JUVENILE
CRIME IN GERMANY
Some Reports Attribute II Directly to
the War.

Berlin, Jan. Il, via London, 7.30 D.
m.-That war has increased Juvenile
crime in Germany was pointed out by
Professor Franz Won List, of Berlin
university. one of the most distin-
guished criminologists and professors
of law in Germany, in an address be-
fore the Society for the Reformation
Of Youthful Criminals. This opinion
was substantiated by an inquiry re-
Gently instituted by the same society,
1t was brought out.
Professor Liszt recommends as a
remedy, decree just issued by the
military governor of Cassel, forbid
ding boys to visit saloons or moving
picture shows, or to loaf about the
streets during the evening smoking
and drinking alcoholic beverages.
The inquiry referred to by the
speaker shows that the increase in
crime is especially great among boys
between the ages of IL and 16, the
older boys showing greater measure
Of self-contro1
Some of the reports frankly attribute
the increase in crime directly to the
war. One writer, commenting on the
reports, points out that apart from
its direct influence In firing the spirit
of adventure in the half-grown, the
war has an indirect influence upon
boys left without control, through the
absence of their fathers in the field
and their mothers in the workshops
and also through the relaxation in
school discipline because of male
teachers going to the war and their
places being taken by women.

There Will Be Nc Peace Without the
Consent of the Allies.

Petrograd, via London, Jan. IA, 7.45
p. m.-"Rest assured, as I said at the
beginning of the war, I will not make
peace before we have forced the last
of the enemy out of the limits of the
mother country and not otherwise than
with the consent of our allies, to whom
we are bound, not by paper. but by
sincere friendship and ties of blood"
Emperor Nicholas in these words
addressed one of his armies on the
Russian front during the week preced-
ing the Russian Christmas, once more
replied to the rumorS OF separate
peace in Russia, which from time to
time have run throughout the country
and even reached the men in the
trenches.
The emperor after visiting the ar
mics on the southern front, reviewed
those of General Evert, commander
in -chief of the forces in the west. The
imperial train stepped at Zamarie on
the Alexandroffsky railway. The en-
peror rode in an automobile, accom-
panied by General Evert, to a field
where reserves were on parade. The
troops passed in review before the
emperor. who was mounted on big
bay horse, the various companies
shouting a salute in unison as they
passed. All officers wearing the Cross
of st. George took places beside the
emperor and after the review he con-
versed with each officer separately,
dShCO QAS5ttOuS anu ScIISEdhy INTER-
ested himself in their personal AID
official welfare. The emperor then
addressed the officers, saying:
Il speak to you. most heroic rep
resentatives of our army, wishing
deeply and sincerely to thank you for
your mighty yalor and heroic efforts
in the present campaign. I beg you
to pass to your men my words thank
ing them also for the heavy strain
they manfully endured, which all Rus
STA and I personally value"
Emperor Nicholas then gave his as
surance as quoted above that he would
not make a separate peace and after
yards again rode in front of his troops.
Addressing the troops, General Evert
called for cheers for the emperor, say
ing: "For the highest welfare of our
national leader, our dearly beloved
emperor, hurrah!"
Cheering continued long after the
emperor had dismounted and departed
from the field in his motor car. The
following day Emperor Nicholas in

BRITISH AUTHORITIES
ACTED WITHIN RIGHTS
When They Removed u. S. Private
from American Steamer at Jamaica.

Washington, Jan. 4.-Removal Of
Albert Clark, private in the United
States army, from the American
steamer Santa Maria at Jamaica is
not expected to result in a protest
from the state department. Officials
said today that as the removal took
place in British territorial waters and
Clark was released after brief ex-
animation, the British authorities APP
parently had acted within their rights.
The principle that any nation may
detain for examination any suspected
alien in its territory or territorial wa
tiers has long been established in in
ternational law. 1t is pointed out by
officials that such removals have an
entirely different status from those oc-
curing on the high seas, and that
the case of Clark does not parallel
that of the persons removed recently
from American ships by the French
cruiser Descartes, about which the
United States protested to France.
Suspected persons frequently have
been taken off American ships since
the war began by British authorities
