MONACO BLAMES
WAR ON KAISER
Prince, Once Good Friend of
Wilhelm, Says He Wished
for World War
BIZ Sfdn Correspondent.

LONDON, March i0-"There is no
doubt that the former German emper-
or was the first and responsible author
of the war. He absolutely wished for
IL. and conducted it himself in all it's
ruthlessness and barbarity." TINS Is a
statement attributed TO the Prince OF
Monaco by the Mails Paris corre-
spondent, who interviewed the Prince
there.
The correspondent recalls that the
Prince of Monaco formerly was a per-
sonal friend OF Emperor William. but
that friendship was severed by the
prince in a telegram sent to the for
mer emperor in September. 1914.
Until few years before the war"
the prince is quoted as saying, the
German emperor seemed to sincerely
wish peace and a renewal of inter-
course with France. / know this be-
cause / was entrusted with a mission
to try to bring il about. But at the
same time a terrible megalomania was
growing in him. He was anxious to
see Geramny over all and from the
day when he felt il impossible TO at
tain this end by peaceful means. war
became an obsession with him."

WILL NOT ALLOW
CARN|VALS HERE
Mayor Answers No to Numer-
GUS Pleas That Companies be-
Allowed to Show .

That the mayor will not tolerate
the exhibition of any out of-town car
nival company in this city. for any
cause whatsoever, was made plain
this morning when he said that he
had been pestered with any number
of appeals from fire companies and
other organizations that they be al
lowed to bring carnivals here to raise
funds for some purpose or other.
The mayor is unalterably opposed
to these exhibitions and said that he
would issue no permits for them
while he was In Office. His objection
is largely based on financial matters
as, he says, the carnivals appear here
for a week, take several thousands of
dollars out and leave but few hun
,dreds here.
The city executive has no objection
at all to local carnivals but when it
comes to the out-of-town concerns
exhibiting here, he has put the execu-
tive heel tight down and refuses to
listen to any such proposal.
Several fire companies, the City
Hospital and other organizations
have. in the past. brought these car
nivals here to raise funds for chari-
ties and benefits. Many of them wish
ed to again have a company come
here this year. The mayor says that
there are entirely too many calls on
the average citizens money to allow
of these concerns coming In the city
and taking away the money they do,
at the same time doing great financial
injury to merchants whose business
is considerably hurt by their appear
ance.

THINK MAN SOLD
BEER ON SUNDAY
Morqan Catches Man With Six
BottIeS--SaIoonkeeper is
Arrested Later On
An alleged violation of the edcise law

An alleged violation of the edcise law
was revealed yesterday when PATROL
man Morgen met NJ. Chubskin of Ogden
Place coming out of a saloon on AM
boy avenue with six bottles of beer.
The officer Immediately put Club
skin under arrest and brought him 20
police headquarters where he was
questioned as TO where he got the
liquor. The man would not give
the much information.
However, a warrant was sworn out
for Joseph Richnazik, a saloonkeeper

morning. Richnazik declared that
Chubskin had purchased the beer OF
Saturday night and having no ice box
of his own, had requested that he be
allowed TO leave the liquor in the ST.
loon ice box.
This permission was granted ac-
cording to Richnazik, and Chubskin
had just secured his beer from the ice
box in the saloon when officer Morgan

Chubskin that he had been able TO So
cure a drink in the saloon when he
went in for his beer and that several
other men were standing at the bar
drinking when he came in. This how
ever must be proved by witnesses and
the case was adjourned till next Mon

BRITISH MOULD
SINK SHARE Of
GERMAN SHIPS
France and Italy Could Keep
Their Shares, New Program
Outlined
By Associated Press.


PARIS, March 10:-A change in
the attitude of the British govern
ment regarding the plan to sink in
termed German warships has been
noted since the return of Premier
Lloyd George to Paris. 1t now ap-
pears probable that instead OF the
German craft being sunk Great Bri-
tain will be willing to permit Italy
and France to keep some of the ships
but will sink her own allotment.
In this way, 1t is said, Great Bril-
tain will relieve the United States of
the necessity of carrying out her pro-
jected great naval building program
which, IL is understood, was based on
the intention to prevent any one ma
ton from having such predomi-
nant navy as would give her control
of the seas against the powers of the
league of nations.
The addition of a limited number
of the German warshfps to the
French and italian navies would not
principally disturb the present bal
ance of naval power, excluding Aus
tria and Germany.
The desire of the American naval
experts that the German ships be
eliminated completely, 1t is said, is
based on consideration of economy as
they hold that II the German ns
are given to Great Britain In the pro-
portion proposed the United States
would be compelled to spend one bill
lion dollars to maintain her place in
the naval lists.

FATALLY HURT
BY ENGINE ON
LEH|CH R. R,
Dies of Injuries Received While
Walking Along Tracks Gate
man Not to Blame

Suffering from a fractured skull, q
broken leg, decorations about the face
and internal injuries sustained when
struck and knocked about fifty feet
by a train at the Washington street
grade crossing, Victor Sauyer, of
Chapman avenue, died this morning
shortly after o'clock at the city hos
pital, where he had been taken in the
police patrol Immediately after the ac-
cident occurred.
AS far as could be ascertained from
an investigation conducted by Coroner
James J. Flynn, Sauyer was walking
along the Lehigh Valley tracks on his
way to work in company with his
brother-in-law. As the two men ap-
preached the Washington street cross
ing they perceived that the gates were
down and waited for the train they
saw to pass by before they continued
on their way, but they did not notice
another train was coming from the
opposite direction. Accordingly when
the first train passed the crossing.
Sauyer stepped out on the Central
tracks directly in front of an oncom-
ing passenger train and before he
could leap out of danger he had been
struck with full force by the engine.
Roundsman Calvin, who was on the
scene of the accident, called the po-
lice patrol at once and had the man
removed to the hospital but he was so
badly hurt that he died about ten
minutes after arriving at the institu-
tion.
1t appears that the gateman at the
crossing is exonorated from any blame
in the accident for the gates were
down. - =
The train that struck Sawyer is Gem
trail Passenger train s31 due in this
city at 6:45. It was in charge of Con-
ductor III. Lewis and Engineer John
Costello.
