PRINCE BUELOW WANTS
THE CHANCELLORSHIP
Prince and Princess Buelow Now in
Berlin-WantS to BE Chancellor
When Peace Comes.

Rotterdam, Sunday, Oct. 21.-
delayed Prince and Princess
Buelow are now in Berlin. The
princes presence, it is reported
here, is intimately connected with
the chancellorship crisis.
Dutch circles in close touch with
German politicians learn that Bue-
low is extremely anxious to regain
the chancellorship, and desires to be
the chancellor who negotiates Ger
many's peace.
This is the reason he conferred
with Erzberger and Theodore Wolff
at luncheon. He is prepared to
go to great length in the direction
desired by the progressive parties.
1t is said, however, that these par
ties greatly fear his candidacy and
will oppose him in the interest OF
another, since they regard Chancel-
lor Michaelis, whom they distrust
as certain to fall.

patches from Gettysburg. Pa, stat
ing that troops from that place had
been sent to one of the Carolina
camps for the winter because of
cold weather prevailing there is a
confirmation of former story sent
out from Washington that large
numbers of men from Northern
camps would shortly go South
In this correspondence it was
stated to be the policy of the war
department to send the men South
and that most likely most of these
would go either to Camp Jackson at
Columbia or Camp Gordon at At
lanta. While particulars could not
be obtained here today from war
department officials regarding this
action, because of the secrecy being
maintained regarding the movement
OF troops from one camp to another
those in a position to know believe
that within the very near future as
many of the Southern camps as are
able to take care of this incremen,
will get the bulk OF the Northern
army.
While some of them may go tC
the divisional camps ii appear.
| likely that most of the men being
shifted from the North TO the South
will go to one of the national camps
and as the Gettysburg men are sait
to be routed for Carolina it is likel,
that they will go to Columbia, to bt
followed by others for Camp Cor
don.
1t is impossible for the men il
the Northern camps. II is stated, tC

section and drilling and outdoor
maneuvers will soon pc out of tn,
