THAW AIDE OFFER
n. Y. District Attorney Eager to
Get BrOwer's Story.
Claims Already Has Enough
Evidence to Convict.

Philadelphia. Pa, Jan. 13.-Free-
dom. for evidence and testimony that
will send Harry K. Thaw, cratic
Pittsburg millionaire, now recovering
from self-inflicted wounds, back to
Matteawan or prison. is the swap the
district attorneys office in New York
offers Oliver A. Brewer and Walter
O'Byrne it was learned on good au-
thority here today.
Brewer is now held awaiting extra
dition papers from New York, where
he is charged with having conspired
with Thaw to kidnap 19-year-old
Frederick Gump, Jr. O'Byrne is I'M
der indictment on the same charge,
but police have failed to locate him
While Assistant District Attorney
Black of New York declared the state
has now sufficient evidence to convict
Thaw. it is known that they would go
long distances to secure the testimony
or one of Thaw's accomplices or
business men"
Big Legal Fight Pending.
Brewer was the bearer of the Dear
Master letters written by Gump to
Thaw. In one of these Gump is sup
posed to have declared he liked the
whlpplngs Thaw administered. The
boy mentioned specifically how Thaw
had flogged him until he could hardly
stand.
Despite intimations from attorneys
of both the prosecution and the de-
tense that Thaw will go peaceably back
to New York and there stage another
bitter fight, a large battalion of law
yers who will figure in the defense

CAN'T DEFEAT US
Kaiser Takes a Shot at Allies
Reply to .. s.
ssTO Crush and EnSlaVe Europe
Is Their Aim"

Amsterdam, Jan. 13.-The allies
purpose to crush Germany and enslaVe
Europe is now made clear: but as they
have failed in thirty months of bloody
war and "unscrupulous economic"
fighting to accomplish subjugation of
the central powers, so will their future
efforts fail.
Kaiser Wilhelm thus summed up
his belief of the entente powers posi-
ton in proclamation to the German
people," issued today In it he de-
sacrifices and asserted his confidence
in full victory over all the enemy s
lust for power and rage for destruc-
ton"
The proclamation reads:
Our enemies have dropped the
mask. After refusing peace with
scorn and hypocritical words for love
of peace and humanity, they now, in
replying to the United States, have
gone beyond that and admitted their
lust of conquest, the baseness of which
is enhanced by calumnious assertions.
Their aim is the crushing of Ger

dom of Europe and the seas under the
same yoke that Greece. with gnash-
ing teeth. is now enduring
Ready for Great Sacrifice.
But what in thirty months of
bloodiest fighting and INSCRIPTIONS
economic war they could not achieve,
they will also fail to accomplish in
the future
"Our glorious victories and the iron
strength of will with which our fight
ers at the front ard at home have
borne ali hardships and distress are a
guarantee for the future that our be-
loved Fatherland has nothing to fear.
Burning indignation and holy
wrath will redouble the strength of
every German, man or woman, wheth-
er devoted 70 fighting, to work or to
suffering. We are ready for all sac
rifices The God who planted this
glorious spirit of freedom in cur brave
peoples hearts will also give US and
our noble allies, tested in battle, full
victory over all the enemy's lust for
power and rage for destruction"
