Sent 3O.-Private Edward +. Baker,
of Pittsburgh. Pa. is one OF the rev
Americana who claims to have been
prjsoner in Germany and then es-
capcd back to the lines of his com
rades. Here is an outline, of the ste
nv told by Baker when he came into
Flames late one night soon after the
Americans took possession OF that
Town. Early one morning there had
been street lighting in Fismes and III
tbo encounter several Germans got
the drop on Baker and marched MIN
locE to their lines. u
Before noon the Germans had BAKER
woI ';inC n trenches. and they kept
min digging in ono place or another
MOTT of the afternoon without az much
m even suggesting that he might
want something to eat. Late in the
afternoon the Americans stated an
,u1ok. preceding it with heavy bar
arc from the art lie:y, Naturally THIS
caused quite a commotion among the
Germans Oh the hills north OF fls-
mes.
When the German guarding Baker
turned his head in the direction OF the
whiz of an American shell Baker seiz'
ed stick of wood and struck the
Guard blow on the head, and then
ran into nearby wood, toward the
Americans. None of the Germans fol
lowed him, although several soldiers
fred with their rifles as he disappear
ed in the brush.
Baker reached his companions that
night just eighteen hours after he
had bee taken prisoner. and he had
had nothing to eat all day.

Henry Veeder. personal secretary of j.
Ogden Armour:
Complaints filed with the federal

Veeder questioned by Special Inves-
tgator Twombley when he discovered
this letter, is believed to have named
the official responsible for the leak
Careful internal grooming of the en-
tire commission staff was expected to
discover just how far "slush funds
may have seeped through into the per-

Hearings in the packing house probe
were to be continued early today with
further sensational developments in

Additional evidence tending to prove
the existence Of a gigantic buying ma.

Private correspondence, memoranda

IBy j. w. T. Mason, Written for the
United Press.]
NEW YORK, Jan. 2S.-Reports Of
disturbances among the German work
ing men in the Rhenish industrial dis
tricts are very significant of the in
creasingly serious labor situation in
the central empires.
The Rhenish province is the seat of
Germany's iron and steel industries.
It is where the principal munitions for
the German army are manufactured.
The working men at these places have
been treated with unusual considera-
tion by the German government dur
ing the war Not only have their
wages been raised, but special food
concessions have been given them
and every effort has been made to
keep their efficiency up to the high
est level.
The only reasons for such disturb
anceS would be an inability on the
part Of the government, because of
food shortage, to continue giving the
munitions workers preferential treat
ment, and the development of a de-
spairing spirit of war WEAKNESS, cou-
pied with resentment against the
militarists' manner of conducting
peace negotiations.
The only influence Herr Scheide-
mann, DIR. Ebert and other critics OF
Hertlings imperialistic policy can
exert on the government is through
the response of Germany's socialistic
workmen to these critics. If the gov
ernment feared no response, it is a
safe assumption that the socialists
critics, of the kaiser's peace spokes
man would now be in Jail.
Only last week, however, a Berlin
newspaper was suspended for suggest
ing that the socialist leaders be sub
jected to court martial proceedings
This unprecedented consideration fol
the feelings of the socialists must be
due to uneasiness in government cir
cles as to what the socialists might de
next.
