GERMAN PLOT Barred
Lux8URG NOTE SHOWS KAISER
BUSY IN SOUTH AMERICA.
Nations Set Against the United States
More Messages Made Public
at Washington.

Washington, Dec. 22.-Evidence of
a German plot to align the nations of
South America against the United
States is revealed in kilograms sent
TO Berlin by the notorious Count Won
Luxburg, former German charge In Ar
gentina. made public on Thursday by
the state department.
In one of the messages Luxburg re-
ports that he induced President Iri-
goven of Argentina to enter into a
secret agreement with Chile and Bo-
ilVla, a mutual Impeachment for
protection versus North America" and
dld his utmost to have Peru included

Following is the statement of the
Argentine minister of foreign affairs

The kilograms are all that the Ar

made by the department of state in
the United States.
There are three kilograms not pub
llshedr as they allude solely to the
republics of Chile and Uruguay. The
government has decided that it should
not publish these kilograms and has
delivered them to the respective chan
celleries.
The kilograms show a number of
inaccuracies so surprising that no
epithet will fit them. as they are at
complete variance. both in substance
and form, with the terms in which
the negotiations were entered into. car

The German charges messages were
sent during last July, August and Sep

OBJECTS TO PAYING LICENSE
Auto Hearse Is Classed Same
AS Any Other Automobile.

Madison = Auto hearses should be
classified as automobiles and be re-
quired to pay license fee. This is
the opinion of Attorney General Wal
ter Owen to Secretary of State
Merlin Hull
G. B. Jackson of Rio protested
against being required to pay license
fee of SIS upon his auto hearse which
has Ford chassis The protest was
forwarded by the secretary of state
to the attorney general for instruction
on the statute.
1T is absolutely established in this
state that a horse-drawn hearse is a
wagon. think, too, it must be conced-
ed that a horseless carriage is an au-
tomobile and from that we conclude
that an auto-hearse is an automobile
If the running gear of Mr.. Jaekson's
hearse had the usual top or super
structure, no one would hesitate to
call at an automobile. 1t is in fact an
automobile and limited to special use,
and he is not required to pay great
er license fee than is the owner of a
roadster or touring car.
