RUBBER SMUGGLER
JUST WALKS AWAY
Pleads Business and Then Makes
Escape.

Heinrich Bachmann, who was indict-
ed yesterday by the Federal Grand
Jury on charge of violating customs
laws by shipping rubber to Germany,
followed the example of lgnatius g..
Lincoln. by walking away from the
cficers in whose custody he had been
left. He escaped from the neutrality
squad by the simple process of excus-
ing himself and saying that he had
business to look after for couple of
hours.
Bachmann was arrested with Elsie
Schroeder, who arrived here recently
from Germany. 1t had been agreed
that the two would plead guilty TO the
offence charged and save the delay and
expense of trials.
Baehmann knew that the indictment
was to have been returned yesterday
afternoon. He also knew that he would
be formally arrested as soon as 1t was
returned. Up to that time he had been
informally in the custody of the neu-
trality squad. 1t was to escape the re-
strictions of actual arrest and coniine-
ment that he walked away. Mrs.
Schroeder still Is in custody and VIII

British Parliament to Dis

for First Time.

London, Feb. 1s.-Unofficially Ger
many is exceedingly busy just now
sounding sentiment regarding peace
among the Allies. Feelers are being
sent out to practically all countries eN-
cept Great Britain.
From reliable source learn that
unofficial oyertures have been made TO
France within the last fortnight, but
these have led nowhere. 1t Is said
that France replied unofficially that
she would make no separate peace un-
der anv circumstances and that when
the time came for peace she would in
sist on Alsace Lorraine being turned
over 10 her. Germany's unofficial offer
included a withdrawal from France and
Belgium and the payment OF an in
demnity sufficient to repair the wars
damages through invasion.
These frequent and persistent ru-
mors are exciting much speculation
here, for they are taken TO mean that
Germany's internal situation is far
from being as rosy as her military
position would indicate.
1t is argued that small military gains
no longer serve to divert the popular
mind from the financial and economic
pinch, and unless the government can
encourage the people by spectacular
offensive Of material advantage it must
openly announce that it wants to dis
cuss the question of peace.
The fact that peace is to. be discussed
in Parliament next week may be taken
as significant or not, according 20 ones
