Why the Pretty Duchess Marie Left Home

H HE rcvolutionists in Luxembourg,
temporarily lulled into inactivity
- by the entrance Of the American
Army Of Occupation into the
capital last November and by the sight
Of the young Grand Duchess Marie, re-
viewing her troops from the balcony Of
her palace with General Pershing at her
side, broke loose again last week Lux
cmburg was proclaimed republic and
the young ruler, whose abdication was
demanded, left the city for nearby
chateau.
ON the mean time" says "The New
York Sum
"the Luxembourg government issued
proclamation saying that it had decided to
seek 'an economic alliance with Entente
Powers, especially France and Bclgium;
that d revolution would prove an Obstacle

der the conditions would be TO reserve fur
thcr action until the voice Of the people Of
Luxembourg is freely expressed through lc-
gal channels.'"
Latcr dispatches added to the romance
o. lNe niue duchyS career by alleging
that the republic had only lasted six
hours, and that the French military
authorities had restored order. The
'Journal dos Dcbats" reported that the
revolutionary faction had decided to send
an Official delegation to Paris entrusted

German papers give vivid accounts of
the first bloody encounter between gov
eminent troops and Spartacdes, which
occurred in tho Chausseestrasse on the
afternoon Of Friday, December 6.
Says the ~Vossische Zeitung":
The S9artacides held meetings at three
different halls yesterday afternoon. At
each one the btterest arraignments Of the
Soldiers Council and the government were
made. Toward the end of the meeting in
the Germaniasaal some one rushed I'D to
the platform and shouted into the crowd

"it took the Argentine President a ]onp

"Nominally an Independent state since
1890, Luxembourg was scarcely more than n
German province before the war. During
the war Germans ignored Luxcmburgs ncu-
trality and territorial rights and occuped
the grand duchy. The Kaiser and his Off
GERS were in complete control Of the little
grand duchy, which formerly formed part Of
Holland
"SIncc the armisticc Luxemburgs internal
affairs have been much troubled 1t has
been reported several times that the Grand
Duchess was about to abdicatc. A crowd
gathered before the palace last Friday and
demanded her abdication with the proclama-
ton Of republic AS the first step to that
end a committee Of public safety was
formed to maintain order"
According to ''The New York Times":
Most Of the inhabitants Of the grand
duchy were either sympathizers with France
and Belgium, or neutrals at the beginning
Of the war, and dissatisfaction with the
German occupation undoubtedly grew as the
years passed by and the Germans behaved
pretty much as they have always behaved
in occupied territory. The Luxemburgcois
did not like the prospect of being swallowed
up in the German Empire and they inter
prctcd the Grand Duchcsss behavior, after
her first protest against the German entry,
as dictated too much by memories of the
time when her dominion was part Of the
German Confederation. The last straw was
the Grand Uuchcss's consent, whether volun-
tary or cnforccd to the bctrotfal Of one Of
her sisters TO Crown Prince Rupprccht'

is a telegram which she is said to have sent
to the former German Emperor declaring
that she prayed every day that your army
may be successful and bring back to Ger
many heavy harvest of laurel
Had this been the sentiment of the peo-
pie of Luxembourg, or had the war ended
differently, the contents of this telegram
would, perhaps, never have been disclosed
But the LuXemburgers were opposed to the
German dominance exercised over the Lux
emburg court, and they resented the hard
ships which the German military occupancy
of four years had caused Some one found
this telegram and other evidences of friend
illness to Germany, such as congratulations
10 the German Crown Prince and the ar
rangement of marriage between the third
sister and the odious Prince Rupprecht of
Bavaria, and laid them before the Luxem-
burg Parliament The effect was to advance
the already incipient revolutionary move
ment INTO an actual menace to the govern
ment and the regning dynasty"
Luxembourg is one of the smallest in
dependent states in the world. The little
duchy very nearly precipitated the
Franco-German War three years earlier
than it occurred, and it was then de-
clared a neutral state by conference
of the great powers in London in May,

The election falls in troublous times, and

The mobs were particularly vicious in

nOLSHENISM broke out in an
- entirely new place last week.
49, While the world was Watching
the spread of the red terror" through
Russia and Germany, there VAS an in
c;oient outbreak Of the disease in far
off South America, the attack being
especially virulent in Buenos Ayres, the
capital Of Argentina.
Fighting took place in Buenos Ayres,
in Montevideo, in Uruguay; in Lima, in
Peru. and in other cities. A report re-
eeved in Washington said that 500 were
dead in the Argentine capital alone as
a result of the fighting there and that
1900 wounded persons had applied at
hospitals for medical care.
The outbreak of Bolshevism in South
America appears to be due to and in
tensely related to the similar epidemic
in Europe. The ringleaders here in
almost every instance proved to be Rus
slams Two thousand arrests have been
made in Buenos Ayres, and of these so
per cent are Russians. Only 10 per
cent of the whole number arc native
Argentinians. Nearly 200 of the pris-
oners are Spanish anarchists who took
part in the uprising in Barcelonisa in
1909, as a result of which Professor
Francisco Ferrer was put to death by
the Spanish government These Span
ish anarchists, we are told fled to
Buenos Ayres at that time and devoted
themselves to an effort to tear down
the government that afforded them
refuge.
The same is true of the Russians.
Nearly all of them, it is said, admitted
freely that they were fugitives from
Russia or had been before the days of
the "red terror" and that it was their
purpose to overthrow the governments
of Argentina and Uruguay and set up
q Soviet government there. The Monte
video police uncovered this end of the
plot, capturing a large number of the
ringleaders. Four of them made con-
fession and revealed the plans for over
throwing the governments of Uruguay
and Argentina. These plans were under
the direction of "Cultural Centre" of
which Isaac Moinotf, Russian, is the
head Molnoff is said to have been con-
cerned in bomb throwing outrage in
Colon, after which he fled to Monte
video.
Among those arrested in Montevideo
with Molinof were Moses Federmann
human Patulyosl,i and Marcos Mir
novich. Federmann told the police an
anarchist revolution could not long be
delayed in Uruguay, no matter what
precautions were taken The arrest Of
the ringleaders would not prevent the
setting up of a Soviet government, he
declared
The Bolshevists seem to have laid
ctheir plans carefully in Buenos Ayres,
{ ana are described in the dispatch as
having come within an ace of success.
Taey were aided by the fact that
rye strike was in progress and by the
enormous foreign population of Buenos
Ayres. Ire Argentine capital has
population OF nearly a million and
half and this is made up to a large ex-
tent Of foreigners, 100000 of these hav-
ing been added to the city's population
each year up to the time the war began.
Among these foreigners, statistics as
sert, are thousands Of anarchists, most

attacked and slew women and killed all

their effort to seize tie city by force,
the anarchists determined to starve The
city into Submission and with this end
in view they ordered the sale Of food to
