proceeding to take up charges as to
the alleged placing Of friends in po-
sitions where they might profit by
the sale of enemy property and had
just stated that these charges were
made by Senator Frelinghuysen and
others, when the senator jumped to
his feet. For an instant he and the
attorney general glared at each 9TH
er.

senator shouted. ~ am a senator

fore the committee, in proper

The attorney general snapped
back that he was not trying to bluff
anybody. However" he added, Il

huysen's name out Of il"
When Mr.. Palmer concluded his
two-hour statement, Senator FIRE.
linghuysen told the committee if it
decided to 60 into the investigation
of the alien property custodian's Of
flee he could present witnesses in
support of charges against his ad-
ministration. Complaints had come
to him from some of his constitu-
ents, he said.>
Comes Back Strong.
Mr.. Palmer came back with the
assertion that Senator Frelinghuy-
sen had visited New York detective
agencies to find out il f"they did not
have something onPalmer." He &C
cused the senator of making state
ments to newspapers regarding
charges against him. Lewis and
Andrews also were accused of CIV
ing out statements purporting to be
evidence and distorting the facts.
Andrews, who had been picked
out by the attorney general as one
of the particular objects of his
wrath, broke into the hearing at the
close by challenging Mr.. Palmer's
statements concerning him. The
room soon was in an uproar, but
Chairman Dillingham; suddenly end
ed the meeting.
Later it was announced the
committee would decide Saturday
whether to issue subpoenas for wit
nesses desired by Lewis and whether
it would grant his request that the
attorney general be required to pre-
sent voluminous records.

The local union, it is charged, re-

ing it is not in good standing.
Mediation Postponed.
Inability to inform Walter
Jardine and w. A. Gordon of the
proposed meeting, between four en-
ployers and four representatives of
the Transfers union forced Mayor
Smith to postpone his first effort to
mediate the strike until this after
noon. Four employers and the
strikers conference committee were
to have conferred at the mayors
office at 4 O'Clock yesterday after
noon. Neither Mr.. Jardine nor Mr..
Gordon could be found yesterday in
time to attend the meeting.
The first real step toward media
ton in the strike followed a con-
ference between the mayor and~the
committee consisting of Chairman
Caldwell and Business Agents
Rooney, Slater and Vaughn.
Members of the committee ex-
pressed the opinion that the strike
could be easily settled if the EN-
ployers agreed to meet committee
of the/strikers. Employers have
persistently refused to meet the
strikers but have expressed will
ingness to meet their employees.
General Walkout Planned.
A general walkout by all local
unions in the city next Monday is
said to have been threatened.
Demands for increased wages
were presented by drivers Of ice

today. 1t is understood that unless
the demands are met by Saturday

drivers will follow.

The centrists, democrats and ma

The general change in opinion is

An unconfirmed report received

bureau at Coblenz, says Count Won
Bernstorff, former German am
bassador to the United States has
been named as minister OF foreign
affairs and that he will come to
Versailles to sign the peace treaty.
The Temps, understands that
Matthias Erzberger, if he takes
power in Germany, will ask two
notifications of the peace treaty.
The first will be the toning down of
the clause concerning responsibility
for the war so as to spare German
susceptibilities, and the second
abandonment of prosecution of the
former emperor.
Plan For Advance.
The supreme council confirmed
Friday the plans made by the mill
tary authorities for resumption Of
the advance into Germany in the
event of the failure of the Germans
to sign the peace treaty within the
allotted time.
Marshal Foch, Major General
Bliss. General Robertson of the
British army and other military
chiefs were before the council ard
explained the details OF the allted
plans. The reports of the fall of
the Scheidemann government had
not reached the council when these
plans were discussed.
1t is not expected the order for
the allied armies to advance will be
given exactly at the time of the ex-
piration of the time limit of the al
lies, but it was indicated that there
would be little delay if any in the
maneuvers.
Baron Sonnino was not present at
the meeting of the council, but the
fact that General Cavallero was
called in was regarded as indicating
that the allies still regard Italy's
position as not materially changed
by the overthrow of the Orlando
government.
