Diplomat DenOunCeS Admiralty
LYING to Halt Internal Crisis

Italian or even neutral, II was added
to the British tonnage lost.
This information and similar other
dispatches OF growing distrust and
disturbances against the German
military and naval leaders is said to
have played large part in determin-
in gthe attitude OF President Wilson
toward the .pope's peace proposal.
Officials here expressed the opIn-
ion that the estimate of 100000
tons as the amount of shipping which
would be destroyed in the first year
of unrestricted submarine warfare
by Germany was in consonance with
figures so far at hand.
This is in contrast to the German
boast that 100000 to 100000 tons
month would be destroyed.
1t was pointed out at the navy de-
partment today that the losses
through submarines have been cut in
half since March. American destroy
ers have played a great part in this
result, it was declared, the addition
of large squadron of the American
ships to the allied fleets already in
the war zone having operated to
keep down the depredations Of the
undersea raiders, to which the de-
stroyer is the natural enemy.
Figures reaching here indicate that
Germany is producing two and a half
to three submarines a week and that
she has more than $50 in active ser
vice. Most of them are of the 800
ton standardized type.

GUST PEACE
DELEGATES

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 1.-Govern-
or Frank o. Lowden will prevent the
proposed meeting of the Peoples
Council of Peace and Democracy this
afternoon in Chicago. He issued a
statement to this effect at noon. The
statement declares the meeting to be
unlawful and would tend to produce
rioting and disorder.
The action of the governor is tax.
EN- at the urgent request of the Him
OILS Council of National Defense,
which appealed to the chief executive
against the meeting.
Governor Lowden had decided to
prohibit the gathering before he
knew that the delegates OF the peace
council had already gone into session
in Chicago.
If necessary, the governor said, the
militia will be used to prevent the
meeting. The statement was issued
after the governor had spent the
morning in investigating the activi-
ties Of the organization and had con-
ferred with Adjutant General Frank
S. Dickson. He ordered the adju-
tant general to take such steps as he
deemed advisable In stopping the
meeting.
The statement issued by the gov
ernor follows:
The governor is charged with the
responsibility Of preserving peace In
the state. If, in his judgment, dis
order and riot are likely to result
from this so-called peace meeting, Il
is his duty, and he has the power, to
prevent the meeting. His understand
ing is that while the meeting pur-
ports to be in the interests Of peace
1t is really intended to obstruct the
government in the prosecution of the
war in which we are now engaged
and rioting in Illinois. He Will not
and is calculated to produce disorder
therefore, permit this meeting to be
held in Illinois,"

lin administration circles several days
ago, but no hint of them has been
permitted to be made public.
According to excerpts today, DR..
Erzberger, during discussion of the
submarine situation, flatly accused
Admiral Won Capelle of Justification
and defied him to deny 1t. Capelle
was unable to make satisfactory
answer. Nor could he give the meth
cd by which the figures had been ar
rived at showing large destruction
OF English tonnage, which he had
presented to the main committee.
Erzberger then described the meth
cd of the admiralty in drawing up
figures of British losses for dissem-
nation to the public. He declared
they were ridiculous" and a plain
falsehood. When any ship was sunk.
he said, the admiralty had been in
the habit of giving, not the registered
tonnage of the ship, but the dead
weight, and, in addition, adding tho
weight of the cargo to the tonnage
of the ship.
In other words, If a 3000-ton ship
were sunk and it carried 1000 tons
of cargo, the admiralty would count
it 5000 or more tons of shipping de-
stroyed. In addition, Erzberger
charged, the admiralty, to make the
people believe heavy inroads were
being made into the English mercan-
tile fleet, was listing all tonnage de-
stroyed as British. No matter wheth-
err torpedoed ship was French,

Washington, Sept. 1.-Confidential
information of a serious rupture in
the German government between the
main block of the reichstag and the
admiralty authorities over the sub
marine warfare has reached Washing
ton.
The situation, described as critical,
followed violent denunciation OF
Admiral Won Capelle, head of the
German admiralty, by DR.. Matthias
Erzberger, leader of the centrum, be-
fore the main committee of the reich
stag. Dr. Erzberger is the man who
brought about the recent crisis which
resulted in the overthrow of Beth
manu- ollweg as chancellor and led
to an imperial rescript promising the
Decentralization of the Prussian cleo
toral system. He is one Of the lead
ing peace workers in Germany.
The outburst against Capelle is
only one evidence, according to these
dispatches, of the growing unrest
among the German masses. The ad-
fniralty chief was accused of falsi-
flying figures of enemy tonnage losses
in order to keep down the wrath of
the Germans which would have
overwhelmed the men who promised
them victory through the submarine
and then failed TO make good.
The dispatches containing details
Of the clash between Erzberger and
Capelle were received by American
special agents. They were received

They are forced to buck tremend-
Gus opposition organized by the mast

SYNOPSIS:
James Thornton is a wealthy i'm
porter of japanese art in San Fran
cisco. His daughter, Mildred, is in
love with a young fellow, Harry Max
well. Harry looks upon her as
child and retains his old attitude of
affectionate indifference to her. Sato
is employed by her father and later
made a partner in the business. He
is deeply in love with Mildred, but the
fact Of their difference of race re-
strains him from showing 1t.
Harry Maxwell is appointed to
position in the American embassy in
Mexico City. Mildred is heart broken
over his going.
In Mexico City Harry meets a dem
monde, Bonita. She likes him from
the first and seeing that he does not
suspect what she really is, hides the
fact from him. She plays on his SYM
pathies until, finally, Harry marries
her. The American ambassador,
learning Of his intention, races to the
church and arrives just after the
marriage has been concluded. He
denounces Bonita and tells Harry the
kind of woman he has made his
wife. Harry is stunned. Bonita can
not deny it, and Harry goes home.
Meeting Mildred again, he now real
ICES what he has lost, and she, in
her delight to see him, shows him

Shipping Of Whea|

Washington, Sept. NO grain
will be permitted to leave this coun-
try for Holland at present, II was an
nounced today. Licenses for 100
Dutch grain ships have been refused.
The agreement by which the Hol-
landers were to divide their cargoes
between Holland and Belgium has
been Cancelled by the embargo admin
istration board.
In making the announcement, the
board emphasized that the United
states is willing to feed the neutrals
but that the needs of this country
must be considered first. The same
attitude is expected to be observed
in dealing with exports to other neu-
trail countries.
In refusing licenses for the 100
Dutch ships, already loaded with
grain. the administration board made
counter proposition that the YES
sells be unloaded, their cargoes taken
over by the United States at a fair
price, and the ships used to bring
wheat and sugar from Australia and
Java.
Holland Wheat Plentiful.
The contention Of the board is that
Holland has a sufficient supply Of
grain to last her for months, prob
ably we'll into December. The United
States on the other hand has not yet
determined what her own needs will
be, further than approximate esti-
mates, which tend to show a depleted
supply. Hence, it is urged, the in
terests Of both countries can be serv-
ed best by using the ships now held
up in American ports to bring wheat
from Australia and sugar from Java.
Another fact entering into the
boards decision is that large pro-
portion of the grain on the Dutch
vessels has spoiled to such an extent
that 1t is unfit for human consump-
ton. 1t is still good for stock feed,
however. and the shortage OF such
feed in this country is held to ac-
count in a large measure for the in
creased butchering OF animals. The
board proposed that the spoiled grain
be used to. in a measure, check the
slaughter Of beef. pork and lambs
now made necessary by the shortage
in proper feed.
100 Ships Tied Up.
While the strenuous protest from
the Dutch government Is anticipated,
II Ia stated that the administrative
board will hold out for strict en-
forcement OF its decree and will not
heed any pressure from the state de-
partment. Indications were tonight
that Chevalier Van Rappard, the
Netherlands minister, already had
started the ball rolling to get the
state department to interfere in be-
half of this country.
One question brought out tonight
was what would be the action taken
by the administrative board In the
event Holland refuses to unload her
vessels, a possibility which 1t was
admitted had been strongly hinted nj

'If the schedule of price differen-
