation of his minister Of finance,
the interior and commerce, accord
ing to Vienna advices..
The three designations naturally
are associated in diplomatic COM
n,ent, with reports that Austrian lead
ers have been discussing separate
peace for their country.
The general assumption is that they
favored such a step and were over
: ruled.
The finance minister is thought like
ly to have surrendered his portfolio
because unable to raise money to con-
tinuc the struggle.
The interior minister is presumed
to have retired through inability to
organize food distributor satisfac-
torily and perhaps. because he could
not cope with outbreaks Of popular
discomfort.
The commerce minister, it is sug-
gestcd, undoubtedly was called into
consultation with the heads Of both
other departments in connection with
the ;country's industries. From the
fact}that he resigned, it is taken for
granted that he agreed with them.
These are surmises for which
Nienna dispatches offer no explana-
Son. Itsis agreed that the rest.sl1&tiots
hint at an increasingly serious situa-
lion in Austria-Hnary.
Copenhagen, Dec. l.-Fresh de-
mands that reichstag members be per-
mitted to discuss peace terms are con-
tained in copies Of the Berliner Vor-
waerts.
The paper, Germany's leading So
cialist organ, maintains that only
in this way can the public be kept in
formed so as TO support the govern
rnent when negotiations are begun.
Berlin. Dec. IA split threatens
Socialist ranks in the, reichstag.
One group is insistent on a govern
ment statement Of the peace terms
Germany will accept. The other be-
lieves this would be confession OF
weakness. There is also a difference
of opinion over government food re-
gulation. During the expected recess
of the reichstag, leaders hope to COM
pose their differences.
Government leaders are confident
Greece will remain neutral, but are
not certain how, benevolent" this
neutrality will be toward the allies.
Regardless Of Greek or Russian de-
vclopments. it is declared the Ger
man-Anstrian-B Bulgarian-Turkish com
municStion line is unbreakable.

Bassermann Would Make New War
On Germany Impossible

Berlin. Dec. Ernest BasScrmann
a leading National Liberal member
Of the Reichstag discussing the war
N the National Zcitung under title
The Will Of the People" says
Il sluggard peace which does not
bring Us security East and West is
equivalent to Il lost war The repeti-
tion of war ot destruction by Eu.
:opean powers against Germany must
be made impossible and will he made
impossible if we make ourselves as
powerful that none will dare attack
Us. Decades will pass before the hate
of peoples will abate and only fear OF
the strong will guarantee peace.
1T is not lust of conquest nor vani-
ty. nor desire TO rule the world that
drives us forward. hut the spirit OF
self preservation Of aheath people
firmly resolved to achieve security
East and West which will prevent ;
repetition Of this horrible war. which
has spared no single family"
