ALSACE-LORRAINE IS
ONLY BAR TO PEACE
Reichstag Deputy Declares
Won Kuehlmann Proposes
to Surrender Belgium.

AMSTERDAM, Oct 11.-During the
debate in the reichstag Deputy Con-
rad Haussmann said that the declara-
ton of Doctor Won Kushlmann. the for
eign secretary. that apart from Alsace-
Lorraine there is no absolute bar to
peace, was tantamount to a definite
undertaking that Belgium should be
given up.
That should be heralded forth to
all nations" said the deputy.
Gustav Stressman. a national liberal
said he would not oppose q reduction
of armaments. but he thot that dis
armament was hardly practical poll
ties.
Count Won Westarp, a conservative
thot that Germany's answer to the
pope ought to have made clear tina,
Germany would not undertake to dis
arm and hoped that Won Kushlmann
had not tied himself to yielding up
Belgium.
George Ledebour, social democratic
leader, dwelt on the damage done TO
the German cause by the revelations
concerning Won Luxburg, the German
minister to Argentina. He considered
that the populations Of occupied terri
tory should be permitted to decide
their own fate.

STATE COMPLETES ITS CASE

MARSHFIELD, Mo, Oct 11.-When
the prosecution rested its case late to-
day IN the trial Of Claude ]. Piersol.
charged with kidnapping Baby Lloyd
Keet. 1t was indicated that the man.
ner in which the letter "F' was writ
ten In two sets of letters introduced
in connection with the testimony OF
handwriting experts would be one OF
the deciding factors in the trial.
In two letters written by Piersol to
Taylor Adams, who was jointly In
dicted with him on the kidnapping
charge, the small "F'' occurred many
times and invariably was written with
the loops to the left instead of to the
right In letters sent to ]. Holland
Keet, father of the stolen baby, de-
manding ransom for the return of
the child, the letter was written in
the customary manner. G. V. B. Nee
chin, writing expert of st. Louis, and
DR.. Marshall ID. Ewell, microscopical
and writing authority of Chicago, on
the witness stand, both testified that
both sets of letters as well as a sample
of Piersol's writing. obtained in the
st. Louis Jail, were written by the
same person.
According to the experts testimony,
the writing of the letters to Adams
was natural and that of the ransom
letters was awkward and contained no
uniformity OF style.
Mr.. Keet was recalled to the stand
and testified that the letters appar-
entity were in the same condition as
when he had received them.
Defense counsel tonight stared that

Piersol himself might be placed on the
witness stand.
Judge c. II. Skinker. tbefore whom
the case Is being tried, said this eve-
ming that he expected to start holding
night sessions beginning tomorrow night
and that possibly the defense would
clear up it's case tomorrow and the
arguments could then be begun.

READING TRAFFIC
KEEP MEN BUSY
Officials and Employees Will
Work All Day Sunday;
Motive Power Is Scarce

Officials, yard employees and train
men, on the Philadelphia and Read
ing Railway, are hustling to prevent
a freight congestion. There were no
holidays to-day and Sunday will be
just as busy as any other day. Ruth-
erford yards is the busiest place on the
Reading system.
Assistant General Manager f. NJ.
Falck spent sometime at Rutherford
yards to-day and will be on hand to-
morrow to assist in moving the freight
from East and West. For sometime
shipments from the West and South
have been exceedingly heavy.
Motive Power Scarce
The freight and coal trade continues
to boom. On Thursday the Reading
handled more than $4,000 cars, in
cluding about 1,400 cars of anthracite
on one division.
Local coal dealers are wondering
where the coal is going, as scarcely
any of it comes to this city. 1t is the
general supposition that nearly all of
the 1,400' cars per day are sent to
tidewater.
1t is said that the Reading company
could use fifty more locomotives in
the c0al and freight service. The
eastbound shipments are enormous
and congestions at the Rutherford
yard are becoming frequent because
of a shortage of power to take care
of the traffic.

RAILWAY MEN TO
PUT OFF CONGRESS
War Conditions Will Not Per-
NIT Time For Personal
Interests

Atlantic City, April 81. - Railroad
men of the country, comprising 5000
members each of the Master Car
Builders Association and the Master
Mechanics Association. which build
and repair the rolling stock of vir-
tually all of the big and little lines in
the United States and Canada, have
put patriotism and preparedness
above business and pleasure and can
celed the annual railway congress.
The convention, one of the greatest
of national railroad meetings, was to
have been held here in June, in ac-
cordance with custom for ten years
past, in connection with an exhibit by
the National Railway Supply Manu-
facturers' Association. Last year the
exhibit covered more than $4,000
square feet.
The decision to abandon this years
meeting, for which shore hotelmen al
ready were making preparations, was
reached at a meeting of the joint eX-
ecutive committee of the three asso-
Citations in New York yesterday.
Give Up Personal Interests
The impelling reason was disincli-
nation upon the part of the railroad
chiefs to devote any time to their per-
sonal advantage which might be need
ed for the service of the nation. The
decision was communicated to-day TO
Albert T. Bell, chairman of the con-
vention committees of the Chamber
of Commerce and the Hotel Mems
Association. 1t follows:
The proposed June convention of
our associations has been postponed
for one year. Conditions existing in
the country having had their effect
upon business, the patriotic impulse
of our people to refrain from any eX-
penditure of time and money that
might be of use to our country in its
necessities impels this decision.
I'VE sincerely trust that this post
ponement is but for one year, and
that in 1918 we shall have a larger
convention than ever"
Hotelmen promptly wired their ap-
proval of the course taken, regardless
of the fact that the loss of the conven-
tion deprives the city of one of the
biggest and most profitable meetings
of the year.
