TO AID PEACE AFTER WAR
Chancellor HoIiweg Tells Reichstag
Nation Will Cooperate to Form
international League.

Berlin, Nov. 11.-Germany, after the
end of the war, will cooperate. with
other powers in seeking practical
means for obtaining an enduring world
peace through an international tri-
bunal, Chancellor Won Bethmann-HOll-
veg told the reichstag's main commit
tee.
The chancellor, discussing the in
f1uence of the origin of the war on
future peace, added: Gentlemen, we
have nothing to fear from any tri-
bunal.'
The chancellor replied to the speech
made by Lord Grey, British foreign
secretary, to foreign newspaper men,
in which he said that the origin Of
the present war must influence peace
conditions and that Germany would
be entitled to ask for guarantees
against future attacks if the present
war really were forced upon Germany.
OF course Lord Grey at once added
that Germany's Interpretation of the
origin of the war was incorrect and
that the war was not forced upon Ger
many, but was forced by Germany
upon Europe.

ACCUSED BY GERMAN ENVOY
Letters Addressed to Wife of Won
Bernstorff Cause Trouble for
Armgaard Graves.

Washington, Nov. 14.--Armgaard
Karl Graves. a professed foreign Ger
man and British spy, was arrested on
Saturday at the home of Prince Won
Hatzfeldt- Trachenberg, in this city,
charged with attempting to blackmail
Countess Won Bernstorff, wife of the
German ambassador. r. Bruce Bic
laski, chief of the bureau of investiga-
ton, stated that Graves had attempted
to obtain $4,000 from Prince Won HAITI
feldt, counselor Of the German EN-
bassy, for the surrender of stolen let
tiers addressed to Countess Won Bern
storff. The letters, Mr.. Bielaski as
serted, were from a cousin of the
countess in Germany, and the fact that
they contained endearing terms prob
ably moved Graves to believe they
would embarrass her if made public.
Mr.. BielaSki asserted that Graves OBJ
tanned the letters from one or more
persons who had Struggled them past
the British censor. His bail was fixed
at $1,000 and was furnished by @ pro-
fessional bondsman. The letters adj
dressed to the countess, he said, were
from woman well known in court
circles in Berlin. They were not in
code, but, according to Graves, were
so worded as to convey secret informal
ton of political nature to the am
bassador.
