PART PAYMENT DUE
ON LIBERTY BONDS

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE first reg
u1ar installment payment on the Sec
ond Liberty bonds, 18 per cent. of the
face value, fell due today at the treas
ury and federal reserve banks. By
tonight the government expects to add
at least $685., 100000 to its credit from
the second Liberty loan, and probably
a great deal more, since many of the
100000 subscribers paid in full for
their bonds yesterday and today.
This also was the last day on which
first Liberty bonds bearing 81 per
cent. interest could be exchanged for
those Of the second issue, bearing 4
per cent. with interest at the higher
rate dating from today. Exchanges
made hereafter will be as of Dec. Is.
Another phase Of the days financial
transactions was the fact that $780,
100000 worth Of certificates of in
debtedness, issued August in antici-
patton Of the second bond issue, fell
due today and were to be met out of
proceeds of the Liberty loan payments.

BRITISH take
RAILROAD Line
In PALESTINE

London, Nov. 16.-The junction point
of the Observation-Disclosures railroad
with the line to Jerusalem Is now In
the possession of the British army In
Palestine, it was officially announced
today. The railroad line to the vi
entity Of Na'aneh and Ell Mansurah
came into British possession as a re-
suit of the continued advance OF Gen
Allenby's infantry and mounted
troops. The Turks lost 500 men in
prisoners on Tuesday, besides four
guns and a score of machine guns.
The text of the official statement on
the Palestine operations reads:
|. 'sOur infantry and mounted troops
continued their advance, Gen. Allenby
reported yesterday, and we now hold
the railroad line in the vicinity OF Ell
Mansurah and Na'aneh, including the
junction of the Damascus-Beersheb
railroad with the line to Jerusalem
1.-The losses inflicted on the Turks
on Tuesday were heavy, including 400
buried at Katrah alone. Our captures
on Tuesday amounted to more than
/ 500 prisoners, 20 machine guns and
four guns"

ENGLAND AVERTS
CABINET CRISIS

London, Nov 1.-THE storm warn
ing of a ministerial crisis which fared
up suddenly as a result of Premier
Lloyd Georges speech in Paris sub
sided almost as suddenly. Cha1leng-
ed in the House of Commons We'd
nesday to explain his speech, the pre-
mier contented himself by reading
the actual terms Of the agreement
creating the Allied council, which he
declared made it clear that the coun-
Gil was merely advisory and possess
ed of no executive power and there
fore could not override decisions Of
the respective governments or their
military stats.
The premier further offered to
submit a letter in the formal debate
next Monday if the house desired
and with this officer the matter was
dropped. 1t is assumed that the de-
bate will have a lively character and
although the possibility Of crisis is
not excluded. it Is suspended until
next week. The general opinion is
that in the present difficult situation,
ing against the premier in some quar-
ters, no statesman is anxious to
shoulder the responsibilities the pre-
mier holds.
A section Of the British press madf
a. great play on the alleged conneo
ton of Winston Spencer Churchill
with the crisis, on the ground that he
was with Premier Lloyd George at
Rapallo and in Paris. An authoritH
tive statement issued today declared
that Mr.. Churchill was not in RAJ
pablo and therefore took no part in
the conference at which the agree
ment was reached.

Birthday of
Gen. Wotherspoon

Major-GeneraI William Wallace
Wotherspoon, q. s. A, retired, will
pass his eth birthday today. Since
his retirement from the army in 1914
Gen. Wotherspoon has been Superin-
tendent of Public Works for New
York state. The eminent soldier was
born In Washington, D. c., on Sept.
16, 1850. He entered the army in
1873, and spent most of his military
career in Washington He was ap-
pointed brigadier-general in 1907,
and became president of the Army
War College. He was assistant chief
Of staff under Major-Gen. Leonard
Wood during the latter's entire four
years as the head Of the army, and
his selection as the successor of Gen.
Wood was decided on some months
before the latter retired from the
post. Gen. Wotherspoon's elevation
to the rank Of major-genera1 in May,
1912, followed a bitter fight waged
against him by Senator Bristow. The
statesman from the Sunaower State
charged Wotherspoon with being q
swivel chair" soldier, a pet Of the
administration, who had won his way
upward through the influence Of the
"arnay lobby and his long service in
Washington, where, Bristow alleged.
he was able to do favors for public
men, The Kansan alleged that Gen.
Wofherspoon had been away from his
regiment for % years, and that in
favoring Gen. Wotherspoon the Pres.
ident had jumped over nine brigadier-
generals who stood ahead of him.
Beside this vigorous denunciation
the Senate confirmed Wotherspoon's
nomination. When President Taft
left the White House and President
Wilson took his place, Gen. Wother-
spoons rabbit foot continued to
work, and he was selected for the
highest post in the army. He is gem
orally admitted to be one Of the best
administrative officers the United
States army has ever had.

German Money Will Be
 Used to Buy Liberty
 Bonds, it is Announced

Washington, October 23-Subscription to many million dollars worth of liberty bonds will be one. of the first official acts of A. Mitchell Palmer, newly ap- pointed enemy property custodian. On opening offices today MT. Palmer found scores of letters reporting money, credit or other property held by American in- terests for alien enemies. These will be tabulated late this week, and liberty loan subscription made for a sum prob ably much in excess of the actual amount reported in anticipation of later reports.
 One man wrote he owed a German firm large sum of money and asked permis- sion to spend 1t for liberty bonds which he would turn over to the custodian
 Many officials estimate that enemy property subject to custody of the gov ernment custodian amounts to hundreds of millions of dollars.
 MT. Palmer today gave assurance that corporations, or other business interests, operating with German or ally-of-Ger- many funds, will have as little interrer- ence from him as necessary. He said he would guard against placing any ob- stace in the way of smooth operation of business.
 Mr. Palmer said he had not vet worked out plans for seizing enemy owned real property including cotton and other ma ter;als held in storage. He said he ex- pected to ta'-e np thr ~'-"ss pointing attorneys and other representa- l tiVes in tne leau-Iie ci.lSs "is-...s <, N days. to act for him in supervising en- i emy credits.
