The situation in the influenza epi- demic in Phoenix remains unchanged. The number of new cases reported dur ing the past 24 hours was Il. If this report is complete, which the officials are not at all certain, that represents a small decrease from S7 on each of the two previous days.
 The total number of cases reported since october is S04. If this is the full number of cases, Phoenix is for tunate. but this represents only the greater number of the cases within the corporate limits.
 The total of cases in the emergency hospital last night was 66, of which eight were admitted yesterday. seven discharged as cured, and one died. At St. Joseph's, the emergency influenza ward contains 30 cases, of which seven were admitted yesterday, two dis charged, and one died.

the Hotel Bristol, one of the more
fashionable places, on Inter den Lin
den, was raided by order of the Ebert
Haase cabinet.
All exits of the hotel were guarded

The entire party is under detention.
Three hundred guns which were found
in an adjoining chamber were seized.
Count Matuschka, one of those alleg-
ed to have been involved in Fridays
disorders, has not yet been arrested.
The leaders In the attempt to ar
rest the executive committee Of the
soldiers and workmen'S council, it Is
announced, were William J. Martin
and two German officers named Won
Rheitbazher and Matuschka.
Martin, who is known locally as an
American, has been living in Berlin

the founder of the League of TRUTH"
Posing as an American, Martin, on
July 4, 1915, placed a wreath, within
which was an American flag bOrdered

the Great James w. Gerard, the
American ambassador compelled the
authorities to remove the wreath by
threatening to remove it himself if
his request was not complied with.
Later Martin was compelled to adj

allied himself with the German an
nexationists and proved a constant
source of embarrassm to the Ger

press him, but was blocked by his
pan-German military protectors.

1--WE in America have just celebrat-

that the friendship of Germany and
the United States was inaugurated by
Washington and Frederick the Great,
two of the ablest and wisest and most
far-seeing statesmen that any nations
have possessed in the history Of the

May the statesmen of our respec-

interested in the welfare of my own

81 am sure that the United States
will value in the future the consist

valued it in the past. and l think that
most Americans realize that Germany,
like France, represents in Europe a
political, social and economic progress
similar to our own.
americans from childhood have
been taught to regard both Germany
and France as their proven friends.
We therefore deeply deplere the war
between these great nations, which
have contributed So much to the
progress and civilization of the world,
and we earnestly desire to employ the
influence Of our country, not for the

that the surrendered German war
ships would be returned to Germany
after leace was signed that it points,
Of course, to Il complex misrepre-

"for it is certain that these ships will
never again fly the German ensign"
After discussing various proposals
for the disposal of the German war
ships, Mr. Hurd says that the only
course TO adopt is to distribute them
among the allies, in accordance with
the losses which each has suffered in
maintaining command of the sea. Ger
man submarines, on the other hand,

gests they be broken up and the parts
