With the yelp Of Joy contained in the

Whether Won Bethmann-Hollweg and

or not 1t remains a. fact that the chan

his pressing affairs of state to give his

THE allies are laughing in their

Let US help the quarrel on

chuckles," and what we can't do to

For Germany is seething with internal
politics like pot over fire. Every
member of the imperial council Is in bad
with every other member Of the imperial
council. il the allied press has received
ftsziuformation straight, and every last
member Of the council is in bad with the

He had to go his weary and troubled
way alone. 1t was all the harder for
him for he did not want to accept the
troublesome old Office of foreign min
lister when it was first offered to him.
Gottlieb is Won Jagow's other name.
It was only in 1913 that he was called
to the German foreign office. At the
time Of the call he was the German am
bassador at Rome.
1t was at the personal insistence of
Emperor William that he was called to
the post. Won Jagow himself did all he
could to dodge the call. He didn't want
1t by any manner Of means. 1t was with
openly acknowledged regret that he ac-
cepted the summons, regret that
amounted almost to insubordination.
He feared the post because 1t had been
the stumbling block of the careers Of
more promising German statesmen than
you can count on your fingers.
When he was appointed to the post,
Won Jagow was almost a freshman in the
diplomatic field. He has served a long
period of apprenticeship as attache to
German embassies in several European
capitals. but he had served at Rome for
a mere four years.
IA that short length Of time, however,
he had given every evidence Of possessing
unusually high abilities. The Italo-Turk-
ish war came during his service in Rome.
At this time Austria and Italy were on
anything but friendly terms and it was
to his efforts in great part that the two
countries did not at that time ny at each

of his predecessors in the same office. His
name Is sure of being preserved eternally
by history II only because 1t appears at
the end of many historical documents.
1t was not long after smoke began
pouring out of the political house Of Won
Jagow that the French press spread the
alarm that the political houses Of Won
Tirpitz, the German high admiral, and Of
DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg. German
chancellor. were completely wrapped in
flames. 1t seems. according to the French
press, that each of these distinguished
gentlemen set fire to the house Of the
other.
The recent suppression Of the Deutsche
Tages Zeitung was intimately connected
with this row In the kaiser's family. The
suppression was really the result of q
quarrel between Won Tirpitz and the
chancellor. il the Paris Figaro is to be
believed. Says the Figaro:
''The seizure of the Deutsche Tages
Zeitung far surpasses the simple suppress
sion of a newspaper. There is a quarrel
between Admiral Won Tirpitz, chief of the
German navy, minister Of marine and
chief naval. counselor of the kaiser, and
DR.. Won Bethmann-Hollweg, chancellor
of the empire

A Museum Of Crime.

Professor Hans Gross of the Uni
versity of Gratz. Austria, has the credit
Of establishing the first museum of
criminology and a criminaistic labo-
ratory, where the weapons, tools and
other paraphernalia and materials used
by criminals are assembled to assist in
the analysis of the workings of crimi-
nal minds and study Of methods and
systems for dealing with this large and
dangerous class Of every community.
This museum was established in 1895,
pnd since then other establishments of
the same character have been organ
ized.
One of the most important of these
is the Society Of Criminology and So
cial Defense in Paris. which has q
membership Of more than 200, in-
Guiding many prominent representa-
tives Of the law, the police and medical
profession, and it was organized to
concentrate and centralize the scattered
efforts Of individuals who We're study
ing this disquieting social problem and
to make the results Of their work avail
able for mutual information.
