PRESIDENT FAUNCE DELIVERS
 BACCALAUREATE AT BROWN Treats of New Thoughts and Ideals
 Arising Out of World War.

Providence, R. l., June 17.-"The old world-the world of the Romanoffs and the Hapsburgs and the Hohenzol- Ierns-is topJling into the dust" sad President w. H. P. Faunce of Brown University in his baccalaureate ser mon today. What are the new thoughts and ideals arising out of the welter?
 "In the new earth for which we look the individual man is to have a vast ly larger horizOn-cau it world-cOn- sciousness or the international mind, CT world citizenship, or what you will may as well confess it, but we shall never retreat into our provincialism again.
 Tn the new earth society is to be more closely knit and the nation is to have more immediate control of every citizen. The socialization of our ideals and methods is advancing apace. Ev- cry citizen is finding a new joy in being of some specific use to the coun- try at large.
 We cannot talk of patriotism unless we are willing to come to the support of the nation with purse as well as rifle, with honest tax bills as well as flags over the front door. We cannot talk of food production while we con Jinue to pour hundreds of millions of bushels Of grain annually into the breweries and shrink from the war prohibition into which Russia long ago led the way. We must drop our sec tarianism and party distinctions. Fac tiOn now is treason and pickering is betrayal of the cause
 Tn the new earth right thinking is to be the basis of right action If we could cure the world of war we must drive straight at the causes of war-false ideas and ideals It is false ideals inculcated in every school in Germany for fifty years that have wrought this tragedy. We are at war against a moral insanity which re- wives the code of the Assyrians and converts it into the perceptions of re- ligion. We are against that code and all it's horrid progeny.
 'The new earth Is to mean inevi- tably a league of nations against any one government that shall relapse into ancient cruelty and cease to care for righteousness.
 The class day exercises Monday will be concluded by solemn pledge of alliance by the class to the United States beneath an illuminated flag on the middle campus. In place of the formal dinner of past years an in formal alumni night" at the Provi- dence Art club will follow the indi- Nidua1 class reunions Tuesday. It is hoped that many seniors who have enlisted may be present Ex-Secre- tary of War Lindley M. Garrison, Pro- lessor Stephen Leacock of McGiH uni versity, Herbert c. Hoover, Governor R. Livingston Beeckman of Rhodo Is land and President Faunce are expect ed to speak at the after dinner exer- clseS on commencement day.

BODY OF RUTH CRUGER
 FOUND BURIED IN CELLAF
Mrs. Marie Cocchi Held in S7,5oo Bail
 as Material Witness.

New York, June 17.-Mrs. Marie Cocchi, wife of Alfredo Cocchi, who kept a bicycle repair shop over the cellar where the body Of IS year old Ruth Cruger, murdered Wadleigh High school student, was found yesterday, was held in $7,5O0 bail today as a ma terail witness in the case. With the woman also were held Victor Blady, a chauffeur, and Joseph Palumbo, a clerk, 10th of whom, the police assert, are friends of Cocchi, whose extradition from Italy is being sought by the au- thorities.
 While an autopsy was being per- formed today which showed the young woman had died from skull fracture and a wound on the left side of the body, laborers employed by the police to dig in the ceEar for further evil dence unearthed the skates Miss Cru ger had taken to Cocchis shop on Feb 13 to have sharpened. The skates, with a pair of shoes attached, were bloodstained, and an ice chopper dug up near where the skates were found had bloodstains on it also.
 Dr. Otto H. Schu1tze, county medi- cal examiner, who made the autopsy expressed the opinion that the crime was another ripper" case and as such would have been perpetrated by one man who hardly would have had an accomplice.
 Many persons who have been exam ined by the police since the body was found were subpoenaed today to ap- pear before the grand jury tomorrow.

WAR THEME OF PRESIDENT
 HADLEY'S BACCALAUREATE
Impresses Upon the Graduating Glass
 the Need of Self sacrifice.

New Haven, Conn, June 17.-A war for great cause was declared to be an act of conservation, by President Arthur T. Had1ey in his baccala aureate sermon, delivered to the graduating class in Woolsey Hall, today. His text was John Xx:20, and he said in part: The life of the community de- mands the sacrifice of the individual life. This is the doctrine of the gos- pei: this is the teaching of history. A selfish nation is to all intents and purpose a dead nation. Athens, Rome, Byzantium, Florence have in turn il- iustrated this truth. Selfish sacrifice is a political necessity no less than an Christian precept.
 In closing President Hadley said:
 Gentlemen of the Graduating Class: in behalf of an unselfish ideal more urgent and more universal than it is today. Those of us who go to the front are called to face hardship and death. Those of us who stay a home have to do double duty, for themselves and for those in the field. Tn a great war, none is exempt from the burden. To bring such a war to a successful conclusion the commonwealth as a whole must be imbued not only with spirit of patriotism but with spirit of self -effacement. It is this national spirit, even more than technical eff ciency or military skill, that has given to Germany its strength.
 To cope with that spirit we must evoke a similar spirit of self Sa crfffce among our own people.

GERMAN GOVERNMENT
 CONSIDERING A NEW MOVE
In Method of Arranging a Separate
 Peace With Russia.

Copenhagen, via London, June IT, The German government which has been endeavoring by means of semi official communications, statements by the imperial chancellor, Dr. von Beth mann-Hollweg, concerning peace over lures, telegrams by Field Marshal Von Hindenburg to the council of work mems and soldiers deputies, socialist negotiators of the Scheidemann type and in other ways to come to a sep arate arrangement for peace or an ar mistice with Russia, is considering new move, namely, an offer of an ar mistice for the period of the elections to Russian constitutional convention.
 The Associated Press has this in formation from a reliable source. The informant, who has just come from Germany, says that government agents are desirous of reaching some such ar engagement, not only as a compliment to the Russian council and to further the growth of o-German Sentim ent, see some stable government establish ed there, with which it would be pos sfble to enter into negotiations. He cited one of the best known German parliamentarians as saying that the present authorities in Russia are not '-verhandlungsfaehi that is not capable of negotiating, and that there is little hope of peace so long as the present conditions in Russia continue.
 The German newspapers which have arrived thus far print the German so- claHStS' memorandum on peace terms without comment the VOrwaertS alone accompanying the memorandum with 8 column explanation of motives and hopes. But many of the papers com ment on President Wilson's recent speech and his message to Russia, and on the Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zei- lungs semi official statement thereon, which is treated as an official incita- ton to the Russian authorities to ne- being still in force.
 mites or annexations.
 The Norddeutsche Allgemeine Zei- lungs words this formula presents no obstacle to peace between Russia and the allied (Teutonic) powers which have never demanded from Russia an nexations and contributions, of course contains a joker" in the use of the word "annexations' instead of 'ces- sions" of territory, the imperial chan cellor's repeated declarations that the lands wrested from Russia and now occupied by the Teutonic troops should not be allowed to go back to Russia beinf still in force.
