washington, Dot. 14.-whatever
promises Germany may make to the
United States and her allies,-they can
not serve as a basis for an armistice
or for peace negotiations as long as
the Hohenzollerns and the system Of
government they represent remain in
power, it was indicated in high Off
cial circles here Sunday. This. in eff
feet, is expected to be the reply Of
President Wilson to Germany's reply
to the President accepting the terms
laid down by the latter. But the gov
ernment asks the American people to
withhold their judgment on Germany's
note until President Wilson has re-
ceived official communication and has
had opportunity to consider it.
The President has heretofore made
1t plain that the German spokesman as
at present constituted cannot be
trusted. There is nothing in the
German note, officials pointed out,
that justifies the President in chang
ing a single sentence of his address
at New York on Sept. 27. In that ad-
dress. the President said:
l. I'VE are all agreed that there can be
no peace obtained by any kind of bar
gain or compromise with the govern
ments of the central powers. because
we have dealt with them already and
have seen them deal with other gov
ernments that were parties TO this
struggle, at Brest-Litovsk and Buchar-
est. They have convinced us that they
are without honor and do not intend
justice. They observe no covenants,
accept no principle but force and their
own interest"
Officials pointed out that the Pres
ident. in sending his query to Ger
many, was aware of the strong possl-
bility of Germany acceding ostensibly
to his fourteen points of the peace
agreement, but that she would dodge
the main issue as to who was going
to pledge Germany's name to such an
agreement. 1t was on this point that
he was looking for an opening to con-
vey to the German people finally and
unmistakably that their present gov
ernment. no matter who may wear the
crown or who may be chancellor. or
how many members of the Reichstag
are willing to stand sponsor for 1t, is
unacceptable to the United States
from the point OF view of trust
worthiness as long as the Hohenzol-
lerns continue to wear the German
crown and retain the power Of making
and unmaking cabinets.
London.-The London Dispatch SUM-
day declared in strong terms there
was no sincerity to the German an
swer to President Wilson's queries.
This newspaper also asserted that .
suggestion from President Wilson
would not stop the victorious assaults
on the German army. The Dispatch
declares:
The Hun is lying. He is being
kicked toward Germany and wants to
walk his own pace. Don't let us be
fooled. 1t is good they have accepted
President Wilson's fourteen points.
but the other allies also have some
points"

ATLANTIC CITY, N J., Dec. A. Four thousand men, representing v1r- tually every branch of business and industry in the country, assembled here today in a reconstruction con- gress. listened to messages on read justment problems, discussed by Sec retary of Commerce William c. Red field Charles M. Schwab, head of the Bethlehem Steel corporation and di- rector general of the emergency fleet corporation. and Harry A. Wheeler, president of the Chamber of Commerce of the United States.
 Mr. Wheeler, amid great applause, urged that American business should be represented at the peace confer ence in France MT. Schwab made an appeal for a great merchant marine to give outlet to surplus American pro ducts, and declared that labor should be permitted to organize in industrial plants and share in the prosperity of the country. Secretary Redfield said that no rash hands should be laid on wages; that the proper spirit of trade is not excessive profits but SerY1ce, and that the American business man should take into account moral values when dealing with his customers in all lands.
 
 There was some talk here tonight that a committee of American business and industrial men might be sent to Europe during the peace negotiations.
 Secretary Redfield prefaced his speech with the statement that his re- marks were not to be taken as an of ficial announcement. q am more and more impressed" said MT. Redfield, "in reading current discussions and re- flecting upon them with the truth that readjustment is very largely a state of mind-that it requires not so much a program of a fixed line of procedure, as an evolution. While we are discuss ing it, the process of readjustment is proceeding almost silently all about us.
 He made plea that a helpful hand be extended to the countries that suf- fered through the ruthlessness of the central powers.
 MT. Schwab's appeal for merchant marine struck a responsive chord. A great merchant marine is essential for the ultimate success of the United States. he said, and it's successful oper- ation is not for the benefit of any one man or class of men, or any one branch of business, but for the good of every citizen of the country.
 T do not care" he added, what plan may be best for the operation of these ships, so long as they are oper- ated economically, and so long as the expense of operation is borne by the whole people. No American shipping can be successful or enlist private cap- ital today, as shipping is now oper- ated."

RETURNING HEROES
 CHEER AS PASS SEA

NEW YORK, Dec. 4.-More than 5000 American soldiers, arriving here today from England on the transports Lapland and Minnekahda, shared as d part of their homecoming reception the tremendous ovation given Presi- dent Wilson as he sailed for France on the George Washington to help seal their victory at the peace table.
 The L-apland, bearing more. than 1000 officers and men, most of them aviators, came in just as the presi- dential ship was about to sail. Ttc Minnekahda, which came in a short time later, with 3,039 men aboard, passed the George Washington in the Narrows. On each occasion cheers for the president and cheers for the sol diers were blended as the ships passe
 The demonstration which attended the arrival of the Lapland and the dc parture of the George Washington had just begun to die away when the Min nekahda hove in sight, but its appear ance stirred the crowds gathered on the shores and the watercraft whistles into another tumultuous greeting.
 Soldiers Cheer Each Other
 As the Minnekahda neared her piei she passed ferryboat transporting the soldiers from the Lapland to Long Island City, where they were to en- train for Camp Mills, and the cheering of the soldiers broke out afresh.
 Secretary of War Baker, who had come to New York to witness the pres ident's departure, visited the Lapland as the troops were being debarked ana spent two hours chatting with tht men.
 The British ensign over the stern oi the Minnekahda was flying at half mast, in tribute to Walter L.

Republican A. P. Leased WireJ

WASHINGTON, Dec. A. Future plans of the American Red Cross, to be devoted to peace time relief work, not only in the United States but through out the world, were outlined in a state ment tonight by Henry P. Davison, chairman of the war council.
 MT. Davison. speaking to the 3,S54 chapters and 22,000,000 members of the mercy organization, said it is believed there need be no further campaigns for funds. Instead, the annual Christ mas roll call for members will consti- ute the foundation of the Red Cross.
 T am therefore able to speak with knowledge and assurance in saying that the benificent work of the Ameri- can Red Cross is to go forward on d great scale-not alone, as heretofore, for purposes of relief in war, but as an agency of peace and permanent human service,' said Mir. Davison's statement.
 Wherever our soldiers and sailors may be, the Red Cross will stay with them until they are demobiliZed. Noth- ing which we may do will be left un- done, either for the men in the war zone, for these returning, for those in the camps and hospitals, or for their families at home, to whom will con- tinue to be devoted the ministrations of the Red Cross home service. In this | latter effort fifty thousand trained Red Cross workers are engaged at 2,500 diff l ferent places throughout the land

AUSTRIA WANTS NO
 MORE WAR; JUSTLIFE

VIENNA, Tuesday, Dec. 3.-(By the Associated Press)-Dr. Franz Klein, former minister of justice, who will represent Austria at the peace confer ence. said to the correspondent today:
 If we are permitted to attend the conference, I presume it will be mere ly to receive it's mandates, though we trust we will be heard. However, so far we have no information as to when we shall attend or the conditions at tached to our attendance.
 o'1t is to be hoped that the confer ence will arrive at solution satisfac- tory to all the new republics Of the empire, so that we may be able to live peacefully in the future. We feel that the Americans surely Twill be fair It would be advisable for the allies to send here groups of statesmen and business men to look into conditions before trying to settle matters. Out siders might find a solution of the diff faculties which we ourselves have been unable to find.
 You may say that the Austrian government certainly wants no more wars, and has no ambition other than to live"
 Dr. Klein is considered one of the greatest jurists of the old empire. He is the compiler of the civil codes.

 WASHINGTON, Dec. 4.-Represen- tative Carter Glass of Virginia, chair man of the house banking and curren- cy committee, is understood to have been offered the post of secretary ot the treasury by President Wilson, and his nomination is expected to go to the senate immediately if he decides to accept.
 Members of the house said today that Mir. Glass reluctance to surrender the seat in congress to which he has just been reelected, after IS years of ser vice, was the only consideration hold ing up the appointment. MT. Glass him. self would not talk further than to say that he was not ready to make any statement.
 The understanding, both at the cap itol. and in official circles generally, IS that President Wilson had the nomina- ton prepared last night after a confer ence with MT. Galss. If Mir. Glass &C., cepts, it will go in, possibly after Sec retary Tumulty communicates by Wire less with the president aboard the transport George Washington, on his way to France.
 Secretary McAdoo's resignation as head of the treasury is to take effect upon the appointment of his successor. | He continues as director general of railroads until January l, or until q successor is named. The indications now are that a new director general will not be named immediately.

LONDON, Dec. 4.-This was nomi- nation day for candidates for pariia- ment in the coming general election, and among the surprises was the ap- pearance of an opponent of Premier Lloyd George, at Carnarvon, from which. district MT. Lloyd George holds his seat. He is Austin Harrison, editor of the English Review, who is stand ing on the plank of a league of nations and the abolition of conscription.
 Another striking feature of the nom- ination was the large number of un- opposed returns.
 Thus out of TOT members to be elect ed to the new parliament, 104 have al- ready been returned unopposed-41 coalition unionists; 2S coalition hb- erals; Il 1aborites; 22 Sin Feiners; one nationalist, and one independent.
 Among those elected are A. J. Bal four William Brace, parliamentary undersecretary to the home depart ment; John Robert Clynes, former food controller; J. Austin Chamberlain James William Lowther, speaker of the house of commons and William Crooks, laborite.

BERLIN, Tuesday, Dec. 3.-(By The Associated Press)-Dr Karl Liebknecht and his followers of the Spartacus group of socialists are carrying on . vigorous campaign against Premier Ebert and his colleagues whom the Spartacus socialists accuse of having induced the mortal enemy of the Ger man revolution, namely, international capitalism, represented by President Wilson, to make the delivery of food conditional on the maintenance of or der'
 The bolshevik organ. the Red Flag. says:
 This is treachery against the revo- lution. Any attempt to send food to Germany must be opposed as a capt talistic effort to beat bolshevik aims.'' The article demands the dismissal of officers and the choosing by soldiers of their leaders. It also demands the inn mediate arming of the revolutionary wsrkmen and the disarming of other organizations.
 The program includes the destruction of capitalism, the annulment of war loans and the socialization of all bus- mess.
 The government declares Liebkuecht has no followers outside Berlin. and only a few here. In interviews with the correspondent today, leading men of Berlin showed paSsimism over the situation, taking the ground that the government was not displaying the vigor and determination required 10 cope with the danger.
 The chief argument of the optimists is that the Germans are not Russians but they say that nothing can be safely predicated on the knowledge of Ger man character before the war. The spirit and pride o ia great bulk of peo- pie are utterly gone, they contend. and the situation is unfavorably affected by the belief that the food supplies in the cities will not avail until the new year, and that crushing peace terms twill be-imposed,

SAYS AMERICANS
 ARE BEHIND VILLA
Republican A. p. Leased WireI

JUAREZ, Mex, Dec. 4.-General Francisco Murguia established his temporary military headquarters here tonight, while pursuing Francisco Villa and his main command of 700 men. Villa is believed to be in the angle formed by the Mexican Central and Mexico Northwestern railroads. Gen. eral Murguia has 2000 troops with a number of field pieces and machine guns, which he plans to use against the Villa forces if he can overtake it in the Casa Grande district. En route from Villa Ahumada to the border today, the exploration train which preceded the three troop trains picked up F dynamite bombs which had been placed under the railroad track by Villas men, to wreck the troop trains.
 General Murguia confirmed the hanging of Luis Gameros and four other residents of Villa Ahumada Sun- day, by Villas men. He said there had been no fighting between his forces and those of Villa south of Juarez, but he expected to engage the Villa column somewhere near Casa Grandes. Villa has. his brother Hipolito Villa, Nicolas Fernandez and Martin Lopez with him, he said
 Villa is being aidefby agents on the American side,' General Murguia said tonight. These men are aiding the enemies of the established govern ment in Mexico to destroy American property and lives in Mexico, and they should be prevented from smuggling ammunition to Villa, to be used in kill ing Americans in Mexico"

 H0HENzO[LERN

AMERONGEN, Holland, Dec. 3. Tuesday-(By the associated Press)- q am a private citizen, and while in Holland will not make any statement whatever for publication"
 This was the former emperor's mes sage to the Associated Press corre- spondnt, when he called at Count von Bentick's castle again today.
 The German general acting as or derly, formerly governor of Metz, brought the message direct from Will liam HohenZollern, who last evening was inclined to make a public declara ton, but today changed his mind. The message continued:
 You must fully realize my position. I am threatened on all sides with crim- inal charges, if brought, | must face. Therefore, I must reserve any state ment until charges are actually brought.
 Also, I owe certain loyalty to the present German government and can not make a declaration which might compromise others"
 The correspondent requested the general to ask the former emperor whether he would confirm the crown princes assertion, regarding the Kru- ger telegram, and the general brought back the answer:
 "The crown prince is absolutely cor rect in his facts. The telegram, all ready written, was laid before me for signature.
 T refused to sign it for three days, but finally did so under pressure of the German displomates, and my polit- ical advisers, who advanced many req sons for sending the dispatch. Of course, having signed it.. take full re- sponsibility"
 The former emperor and empress are leading a very quiet life. Their table is of the simplest; in fact, they have submitted to regulations requir- ing them to be rationed for bread and butter and other edibles just as the ordinary country folk. Occasionally they walk in the surrounding woods but recently, days have been so wet that it has been almost impossible for them to go out, except for a carriage | drive.
 The 'krueger telegram" referred tc by the former emperor was sent by l him to "Ooom Paul'' Kruger, president of the Transvaal republic, on JanuarJ 3, 1896. It was the outcome of Ge. man flirtations with the Transvaal re- 
 public, during which the intentions o1 | Germany toward British influence 1T 1 South Africa caused deep concern. This Irritation" began in the earls nineties, and was brought to the no tice of the world by President Kruger in January, 1895, when, at banque' given in honor of Williams birthday at Pretoria, Kruger referred in glow ing terms to Germanys friendship fo the Transvaal, which, he said, ''woult in future be more firmly established l than ever"
 The historic Jameson raid' wa made late in the same year, and oI January ?, 1896, Jameson found him self surrounded by Boers at Doornkol and surrendered. The next day th' emperor's telegram was sent. It con gratulated Kruger that, without ap pealing to the help Of friendly powers, he had repelled the raiders. This ac caused much surprise in Englanc which called attention to the Londol convention, reserving the supervision of the foreign relations of the Trans vaal to Great Britain.
