artillery preparation and the swift
ness of the operation. the American
casualties were light.

AMERICANS FELT
SPIRIT OF WAR
Mission Returns From Abroad
Saw War Activities
of England

New York. = Members of the
American mission. which for more
than month studied social and In
dustrial conditions in the British
Isles, have arrived in New York and
speak in high terms of the unfalter-
ing spirit of the British people of all
classes to see the war through. In
their stay, in which they managed to
squeeze in a ten-day trip to Franco
and the fighting front, the members
or the mission were accorded un-
usual privileges. in order to see and
study British life.
They had an hours informal chat
with King George and Queen Mary;
spent another hour with LLOYD
George at 10 Downing street: talked
With workingmen and their families
IN the East End after a German air
rald; saw tanks in the making; in
spected factories where aeropianes
were oeing turned out; visited the
British grand fleet, and talked with
sailors and officers of the American
meet IN British waters. Some of the
ieIioers or the party went to Ire
iand and discussed industrial and
social conditions in that land of
storm and stress. Others, particu-
larly the labor union members OF
the party, who were accredited by
the American Federation of Labor.
had conferences with British labor
leaders.
Perhaps one of the most sig
nincant reports which members of
the mission brought back was that
the American soldier who went to
france, bearing no particular feeling
or animosity against the Germans,
was, now as hateful of the boche as
the Australians and the Canadians.
They met two battalions of American
troops who were marching to their
rest billets after the first real test OF
American arms at Seicheprey, and
heard what these men had to say.
The American soldiers who are now
in the tighting,> said one member of
the mission, were imbuel with a
spirit which boded ill for the enemy.

FORMER PREMIER IL ACCUSED OF
PLANNING ARRESTS OF PROM
TNENT COUNTRYMEN.

Rome, Jan. 16 wednesday, The
Giornale dltalia continues to publish de-
tails Of the documents found in the safe
deposit box in a Florence bank which
had been rented by former Premier Gail
lauX. one of the documents is in the
former premier's handwriting, and gives
a sketch OF proposed political program
if he should again be called to become
premier Of France
1t gives the names of senators, depu-
ties and generals who would be called
to collaborate in ministry. Caiuaux,
the document shows, according to the
newspaper, would begin by arresting
President Poincare and all the recent
political leaders. including former Pre-.
mier BRAND. Caillaux would appoint
General Sarrail commander.iu-chief of
the French army, and would bring to
Paris two Corsican regiments he cen.
sidered friendly to him.
Tho chamber of deputies, the Giornalc
dltalia says, would be compelled to ap
prove a bill giving Cailiaux absolute
power, and he then would dissolve the
senate and chamber, and France would
make n great effort to obtain military
success, after which u popular relercn
dunn on a peace treaty would be taken
A new regime, the document shows
would be instituted in France limiting
the powers of the senate and chamber

1t is assumed in London that the hur-
red meetings of military and political
leaders in Berlin did not result in any
definite change Of peace policy. In some
quarters in Germany, it is believed the
crown councils had more to do with
plans for military operations On the
western front. German newspapers

ANOTHER MENACE
RISES IN RUSSIA
SOCIAL REVOLUTIONISTS HATE
BOLSHEVIKI AS THEY HATE
FORMER GAR.
AND CLASH MAY COME
Facts Leading Up to Reasons for Ar.
rest of Runianian Minister at PetrO-
grad by Trotzliy's Cohorts Come to
Light-German Intrigue, Probably.

London, Jan. 1.-THE version Of the
incident that resulted in the arrest Of
Rumanian Minister Diamandi given by
the Petrograd correspondent Of the
Daily News says that Rumarian troops
surrounded u Russian regiment togeth-
er with some Austrians who We're visit
ing the Russians, thus breaking the CON
dltions Of the urmustics on the eastern
front. The Rumanians stopped the Rus
sian supplies, disarmed the Russian sol
dlers and arrested the regimental com
mander.
The whole incident, the correspondent
says suggests German intrigue, because
nothing would suit the Germans better
than an excuse to break with Russia
over breach Of the armistice instead
Of over an important point in the peace
negotiations.
1t is insisted by the correspondent
that tho visit Of the allied and neutral
diplomats to Premier Lenine constitutes
a de facto recognition OF the bolshevil
government.
Nj. Rudnev, mayor Of Moscow and
leader of the SOCIAL revolutiouists, i'm.
vited foreign journalists to meet him
Tuesday for the purpose Of securing
support for his party. The conversa-
tons at the meeting, the correspondent
OF the Daily News says confirmed his
view that more is to be feared than
gained from a replacement Of the boil
shevili by the social revolutionists.
The social revolutionists, Mayor Red
nov said, control a majority of the con.
stituent assembly, and would, if the as
sembly meets Immediately, appeal ia
the allies for an interallied conference
with view to opening negotiations for
an immediate democratic peace. The
speeches of President Wilson and Pre-
mler Lloyd George could be the starting
points, and a speedy answer to the ap
peal would be desirable, as delay would
mean the ruin Of the social revolution
lists and serious risk for the allies.
Asked whether if the bolshevild re
tain power and wage a holy war against
Germany, the social revoluuonists woulc
support it, Mayor Rudnev is reported tc
have replied:
We regard the bolshevik power as a
mirage. In the case you mention we
would act toward the bolshevil govern
ment as we acted toward the czar.'
