lures of the past twelve months.
The feature picture for Saturday is
a patriotic production, "The Gown Of
Destiny" with Alma Reubens as the
star. While in no sense war picture,
it has number Of intensely interest
ing scenes, particularly one showing
the allies going "Over the top" and
capturing German trench, with a
most realistic showing OF scenes in
mo Mans Land" Two acts of vaude-
vile will be included in Saturdays

ated by really worth while produc

ed in accordance with our instructions
Nos Al, as and 40, coal dealers may be
permitted to make further deliveries up

Inclusive of coal heretofore delivered)
of the reasonable requirements for the

ance with the instructions above referred

ADMITS GERMAN BLAME.
For Being Too Ambitious and for Bring
ing America Into the War.

London, Nov. 80 british Wireless
Service) Fuller reports of the state
mcnt published by DIR. Won Bethmann-
Hollweg, the former imperial chancellor,
in the North German Gazette, show that
although he attempts various arguments
in excuse for his share in German guilt
for the war he makes the following
confession:
"But above all, we must confess that
by our deficiencies OF national character
and by the sins of our general behavior
we have contributed to the warlike ten
sion which filed the air for the last
few years. Words which might be taken
as proyocation were repeatedly uttered.
The Pan-German activities at home and
abroad have done us the greatest harm,
but above all our naval policy brought
us the most fatal opposition
The answer to Won Bethmann Hol-
weg's general apologies may be found in
the Berlin Tageblatt, which IN taking
the former chancellor to task, says:
CDR. Won Bethmann- Hollweg men
toned neither the German British nego-
tiations, which already were concluded
in July, 1914, nor Sir Edward Gray's
then British foreign secretary very
reasonable and acceptable proposal for
mediation. Why did the German gov
ernment reject this proposals The ex-
chancellor states himself that the Aus
trian ultimatum was too sharp, but in
that case what objection could the Ger
man government raise against Sir Ed
ward Gray's proposalY If Won Beth
mann felt himself that wrong was com
mitted against Belgium he had no right
TO submit. and if he was not able to
carry his point, he ought to have re-
signed"

DIRE THREAT AGAINST AUSTRIA
Made By Ludendorff When Austria

foreign department there assert that in
1917 whom Count Czernin, then Austro-
Hungarian foreign minister, sought, by
Emperor Charles order, TO induce En-
peror William to conclude peace, he was
referred to supreme headquarters.
When Count Czernin pointed out that
Austria was exhausted and might be
compelled to make separate peace, Gen.
Ludendorff, striking the table, ex-
claimed.
"The same day that Austria concludes
a separate peace, it will receive dec
laration Of war from Germany. That
viii be our only answer to such a
breach
Count Czernin thereupon returned to
Vienna and told the emperor that moth
ing could be done, as Austria's fate was
indissolubly knitted with that of Ger.
