Representatives of the troops

man population behind it, but never
theless, it is sitting on a powder keg."
Herr Scheidemann added that Georg
Ledebour. radical leader. had OBJ
structed the formation of cabinet
for thirty six hours. After the revo-
luton, DR.. Liebknecht. the radical
leader, wanted to join the cabinet. but
only for three days. The speaker de-
scribed Liebknecht as a person who
lacked every sense of responsibility"
He said he regretted the occur
rences of Friday, but declared they
were a natural consequence of the
appeals made by the Spartacus group
to the masses to arm themselves and
overthrow the government.

Secretary Barth's speech was re-

demands that the building be stormed

The crowd finally quieted down. how

Conference With Smuts.

ct sent Count Mensdorff to Switzer-
land to see Gen. J. C. SHUTS, who was
in Switzerland last March in the in
terests of the British government. He
succeeded, but I was unable to tell
just what terms Germany would
make. l do not recall that Mr.. Lloyd
George, the British premier, mention
ed any conditions last February.
Germany assured me that no definite
offers were received from England,
and believe this was true.
England appeared to intend to
crush Germany, and France showed a
similar attitude. President Wilson
was the only head of an allied power
who did not appear to have this in
mind. Emperor William could not
bring himself to yield Alsace and
Lorraine.
Regarding Emperor William. feel
that he did not want the war, but
he did not know how to get out of it.
In this, I believe. the heads of the
entente powers are wrong. for they
probably believe he caused the strug-
gle. was minister to Rumanla when
the war began and I honestly believe
that no one wanted hostilittes to be-
gin. have the impression that
neither Emperor Francis Joseph. En-
peror William nor their ministers
wanted war might explain the fact
that war started by saying that
there was too much diplomatic bluff
ing, with every one looking for the
other fellow to recede from his posi-
ton.
