In the morning I inquired of the
proprietor where the Great Army
Headquarters was and he told me it
was right around the corner. I told
him that I was to go there to meet
the Kaiser and he then informed me
that some officers in two motors had
been around looking for me half
an hour before.
They first went to the station TO
meet the els train, and when they
found you were not on that they
came here. but you weren't regis
tered and I didn't know you were
in the place and sent them away.
You can get in touch with them by
calling up number fifteen on the
telephone"
followed his suggestion and
quickly secured a connection with
the Kaiser's Garderobe. His secre-
tary said he would send right
around for me.
They came over in a big car.
and after picking up my baggage at
the station, drove me to the palace,
Sentries were posted at the palace
gates. but there Was no other sign
of military activity that I could OBJ

AS we drove through the beauti-
full park surrounding the palace
kept on the lookout for marching
troops and other evidences of the
bustling activity which I naturally
expected to find at the Great Army
Headquarters of the largest army in
the worlds history, but everything
was strangely calm and peaceful
and I concluded that they were
purposely keeping me out of the
busy section of headquarters.
When we arrived at the palace
was ushered through long marble
/ halls, the walls of which were COW
cred with antlers. to a very large
room on the ground floor. There
was a bright red carpet on the floor
and the furniture was in gold and
white of an antique French design
It overlooked a terrace and one OF
the most beautiful garden land
scapes I had ever seen. Lakes and
flowerbeds arranged in the most
artistic manner stretched as far as
the eye could see. Long tailed
golden pheasants were walking on
/ the lawn some distance away and
swans adorned the lakes. Away in
( the distance I saw two officers on
horseback cantering across the
lawn, but they were the only SOL
diers in the scene, and there was
absolutely nothing else TO indicate
that this picturesque estate in all
its peacefulness and quiet was never
theless the center about which the
whole world war revolved.
The Kaiser walked in unannounced

LABOR FIGHT IN X. C.
Unions Threaten General Strike Grow

Kansas City. Mo-. March 14.-Kan-

a showdown fight between labor and
the Kansas City Employers associa-

of the most important industries of

outgrowth of the strike of one thou

out for three weeks.
Delegates from the various unions
comprising the central labor organi-
cation will meet tonight at the labor
temple to consider the possibility of
general sympathetic strike against all
members of the Employers associa-
ton, as a result of the action of the
latter in rejecting overtures by FEEDER
al Mediator L. c. Steward to treat
with employees as a union and mediate
the strike.
The situation was aggravated by the
killing yesterday afternoon of William

four unidentified men, believed by po-
lice to be striking laundry drivers or
sympathizers as he sat in a laundry
wagon manned by a strike breaker

SWISS TALK NEUTRALITY
Not Seeking "Guarantee" but Demand
unconditional Recognition"

Berne, Tuesday March 1.-THE
Swiss federal council at a meeting
last night discussed a report on meas
ureS of neutrality which deal with the
recognition of Swiss neutrality by bel
ligerent powers. The report stated
that the declaration made by the
United States had been called for by
the federal council which had learned
of the presence of American troops on
the Swiss frontier. Switzerland it is
added, attaches the highest impor-
lance to it's neutrality being recog-
nized Internationally.
The Swiss mission to the United
States and it's fortunate results also
were mentioned in the report. Presi-
dent Calender said he was surprised
at the declaration concerning Swiss
neutrality made by the United States,
France and Great Britain. He said
the federal council. in its reply, had
formally protested, insisting that if
the neutrality of Switzerland was vio-
lated it would be the duty of Switzer-
land to defend, and such was the only
conception in conformity with Swiss
treaties.
1--WE refuse" said the president, ito

which guarantee our neutrality We
wish. in case of invasion, to freely con-
clude an alliance with them and if the
case arises to call to our help the pow
ers which signed treaties of 1913 and
1915. The three powers in question
have not replied to the answer of the
federal council.

that their declaration was not in

trality, and we are on the triendliest
