BARNES' LIBEL :! N-''T- .zTXA ESUIT TRIAL IS
 NEAR ITS END
With Testimony Complete, Two Questions of Veracity
 Left for Jurors.
(By James J. Montague.)

Syracuse, N. Two questions only were left at issue, whe: evidence closed in the Earnest libel suit this afternoon, after 26 days of actual trial.
 First, Did william Barnes, Jr., tell Williams Loeb. IT,. of a ,Mur- phy deal to elect Wm. F. Sheehan to the United States senate in 1911? Second, Did William Barnes tell Theodore Roosevelt in 1899 or 1890 that big business was promised pro- lection in return for campaign con- tributions?
 . Loeb stood up to his story of his conversation with Barnes under heavy fire today. He was corroborat- ed in part by former United States Senator Simon Guggenheim. who hap pens to be one of the bosses that Colonel Roosevelt has attacked savagely in the past.
 I'afavette D Gleason. of the state committee. of which Barnes was chairman. the last witness in the case. testified in flat contradiction of Loeb's narrative.
 \AS to the first issue therefore, the jury must believe either Loeb and Guggenheim on the one hand. or Rarnes and Gleason. w. T. Woolman. Newman Erb and Alfred Townsley on the other.
 Wollman had previously disputed Loeb. Erb and Townsley corroborat- ed Wollman.
 Upon the second issuc there is the story of Theodore Roosevelt on one e''1e and that of William Barnes on the other. Thus narrowed to a simple question of veracity the most ia roous political trial of United States history will 20 to the jury when the oratorical fireworks have been exploded.
 The last day of the trial was live lv with incident and tense with ex- citement.
 The, two principals both made fare we'll addresses to the question. Op- posing counsel fought hard over every question of testimony, and th' iurymen. showing no signs of fa- tigue after the long strain. leaned forward in their seats and drank tr every work that Barnes spoke with ponderous hesitation or Roosevelt sputted with eager impetus.

GERMAN CITIZENS TRY TO INFLUENCE
 kAISER'S REPLY
Urge That Answer to U. $. Note Be Conciliatory, Be-
 lieving This Best Policy.

Washington, May 18.-German- Americans, who for months past have been carrying on a campaign to in- fluence the United States government to course which, according to their view, would be just to Germany, are now with equal zeal, endeavoring to pursuade Germans of influence in the United States to convince the German government that the reply of Germany to President Wilson's note should be copciliatory and an appeal to the American sense of fair ness.
 They are doing all they can to per suade. those whose opinions will car ry weight with the German govern ment, that a reply along that line will afford the very best basis for an understanding which will be to the best interests Of Germany and to the best interests of the United States.
 They are putting forward two pro rosals which they think will open the way for a diplomatic agreement between the two countries.
 The first proposal is that Germany agree to cease attacks on passenger ships of any and all belligerent ns- tions as well as ships of neutral na- tions carrying contraband, provided the United states shall agree that no passenger vessel leaving any port of the United States shall carry ex- plosives.
 The.second proposal is for Ger many to call the attention of the United States to all violations of in ternational law by allies. and agree that Germany will cease the viola tion which form the basis of the American complaint against her as soon as the allied nations agree to cease the violation of which Germany complains, or as soon as the limited States gives Germany assurance that the United States will compel a ces- sation of the violations injurious to Germany

London, May 1S.-Viscount Hal dane, lord high chancellor, in the house of lords sounded a note of warning 10 the nation on the possi- blllty of conscription. He said:
 We are fighting for our lives in perhaps the most tremendous war in history and, even though we may think that under ordinary conditions and in time of peace the system of voluntary enlistment is one from which it would be the most difficult to depart. yet we may find that we shall have to reconsider that situa- tion in the light of the tremendous necessities of the nation. I think conscrlption may come but it is we'll to remember that our voluntary sys- tenn has given ns an army which, for quality compared with anything that can be pGt in the field"
 Lord Haldane's announcement ap- pears to confirm the idea prevalent here that, while recruiting has been satisfactory, the heavy fighting which has been taking place in Elan ders, where thu Germans have for long time been attacking with the greatest violence the British line many more men will he required if victory is to be attained.
