Chancellor" TO
Make No Reply
(By Associated S"ress.1


Amsterdam. June 26.-There will
be no further discussion of Presi-
dent Wilson's four principles ofsa
basis for general peace by Count Won
Hertling. the imperial German chan
cellor. This announcement was made
by the chancellor in the reichstag in
the debate after the speech Of For
eign Secretary Won Kuehlann. Pro-
posals of a league of nations after
favor by Count Won Hertling, who in
timated that such a league might
make it uncomfortable for Germany.
The chancellor said he would not
go into the question of the respon-
sibility for. the war. There is al
ready testimony that Germany was
not to blame" he added.
Il feel obliged to clear away the
Misunderstanding which, it seems, we
obtained in the Interpretation Of the
second part of the state secretary's
statement" he continued. 1.-The ten
dency Of these utterances Of the state
secretary was purely to ascribe the
responsibility for the continuation
this terrible war to the enemy pow
ers, entirely in the sense l had indi-
Gated on February "a, for it goes
without saying there can be no ques-
ton Of lessening our energetic de-
Tense or our will or shaking our con-
fidence in victory"
Stormy applause followed this ut
terance by the chancellor.
Nov as before" he added, ''the
ruler of the empire, the princess and
the people stand closely and conf
IDENTIFY together. They trust in our
troops, our incompar-
able army leaders and our united
people which are unshakably stand
ing together and we may hope that
the Almighty. who hitherto has help
ed us and led us from victory to vic
tory, will reward this faithful Ger
man people,"

Tax Total Nearly
Three Billions
nv Associated PresaN


Washington. June 26.-The big
gest harvest Of taxes ever gathered
by the government was finished last
night with the expiration Of the time
for paying excess profits and income
assessments without added penalties
for delinquency. Estimates placed
the sum collected from these sources
at $2,775, 100000 and exact figures
probably will be known next Mon
day or Tuesday. Almost a half bill
lion came in yesterday from cor
porations and other big tax payers
who postponed payment as long as
possible.
Payments not made yesterday are
subject to penalties OF per cent,
with per cent a month interest.
Indications were that the aggregate
Of delinquent payments on returns
actually filed would not be large.
Hundreds OF small business and
professional men and other individ-
uals failed to file returns or to make
payments, however, and against
these an intensive campaign will be
,waged, starting in two or three
weeks. They will be required to
make belated reports Of incomes,
and to pay heavy penalties to avoid
prosecution as tax dodgers.

ANTHRACITE FOR
NORTHWEST Held
AT LAKE DOCKS

Minneapolis, June 26-Anthracitt
coal shipments from Duluth and Su,
perior docks to Minnesota, North
Dakota and South Dakota points are
temporarily stopped, under orders. o.
the fuel administrators from those
states, 1t became known today. The
embargo applies to most Of the dock
companies, but not to all.
The reason for 1t was explained
by Judge J. F. MCGEE, federal fuel
administrator for Minnesota, upon
his return from Washington.
Shipped to Own Customers.
THE order has been in force since
last Wednesday" said Judge MCGEE.
1T was made because the dock COM
panies were shipping anthracite coal
only to their own retail yards and
taking care of their own, customers.
THE embargo will hold until a
plan is worked out for an equitable
distribution OF the coal from the
docks to all dealers, according to the
amount OF orders they have on
hand This probably will be brought
about in few days.
''The order does not apply to two
or three OF the dock companies
which were shipping normally, sup
plydng independent dealers as well
as their own yards"
Movement Declared Satisfactory.
Judge MCGEE made the order I'M
der additional powers recently con-
ferred from Washington on state
i fuel administrators of the north
worked out, shipments to dealers
Will be made direct from the docks
as directed by Judge MCGEE.
Complaints had been made by in
dependent dealers Of the twin cities
that they could get no anthracite,
and the embargo order was issued
after O. conference in Minneapolis
Rast Wednesday, attended by the
fuel administrators Of the three
states.
Judge MCGEE said today that coal
is coming up the lakes in salts
factory way, and that the north
west will get it's allotment without
difficulty. That allotment, how
ever, is less than the supply receiv-
ed last year, and means that close
economies will have to be practised.
Dealers Complain of Margins.
Retail dealers of the twin cities
are complaining that margins now
allowed them are inadequate,
and Judge MCGEE was to meet with
them late today to confer on the
subject The meeting is specially to
consider margins on handling Illi-
mods coal.
Dealers claim that they cannot do
business on the margin of $2.35 a |
ton allowed them, and that Illinois
coal is not moving to this market |
They Also are asking for an increase |
in the 50 margin allowed them for |
handling anthracite.
