THIRTY ANARCHISTS
 ARE ARRESTED IN
 GENERAL ROUNDUP
New York Police Think They Have Made Material Prog ress in Effort to Stamp
 Out Disloyalty

New York, June 16.-With the ar
 rest today of 30 anarchists and the
 seizure of large quantities of anti
 conscription literature federal author
 ities believed they had made material
 progress in their efforts to stamp out
 active propaganda in this city against
 compliance with the selective draft.
 The first step in the roundup was
 the arrest yesterday of Emma Gold
 man and Alexander Berkman, who
 were held today in s25,000 bail each
 on charges of conspiring to prevent the enforcement of the conscription
 act They were unable to furnish
 bonds and were still in the Tombs to-
 night.
 Anarchist friends and supporters or
 Miss Goldman and Berkman, who were unceremoniously elected from the led eral building when they attempted to deliver speeches to crowd of on- lockers, played a prominent part in serious clash between women rioters and the police soon after Miss Gold man and Berkman had been taken back to their cells. About 800 women who marched from the East side to the city hall to present a petition to Mayor Mitchell protesting against the state military census. were returning to their homes after being told the mayor was not in his office when they were stampeded by anarchist agitators. The women then reformed their ranks and started a second march upon the city hall crying Down with the draft"
 As they approached city hall park they charged the police reserves with hatpins and fists. The police were forced back until additional reserves were summoned. Several women and some of the officers were injured. Three women were arrested.
 One hundred and fifty young men who were seized last night at anti conscription meetings for failure to register informed United States Mar shal McCarty today that they would comply with the provisions of the la " and were released.

WILSON ADVISED

Moreover we would urgently recom- mend that MT. Wilson at the same tune obtain from his allies an expression or the war gains mutually assured to the members of the entente. He will ina that Premier Briand had to admit re- gently. in a secret sitting of the French chamber that France and Great Britain have promised Constantinople to Russia and in return Russia has promised France not only Alsace-Lorraine, but the left bank of the Rhine.
 He will further find that the entente has drafted complete plan for the par tition of Asia Minor, but which is stlli meeting with difficulties because the Italian hunger for power desires more than Great Britain and France will ap7 prove. Italy has been met with all cont ciliatoriness in the promise of further Austro Hungarian land.
 Tt will be very interesting for the United States further to learn that prom ises at the cost of Servia were made to Bulgaria as the price of it's entry into the war on the side of the entente.
 If MT. Wilson sets so much value on entire human race knowing for what aims America is waging war, he must urge that the war aims of her allies be made known to the whole world by the publication of treaties Only then will the world be able to judge clearly whether the peaceable and liberal ann which MT. Wilson proclaims is compati- ble with the aims of the entente. And then the house of cards of Germany's au- tocratic intrigues will collapse.
 New Russia has declared repeatedly that such war aims were not hers. Rus sia has rather proclaimed a formula of peace without anneXations and indemni- ties as her wish. The entente powers and their allies rather desire, in free and mu- tual understanding with Russia, to cre- ate a position which henceforth shall be a guarantee of durable and peaceful neighborly existence side by side"

 In several cases it was stated that ta bulation probably could not be finished until Monday.
 In addition to the returns received from federal reserve banks, great flood of subscriptions direct to the treas ury also was to be compiled. These sub scriptions probably will be distributed to the respective reserve districts of their origin, swelling their totals. What the total of this batch of subscriptions would be was a matter of pure guess work. Several large subscriptions were known to have been received, among them one for 5000, coo and another for Sl ,O00. GOO.

The peace terms of the German so- cialists is made in reply to the Dutch Scandinavian committees question re- specting their attitude toward peace as forwarded in a Reuter- dispatch from Stockholm set forth first of all that the German social democracy desires peace based on mutual understanding land condemns violation of other na- ltions' vitals interests. Germanys so- cial democracy agrees with the pro- posal of the Russian council of soldiers and workingmen's delegates for a peace without annexation, or indem- mites, based on the right of all na- tions to determine their own fate.
 REJECTION OF ANNEXATION
 Rejection of annexation, the reply says implies demand for the restitu- ton of conquered colonies and the res titution of countries which have lost their independence by the war. The delegation repudiates the proposed compensation for damages suffered by war as these have been caused by the military operations of both friends and
 
 enemies
 States unable from their own re sources to restore economic conditions should have international help, which should be mutually agreed upon. Bel gium, SerVia and other states that have lost their independence should regain it completely The German delegation demands recognition of the claims to independence made by Finland and Russian Poland
 AS TO IRELAND
 Respecting Ireland, Egypt, Trlpoli' Morocco, India, Tibet, Corea and other formerly independent countries, the del- egation desires the socialists in the na- Itions ruling them to endeavor to free them from foreign control. In the case iof nationalities with distinctive lang uages which are united to large states, such as the Poles Danes and French in Germany, the delegation demands

EFFORT TO INCREASE
 TREASURER'S BOND

Answering citation before Judge J. F. Stiles yesterday, County Treasurer M. ". Henry objected to the proceedings which were brought in an effort to require him to make an additional bond as treasurer. The treasurer denied the right of the board of revenue to re-estimate the in come of the county and increase his bond and the case went over until July be- cause of an injunction issued by Judge Pugh, which restraints the board from re- estimating the income of the county.
 MT. Henry contends that his bond is sufficient. The bond is $400000.

 The opinion of the Austro- Hungarian delegation regarding Alsace- Lorraine is supported by the Germans. They state that this territory never has been in- dependent and cannot be considered separate nationality, and furthermore that it cannot be included among the countries, control of which has changed
 during the war The historical right of France to the provinces is denied, but
 the delegation demands for them full equality as self governing unit of the German empire.
 The delegation suggests various measures for assuring a permanent peace, including the following: Establishment of an obligatory inter- national arbitration court and a su perior international judicial organiza- ton.
 Restriction of armaments, provided for in the peace agreement. It is pro- posed each country should have na tional army for protection against at- tack, but that the period of training should be fixed internationally, IS well as the means and measures of war which may be employed.
 The capture of merchantmen at sea and the arming of merchantmen to be fofbldden.
 Important channels and inter oceanic canals to be placed under international control.
 Contraband to be determined inter-
 nationally, excluding food and cloth ing stuffs from the contraband list. Postal communicat ton between com batants and neutrals not to be inter- rupted.
 NO COMMERCIAL WAR War not to be followed by commer
 cial war
 Abolition of protective duties The open door policy for colonies. | Arrangement of international labor questions in accordance with the in- Iternational trades union programme. l Secret diplomacy to be replaced by parliamentary control. 1 The German delegates expressed the opinion that European neutrals should have opportunity to participte in the new regulation of economic social, political and legal questions of inter- national character. The cooperation of popular representatives is taken a
 matter of course
 ! The holding of. a general socialist
 conference is desired unreservedly by the German delegation, which consid- CTS it the duty of every socialist to work for peace. Although not afraid to
 discuss the question of responsibility for the war the delegation believes
 that the aims of the conference would mot be promoted by such discussion.

HENRY ANSWERS
 SOLICITOR BLACK County Treasurer Alleges Certain Statements False
 and Malicious

Jefferson county's average daily bank deposits of $l00,o00 should draw interest of s1i.O0a annually, at the rate of S1a per cent. according to a letter which was handed the board of revenue yesterday Iy Hugo L. Black, county solicitor. Mr. Black asks that he should be given per mission to start proceedings immediately to secure this interest on deposits of the county The request was not acted upon bN the board at the Saturday meeting because of the absence of two members.
 The county solicitors alleged statement that interest is now being paid on eoun- ty funds, but is being used for the ben eft of individuals, which is both unlaw- tul and wrong," brought an answer from NJ. V. Henry, county treasurer, who is in charge of the bank deposits.
