BRITISH PAPERS RENEW ATTACKS
 LIN GOVERNMENT FUR BLUNDERs
Republican A. P. Leased Wirel

LONDON, April 17.-Today, the date fixed for the cabinet council to make a final decision as to whether married men should be conscripted, the attacks on the government by newspapers de- voted to the cause of conscription, reached the climax of vehemence.
 All the governments alleged blun- ders-at Antwerp, and in the Dardan- elles, and Mesopotamia-its alleged mistakes and delays in connection with munitions and the air service, were reviewed and contrasted with the per- feet organization reigning in enemy countries.
 The Times military correspondent printed an article with an elaborate map, purporting to show the exact disposition of enormous forces of Ger man troops massed along the British front in Flanders and France, and drawing the conclusion that Great Bri- tain still is lacking the necessary re- serves to meet a big attack.
 1 These newspapers are openly advo- eating the overthrow of the "ineffi- cient' ministry, and exhort the mem bers of parliament not to lose the op- portunity now appearing to compel the government either to conscript married men or resign.
 Throughout the afternoon in the lob bies of parliament there were rumors of grave cabinet dissentions and of possible resignations of minority min- isters who favor universal service.
 The council of ministers met late this afternoon and sat for little over hal1 an hour. Immediately afterwards the leading ministers attended the wal council, which it is understood was helC as a result of the decisions arrived al by the cabinet council. What thes, decisions were has not yet transpired They will be given to parliament by Premier Asquith tomorrow.
 According to the best information however, there will be no resort t, compulsion for married men, and tn, measure adopted will be along tn, lines already indicated in the dispatche of the Associated Press, that there vii be no general compulsion on the line of equal sacrifice for all"
 The press association says it under stands that while differences of opin ion have manifested themselves anon, the ministers, a serious crisis in tn ministry has thus far been avoided. IT to the present there is no news of an, resignations from the cabinet
 Premier Asquith had an audienc with King George after the war coun cil, presumably to acquaint the kim with the nature of the decision adopted

LONDON. April 1.-The foreign of- flee tonight issued statement for publication in the British press, an- nouncing a settlement of the cases of the Chicago meat packers. arising from the seizure of a number of their cargoes. In addition to Armour, Swift, Hammond. Morris. and Schwar- zsehild and Sulzberger companies, the case of the Cudahy company. which was represented by British solicitors is included in the settlement. The foreign office statement declares in part: The settlement provides that his majcsty's government. in consider ation of a sum of money paid to the packers shall regulate the shipment between shippers of all packing house products to neutral European coun- tries, during the continuation of the war.

as being determined to force the question to a speedy settlement with out quibbling or diplomatic discus- sion.
 Although it will not figure in the communication to Germany because the necessary evidence is not at hand the case of the British steamship Eastern City occupied attention at the state department today. A consular report from Cardiff Wales said the ship was sung April 9, by shell fire l50 miles off Cardiff and that all persons aboard including two Ameri- can citizens had been saved. The fact that the crew apparently was forced to take to open boats 150 miles from shore indicated to officials that the commander of the submarine failed to observe the assurance given hy Germany that passengers and crew of vessels should be removed to- a place of safety before they were sunk and that the distance from shore and the conditions Of the weather should he considered. It was not made clear in the dispatch whether the vessel was warned. and further details have been asked for. yi -e.
 It was understood tonight that the note to Germany is of such length that several hours will be required to put it into diplomatic code. At least 4S hours twill have to be allowed for it's transmission to Berlin and several hours more will be required by ths American embassy there to decode it If, as is planned, the note is started over the cables tomorrow, it should be delivered to the Berlin foreign of- flee by Friday night. It probably will not be made public until it has reached Ambassador Gerard
 Count von Bernstorff, the German Ambassador came to Washington from New York tonight. It was stat cd at the embassy that the ambassa 1 dor had no new instructions, although 1t was possible he will call at tht state department tomorrow with { view to learning the views of tn, United States and informing Secre- tarv Lansing regarding those of hi! l own government.

CAPTA|NFRANz VON PAPEN
 |S INDICTED FUR CONSPIRACY

the last named is a prominent Ger man whose name has been mentioned frequently in connection with Ger man propaganda. His arrest is eA- pected tomorrow.
 Federal. officials do not expect to bring von Papen to trial. While he is no longer immune from prosecu ton by the United States civil au thorities, since he ceased to be member of the German embassy staff, the offense with which he is charged is not eXtraditable, under any treaty with a foreign govern ment.
 The indictment, it is understood, was returned with the sanction of the department of justice and is be- lieved to establish precedent. No effort will be made to have von Papen brought here but the indict- ment will be held in abeyance, in case he should ever return to the | United States.
 The indictment charges in accord anee with the Welland canal plot. that it was the purpose and intent of the defendants to blow and destroy other property in Canada 1 Von Papen was designated by fed
 eral officials as the brains of the alleged conspiracy. It is alleged in thes indictment that he, with the
 others. began, set on foot, provided
 and prepared the means for a certain
 military enterprise to be carried on from within the territory and jurisdic- tion of the United States against the territory and dominions, of the king dom of Great Britain with whom the United States is at peace.

KING IT
 DECADE ACO |S
 DEAD IN CHICAGO
Republican A. p. Leased Wire]

CHICAGO, April 11.-George H. Phillips, who for brief but theatric period enjoyed the title of corn king in the grain trade, died at his home here today.
 Phillips a little more than a decade ego was smooth faced youthful look ing man in his early thirties. He rented flat ran small grain commission business and 'scalped" small lots in the corn pit of the board of trade like many other small traders. He was lifted above the ruck by enc thing alone-an almost uncanny l instinct with regard to corn from the moment the seed was in the ground until it graded in the big market.
 When most of the big traders were bears Phillips saw or felt, that there had been lot of corn sold for future delivery in Chicago and that it could not be delivered.
 ! He interested down-state men with money. in his theories and they bought all of the corn offered. Almost over night new "corn king" was ! born and his name was George Har- shaw Phillips His leap from obscuri- | ty to a position usually occupied by such millionaires as Partridge, "Old l Hutch" and Patton attracted national | attention and the public which knows the speculating market only in | times of excitement flocked to his standard.
 | Phillips, his assistants and the pub- 1 lie bought and the big men sold. Settlement day came and with it Phil | lips triumph. To ttis. the day of his I death, he looked like a boy. and hs was scarcely more than one then. Yet the veterans of the game had to come to him and settle with him at his own i price
 They sold him something they did not have, and could not get. and he merely had to name the price at which they could be released from their contracts.
 The newspapers were full of it. Phil lips gave up his apartment and bought a bungalow His associates present. ed him with wonderful diamond ring and the struggling commission busi- ness which had been his leaped to one of the largest in Chicago.
 Phillips, who entered the deal with scant thousands, quit it $70.000 richer, and his commission business was net tirg him as handsome an income as any on the board of trade.
 Then he made his great mistake. Attempting to hold up the price while he marketed the corn delivered to him in the courses of the corner, he found
 himself under the necessity of talk
 ing most of the corn offered. The
 load was too great, and almost quick ly as he had risen. Phillips, fell, and
 with him fell the great string of cus-
 toners left him.
 He retained the bungalow and the ring to the end. but little more
