STATEMENT BYLOWDEN
Governor Tells Why He Ordered
Out Troops.
Asserts Paciflst Meeting Was Designed
for Purpose of Bringing on
Draft Riots.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. Ex-Governor
ment on the Pacifist "Big Bill' situa-
ton:
1.-The governor was Informed that
the so-called National Council Of
America for Democracy and Peace pro-
posed to hold another meeting in Chi
cago, the chief Of police having been
instructed not to interfere. This, Of
course, was big surprise to him.
Having no state troops in Chicago
at the present time, the governor tried
to communicate with General Carter,
commanding the central department at
Chicago for the purpose Of preventing
the meeting. He failed, however, to
reach General Carter He also tried
to communicate with Sheriff Treager,
but was Informed that the sheriff was
out Of town and would not be back
until late in the afternoon.
HE at once ordered the adjutant
general to proceed to Chicago with
troops to prevent the further con-
tfnuance Of the meeting. These troops
have now arrived in Chicago. The
governor is satisfied that this meeting
was designed for the purpose of bring
ing on draft riots and obstructing the
government in other respects. For
that reason he has felt that he should
use all the resources at his command
to suppress such meeting"

Charges KAISER
With MURDER
Head of ROumanian Mission to
U. S. Says Ruler Wanted
War.
CAUSED DEATH OF ARCHDUKE
Ferdinand Assassinated Because He
Would Not Consent to Austria
Joining in War, Declares
Dr. VasiIe Lucaciu.

Washington, Sept. 3.-The charge
that the kaiser not only wanted the
war, but plotted it's immediate cause,
the assassination OF Archduke Franz
Ferdinand at Sarajeyo, in July, 1914,
was officially made public here through
Dr. Vasile Lucaciu, head Of the Rou-
manian mission to the United States.
The statement, contained in an ap-
peal to all Roumanians in the United
States to attend a meeting at Youngs-
town, o., today, can be thoroughly
proved, Doctor Lucaciu says.
The crown prince he declares, would
not consent to Austria Hungary join
ing in the war planned by Kaiser Will
helm.
Hence he was cunningly put out
Of the way by assassins hired by the
kaiser and Count Tisza, then premier
of Austria-Hungary.
Gives Proof Of Statement.
Doctor Lucaciu says:
GAS proof, there stands the i'm
pertinent ultimatum sent to Serbia,
originating with Tisza and approved
by the kaiser.
every much has been said about
the causes of this war. We will not
enter into a specific discussion Of these
causes. Only this fact we wish to call
attention to-a fact sufficiently ex-
posed in the columns of the French
newspaper ILLUSTRATION in February
and March of 1916, that the assassina-
ton of Crown Prince Franz Ferdi-
nand was planned in Berlin, Vienna
and Budapest, and was carried out
with great cunning and perfidy by
Count Tisza, the former premier Of
Hungary.
Calls Killing Pretext.
"The kaiser and his satellite, Count
TIsza, are the moral authors of this
horrible crime because the prince re-
fused to consent to Austria-Hungary's
participation in the war which Ger
many and the kaiser and Count Tisza
had decided upon.
'The assassination committed by
them through hirelings was only a
pretext, an infamous mask under
which was hiding the desire to reign,
the greed for profits, the instinct Of
oppression of the Hungarian race,
their devilish hatred Of the liberty Of
the people and of national rights, and
this infamous pretext concOcted with
so much cunning was used to bring
about this terrible slaughter over the
civilized world"
: The statement of the Roumanian
mission was eagerly read here. The
charge is not new one. But this, so
far as diplomatic Washington could
learn. is the first time it has been
given official utterance.
