EX-E]MPER0R IS
WORRIED OVER
REAL ESTATE
Discusses Financial Matters
With Man Who Con-
y.
trolled Estate.

Amerongen, June 14-(Corre-
spondence of The Associated Press.)
The former German emperor has
been discussing his financial prob
lens for more than week with Doc
tor ]. Kriege, who has been in charge
of the imperial estates and funds in
Germany since the Hohenzollern alb
dication. ..
DR.. Kriege. one of the former Ger
man functionaries of the German
foreign office, has been here in con-
ference with Herr Hohenzollern when
the latter was not engaged in wood
saving. The marshal of the German
emperors court. Won Gontard, also
participated in the discussions.
The former emperor is not short of
money. as he possessed considerable
amount on deposit in Holland before
war began. This was added to ap-
preciably while hostilities were in
progress. During the few stirring
weeks preceding his abdication, Will
liam and his followers transferred
further large sums in ready cash.
But William is troubled as to the
fate of his real estate. He possessed
no fewer than fifty-fve castles. hunt
ing boxes and country seats scattered
over the empire. The revenues Of

ernment, which hitherto has paid
from their proceeds all Herr Hohen-
zollern's bills, forwarded to Berlin for
settlement. These accounts have

aiming at giving harsh but deserved
lesson to profiteers.~ 1t was right that
the people should punish those who
made millions through the suffering
of the entire population which for
over four years strained every nerve
in the face of greatest struggle of its
history. With pitiiess energy, how
ever. as its leniency heretofore. the
government now intends to repress

Florence has been occupied by mil
itary forces and the machine guns of
the troops. 1t has been shown the
mobs and robbers, were not taken
there merely for show. The same
thing has happened at other most re-
behious centers, especially. at Ancona
and Brescia where many persons were
wounded.
In general where the uprising
against the cost of living took most
orderly form, the people imposed
reduction in all prices, watched the
carrying out of this order and pre-
vented any violence against shop
keepers. They intervened whenever
attempts were made to ransack shops.

with much greater energy than the
police ever used. At Milan the peo-
pie presented an ultimatum demand
ing that the prices Of all necessities be
materially reduced by Thursday.
A mob ransacked nearly all the
shoe shops at Palermo, the troops be-

we are all brothers and all are

From all towns where disorders
have occurred the same report is
coming. A week ago everything could
be bought at high prices but now the
shops are closed, goods are lacking
and nothing can be found. Entire
families are in despair of finding
something to eat

CENSORSHIP
IS DISCUSSED
Communications With Ger
many May Not be Cen
sored by Allies.

Paris, July Removal of the cen
sorship on communications with Ger
many was on the program for discus
sion at the session of the Allied coun-
Gil this afternoon. It is understood
that the supreme economic council
has recommended that the censorship
be lifted co-incident with the raising
of the blockade.
Discussions with the Germans Of
terms of the peace treaty regarding
reparations has been postponed until
Thursday, the German representative
having failed to arrive.
The committee of admirals appoint
ed to consider the disposition of the
remaining German warships reported
to the council that no recommenda-
tions are possible until certain mat
ters of policy have been decided.
The probability. seems to be that
the whole question will be finally re-
ferred to the governments of the va
rious powers concerned.

mulated war legislation. dictated pol

befriended "big business" were made
today by Chairman Graham of the

A "Secret Government
Mr.. Graham declared the president
created the 'secret government by
ignoring and reversing the intent Of
congress in authorizing the establish
ment of council of national defense
in August. 1915. AS authorized by
congress- he said, the council was to
be composed of six members of the
cabinet. who were to be the real ex-
,ecutives and seven civilians to be Sc
lected by the president. who we're to
act in a purely advisory capacity. In
stead of doing this Mr.. Graham as
serted, the president made the advis-
clothing them with unprecedented
and almost illimitable powers"
Behind closed doors, weeks and
even months before war was declared, "
he said. these seven men designed al
most every war measure which con-
gress subsequently enacted. They
devised the entire system of purchas-
ing war supplies, planned press cen-
sorship, designed system of food
as director, and even determining on
the daylight savings scheme.
Conceived within the law but
brought into existence in absolute
violation of law. it is not surprising
to find this secret government Of the
United States itself persistently ig-

which is contained in the indictment
on which the two Nonpartisan Lea
guers are being tried.
Give 1t Much THOUGHT.
IT have given this matter consid-
erable thought" Judge Dean said.
There have been many cases brought
before me under this section of the
state law. The Indictment charges
the defendants with conspiracy to vio-
late section 4s3 Of the laws OF Mime
sofa. The defendants may never have
violated the law and still be guilty.
1t is the conspiracy to do it that is
charged as part of the crime. Any
thing uttered for discouraging enlist

am inclined to think it is sufficient
evidence to submit this case to the
jury on the question Of conspiracy"
