GERMAN NEWSPAPERS FIND
 FAULT WITH FOREIGN PRESS
Fer Their Accounts of the Proceedings
 of the Reiohstas.

Berlin, by wireless to Sayville, Jan. 2U.-In their reviews of the session of tie reichstag, just concluded. the Ger man newspapers find considerable fault with some foreign press accounts of the proceedings of the body, especially fl connection with the defeat of the bill for increasing the pay of private soldiers. In It's synopsis of the com ment, the Overseas News agency says:
 Tn discussing the debate regarding the pay of private soldiers, the news papers call attention to the fact that this was misrepresented and misquoted in some of the foreign newspapers. Tho comments to which objection is made declare that the bill lacked a majority because the reichstag felt that Germany was unable to bear the full burden in this time of war. Ger mar papers declare that such an as- sumption is quite erroneous, since if such a view had been ehld no party would have moved the bill, which had previously been discussed in commit tes, and no one would have opened a discussion of the question. Besides, 1t is pointed out, 1t was provided in the same measure that the pay of some military and civil officers be reduced, showing that the social and not the financial reasons were considered the important ones. Finally, 1t is declared the bill was not adopted because the reichstag preferred not to deal with a question when the effects of its action

As a matter of fact, Dr. Helf- ferich in the committee discussion de- c;ared that the financial situation was such as to permit the war to be car- rie6 on under all circumstances, but that 1t was better not to burden the finances with provisions the effects of which it was impossible to determine beforehand r
 Passages from the masterful speech of the peoples party member, Dr. Haas. are reprinted, particularly his statement that from his experience on the front and from. conversations he hae had with enemy prisoners, he had the education of the average French the Russian, were below that of the German.
 The member, it was further noted. had declared he had found that all i,G German soldiers, even the most ordi- nary privates, knew exactly what their country was fighting for, and he de- ciared he had been convinced that the education of the German masses sloDg political and other lines was superior to that of the Russians and English.

CONTROVERSY OVER DETENTION
 OF INTERNATIoNAL MAILS.
Protests from Sweden to England
 Have Failed of Results. sa

London, Jan 20, 5.2s D. m@The controversy over the detention of fn- ternatfonal mails is widening in scope. without any signs of settlement The Angio-Swedish phase of the contro- versy is attracting much attention, but other nations affected are watch ing developments closely and, accord ing to indications. are prepared to in- tervene with something more formal than the inquiries with which they have already deluged the foreign office.
 Protests from Sweden to England, and vice versa, have crossed each other, apparently without bringing the two nations any nearer to an under standing than they were when the dis pute began. British traders doing bus mess with Russia and Rumania also are besieging the foreign office with petitions to have the question settled, as their business is certain to suffer from great delays if the postoffice fol- lows it's plans to have the parcel post for those countries sent by way of Canada and Japan. The British gov ernment has no information that first class postal correspondence has been detained by the Swedish authorities, but this form of mail is bound to suf- fer some delay while the parcel post Is being examined.
 The British government states that first class postal correspondence on vessels detained at Kirkwall is not be- ing seized or censored, but this mail is undoubtedly delayed while parcel post cargo vessels are being examined

Coroner Edgar r. Spencer, of Hop kinfon. has rendered a verdict that Thomas Dorr Main. whose dead and .charred body was found in the burn ed ruins of his home, three miles north Of Hopkinton City, was mur- sdered and that the motive was rob- bery. The text of the finding follows:
 "1-That the remains were the re- mains of Thomas D. Main.
 s.2-The absence of a double barrel shot gun and other things leads to the belief that theft had been committed.
 's33T That the presence of the body under the Kitchen and far re1novd from tn location of the bedroom and the presence of large quantities of charcoal under and around the body, when considered with the fact that letters threatening his life if certain amount of money were not forthcom- ing. had been received by MT. Main and the fear which he had of his life, warrant the conclusion that Mains death was not caused by accident, but that he was killed by some person or persons while committing robbery and the body was placed upon a pile of wood and set fire to in order to con- ceal the crime.
 sT, therefore, certify and find that said Thomas D. Main came to his death by reason of the unlawful act or acts of some person or persons un- known and in a manner unknown.
