PEACE PREACHE R OF
GERMAN EMPIRE is
NOW STRONG FOR WAR
DR.. Dryander Delivers Fiery
Sermon Of kaiser's S Birth
day Anniversary
By Carl w. Ackerman.

tCnited Press staff correspondent
Berlin, via wireless to the United
Press, Jan. 29.-Where one year ago DIR
Dryander, the "uuiet, white haired
man, - who is court preacher, pleaded
for an hour for peace in the service.
marking the kaiser 8 birthday, this veal
his sermon was fiery defense of Ger.
many's cause and a militant plea foI
Germany to steel herself for the de.
cisive battle which everyone believes is
coming. In this changed spirit he re.
Elected the sentiment of the German
people. His sermon of Saturday has
evoked the deepest approval every
where.
We know" he said, speaking at the
special cathedral services commemorat.
ing the birthday of Germany y ruler,
THAT before us is the decisive battle
which can be fought through only with
the greatest sacrifices. But in ali cases
of the past God had helped us and God
will fight for US today through our lead
ers and our soldiers. We neither willed
nor wanted this war--neither the kaiser
nor the people. We hoped for peace as
the kaiser extended his pace proposal,
"AN "AtH uhAdiu VI IflNOnLY ana ln-
suits, our enemies slapped the back of
the kaiser's extended hand of peace.
''To such enemies there is only one
voice-that of cannons. We continue
the war with a clear conscience and
with trust in God that He will bring
us victory. God cannot--he will not
permit the German people to go down. -
Or. Dryander's sermon was delivered
before an audience of the highest mobiles
of royalty and of officialdom that has
been gathered in year-since his pre-
yious sermon on the kaiser,s birthday.
The service and the sermon were by far
the most impressive and awe inspiring
religious services that I have attended
here in two years.
Near the front sat Ambassador Ger
ard in full evening clothes while near.
by were the other ambassadors IN their
full court uniforms. Close at hand were
the ministers of state--includinp Grand
Admiral Won Tirpitz. Many other adj.
mirais and high officials sat in the bal
cony, while in the court box sat the
Crown Princess Cecilie with her Young
sons and German mobiles.

SERIOUS RIO77NG AT
JAUREZ OVER ORDERS
MEXICANS MUSTBATHE

James Butler, of New York, and Matt
VIM, of Louisville, KY.
The rioting yesterday started as the
result of misunderstanding when
United States began enforcing stricter
quarantine regulations because of the
increase of typhus at Juarez. More
than 400 women employed at this side
Of the border gathered at the interna-
tional bridge. Under the new order
they were not allowed to cross until 7
a. IN. and then only after rigid inspec-
tlon. Not understanding the regulations,
the women vented their anger upon the
officials. The crowd OF women rapidly
developed into mob Some of the
women lay upon the street car tracks to
prevent the cars from moving; while
Others smashed car windows and drove
off the American crews, Kissing at the
"gringoes.'
Carranzista officers rode into the
crowd, brandishing their swords in an
attempt to quell the riot.
A United States mail wagon which
tried to cross the bridge was turned
back. For more than an hour the port
was closed, no person being allowed to
cross either way. The rioting continued
for two hours.
AT noon, although the street cars were
recovered, the service was not resumed
and the race meet at Juarez was called
off. Crowds gathered at both ends of
the international bridge all day.
While the riot was at its height, An
dTes Garcia, Carranza consul general,
drove across the bridge in an automo--
bile and harangued the women.

big CABINET SHIFT
IS PREDICTED IN
WILSON'S NEXT TERM
New Men Are Likely to Take
Charge of Several In
pOrtant Portfolios
BY Robert J. Bender

| ohited Ffess start correspondent
Washington, Jan. 29.-A big cabinet
shift will take place early in Presi
dent Wilson 5 second term, it was learn.
cd today. This will be in addition IA
the diplomatic shakeup which will take
place about March or very soon there
after.
| These expected cabinet changes, how
| ever, will not begin, it is believed, un
tai several months after the president 4
second inauguration. In all cases, il is
SAID, the cabinet designations to come
will be voluntary"
The contemplated changes will af-
feet the treasury, agricultural, com
meree and probable state portfolios.
OF the four probable changes, that
Iat the state department Is the most un-
certain. Reports that Secretary Lansing
might succeed Ambassador Page at
London have been rife, but talk Of this
SHIFT is said to be based only on report
Secretary Of Agriculture Houston
will leave his post probably in the SUM
mer it is reliably reported.
Secretary of Commerce Redfield will
accept position with a large com
merce in the early fall and Secretary
McAdoo will enter private business a.
bout the same time.
There are the usual rumors Of other
changes, but there appears little likli.
hood that. beyond the four men mention
ed, there will be any other designations
during the first year of the president s
second term.
AS successors, Carl Vrooman has been
mentioned for Houston g place and
Representative Carter Glass for the
portfolio now held by Secretary Me,
Adoo.
The president, however. has been 50
engaged with international matters that
he has been able to give the cabinet
question little thought.

Ell Paso, Texas, Jan. 29.-Seriou
rioting by Mexicans at the Juarez enc
of the international bridge was resumed
at 7 O'Clock today. A crowd of 50t
men and women, incensed at not bein&
allowed to cross the bridge until bathed
began throwing stones and bottles al
the American soldiers doing duty as Gus
toms guards. Two of the guards were
injured by the missiles. As the mob ad
vanced across the bridge company OF
soldiers charged them with dubbed
rifles, driving them back.
Sergeant Peck, of Company A, Twen.
ty-third United States infantry, was
struck by the shower Of stones and in.
jured about the head. Roy Schuyler
OF the customs guard, was struck by a
bottle and slightly injured.
Company A charged the mob and
pushed them back across the center OF
the bridge.
About o'clock Mexican cavalry
with whips charged the mob and drove
all off the bridge, but were unable tc
disperse the crowd. cswsga ~
The street car company did not re,
sumo service across the bridge today
and Americans are not allowed to cross
the line. Shouts of "death to the grin
goes!'' are heard at frequent intervals.
Mexican newspapers printed here de-
clare that the rioting was the outgrowth
of feeling of triumph over General
Pershing's withdrawal from Mexico,
which, the newspapers declared, was
forced by the Carranzista government.
The Spanish Times, in commenting on
yesterdays action by the mob, said:
The leaders were telling the crowd
that the Americans can do nothing to
US, as was demonstrated by First Chief
Carranza in driving out the 'gringo'
army" /"
Andres Garcia, Mexican consul gen
eral, attempted to speak to the mob this
morning from an automobile. The mob.
composed mostly of men and boys, boot
ed and refused to listen to him.

lieved today to have been the
fate of John Hammersley, gov

a rifle.
The corpses of three wolves
were near the edge of the

until his ammunition was ex
hausted and the pack over
whelmed him. The scene was q
