In addition, five members Of the
Prussian cabinet will be asked to re-
sign.
1t Is believed this decision reflects
the emperor's decision to stand by the
chancellor In the crisis.
According to Berlin newspapers
reaching Berne, Switzerland, the chan.
cellor told the reichstag that "the for.
mula of peace without annexations is
unacceptable to us. We cannot de.
clare our terms of peace. We must
fight and conquer"
The chancellor made q strong at
tack on Matthias Erbzerger, aeader OF
the Catholic center, who assailed the
pan-Germans In his address before the
main committee last week and advo
Gated peace without annexations or
indemnities. Dr. Won Bethmann-Holl
veg said Herr Erhzergor's attitude
was unpstriotic.
A Berlin despatch to the Cologne
Gazette, as cabled from Amsterdam,
says that after the chancellor made his
address, Matthias ErbZerger, the cen
trist leader. declared that the debate
had strengthened his conviction that
| the whole situation required energetic
action by the reichstag. He combat.
ted violently the claims OF the Pan.
Germans and other annexionists.
To this the chancellor, according tc
tho summary Of his speech published
III the Lokal Anzeiger, Of Berlin.
said:
