EPSON DREW TWO SALARIES
 AND CAMBLED THEM AWAY

. Charged with embezzlement of about s4,500 from the Remington Arms O., John D. Pysen. age 22, of Remington Company, appeared before the city court this morning.
 Pysen is alleged to have failed to remove the name of former guard of the company from the payroll and to have forged the mans name each payday when he would receive the ex-i guards pay envelope. This practice is alleged to have existed for the past IS months during which time Pysen. has been drawing two mems pay
 The discovery was made last week by auditors of the company who. noticed that there was one more name on the guards payroll than Robert M. Davies. foreman of guards. accounted for in his report. A watch was established at the pay window. yesterday. when the watchmen were receiving their money and Pysen was detected when receiving the money of the former employe.
 Pysen was taken to police head quarters where he acknowledged the embezzlement and said that only $50 remained of the anlcnnt alleged to have been fraudulently obtained. He further stated that since receiving both salaries he has gambled con siderably and that most of the money was lost at the Walters Club. i192 Main street, and the Center Cigar store on Elm street, which places were raided last night by the police. It has been known for some time that these places were unlawfulfy operat- ing gambling games
 The case against Pysen was con- tinued to May 20 and the accused was placed under bonds of $5,0O0.

PAPER
 APPROVES PACT
German Leader Decides Germany Must Say
 "No,'

Madrid, May 16-tHavas)-Appr val of the peace terms presented Ger many is voiced by the Diario Univer- sal the organ of former Premier Romanones the Spanish liberal lead CT. The paper declares that it would be unjust to accuse the Allied and Associated Powers of imperialism after the ravages suffered by France and Italy.
 Paris, May 16.-Eduard Bernstein. the German Socia1-Democrat leader. in an article in Vorwaerts of Berlin, transmitted here, says that the peace terms show evidence of compromises on several points and that sense of moderation is evident. He points out that many of the demands on ,Germany are only temporary in char acter, but declares that amelioration of some of the terms ought to be ob- tained through oral discussion Herr Bernstein reaches the conclusion that Germany must say "No" to the actual conditions, but this must not leave the road open for the Allies"

STRIKE
 AT WINNIPEG
Nearly 3O,OOO Workers Out Phone Operators Quit
 Today.

Winnipeg, May 16-Telephone op- orators in all the local exchanges joined the general strike here today. paraylzing all telephonic communica- ton.
 Perfect order so far has marked the general strike which today in- volved nearly 30,O00 workers in al- most every branch of the city's ac- tivity.
 With a strike of the metal and building trades on May 1 the walkout has gathered strength until nearly all the retail stores and plants are invited together with railroad shops and in some cases bakers.
 The general walkout began at Il o'clock yesterday and spread rapidly to all classes of workers. even clerks in the city hall and 269 post office employees quitting their places. Po- licemen remained on duty at the re- quest of the strike committee, but fire stations were manned entirely by vol unteers.
 Recognition of the unions and wage increases were first causes for refusal of the workers to consider arbita- ton, but several issues were injected ;by the returned soldiers organiza.- tions. At mass meeting last night of several thousand soldiers a. resolu- ton was adopted, providing that after settlement of the present trouble they would unite on discussion on depor- tation of undesirable enemy aliens.
 Formal approval of the strike by the returned soldiers was the over- shadowing development since the
 ,r.@ # ts understood that this action is being considered by government officials al Ottawa In some quarters it is ex pected that the next move in the sit uation might be made by the Federa government.

HOLD DEAN FOR S0LDIER'S DEATH Coroner Finds UrbanoWski Was Not Trying to Hit
 Accused.

Arthur Dean, who struck and fatally injured a discharged soldier named Edward Urbanowski, during a dis pute in a Railroad avenue saloon last week, was held criminally responsible for the soldiers death by a finding made today by Coroner Phelan> Dean is at present charged with man. slaughter and is out on s1,000 bonds.
 It was Deans own version of the trouble which caused him to be held by the coroner. Richard Lombard. owner of the saloon where the trouble occurred, and another witness, testi- fled that Urbanowski had his fists ex- tended and was about to hit Dean when the latter struck the fatal blow. When Dean told his story he said he was looking at Urbanowski and the latter did not have his hands extend ed but appeared as if he were about to attack him. The coroner thought this was the more probable story.
