IN REBUILDING OF RUSSIA

New York, March 29.-Far- reaching
consequences to the United States will
follow the revolution in Russia. Sue
cess of American capital there will de-
pend on the grit behind the American
dollars" Edward Ewing Pratt, chief of
the bureau of foreign and domestic
commerce of the department of com
merce, announced in an address here
today.
In spite of the lack of the sympathy
for the Germans that nation also will
play an important part in the develop
ment OF Russia after the war, Pratt
told the AmericSen- Russian chamber of
commerce.
"The crisis which has occurred in
Russia is not only the most dramatic
event In the great war" he said, "but
is undoubtedly one of the most far
reaching consequences to Russia and
to the future. of the continent of Eu-
rope. Great as is the significance of
this for Russia and her allies, 1t has,
believe, even greater significance to
the United States"

MODEL PRISONER.
Nicholas Makes No Com

Content With His Lot
ALI Glasses United.

Petrograd, March 2s.-Nicholas Ro-
manoff is a model prisoner. He seems
entirely contented with his lot. Reports
from Tsark oe- Selos palace today de-
clared he was continuing the regime
of early rising and plenty of exer-
else by walking that he adopted when
he was autocrat of all the Russias.
and that he has uttered no. word of
complaint at his treatment. The for
mer car spends the greater part of
his time in the garden of the palace.
The royal prisoner has. made request
of the provisional government for per-
mission to send his son, the former
czarevitch, to Norway on account Of
his health. The request has not yet
been granted.
Members of the palace guard said
today that during Sundays service in
the chapel at Tsarkoe- Selos it was
noted that the first one to kneel when
prayers were offered for the provis-
ional government, was the former
ruler.

unity of purpose of all classes to fight

them Immediately to the front. They
had been on duty here in .Petrograd.

AMERICANS IN ALLIED
ARMIES Want TO FIGHT
UNDER Their OWN FLAG

London, March 29.-Americans now
fighting the Germans under the French
or British flag would rather be doing II
under the Stars and Stripes.
At least that is the case of large
percentage of them, judging from the
number that have so expressed them
selves at the American embassy here.
Never q day passes now but one OF
several Americans in British khaki ap-
pears to ask how he can transfer his
services direct the United States army
in case the United States goes to war
Thus far they have not received a
great deal OF comfort. They face the
fact that they have lost their American
citizenship.
FoREsWEAR ALLEGIANCE.
To become a member of the British
army an American is required to swear
allegiance to the king and foreswear
allegiance to all other countries.
Legally, such Americans cannot be-
come American citizens again without
the process of naturalization, but some
have nevertheless devised ways of
evading this. It probably isn't trea-
son to conceal the nature of these
plans, under the circumstances. Any
how, the soldiers feel certain congress
will enact special legislation in theiI
behalf permitting restoration of their
citizenship, in consideration of the
purpose for which they desire it.
A further complication is the fact
that all such Americans believe they
enlisted in the armies of England or
of France for the period of the war
To obtain the privilege of serving in
American commands they must obtain
some concession from their adopted
country. They all seem confident of
receiving such a favor.

Herr SCheidemann, Socialist leader,
who has heretofore supported the gov

to have warned Won Bethmann- Holl-
veg that the democratizing of Ger
many must start at once. Dispatches
from Berlin even limited that the So

stitution of a constitutional monarchy
like England, claiming that Germany is
the only autocratic government now
left alive and in order to maintain the
friendship in future years of the rest
of the worlds democracies, she must
change her system.
1t was on March IL that the chan
cellor made first concessions to what
leaders must have observed was the
growing tide of sentiment for greater
participation by the German people in
the management of Germany. He then
declared important reforms would be
granted to this end-after the war.
Since that time the chancellor has
been reported as deciding that these
reforms ought to be made at once.

London, March 29.-The Spanish
cabinet today suspended all con-

to wireless advices received here
today. The act means institution
of martial law throughout Spain.
Labor union headquarters have
also been closed, the Madrid ad-
vices say.
Spain has been menaced with a
nation wide strike of all laborers
during the past few weeks, due, it
is understood, to complaint of the
workers that food prices were out
of all reason. Presumably the
situation has become sufficiently
serious for drastic measures.

tude toward Germany now. No one
has a right now to accept Germany
as a friend of the United States.
