Berlin, Jan 1S.-(By the Associated
Press. The whereabouts of the bruised
battered and bullet perforated body OF
Rosa Luxembourg, chief lieutenant Of the
late DIR Karl Liebknecht. leader Of the
Spartaean forces, continues to be the
most puzzling feature of the tragedy
which brot 70 a temporary halt all Spar

jump on the running board and fire the
fatal shot. after which other persons
rushed up. seized the body and disap-
peared.
The date Of the nterment of the body
of DIR. Iiebknecht has not yet been de-
cided upon. but it was stated, today, that
the dead Spartacan leader would not be
buried in Berlin. 1t is not unlikely that
any attempt to make his funeral the pre-
text for big demonstration would meet
with ZbPftSItltH ~ tAt ihtitdtF
government. which. for the present is
prohibiting street parades.
The city has been so completely gar
risoned with new troops as to discourage
the Spartaeans from attempting any
propaganda Mt this time. With the death
of the two leaders. the Red Flag also
disappeared from the list of Berlin's
revolutionary journals. It was foated in
the early weeks of the revolution by
I4iehkneeht and Rosa Luxembourg as the
official organ Of the German bolsheviki.
for which purpose Russian ruhles were
available in conspicuous prefusion.
The Red Flags editorial rooms have
been occupied by government troops
Herr Meyer and Herr Mareusseon. Co.
editors with Liebknecht and Rosa Lux

Die Freiheit. the organ Of the inde-
pendent socialists, appears to have as
sumed the editorial legacy bequeathed
by the Red Flag, as the newspaper seems
to have become the official mouthpiece
of the German bolsheviki.

Paris. Jan. 18.-The defeat Of
bolshevism at Berlin has en-
HANGED the prospects of rapid
progress in the peace conference,
as it has opened the way to sta
bilizing the German government
and will permit it to send respon-
sible delegates to the congress.
All questions at issue will,
however, be settled before the
enemy delegates arrive. The
supreme inner council, consist

five big powers will weave the
fabric of peace, present it to the
allied general conference, then,
when that has agreed to the pro-
posals, the Germans will be call
ed in to give formal assent to
the conditions imposed on them.
What part Russia is to play
in the drama is not known at
this time. The five big powers
are a unit in asserting that rep
resentation from Russia is an
impossibility at this moment.
The congress is considered to
be of one mind on the dominat-

Dublin. Jan. 1S.-(By The Associated
Press. 1-Sinn Fein officials announced,
today, that the meeting Of the Irish re-
publican parliament, next Tuesday. will
be open to the press and public on pre-
sentation of tickets obtainable at Sim
Fein headquarters. Representation will
be confined TO elected members of the
parliament, but the unsuccessful candi-
dates and men occupying government
positions will participate.
conference was held in Dublin
castle, today. at which the lord lieute-
nant, Niscount French. the lord chancci-
for, the commander Of the forces. the
attorney general and solicitor general
considered the situation.
Differences of opinion are believed to
exist as to whether it would be wiser
to ignore Tuesdays assembly and pro-
coed only against acts of intimidation
or violence or whether the assembly
should be suppressed as illegal. A major
ity of the people expect that the former
view will prevail.
Would Let Them Explode.
One side declares that the Sim
Feiners have an impractical policy and
will wear themselves out if left alone,
while If they are harassed they will re
tain the support Of the country.
Viscount French is said to lean to
the former view. 1t is said that he is
a home ruler, but will insist on obedience
to the law.
The government, however, it is re-
ported here. is about to issue q procla
nation, tightening the laws against the
Sim Feiners. Some months ago proc
lamation was issued under the crimes
act, declaring that the Sim Feiners
were dangerous. This was the necessary
preliminary step to the suppression of
the organization. but no subsequent step
has yet been taken.
Will Name Peace Delegates.
Once a proclamation suppressing the
Sim Feiners is issued. it becomes d
crime to belong to the organization, and
the government can prosecute any mem
ber and send him to Jail.
Thirty four Of the Sim Feiners elect
ed now are in imprisonment in England
and Ireland, while Patrick MacCarten,

Paris, Jan. 18-(By The Asso-

world are now centered, was
opened this afternoon in the
great Sale de la Paix. The pro-

to the election of Georges Glenn

permanent chairman of the con-

by the president of the French
republic, Raymond Poincare,

lied by expressions of lasting
friendship and the apparent de-
termination of the representa-

come to an amicable understand
ing with respect to the prob
lens to be decided by the con-
ference.
When President Poincare
spoke the entire assembly stood,
and the fact that, according to
custom, no applause greeted his
utterance, gave greater solem-
nifty to the scene.
