WITH THE FRENCH ARMIES, jan
uary a2.-Details continue to come out
ooncsrning the Kuehlmann-Ludendor
crisis in Germany. DR.. Won kuehlmann
desired to seize the occasion to make
. general peace, evacuate courland.
Poland and Lithuania and make buffer
states out Of them. with the expecta-
tion that later they would become Ger
man protectorates. He also wished to
evaeuats Belgium and France and
reach an understanding with England.
November at Potsdan a conference
took place in which DR.. Won huehl-
mann and Count Won Czernin agreed to
make Charles I the King or poiand ana d
Grand Duke Of Lithuania. Gen. Luden-
dor6 and the military party opposed
making o general peace. and especially
eyacustfng Poland, Lithuania and
Courland. where they desired rectiflca-
tiona Of the frontier. They were in
favor OF annexing Belgium and tho
TSsir disagreement caused Chancellor
Won Hertiing to visit the general head
quarters December IS. Here Gen. Luden-
dorR argued against. an attempt, to
make . general peace now. He said that
4 separste Russian peace would give
Germany an opportunity to win a vic
tory on the western front. Apparently
he refused to take the responsibility OF
making an offensive on the western
front unless Germany intended to retain
Belgium and part of France. He also
criticised DR.. Won Kuehlmann's Russian
policy on the ground that Courland and
Iithuania would object to becomins
German protectorates, with the result
that in the end Germany would not
even secure the frontier rectifications
which he considered necessary.

AIMS AT PROF|TEER|NG
THROUGHOUT COUNTRY
Senator Thomas Proposed Bill Not
to Apply Alone to the
District.

When Senator Thomas of Colorado
drafts his bill to prevent proflteering
by merchants and landlords, about
which he has twice spoken in the SEN
ate, 1t will not apply to the District OF
Columbia alone, but to the entire coun-
try.
Senator Thomas said today he was
convinced that profiteering exists all
over the country. and that Army and
Navy of!!eers were the particular mark
for the profteers. He has received a
letter describing tho exorbitant prices
for all kinds Of supplies charged to men
in uniform in San Antonio, Tex. Accord
ing to this letter. 1t is the custom to
add from 50 to 100 per cent to prices
when the purchaser is in uniform.
Would Protect Private Citizens.
The profteering. however. is by nc
means confined to the sales to men in
uniform, he said. and the private citi-
sens need protection as well as the
nnen In the service In a sense, Sena-
tor Thomas said. he felt that he had
not been quite just to the District OF
Columbia In singing it out, when he
originally announced his intention OF
drafting q bill against prohteering
since such practices existed in other
places. He has received many letters
from different parts of the country
since his announcement, complaining
Of the exorbitant prices charged.

march. Three years ago he went to
Martindale, Montana, and was em-
ployed on ranch. His brother, Amos,
went to that place and accompanied
the remains to Princeton.
He is survived by his mother, Mrs.
Ellen Howard, Princeton; three sis
tiers, Mrs. D. II. Cooper and Mrs. "A.
D. Herkel, Of Minneapolis; Mrs. R.
M. Pope, Mora; and three brothers,
Amos Howard, Minneapolis; Alfonso

Methodist church on Sunday after
noon, Rev. Jas. a. Geer conducting
the solemnities. Special musical num-
bers were contributed by quartet
consisting Of Grover Umbehocker, T..
S. Briggs, Miss Ethel Hoflander and
Mrs. Cullen. Mrs. Ewing was the
pianist.
Isl" Howard, as he was known to
his Princeton friends, was good
hearted young man he would take off
his shirt and give it to a man who
he considered needed it worse than
himself. He was not blessed with a
superabundance Of this worlds goods,
but what he had anyone in distress
was welcome to. We regret that 'sSi''

To the Editor Of the Dispatch.
The death Of Senator Robert C.
Dunn will bring a sense Of deep per-
sonal loss to thousands Of people
throughout our state, for no individual
who has lived in Minnesota ever had
q larger number Of close personal
friends than he, and few men have
ever had SO large a personal following,
for his friends were 50 bound to him
that they idolized him and gave to him
a devotion and an affection that was
beautiful, sincere and abiding. =
The time has not come as yet to do
full justice to his value as pub
lie servant. Some day, when the
rancors Of politics have passed, he
will receive due credit for the high
service he rendered to this state. I
think it is conceded by all who
know, that Mr. Dunn knew more
about our state affairs than any
man living in his time. He was q
remarkable public servant, . real
leader, and finely equipped man for
the highest duties Of state service.
He is already looked upon, and just
", as the Father Of Good Roads In
Minnesota. Some day he will be rec
ognized as far-sighted builder for
the common good.
But il is his personal q.lalitie which
endeared him to his friends, and it is
asa friend that + want to pay tribute
to him now. No man can win friends
as he did without being human, kindly
and noble. No man ever had q.
warmer, larger heart; no man ever
gave to his friends AR ere sincere
love, = deeper gratitudg 81 Robert
