Zurich, May 12.-Count yon der

cussion among the former kaiser,
General Won ,Hindenburg, Minister
Won HNtze, Generals Won Plessen,
Groener and Marshall, Herr Won
Gruenau. of the foreign office, and
Major Niemann, Of the supreme
army command, leading up to the
kkaiser's abdication continues.
"A long discussion followed in
which General Groener again and
again reiterated his belief that it
was too late for any measure of that
so=t. They could no longer sue
coed, he said, since the revolution
lists were practically in possession
of all Germany and we'll organized.
In his opinion the rebels would un-
doubtedly stop the food supply of
the Army. In addition it should be
taken into reconsideration that the
army was no longer to be relied up
on, as all the army commanders had
testified when asked>for their can
did opinion by Colonel Heye, charg-
ed with taking this testimony by
the supreme army command.
! Army as Whole "Kaisertrue."
II combatted this conception most
vigorously and emphasized / could
state in behalf of all commanders
fand generals with the crown prnce's
army group that the army as a
whole was loyal to the kaiser. 1t
might not be loyal enough for again
taking up arms and fighting the
foreign foe, but it was loyal enough
to restore order in spots and to
march back home IN organized units
under the leadership of the kaiser.
"His majesty then asked Groener
what facts he had upon which he
based his opinion as to the senti-
ments of the army. He wanted to
know. whether Groener had asked
all the army, commanders and gen
erals. The kaiser mentioned that
Schulenburg had reported state OF
affairs at variance with what Groe-
ner claimed to be the true situation.
Groener replied he had TO differ
with me. "
AEIis majesty thereupon. very
sharply said: I command the field
marshal and you TO report in black
and white. on this subject. but only
after you have consulted all the high
army commanders
Kaiser Against Civil War.
"His majesty again made it plain
he did not want civil war under any
circumstances. He would never ex-
pect the army to entertain any such
proposition His only wish. he
said, was to lead the army as an
organized body home. To this
Groener replied: The army will
march back home, as an organized
body and under the leadership of
its regular commanders, hut not
under the leadership of your ma
jesty.' | again protest against this

Corn Reaches Highest
Point Of Season In
+, Sensational Bulge

Chicago, Map 12.-Sensational
new skyward flights by prices in
the corn market resulted today from
|meagerness Of readily available sup
plies and from prospects of further
wet weather delays to planting. /
Corn for spot delivery wanted to
fill May contracts went to the high
est prices so far on the present
crop, May soaring to $l.77 after
midday, an overnight rise of 8 cents
a bushel.
Corn reached its highest point of
the season and led to nearly con-
tinuous advance in deferred futures.
The close was Hurried, 51sc to 9hc
net higher, with July 1882 to
Sl.68A and September at $l.59h to
$1.5oM.
The general opinion around the
Omaha Grain exchange and the
commission houses is that Omahans
have neither made nor lost on the
advance of 10 cents a bushel in the
May option on corn. A week or
more. ago when corn commenced to
saw back~and forth at the rate of $
to e cents a bushel, Omaha dealers
are reported to have closed their
deals, being skeptical as to the fu-
ture. Consequently, yesterday when
the big bulge hit the May option,
Onahans were in the clear.
Relative to cash cornJ A consid-
cradle number of the Grain exchange
members are holding actual corn.
They bought at prices anywhere
from 20 to Is cents bushel be low
the present top and thus stand to
make big profit.
However, there are some of the
Omaha men who are inclined to
hang onto their corn. They are talk
ing 81 bushel and confidently ex-
pect to see this figure reached be-
fore the end of the month.

shame of having deserted its kaiser
in the field and in the face of the
enemy.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg
then spoke. Every Prussian army
officer was expected to share my
opinion he said, but reports re-
ceived from the front as we'll as
from home made it absolutely neces-
sdry that the kaiser should abdicate.
He and General Groener could no
longer guarantee the army's RELIABLE
ity His majesty concluded the dis
cussion in these words: N'You will
ask all my chief commanders as to
the sentiment in the army and when
they report to me that the army no
longer sticks to me then shall be
ready to CO. But no sooner
"During this time telephone
queries from Berlin asking whether
the kaiser had ,abdicated, If he had
not yet abdicated, and how soon he
was going to abdicate were chasing
one another. These queries came
from the chancellor's Office at Ber-
lin. They told of the dangerous stu
alton looming up at the capital and
finally peremptorily demanded i'm.
mediate abdication. The last one OF
these telephone communications
said there was street fighting in Ber-
lin, some of the troops had gone to
the rebels, the governor OF Berlin no
longer had any. troops that he could
trust and that the only means of
preventing bloodshed was the an
nouncement of the abdication. This
would be the only way of saving
the monarchy for the future.
Ready to Make Sacrifice.
"His majesty was deeply impress-
ed by this message. He seemed re-
solved to sacrifice his person in or
der to prevent civil war. | told him
if any abdication were really neces-
sary it could concern only the Ger
man emporer, but not the king Of
Prussia. The question of the abdica-
ton of the Ring of Prussia was a
matter to be taken up with the
Prussian House of Lords and the
Prussian Diet, but it was not a mat
ter to be taken up with and to be
defeated by the German empires
ministry and the German empire
Parliament. Prussian army officers
and the Prussian army would never
survive the loss of their king. | told
him. 1t was his duty, | said, to
remain at the head of the Prussian
army and never to desert it.
1T seemed to me the government
at Berlin was too much under the
influence of the local turmoil and
swayed too much by street fighting
close by. l had an idea the minis
tiers were asking for the kaiser's
abdication merely in order to pre-
vent their own sacred persons. ~
suggested the governor CT Berlin
be called up on the telephone and
asked about the situation. There
would be plenty of time to render
DECISION after the governor had
been heard from. His majesty as
sented to my proposition and added
he would continue as king of
Prussia under all circumstances and
near leave them. He then gave or
ders to have the governor of Berlin
called up and left for the garden
accompanied by his adjutant."

Paris, May l2-The' council Of
four at its meeting today decided
to refer the German notes on labor
and war prisoners Ito experts for
consideration instead of answering
them at once as it did with the first
two communications from the Ger
man delegation.
Count Won Brockdorff- Rantzau
who is the chief of the German
peace delegation, in addressing a
! note to Premier Clerlenceau relative
to the repatriation of prisoners asks
that the details of the transfer be
entrusted to commissions, that the
German foreign minister states that
the German peace delegation has
NOTED with satisfaction" that the
draft Of the treaty recognizes ip
principle the repatriation Of German
1 war and civilian prisoners with great
expedition.
The German delegation, it is
said, considers it indispensable that
those war and civil prisoners de-
tanned or undergoing punishment for
other than disciplinary offenses
should in principle be included
among those to be Internationally
repatriated.
Regarding war and civilian pri-
soners of allied and associated pow
ers in its hands," the note says,
Germany has recognized the same
principle. 1t appears self-evident to
the German delegation, therefore,
that on grounds of fairness, certain
alleviations in the treatment of pri-
soners should be agreed upon pend
ing their return"
