u. S. SECRET SERVICE
STOPS KAISER PLOT
Agents Uncover Attempt to Restore
Prussian Autocracy.

American Headquarters in Germany,
Feb. IA plot to line up sympathy
in Germany behind the former Kaiser
has been unearthed by the American
military secret service, it was an
nounced today.
A number of supporters of the old
regime we're discovered circulating
petitions. ASSURING Wilhelm that his
people still maintain confidence in
him. Many signatures had been OBJ
tained in various parts of the region
occupied by the third army. The
American authorities are investigat-
ing to determine who is back of the
movement. which apparently is wide
spread and probably originated in
Berlin.
American military officials have as
certained that the present strength
of the German army shows that the
organization and staff of all pre-war
regiments is being maintained, except
those of Alsace and Lorraine, al
though some of these regiments have
been reduced to a thousand men.

on the bill of Representative SiegeI,
which seeks practically the same re-
forms.
An impetus to early passage of Tie
reform bills was given yesterday when
George T. Page, of Peoria, Ill, pres
ident of the American Bar Associa-
tion. called on Secretary of War
Baker.
Those who predict that the radical
revision of the court-martiaI laws
will be enacted without delay say
that the new system will con.
tain substantially these elements
whether or not in the language oil
the Chamberlain or Siegel bills.
First: There must be in the
Judge Advocate Generals Office al
Washington someone to say whether
such or such allegations are of such
! character that the accused ought
to be brought to trail. This will
save time and money and prevent
the personal equation of insistenct
and persecution.
Second: Not only should officer.
be competently informed on the
questions but the army officer who
is judge advocate of the court
martial should not act merely al
| prosecutor, but should have tht
powers and discrimination OF tn,
judge of a criminal court at al

admissibility and application of any
testimony.
Third: That when a competent
court finds a soldier or officer moi
guilty that must be final. The court
must not be catechized by non-legal
officers and new trials sought

Efforts to hasten the consideration

The bill has been reported unani-

Unless 1t is aided by a special rule
that will permit its immediate con-

EXPECT CHANGE
IN ARMY LAWS
War Department Officials
Say System of Courts Mar
tial Must Go.

The whole of the antiqusted law
system of the War Department with
reference to court martial procedure
is bound to go, in the opinion of OFF,
Gals within the department itself.
They do not hesitate to say that the
Chamberlain bill in the Senate which
proposes to correct the system, pre-
vent errors and preclude sentences not
based on common sense and common
la,!, will pass Congress with a rush.
The officials who take this view say
that whatever be the chara cter of the
differences between Gen. March, chief
of staff. and Judge Advocate General
Crowder. those should not have and
will not have any effect on the deter
mination TO change the laws in the
interest of the soldier or officer who
comes up for court martial in time of
peace or war. 1t was stated yester-
day that there will be hearings very

CYCLOPS WENT DOWN
IN GALE, SAYS NAVY
Department Unable to Find Trace
of Lost Vessel.

Lost in a gale" was the fate of the
CyclOps. from which nothing has been
heard since January 4. 1918, the Navy
Department has decided.
Prior to the armistice navy officials
entertained the alternative theories
that the vessel might have been either
sunk by a U-boat. then operating in
West Indian waters, or captured and
taken to a German port.
Since the signing of the aTnistice
inquiries have been made in Germany,
but no record of the vessel having
been encountered by German war
ship was found. and naval officials
have finally accepted the conclusion
that the Cyclops was caught in a gale,
that her cargo, manganese, shifted,
sending the vessel down with all OF
board ana without leaving a trace.

SAYS AMERICA
DEFENDED SELF
Senator Hale Declares Ma.
jority Of People Don't
Accept Wilson Ideals.

The United States went to war be-
cause it was believed the country was
in danger, not to carry out the Ideals
Of President Wilson, declared Senator
Hale, OF Maine, in a speech in the
Senate yesterday. He demanded the
immediate conclusion of peace, return
Of the American soldiers and a return
to pre-war conditions.
Senator Hale called for a show
down" as to whether or not the ma
uOn entered the war for the purposes
proclaimed by the President. IF the
President is right" he said, then let
US make a peace that is in conform
ity with such humanitarian purposes
and i'm the future let us govern our
actions toward the. rest of the world
in the spirit of sacrifice that these
high and extremely unselfsh purposes
demand"
Concerning the Presidents ideals,
Senator Hale declared he did not be-
lleve the majority of the people either
understood them or accepted them.
The wonderful catch words and
phrases of the President caught the
ear of the people. but did not, catch
their understanding" he continued
That they were binding themselves to
an irrevOCablc policy as a national
venture to say never occurred to any
but the Presidents closest advisors.
The American people will moi
stand for any plan that in any way
affects or commits them to any pol
icy of internatiOnalizing their SOW.
ereignty as a nation. The American
people are for America first, and they
have no desire nor intention to wan
der very far from the faith and tbs
teachings Of their fathers"
Senator Moses. of New Hampshire
drew a parallel between the present
Peace Conference and the Congress al
Vienna after the fall of Napoleon
1t that congress. he said. there wa
the same sort of declaration as OBJ.
tains now, but when the confer,
enCe was ended there was no con.
federation OF Europe by which the
sovereignty of any peoples had beer
surrendered"
Senator Moses said he had no fear,
respecting the Versailles Conferenc;
and no doubt that the outcome o.
the conferences now going on il
the Hall of Mirrors will be any diff.
ferent in their ultimate results from
those which took place a century
ago.
