Vienna Editor NelU
Foreign Minister;
Riot at Parliament

LONDON, Nov. 15.-Otto Bauer, edi-
tor Of the Vienna "Arbeiter Zeitung,"
has been appointed Austrian Foreign
Minister, according to a Vienna dis
patch to the Exchange Telegraph re
ceived by the way of Copenhagen.
A wireless dispatch from Budapest, by
way Of Berne, says that Count Ester
hazy, Count Szechenyi, Count Descffy
and Baron Vlassics have returned from
Eckartsau Castle, wnerc they conferred
with former Emperor Charles. The lat.
ter, they declared, has decided to re-
nouncc all participation in Austrian and
Hungarian affairs
The Hungarian National Council and
the two chambers Of Parliament, the
wireless message adds, will meet TO-
morrow to proclaim republic, dissolve
the two chambers and elect Count
Karolyi Governor Of Hungary. 1t is
also planned to proclaim universal, Sc
cret and equal suffrage for both men
and women. The message adds that all
these resolutions will become effective
Immediately, and that tomorrow will
be made holiday, enabling the popula-
sion to celebrate the event.
Socialists stormed the Austrian
Parliament Building in Vienna Wed
nesday and tried to enter the
chamber where the new State Coun.
Gil waa in session. Shots we're fired
before order could be restored and
twenty persons we're injured, according
TO dispatches reaching Paris. presi-
dent pinghofer denied that the firing
began from the Parliament Building.

DIPLOMATS Meet
In Paris to Shape
Peace Questions

PARIS, Nov. 15 (By The Associated
Press. .--Mectngs beginning to-day Of
representatives of the associated gov
ernments will be largely of an informal
nature. They will consist chiefly of
conferences of foreign ministers rather
than of prem,crs. with view to reach
ing a common understanding on in
ternational questions and definitely ar
ranging the programme Of the peace
congress.
One Of the first conferences was at
the residence of Colonel House, the
Foreign Minister Sonnino of Italy
spent some time. 1t was expected that
Foreign Minister Balfour of Great
Britain would arrive later
The newspapers to-day announced
that the Premiers and Foreign Minis
tcrs of the Entente were about to con-
Ter or had even begun to confer at
Paris and Versailles. This news seems
at present to be premature. Several
representatives Of the allied govern
ments, including Earl Curzon. member
of the British War Council, and Baron
Sonnino, the Italian Foreign Minister,
certainly had brief exchanges of views
in Paris with Premier Clemenceau and
Foreign Minister Pichon on the ques-
ton of peace negotiations, but Earl
! Curzon has already returned to Eng
! land and Baron Sonnino goes to Rome
/ Sunday for the opening of Parliament
Versailles, although not formally
chosen as the meeting place for the
peace negotiations, is regarded almost
as certain to be the place selected
for the peace conference when the
Inser-At!ied Council reassembles The
real work Of the negotiations will be
carried on in Paris, where it is prob
able that delegations from all the
countries will reside temporarily, the
| members going out to Versailles now
! and then for plenary sessions Of the
conference.
There is also little doubt that the
supreme act Of signing the peace agree
rent will take place at Versailles in
the historic hall where the German
Empire was proclaimed in 1871.
1t probably will be the end of No
vember before the discussion of the
prcliminaries can be opened. Until
then the Eentente chancelleries will
examine the method of work to be
adopted as we'll as the conditions to
be insisted upon.
It. is understood that several of the
Allies already have chosen their pleni-
petentiaries, and it would appear that
niost Of the meetings will take place
IN Paris, plenary meetings only being
held at Versailles. Dispatches have
announced that President Wilson will
come to France before mid-December
to be present at the peace conference
but this news has not been confirmed.

terms Of the armistice are for the Su-
preme War Council at Versailles to de-
eide upon.
The Allies, by agreement, it was
stated officially, could send e relief
expedition into Germany. Such an OK
pedition, besides carrying foodstufs,
clothing, shoes. etc., would probably
have to participate in the control Of
the German railways.
The question of relief for the Cen
trail Empires, and for Germany partic-
ularly, is understood to lie with Food
Director Hoover, who is expected to
arrive in Europe in few days He
will enter into negotiations immedi-
ately with the Allied food controls, and
also with the German representatives
According to the present plans there
will be no loss of time in giving eco
nomic relief to Germany. If the stu
alton is proved 20 be as desperate as
it is represented stocks OF fcodstutfs
clothing, shoes, medicines and other
commodities will be sent direct to Cor
many from Allied stores, which car
later be replaced BY the United States
It is thought that the first shipments
into Germany will take place withir
two weeks after Mr.. Hoover reaches
Europe. II Is regarded rs certain thai
the Allies will defer to his Judgment
which is held to be superior, owing t.
his organization and administration O.
Belgian relief and to his supervision
and control Of the food situation i,

active hostilities.

Some Washington Folk
Would Danish Him There
With Crown Prince
Stay Out of Germany
Entente Powers Said to Insist
No Hohenzollern Shall
Remain in Empire
(Spectal Dispatch to The 1rib''7'el

Especial Dispatch to The lrib't1e)
WASHINGTON, Nov. t5.-The best
sTailablc information here on the tate
Of the HohenzoNerns is that the En-
ten powers will insist that the Tor
mer German Emperor and the former
Crown Prince will be required to reside
at some point remote from Germany
and possibly that no son or brother
Of Count William Hohenzolcrn viii be
permitted to reaide in Germany.
There appears to be no disposition
on the part of the governments which
have been at WAT with Germany to ad-
minister any unusual punishment to
the former Kaiser or to Ahc former
Grown Prince, but that there is de-
termination to make it impossible Tor
them to carry on intrigues against the
tiemocritizaton Of Germany and to re-
cover the imperial power seems Ger
tain.
One proposal made to day in certain
circles was that the Entente powers and
the United States impose upon the two
arch -conspirators against clvlllzatlon
sentence of perpetual exile, to be exc
cuted on the island of He'goland,
which would be occupied by Entente
and American forces as police guards;
for the period of the natural lives OF
the former Emperor and his heir, at
whose death possession OF the lana
would revert to Germany.
1t was declared that, guarded ny
America, France, England and Italy,
the Hohenzollerns would be actually
as remote from Germany as if they
were at St. Helena, although at the
very gates of Germany, and that their
confinement to Helgoland would make
of them a spectacle for the contempla,,
tion of the whole world, while it would
not remove them SO far as to erect a
halo Of martyrdom over them, as
might be the case were they taken to
some remote corner Of the world.
There is declared to be precedent
and warrant for any treatment of the
Hohenzollerns which might be pre-
scribed by the Allies and for stipu-
lating in the treaty Of peace to be
signed by Germany a condition that
no male member of the Hohenzollern
dynasty shall be permitted to make
his residence in Germany.

tive calm and dignity. the Belgian CAPT
tai awaits the coming of the armies Of
liberation.
Sunday three delegates from the
"Rcpublic Of Hamburg" arrived at
Brussels. Standing on q balcony, the
military commander of the city ad-
dressed a crowd of 5000 soldiers and
civilians.
"Three million Germans have been
allied during the war" he said. "That
is sufficient. Let us have peace"
General Won Falkenhausen, the Ger
man Governor General of Belgium. re-
ceived the delegates and in the mean
time French and Belgian Socialists ad-
dressed the crowd. Then a sailor
nlmby climbed up to the balcony and
nailed red tablecloth to the railing
amid cheers.
After an interew of an hour with
the delegates, General Won Falken-
hausen reappeared and announced that
ne had resigned and had accepted the
delegates' terms. These were: First,
immediate peace; second, that teie.

WASHINGTON Without
Official Word as to
Purpose of Mission,

WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.--News that
an American military mission. headed
by Major General Charles r. Rhodes
commander Of the 42nd Rainbow divi-
sion at last reports, will visit German
Great Headquarters at Spa, Belgium
aroused much speculation here. So far
as could be learned no official informa-
tion as to the object of the trip had
reached Washington.
The purely military character Of
the mission was regarded as an indi-
cation that General Rhodes trip was
for the purpose of arranging with the
German High Command for the oceu-
patton Of various fortresses in Alsace-
Lorraine. which lie in front of the
American line.
