His Duties
rsn- cors,pondrc,l

LONDON. oct. 15.-There IS consul
cradle interest here as to the nature
OF the mission, or commission "nlch
Sir John Simon. leader Of tho hngiisn
bar. has just accepted. In an carry
parliamentary session questions VIII DC
addressed to the government spropos
of Sir Simon. new position.
The Pail Mall" owned by SIR henry
Dslziel. one Of Lloyd Georges hencn
man saws there Is rumor that "Sir
John Simon is to devote his brilliant
abilities in formulating and coordina'
ing the terms which. when the time
comes the Allies are determined TO I'M
,ose on the Central Po%ers.' One OF
simon's friends tells me that the new
appointee will have the rank OF COLO
mel in tho intelligence bureau OF the
General staff.
Simon was one Of the four members
Of the Asquth government who re
signed at the outbreak OF the war; out
his resignation was not accepted ne
continued rs Attorney General until he
saw that he had lost his fight against
conscription.
Sacrifices $4,000 Year
In civil life Simon has occupied
leading place at the bar, his reputed IN
come amounting to in the neighoorhooo
Of $4,000 A year. During last year
he PLAYED a minor role in Parliament;
in fact, he was classed almost as
pacifst. Simon was always loyaa.
Asquithian, and it is understood ne dc
clincd several offers to join the Lloyd
George government. He was a COL

tborities on international law, and OF
Francis ". Hirst, well known financial
writer and former editor OF The Econ.
omist." Simon IS especially proud OF
his ability as a French linguist.
Public curiosity as to why he should
enter the army at this time Is consld-
erably aroused, and In some quartz ms
there is a belief that he ~ destined 10
fiji a post similar TO that OF Coroner
House in the United States.
Interesting Session Ahead
With the opening OF Parliament TO
morrow the political situation Is bound
TO become exceptionally Interesting
Much frank discussion is expected in
the early session. Though the Lloyd
Georoe government is fairly strong, II
faces many difficult questions. Per
hans the most vital Of these is the
attitude taken by labor. -,
Conditions shave changed materially
in the last eight weeks and now. the
Liberals and Laborites bid fair 20 form
a working coalition against me So
called "bitter-enders.'
The air raids. food prices, food short
age and the Ministry Of Health for
Ireland are few Of the many things
affecting the political situation; No
session promises more stirring debates.

Country Stirred.

WASHINGTON, D. C., March l. The capital, and in fact. the entire country is stirred to the depths by the revelations made by the Associat ed Press this morning regarding Ger many's plans to involve the country in war with Mexico and Japan. Bern storff's loud protestations of love for this country and Von Hollweg's re grets at the breaking off of diplomatic relations and his declarations Of friendship are recalled and their in
 sincerity exposed The breakdown of the plan undoubtedly occurred when President Carranza of Mexico declared he had no intention of stop ping the exports of foodstuffs and oil. Germany's hand is also said to be seen behind the disturbances in Col cmbia and Cuba. on the Gulf of Mex ico. where, it is suspected Germany has. or planned on submarine base.

Iepislatiye Certificates Issue.

JUNEAU, March 1.--Certificates of election for the members of the Territorial Legislature were issued last evening with the exception of Holland and Murray, the Democratic and Republican candidates for the lower house from the Third division and Corrigan of the Second division. neither of whom is here. The vote is so close, between these and the dec;- sion depends entirely upon the deci- sion given with respect to dispute! precincts that the certificates have been held up.
 A certificate of election has also been issued to George B. Grigsby. an: he will be sworn into office today. His decision on the validity of the vote in the disputed precincts will then be come effective, and if followed by tie Board will mean the election of Sul- ger for Delegate to Congress and Hol- land and Corrigan to the Territorial Legislature. The Democrats havt control of the House.

the Fourth division, and possibly Utica in the Second division will not be counted. It is also understood that additional returns have been re- ceived from the latter precinct, but have not yet been opened. On this in depreciation of the law the Demo cratic candidate Charles A. Sulzer, IS elected by a small plurality, and T. v Holland has been elected to the Ter ritorial legislature over J. H. Mur- ray in the Third division. If the ad ditional returns from Utica in the Second division are correct. Phil Cor rigan, a Democratic candidate for the Territorial legislature, will defeat Thomas M. Reed, Republican.
 The Canvassing Board is still ir session, and it is believed certif cate of election will be issued some time today.

DEMANDS RELEASE AMtRNCAke0N'suLS FOUR BEING HELD AS HOSTAGES Germany Says Will Re Released When German Consuls Are Freed-United
 States Not Responsible for Consul
 Mueller Held at Hayana.
FOUR BEING HELD AS HOSTAGES

WASHINGTON, D. C.. March 1.-- The State Department today demand ed of Germany the immediate release of four American consuls now being held in Germany. This note was dis patched in reply to a note received from Germany stating that the Amer ican consuls would be released as soon as the German consuls ordered tn South and Central American pores had been freed. This probably rsfera to German Consul Mueller, detained in Havana by the Cuban government, as there are no German consuls held in the United States with the exSsep. tion of Consul Bopp at Frisco. The note to Germany demanding the re- lease of the American consuls insists that the United States is not respon- sible for the actions of the Cuban gov
 ernment, and that the American cou- sul in Germany must be uncondition- ally released.

Hot Fight In Senate.

WASHINGTON, D. C.. March l. A hot fight was precipitated in ;he Senate this afternoon when Senator Lodge of Massachusetts offered res olution asking President Wilson to communicate officially to the Senate the facts in his possession regarding the alleged attempt of Germany to stir up strife between Mexico, Japan and the United States. Senator Hard wick of Georgia opposed the resolu- ton, declaring that the executive ha! chosen the, wisest course, and urged that the resolution be. referred to the Senate Foreign Relations committee. Lodge hotly declared that the country should know the facts in the posses sion of the President to allay tho ex- citement now prevailing. Senator La Toilette secured an amendment. to the resolution asking the President to state the time he learned of the plot.
 Senator Stone. of. Missouri. in urg- ing the submission of the matter t0 the Senate Committee on Foreign<Af- fairs. apparently unheeding the sig nificance of his words. declared that he was informed. as to the source of the information; that 1t probably un- authentic, as everysagency was being employed by interested parties to stir up the American people to the point of demanding war. In his opinion. however, there might be something behind it, and he believed it would be wiser for the committee to investi- gate the matter rather than to have the whole matter made public through a discussion in the Senate. He stated that if the Administration could pro- duce the documents they would prove a trump card to silence the opposi- tion of the. Pacificists. and would force the desired legislation and stop an extra session of Congress. It would also answer Chancellor Won Hollweg's statement in his recent speech that the United States had inisinterpreted Germany's submarine policy.
