Unidentified Persons Entered Fulton

The unwarranted assault with a

when unidentified persons forced an
entrance into the Fulton city Jail,
took possession OF Lawrence Demp-
sey, negro. accused OF cutting Dub

So quickly and orderly was the
work of the mob done that no one
was aroused. So far as is known
only the men who actually partici-
pated in the lynching know who the
persons are who took the law into
their own hands.
A coroner's jury. which was sum-
moned Immediately after the body
of the negro had been discovered,
returned the following verdict;
"Being advised from the evidence

kAISER'S DREAM
OF WORLD EMPIRE
PEACE MANsUvERs OF GERMAN
EMPEROR ARE REALLY WAR
MOVES IN PEACE TRUCE.
Program Calls for impresnabIe Uni,
from North Sea to Mediterranean
Cutting Europe In Hail.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
washington.-Germany's next peace
declaration, expected to suggest pro-
gram of territorial renunciation on the
east and west, is regarded here as
largely answered beforehand by infor-
nation revealing for the first time the
full scope of the Imperial Govern
ment's aspirations for conquest In the
South.
This information discloses as one Of
the primary aims Of the war plan
for consolidation Of an impregnable
military and economic unit stretching
from the North Sea to the Mediterra-
mean, cutting Europe permanently in
half, controlling the Dardanelles. the
Aegean and the Baltic and eventually
forming the backbone Of q Prussian
world empire.
In the light of German history the
plan shows how implicitly the Kaiser
has followed out the blood and iron
politico- economic methods Of Bis
marck for development Of Prussian
power. Considered in view Of the
present war map, 1t shows that the
major portion of the Kaiser's war pro-
gram has been accomplished, regard
less of what disposition is made of
conquered territory in France, Bel
GUM and Russia. A full realization
OF this situation, which will form a
sinister background for consideration
for whatever renunciation proposals
the Imperial Chancellor may make,
adds a new force to the repeated dec
laration Of allied statesmen that the
German peace maneuvers are In real
ity war moves, and that q premature
truce only would give Germany q rest
ing period in which to further Prus'
sianize and prepare for q greater
world war In the territory to the
southeast which she has conquered
under the guise of friendly alliance
Although officials have refrained
from definite public expressions oi
what the United States might demahd
as q peace guarantee, these possibili
ties recall with recurring emphasis
President Wilson's declaration that
America might fight until the world
is made safe for democracy"
