XMAS OPPORTUNITY
RECEIPTS WERE $7,299.86

The Associated Charities today an
nounced that cash payments and
pledges for the 1918 Christmas op-
portunities were larger than any
made in any previous year. The re-
port, which was submitted to the an
nual meeting of the charities yester-
day, showed receipts of ST,299.S6 in
cash and $6O5 in pledges. totaling
s7.s04.s6 for the Christmas opportu-
mites.
Last years total receipts amounted
to $7.6S7.77. In 1917 five persons
gave $3,16S, and this Christmas the
same group gave $S75. The difference
Of S2,293, which was made UP by
smaller contributions, would indicate,
according to the officers of the asso-
citation, that their work is being re-
ceived with wider interest than be-
fore.
Milton E. Allies, chairman of the
joint finance committee, stated that
$4,000 will be needed to complete the

Newberry Charged With
Gross Corruption in
Ford Recount Petition

The petition OF Henry Ford for q
recount of the ballots in the Michigan
Senatorial election. in which Truman
H Newberry, Republican, was return
ed elected. carries with il a mass of
data containing allegations of cor
rupffon probably without q parallel
in q State fight II the statements
made are true or nearly true, the old
Addieks fights in Delaware, the
Lorimer case in Illinois and such IA
nous or, rather, Infamous, money
fights fade into the background. The
estimates of the cost of Newberry's
campaign, given in the papers in thu
case, run as high as $500, 900. The
Senate Committee on Privileges and
Elections will consider Ford's con-
test Friday.
The papers accompanying Ford's
petition deal as much with the pri-
mary for the Republican nomination
for Senator, as with the general
election Copies OF various letters
and newspaper. articles set forth al
legations that huge sums. were spent
in the primary, to meet apparent
claims OF Newberry's supporters that
such q fight was necessary in order to
check Ford, called a "pacifist." Re-
publican opponents of Newberry de-
clare that the barrel was opened In
his behalf before Ford was thought

KAISER SAVED BY
GEN. LUDENDORFF
sgzsz1slkEzs.sssszzgzNzazi

Dramatic capture Of the Kaiser, or
possibly his death on the field Of
battle. was averted only by the in
tervention of Ludendorff, it was
learned through authoritative diplo-
matte disclosures here today.
Wilheim's arrival at German gem
era1 headquarters after his flight
from Berlin was the signal for a re-
vival of spirit Of the discoura ed
German troops, according to the dis
closures. Several high staff men
suggested that the Kaiser go into tho
midst of the battle, it is stated. nd
the suggestion was taken up by the
Prussian guards and other stauach
Teuton legions.
Ludendorff opposed the scheme, it
is declared, on the ground that 1t
would result in no military gain and
would endanger the army's with
drawal.
The advices also disclosed the fact
that German general headquarters on
August Is admitted approaching de.
feat and recommended the Kaiser,s
abdication. Chancellor Won Hertling
flatly refused to inform the Reich
stag or the press of the true military
situation, it was declared.

1t appears that after being defeated

the general election. Newberry wrote
him a rather effusive letter Of thanks,
which provoked the following reply
to Newberry, said to have been pub
lished throughout Michigan as an
open letter:

My Dear Commander: l have read

Finally, the Ford papers contain
another statement from Lieutenant
Governor Dickinson, the first Repub-
lean quoted. After he had been re-
'lected, at the same time Newberry
was returned elected to the Senate
over Ford. Dickinson is quoted as hav-
ing referred, in his inaugural address
on New Years Day to "a candidacy
that doubtless cost more money than
ever before was paid for a nomina-
ton for office in all the worlds his

and Republican primaries, that being
permitted under the Michigan law.
Ford was nominated by the Demo-
Gratis. Newberry also was opposed. in
the Republican primary by. former
Gov. Chase s. Osborn and William g.
Simpson, both Republicans. The two
Republicans are quoted in Ford's
papers in the case as voicing condem-
ration Of Newberrys primary cam
paign in the most brutal terms. :
Osborn Is quoted as having told New
berry, in an open letter, following the
primary, that he would prove himself
"a liar and an ass' If he pleaded that
he did not know what was done in his
campaign (which he has done), and
as having advised Newberry to con-
fess publicly that he knew all about
1t, and that he had broken the law.
Simpson is quoted as having said in
a statement in the Detroit News, after
a review Of Newberry's campaign: 'I
won't vote for Newberry and I can't
vote for Ford" and as also sayingt
"If we can look ahead to the sure de-
feat of Newberry, we can see the just
release of impending dishonor to the
State"
Ford Claims 10000 Ballots.
Ford. in his petition, contends. that
the 200 precincts in the State were
manned by Republican officials, and
that there were few Democratic chal-
lengers; that at least 10000 ballots
cast for Ford were counted for New
berry; that as many more ballots, cast
for Ford, were improperly rejected;
that in many precincts the count was
fraudulent; that in the upper penin-
