London Fears .
Ex~Kaiiser May
Regain Power
Plot Foreseen F by British for
Him to Create Autocracy
Stronger Than Ever

LONDON, Nov. 19.-The rumors that
William Hohenzollern, former German
Emperor, may possibly return to Ger
many, rs supported by the Berlin "Lo-
kal-Anzeiger's" hint that he would not
be refused an entry to that country,
have created considerable stir here,
They are featured by several OF the
morning newspapers as creating an un-
certain situation, which is rendere d
more doubtful by accounts of the ac-
tivity Of German propagandists in
several countries.
New-York tribune., 1918-11-20
His Return Is Feared

The fear mainly is that the former
Emperor would sooner or later be-
come the centre of reactionary move
, ment in Germany when the present
revolutionary storm has blown over
and the advocates of this view conse-
qucntly fear his return to his former
empire.
On the other hand, the fact of the
former ruler placing himself, or being
placed, in the hands of the new rulers
of Germany would be welcomed in
other quarters. These rulers, "The
Morning Post" argues, should be
able to execute judgment upon him.
and in so doing would only be acting
as fitting Instruments Of justice.
There is everywhere, however, agree
ment in the idea that the former En-
peror's presence in Holland is intoer-
able, and it is insisted that he must
somehow be made impotent to do fur
ther mischief.

League of Nations Vital

The plan for a league of nation.
was another subject to which the
president was said to have given
much study. He was understood IN
regard this as essential for the
maintenance of the peace of the
world.
During his absence from the
United States the President plans to
continue to exercise all the func-
tions Of his Office. He will keen I'm
communication with Washington b
wireless while at sea, and by cabh
and, if necessary, by dispatch boat
while he is abroad.
While in France the Presiden
was said to plan transaction of anv
necessary executive business in the
American Embassy. Technically. ha
then would be on American soil.
Should he visit London or Any of
the other Allied capitals, the en-
bassies there would become his
executive headquarters.

The principal point OF difference

ACTIVITY 0F IMPORTANCE in
PROSPECT 0N ALL WAR FRONTS

On the western front in France and
Belgium and on the Italian front,
where tho contending armies OF the
chief beIIigerents in the world war
have displayed little activity for some
time, official reports announce re-
sumption Of hostiIities Of unusual ac-
tivity for winter months. While the
operations mentioned in the statements
from the various army headquarters
are of little consequences from mil
tary view, yet the general extent OF
the activity indicates that develop
ments Of considerable magnitude are
in immediate prospect.
Intensity of the artillery fire has in
creased all along the western front and
raiding parties and air fighting have
been under more favorable conditions.
The success of German raid on
British trenches west of Labassee is
announced by the British official com :
munication, which claims. however,
that another hostile party was dis
persed west of Villeres Guistain.s In

EVERYBODY MUST

Radical Order Issued and Rig
idly Enforced by Provost
Guard at Post.

Provost guards Wednesday afternoon
and night refused to allow passengers
TO board cars at Chiokamauga park
after they had been filled to seating
capacity. As a .rssuit hundreds OF la
borers were thrown late into the night
in getting TO Chattanooga. In several
instances men were elected who had
entered the cars after they had filled.
There was much grumbling on the
part of the Iaborers and soldiers who
were waiting to get to the city and
there was some evidence that fight was
going to take place. The walters built
fire and tried to keep warm while
they were waiting.
1t was rumored that all cars from the
city were being stopped at the state
line and that all passengers except
those seated were made to get out and
wait until cars came along with empty
seats. This, however, was found to be
untrue. Officials of the car company
said that whoever issued the orders TO
the provost guards had acted without
authority and that the order would be
rescinded.

RENOMINATES BURLES0N
AS POSTMASTER-GENERA

Washington. Jan. 2f.--President
Wilson today sent to the senate re-
nomination of Postmaster General
Bureson. This action was taken
because of law which stipulates
that the postmaster general shall not
hold office for more than thirty days
after the end of the term for which
he was appointed. None of the other
cabinet members. has been remoni-
mated. but it is contended that is not
necessary.
The unusual situation was brought
about by a recent agitation contend
ing that all hold over members of
the cabinet were in office illegally.
Except in the case of the postmas-
ter general. the administration con-
tends no denomination is necessary
The senate Immediately went into
executive session to consider Mr..
Burleson's denomination. There were
rumbllngs of opposition.

former place. During the period from
Jan. IL to 20, ten German airplanes
were brought down by the French.
More intense artillery firing between
the Adige and Brenta valleys is re-
ported in the italian official statement,
which also tells of small engagements
on the right bank of the Piave and on
the southeastern slopes of Monte Spi-
noncia.
King Albert in his reply to Pope
Benedicts peace note declares that
Belgium will consent to peace only
upon the guarantee of absolute polit-
ical, economic and territorial inde
pendence. The note of the Belgian
government concludes with the declar
alton that the replies of the central
empires to the pope's note have failed
to make mention of the "undisputed
rights of Belgium that his holiness
has not ceased 70 recognize and pro-
claim"
Evidence of unrest among the peo-
pie of Austria and Germany continue
to reach the outside world through
Switzerland and Holland. News of
the Austrian strikes and peace de-
mands appeal to be generally known in
Germany despite the efforts of the
censorship to the contrary. The Aus
triah hope that the German workers
would follow their lead, however, has
not materialized. due probably to the
very powerful military party.
