Council of Four Agrees on Means
for Bringing German Ruler
to Justice.
PLANS ARE WITHHELD
Decision on Saar Valley Leaves Sow
erelgnty Unchanged, but Allows
France to Obtain Coal With
out Paying Duty.

Paris, April 1.-THE council of
four reached an agreement on the
Saar valley. The agreement
leaves sovereignty over the valley
unchanged, but accords to France
free of duty sufficient coal for the
Lorraine iron industry and to re-
place the production of mines de-
stroyed in the Lens mining dis
trict, with the privilege to the
Germans of restoring the Lens
mines and thus relieving the Saar
valley of that charge.
This agreement removes one Of
the most difficult obstacles to the
conclusion of peace.
four has definitely determined upon tn,
responsibility of the former German
emperor for the war and the means
for bringing him to trial by one of thu
Allied governments, probably Belgium
This follows the definite decision OF
the terms of reparations for war dam
ages, whereby $4,000, 100000 must b,
paid within the next two years and al
interallied commission assess the re
naming damage for a period of 81
years, beginning May /, 1921.
Thus, two of the great obstacles
which stood in the path of the rapiC
attainment of peace have been re
moved and the period of extreme ten
sion over the failure to secure tangible
results is succeeded by revived con
fidence over the great advance made
toward a permanent settlement.

Probably some stipulated date will be fixed, and all the men who joined the service pre- vious tr that will be demobiliZed.

[ Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

NEW YORK. Jan. 2S-Reflecting postwar conditions in the steel and iron industries, directors of the United States Steel corporation today reduced the extra dividend on the common shades to one per cent quarterly, after declaring the regular dividends of 3I per cent on the IEeferred and l4 on common
 The rates of extra dividend in the previous quarter Was two per. cent and for the 1S months preceding that period extra quarterly dividends of three per cent had been disbursed.
 The quarterly statement issued in connection with the announcement cf the lower dividend offered ample ex- planation for the directors action. Total earnings. after deducting an es- innate Cf J0.000, 900 for liberal income and as excess profits taxes, were reduced to S36, ,354, l65; net income fell to $25, ,437,193 and surplus to $2,99I,255.
 These figures compare with total earnings of SAP. .961,5S9; net income of SS2. 2.l69.392 and surplus of $3.S4O,961, in the previous quarter, when $10l ,9Sl.54 | was set aside to meet government re- QuirementS.
 Earnings of the last quarter. after payment of war taxes and preferred dividends, equalled s2.S3 on the com on stock. against virtually S4 in the proceeding quarter, and $1.44 in the final quarter of 1917. Net earnings foI 1918 aggregated S19SS34.569 against $33l .66S1S1 in 1917, and $333, 625,0S6 ir 1916 Final surplus for 1918 totalled $40.3SI. .6S3. against S52,766,021 in 1917 and $20l. .955.749 at the close of 1916.
 Analysis for the last quarterly state ment shows a steady decline of earn ings from S14.405.S10 in october to $11.- 57S.5S9. in December.
 Federal appropriations for l9L amounted to the huge total of $214, 1 2sS.795. against $17S,602,249 chaged of i to the same account in 1917.
