KING AND THE

lContlnud from Page One.)
 T drink to the health of the presi- dent of the United States and Mrs. Wilson and to the happiness and pros perity of the great American nation.
 The President Replies
 Replying to the kings address, Pres ident Wilson said:
 'I am deeply complimented by the gracious words which you have ut tered The welcome which you have given me and Mrs. Wilson has been so warm, so natural so evidently from the heart, that we have been more than pleased. We have been touched by it. and l believe that l correctly interpret that welcome as embodying not only your own generous spirit toward us personally but also as expressing for yourself and the great nation over which you preside that same feeling for my people, for the people of the United States.
 For you and l, sir-I temporarily embody the spirit of two great nations. and whatever strength 1 have, and whatever authority, possess it only so long and so far as l express the spirit and purpose of the American people.
 Every influence that the American people have over the affairs of the world is measured by their sympathy with the aspiration of free men every where.
 America Loves Freedom
 America does love freedom. and 1 believe that she loves freedom unsel- fishly. But if she does not she will

protection against the yellow races. Even this year President Wilson and England have used diplomatic lan- guage. They understand also that there is nothing to do with Germany than to accept her as she is
 After thus quoting the emperor's language. Prince Albert adds:
 You afterward talked at length to convince me you had no bad sentiment toward France or toward anyone, and you remarked to me that you might have fallen upon Russia when she was ruined by her war with Japan. and upon France when 100000 French sol diers were in hospitals. When I an swered you that Frances pacific in tentions were shown by the tendency to reduce her military forces, you had nothing more to say"
 The prince then relates sensational conversation in which the emperor, pointing to a British squadron visiting kiel. foresaw the coming of war.
 "The transformation of your mental : ity became evident to me in June. 1914 when upon the deck of the Hohenzol- Tern 1t Kiel you said to me with irrita- tion as you saw the English squadron come to salute you: If you oblige me to make war, the world will see what

not and cannot help the influence to which she justly aspires.
 T have had the privilege, sir, of con- ferring with the leaders of your own government and with the spokeSmen Of the governments of France and Italy, and l am glad to say that l have the same conceptions that they have ot the significance and scope of the duty on which We have met.
 We have used great words: all of us have used the great words Right and Justice, and now we are to prove whether or not we understand these words and how they are to be applied to the particular settlements which must conclude this war.
 And we must not only understand them, but we must have the courage to act upon our understanding.
 Yet after I have uttered the word Courage it comes into my mind that it would take more courage to resist the great moral tide now running in the world than to yield to it and to obey 1t.
 Man Conscious of Brotherhood
 There is a great tide running in the hearts of men. The hearts of men have never beaten so singularly in unison before Men have never before
  Men have never before realized how lit 1 tie difference there was between right and justice in one latitude and in an other, under one sovereignty and under another.
 And it will be our high privileges, I believe sir. not only to apply the moral judgment of the world to the | particular settlements which we shall attempt, but also to organize the moral force of the world to preserve these settlements, to steady the forces of mankind and to make the right and | justice to which great nations like our own have devoted themselves. the pre- dominant and controlling force of the world.
 There is something inspiring ir | knowing that this is the errand thai we have come on. Nothing less than this would have justified me in leaY- ing the important tasks which fal upon me on the other side of the sea nothing but the consciousness thai nothing else compares with this ir dignity and importance.
 Therefore it is the more delightful to find myself in the company of s body of men united in ideal and pur- pose and to feel that 1 am privileged to unite my thoughts with yours 1T carrying forward these standard: which we are so proud to hold so higf and to defend.
 May I not. sir with feeling of pro found sincerity and friendship ant sympathy propose your health and tho helath of the queen and the prosperity ! of Great Britain"

STATUS OF RUSSIA
 REMAINS IN DOUBT

WASHINGTON, Dec. 21.-Officials of the American government here ex- pressed the belief today that Stephen Pichon, the French foreign minister. was voicing his own opinion and not the policy of the French government when he said there would be no imme- diate intervention in Russia by the al lied governments.
 The Russian situation has been the subject of earnest discussion by the representatives at Paris of the associ- ated nations but so far as is known here none of the governments has put forward any definite plans. The un- derstanding here is that the whole suD- Ject will be left to the peace confer ence.
 Additional reports of the chaotic conditions in bolshevik controlled Flu ropean Russia reached the state de- partment today One account said the loyal militia of Esthonia and Livonia, poorly equipped and with little or no training. was in no condition 10 with stand the attacks of the bolsheviki. Some of the bolshevik forces in this section were said to be well supplied with machine guns, tanks and armored cars.
 Riga, Reval and L.embach were re- ported as crowded with refugees from the surrounding country. Advices reaching the state depart ment today from Bucharest said the main force of the bolshevik army in Russia consisted of 500,00O Russian soldiers, forced to join the bolshevik because of fear of starvation; former Austro Hungarian prisoners of war, 50,000 men from the Balkan provinces and 10000 Chinese workmen.
 The Russian embassy received a re- port today from the minister of foreign affairs of the Russian government at Omsk that Siberian troops commanded by General Pepeliaeff, captured the city of Perm, December 24. More than 5000 bolsheviki were taken pyis- oners during the days fighting, the message said

COPPER COMPANIES SUE

BOSTON. Dec. 27.-Suits were be- gun in the federal court here today by fifteen copper mining companies to re- cover total of s3S4, 900 which it is claimed the government illegally as sessed as income taxes betWen the years 1913 and 1915
 The suits are the results of differ ences between the government and of ficers of the corporations as to what IS capital and what is income as ap- piled to copper mines. It is understood that the principle involved will affect far larger sums which the government collected for last year and the year be- fore.
 The largest amount sought in the suits is sl25,000 by the Calumet and Hecla Mining company of this city. Others include the Champion Copper company, Allouez Mining company. St. Mary's Mineral Land company, Cop per Range company, Assignee Baltic Mining company, Ahmeek Mining com pany, Copper Range Copper company.

his attitude toward The Hague tri- bunal.
 Talking with the crown prince at his Kreuth residence in Bavaria, 1 complimented you on offering to settle the Casa Blanca affair before The Hague tribunal. The heir to the throne answered that the chancellor had made a mistake in accepting that arrange ment because, said the crown prince, the French are right in that affair, but a powerful state should never avoid war, even when it is in the wrong, un- der penalty of losing it's prestige
 In another talk with Emperor Will jam, the prince says the emperor re- marked that he held the Russian eZaF in his hands. In this connection Prince Albert writes:
 Tn the series of crimes for which Germany must bear responsibility, there is one which will revolt humanity for all times Nicholas II. was incapa- ble of lying or betraying his allies. He wished to perform his duties, not agree | ing with yoJr wishes. although yOp' told me you held him in your hands. Nicholas eluded your suggestions. but was assassinated by your bolshevlk accomplces without your intervening to save him."
