Washington, Dec. l1.-Formallty of reading and considering of minor and unopposed amendments to the war revenue bill was reached in the senate today sooner than expected be- cause senators preparing addresses were not ready to proceed.

AMICAbLE SETTLEMENT
 0F CHILE-PERU CASUS
 BELL SOUGHT BY POLK

Washington, Dec. l1.-Acting secre- tary of state Polk today announced that all South American countries have been asked by the United States to join in it's suggestion to Chile ana Peru that the interests of Pan-Amer- ican unity and an amicable settlement of their controversy over the provinces of Tacna and Africa.
 Secretary Polk made it clear that the American government was not offering, its good office to compose the trouble between the two South Amer ican republics, but at the same time let it be known that if such good of- fees were requested they would be extended promtply. This information was conveyed to all the South Amer ican republics with the suggestion that each make similar representations to both Chile and Peru.
 While the main endeavor now is to end the present strained relations De- tween Chile and Peru, it was said at the department that the occasion may arise for a final settlement of the dls- mite by the carrying out of the pro visions of the treaty of Ancon. signed in 1883, by the two republics. and call. ing for a plebiscite in the disputed 1 nrovinces to determine their disposi- tion.
 l The American government was
 ranresented as being particularly de- sirious that conditions in the westerr
 hemisphere be settled during the meet
 ing of the peace conference at Paris.

PRESIDENT
 EXPECTED
 TO EXPLAIN
Address of Wilson to Amer ican Troops Anticipated by Allies to Clear Up Points.

Paris, Dec. 1.-The address which President Wilson will make to the American troops, probably as soon after his arrival in France as pos sibla, is expected to be one of the most important delivered during his stay in Europe, and is being looked forward to by Europeans, who hope to gain from it more definite idea of the presidents exact position re- garding numerous vital points. It is considered undoubtedly that the pres ident will make this speech at the American front, but at what place has not yet been determined.
 The president, is is announced, will visit devastated districts in France, and, although the present plans are tentative all depending up- on his personal wishes, the trip may take him Into former German terri- tory. Visits to Metz. and Strassburg are extremely probable.
 President Wilson, will lunch witt, President Poincare. on Saturday soon after his arrival. The plans for Sum day have not yet been made. Monday, President Wilson will hold recep- tion in the Paris city hall, to which host of officials have been invited.
 The Associated Press is in a po- sition to state definitely that Presi- dent Wilson will visit Italy, but date has been fixed. A hundred invita- tions or more for the president to vis- it various places in France and the allied countries are being received daily. Naturally these are being held pending the coming of Frances distinguished guest. It is considered l hardly likely that the president will attend great number of functions in Paris. as he will unquestionablN need all the time possible to attend to the urgent business which bring him to Europe.

GOVERNOR IBROUGh
 SPEAKS FOR THE
 NEW CONSTITUTION
Advocates Its Ratification at the Elec- tion Next Saturday and Predicts Large Majority.

Pine Bluff was Host yestel day to Arkansas chief exe&ptive, Gov. chas H. Brough, who came here to address the voters of Jefferson county in the interest of the proposed constitution, which will be submitted to the voters of the state next Saturday for their ratification or rejection.
 The governor reached Pine Bluff yesterday afternoon, just previous to the announced hour of his address, coming here from Star City in com pany with Judge Lucas, in the lat ters car, having addressed the people in that city in the forenoon.
 A goodly crowd had gathered in front of the court house ill expect ancy of the ogvernor's arrival, among which were many from outlying con- munities, as was evidenced by the large number of cars lining Main street within that vicinity.
 Gov. Brough was introduced by Hon. T, M. Hooker in few appropriate re- marks-few, because the people were there to hear their governor elucidate the provisions of the proposed organic laws of the State of Arkansas, who heartily applauded the governor when he arose on Mir Hooker's presen- tatiOn.
 The speaker took up the proposed constitution under it's several sub- divisions, and pointed out the bene- ficial results of their application He was speaking in the open, and as the air had perceptible shill some l hoarseness was apparent But his re- marks were convincing, and doubtless many saw the proposition from diff ferent angle atfer hearing the address in which he explained the many ad- vantages of the document which the people will either ratify or reject as the organic jaws of the state next ] Saturday.
 i The quadriennial elections, instead of the biennial, as at present he point ed out would save much vexation ant expense to the tax payers of the state and the placing of legislators upon al annual salary of $1,000 for the foul years, as especially advantageous, in asmuch as legislators will go to tn, state capitol and transact the business which is entrusted to them, and tn, salary will perhaps induce men O larger parts to become law makers O the state.
 But these were only few of thu meritorious points brought out by thu governor who was given the cloes attention throughout his address.
 After the address at the court hous' l he was conveyed to the Cotton Bel shops where he addressed a goo' gathering of railroad men, after whicl he and Judge Lucas were guests o Hon. A. H. Rowell at a six O'clock din ner at the Hotel Pines.
 Accompanying Judge Lucas Cover nor Brough left after supper in tn formers car for Little Rock, durin both of his addresses the governo predicted the ratification of the con stitution next Saturday by a majorit of 35,O00 or 10000.

C0NSCR|PT AN EMERGENCY MEASURE ONLY

London, Dec. 11-Premier Lloyd George said today that the war had cost Great Britain the gigantic sum of $S 1000, 0,O00,OCO pounds and added: We propose to demand whole cost of the war from Germany {, Bristol, Dec. 11.-(By The Asso- ciated Press. .)-The war bill of the allies against Germany is 24,OOO,O ,OOO,- 900, according to the British prime minister David Lloyd George, who presented this and other Interesting facts before large gathering here to- day. The cost of the war to Great Brit tain was S,0OO,OO0,O00.
 Before the war the estimated wealth of Germany, said the premier, was be- tween 15,O00,0 100000 and 25,OOO,OOO,- 900. So if the whole wealth of Ger many were taken there would not be enough to pay the account Therefore, he had used the words:
 Germany should pay to the utmost limit of her capacity"

 A voice interrupted:
 "Then watch Wilson" the premier replied: well, I hope to meet him in a fortnight. I will tell him what you say
 wherever the request comes from we are not going to give up the pro lection of the navy. so far as Great Britain is concerned"
 i London, Dec. 11-Premier Lloy( George, speaking today at Bristol, sai( the English military service act wa: passed in crder to meet great em ergency When that emergency wal passed the need was past and thu act would lapse. He added there was no intention to renew it. Wheth CT Great Britain would require con scription in the future ill any shape or form, Mr. Lloyd George said, de pended not upon the opinion whicl he now expected, but upon the peace terms which were made. Ccntinuin, the Prime Minister said:
 What drove us to conscriptiol
 was the existence of conscript ar
 mics on the continent that inevit 1 dDly ruSn6U Luc WOIlu IAlO Wdl. hC could not have great military ma , chimes there without tempting tn
 men at the head of them to try thei
 luck with those machines. The Ger mans always felt there was nothin } to resist their perfect military ma
 chimes.
 'If you want permanent peace ; if you want to prevent the horror of this war being repeated, yo must put an end to conscript armie on the continent of Europe. ,, '"The first thing to do is to proven ! the repetition of blunders of tn past by making it impossible to hay those great conscript armies in tn
 future.

H0HENzOLLFRN
 IS ENTITLED 10 SANCTUARY
William While the Unbid- ren and UnWelcome Guest and Extradition Must Pass Test of Law.

The Hague, Dec. 1.-The former German emperor is entitled to the right of sanctuary in Holland and, therefore his return to Germany can not be demanded, according to a statement made today by Jonkher Beerenbruck, in the lower chamber of parliament during a debate on the visit of the former emperor to Holland. The premier said the government would have preferred that the former emperor had not chosen Holland as a refuge but that he came as a private , individual after renouncing his throne without direct or indirect notification of his intended arrival.
 After renunciatiOn of his throne Jonkher Beerenbruck continued, there could not be a question of internment nor could the former emperOr's re- turn to Germany be demanded in view of the immemorial tradition of right of sanctuary. The Netherlands govern ment could adopt no line of conduct but that of granting "the right of sanctuary" and accepting it as a fact accomplished.
 The government, the premier con-
 
 see in this step an unneutral attitude. Nevertheless, he said, the once em- , peror's stay in Holland was only re- garded as temporary. Up to the pres ent, no power had protested against his visit, but any eventual demand for extradition must pass the test of law cf treaty. The government, the premier concluded, would not allow the former emperor to exercise any influence in another country.
 William Hohenzollern crossed the Dutch frontier from Germany Novem- Der 1Oth His formally issued notice of abdication was made and executed and signed by his own hand with the imperial seal at Amerongen, November i2Sth." Amerongep is in Holland and, therefore, the former emperor had been in that country nineteen days when he formally laid down the sceptre and relinquished the throne.

on board the Deutschland German
submarine cruiser, from the tOrpe-
doed American army cargo ship Ticon-

Harwich by the U-boat, was wounded
severely In the thigh when the Ticon'

Harwich correspondent of the Daily

was picked up by the U-boat. Lieut..
Miller was taken aboard by the same
boat, but Lieut.. Fulcher did not learn
Of his presence until days after.
''They gave me q drink Of brandy
and questioned me about American
troops and other things" said Lieut..
Fulchor in an interview. II was then
taken to the forepeak, where had to
sleep with not less than IS German
sailors, who lived in this dungeon. The
first bath had was when rain sQuall
hit the submarine while was on deck.
''On the eighth day Of my captivity

was captured and sunk after her pro-
