further move, possibly to test out
the sentiment of the allies on peace

Amsterdam, June 25.-Chief
blame for nstigating the war was
laid at Russia's door by DR.. Won
Kuehlmann, the German foreign
secretary. in an address to the reich
stag yesterday, in which he also
dealt with Germany's war aims.
France and England were named
as the next powers in order of cul-
pability.
Il believe" said DR.. Won Kuehl-
mann, that one can say without
fear of contradiction, as the result
of revelations, that the deeper we
go into the causes of this war the
nearer it becomes that the power
which planned and desired the war
was Russia that France played the
next worse role as instigator and
that England's policy has very
dark pages to show"
Referring to Germany's war aims,
DR.. Won Kuehlmann said:

Amsterdam today.
Referring to Germany's war aims,
DR.. Won Kuehlmann said:
"We wish for the German people |
and our allies a free, strong. inde-
pendent existence within the bounl
daries drawn for us by history. We
desire overseas possessions CORE
spending to our greatness and our
wealth. the freedom of the sea. car
rying our trade to all parts OF the
world"
Speaking in the relchstag yester-
day on the second reading of the
budget for the foreign office and
the chancellor, DR.. Richard Won
Kuehlman, the foreign secretary,
went into some questions of inn
oerial policy, referring first to Ger
nany's relations with her allies.
"In Austria Hungary" said DR..
Von Kuehlmann, that brilliant rep

Count Czernin. retired because OF

A WAGE INCREASE.

Director General McAdoo OF thf
American railroads has granted IN
advance in wages recommended by tn
commission OF inquiry which recent
ly made its report.
The increase affects all men in thu
service OF the roads but not to the OK
tent that the schedule would indicat
for the reason that many OF the men
had received increases in pay between
the date of the appointment OF q
commission and the present time.
One nice feature OF the advance
that the men will receive back pay
from the first Of the year and they
will get this money all in a lump Sta
tion agents. clerks. section men and
other employees will get on an average
about 800 In cash TO compensate ther
for the back increases they should

GAVE THEM ROUsING TIME.
Crystal Falls Was Packed With Peo.
pie Last Saturday.

Last Saturday was a gala day In
Crystal Falls. The occasion was the
departure of 1876 recruits from here
for Macon, Georgia. The outsiders
commenced to arrive early liz the fore
noon and all day they kept pouring
into town. Iron River. Stambaugh.
and Caspian came first and later on
people from Amasa and Alpha drifted
along TO swell the crowd.
Those in position to form an esti-
mate say that 1t was the largest
crowd that has ever assembled ir
Crystal Falls.
Four bands arrived at different
times during the day and were on
hand to escort the boys to the train.
The bands in line were: Stambaugh
band, Caspian band, Alpha band and
Mckinney Steel Co. band.
The recruits were mustered in
early In the forenoon and assigned
to places for meals. The Lockwood
hotel served number OF the boys.
but there were so many of them that
all OF the hotels got their share OF
the business
AT 500 o'clok all business places
were closed and the bands assembled
soon afterwards on the Lockwood
corner. AS soon as the boys were
through eating they were placed In
line and the procession was formed
with the Caspian band in the lead
The recruits, high school cadets, Nc
Kinney Steel band. visitors on foot
Alpha band, citizens generally and
the Alpha band followed and In the
rear were many automobiles. A
tail of the state mounted police led
the procession and made a fine show
ing.
Every available inch OF space about
the station was packed to the limit.
The relatives and friends of the de-
parting recruits stuck by them un-
I'll the last and as the train pulled
out a lone trombone player stood on
the rear platform, and in tones that
were distinctly heard above the music
OF the bands and the shouting multi
tude, played "over There" until the
train passed from sight at the curve
below the railroad crossing. He was
an accomplished performer, and the
way he brought out the notes OF tha,
stirring air will linger in the memory
OF those who were present for many
a day.

FITTINGLY OBSERVED.
Memorial Day Saw Crystal Falls In
Patriotic Spirit.

Crystal Falls has been a Stacker in
the past In observing Memorial Day.
IL the outpouring of last Thursday
forenoon is any indication, 1t will be
SO no more for the largest turnout
OF purely Crystal Falls adults and
children was witnessed that day that
has been seen In the city during its
history.
To Prof Hill must be given the ma
jor portion of credit for this excellent
demonstration, for he planned II and
kept pounding at IL with determina-
ton that brought results. George +.
voos was marshal OF the day
The main feature OF the procession
was the great number OF school child
rem who turned out. A continuous
line OF children reaching from the
upper railroad crossing TO the court
house stretched up Superior avenue,
the little ones carrying flags and
marching four abreast
The procession was preceded by the
w. II. c. in automobiles followed by
our old and honored veteran, Meade
LaPlant carrying the flag.
Next came the high school cadets,
and after them the school children
The grade teachers marched with their
children and some OF the smaller
ones were turned back at the bridge,
the distance to the cemetery being too
great for them.
Then came the lodges, among them
the K OF p, the Eagles, Lady Macca-
bees and the Italian society. A large
delegation of Red Cross nurses added
color and interest 10 the procession.
Citizens on foot followed and de-
tail headed by f. ]. Oswald and M. f
Richards combed the walks as the
procession moved along, insisting that
every man march-and they marched
At the cemetery the graves of the
veterans were decorated and exer-
cises held commemorative OF our fal-
len heroes.
The principal address was given by
Rev. Ernst, rector of the MenomineC
Episcopal church.
