AN S w Err
United Press Leased wir-.h

WASHINGTON, d. c., Sept. 10.
-Sweden's reply to this govern
ment's expose of German intrigue
thru the Swedish minister at
Buenos Aires was delivered orally
to Secretary Lansing today.
Charge Akerhielm submitted the
Swedish explanation-the same
one given to the press In Stock
holm earlier this week. This a9-
parently closes the incident so far
as the United States is concerned.
AS anticipated, Sweden contends
Aires was acting without knowl-
edge of Count LuXburg's language
when he transmitted the German
message to Berlin thru the Swed-
ish foreign office at Stockholm.
He adds that other neutrals-
the United States included-have
acted In similar capacities for the
central powers.
THE American minister here
during the present year, asked for
and received leave to send to and
from Turkey letters and tele-
grams" this part of the reply says,
land this at time when Turkey
had not yet gone to war with the
United States and its interests had
not yet been taken over by tho
Swedish representative at Con-
stantinople."

RIOTS STIR
BUENOS AIRES


BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 13.-No
such display of police and military
forces to preserve order has ever
been seen in Buenos Aires as that
which was called out today to
avoid a repetition of last nights
rioting and to afford protection to
the departing German minister.
Count Luxburg, dismissed for
the message he sent his home Of
flee under cover of the Swedish
legation, was expected here early
today to receive his passports and
leave for Germany.
The city was still in a foment of
excitement after yesterday even
ing's wild disorders. Half a doz-
en- smoking ruins of buildings
formerly occupied by German COM
mercial firms, attested to the VIC
lence of the anti-German passion
which animated vast throngs in
the Streets
The German club, one of the
architectural masterpieces of the
city, was badly damaged.
Police reserves, hurriedly sum-
moned, were totally unable to
cope with the mob. The police
were set upon, disarmed and
thrust aside. Firemen summon
ed to fight fires In German occu-
pied buildings, no sooner put out
one blaze than some of the rioters
ignited the structure again. Half
a dozen buildings were almost
wrecked, including that occupied
by La Union. a German newspaper.

REPEAT
LECTURE

Rev. Frank Dyer announced
today that he will repeat his lee
ture on Russellism and Ruther-
ford next Tuesday night at the
First Congregations church.
Members of other churches who
were at their own services last
Sunday night and were thereby
unable to hear DR.. Dyer in his
exposure of what the calls the
greatest bit of religious fakerism
america has seen since John
Alexander Dowie, are invited TO
hear the facts that DR.. Dyer gave
from the court records of Penn
sylvania and Canada in his lee
ture.
The mayor who. DR.. Dyer says.
..has been worshiping at the
mighty shrine of Rutherford's in
tellect will be invited to come
again to learn something, but not
to sit on the platform"
Dyer said that "the mayors
well-paid newspaper secretary has
written up for the press a very
sophistical argument for the
mayor, using words that the
mayor himself could not define on
f the witness stand without coach
ing to save his life.

WALKOUT IN

SPRINGFIELD ILL.,, Sept. 13.-
Practically all business ceased In
Springfield at 8 o'clock today
when the general strike, called In
sympathy with the striking car
men, became effective.
Following meetings last night,
the BARRIERS, grocery clerks, brew
cry employees and meat cutters
stopped work promptly at 8 a.
m. today. Every union except the
carpenters and printers is now
out.
Gov. Lowden issued state
ment in which he declared sinis-
ter influences are at work in
Springfield to prevent the re-
sumption of normal conditions
and suggested the disorder was
caused by the nations enemies.
The first disorder growing out
of the general strike will result In
a declaration of martial law, the
governor indicated.

Branting's party is likely to be
