BOSTON, May 12-Although officials
were satisfied that New England exceed
ed its quota of $375,0O0,000 in the Vic
tory Liberty loan campaign which end
ed at midnight Saturday no totals for

Charles A. Morse, governor of the
Boston federal reserve bank, in ex-
planning the situation stated: ''The
federal reserve bank can make no state
ment today of subscriptions received
to the Victory Liberty loan that would
be of interest to the public or fair to
the different states. The reports which
have come for subscriptions received
Saturday are very incomplete, large
percentage Of banks having made no
report at all. There is no question but
that New England subscriptions have
exceeded its quota, but complete re-

HARDEN WARNS GERMANS.
Peace Conditions Not Harder Than Elk
Honesty Is Desired.

BERLIN, via London, May l2-Max
imillian Harden, editor of the Berlin
Die Zukunft, writing on the peace trea
~, says:
1.-The peace conditions are not hard
cr than | expected They were unpleas-
ant to the greater part Of the people
But could one really have expected
them otherwise?
The Germans have not given very
convincing mental guarantees during
the six months since the revolution that
they have changed their system; on
the contrary, the present government
and the press have used the same meth
ods Of incitement, the same tricks of
bluff as under the old rule Of the petty
nobility
The government : proclamations and
speeches are only bad copies of the
kaiser 5 time. The whole press re-
sounds in protests and has started a
campaign of Indictment against the
allies couched in violent language. 1t
is agitating for refusal to sign the
treaty; and to what use? All must
know that the allies by keeping up
the blockade and occupying the coal
districts, can force Germany to sign
whatever they want.
''The allies have been threatened
that Germany would join the Bolshevi-
ki. But that would be suicidal The
only way to rescue the country is by
openness and honesty. The revolution
has been a great disappointment.
" Germany should have sent men who
would have laid their cards on the ia
| bic and cot the allies to understand
that some of the conditions were unac
ceptable If Germany showed its goo(
viii to do what is in its power to com
ply with the allies requests, the allie,
would see that conditions were changed
in favor of Germany, because they
know there must be Germany and i
is impossible to destroy the German
people

ALL AGAINST ADMINISTRATION
j. Hamilton Lewis Much Surprised at
Western Sentiment.

CHICAGO, May 12-James Hamil-
ton Lewis, retiring Democratic whip of
the senate, who was defeated for re-
election by Medill Mccormick. re-
turned to Chicago yesterday after a
western trip to resume the practice of
law. He expressed surprise at senti-
ment in the Pacific coast and Mountain
states, complaining against every
thing going on with the administra-
tion at Washington.
He said the west and coast demand
that the soldiers be brought home at
once; that they are against soldiers be.
ing sent to Siberia or Germany, and
that they are opposed to any European
alliance.
''They are for the United States tax
ing control of Mexican affairs and by
force stopping the outrages on Ameri-
cans and their property, he continued,
. In this only was there warhke
spirit
Then he said he had been 'ffright-
ened by 1.-THE boldly inaugurated
scheme of those opposed to all orderly
government to fill the new army and
navy with officers and members who
on any order TO fight disorder or law
lessness would mutiny and take charge
of the government after the manner of

She Threw it Into His Face, Causing
Him to Fall and Run Into Arms

SKOWHEGAN, Me, May IA bottle
OF ink hurled by the matron of the wom-
ans state reformatory at one of two men
who attempted to break into that insti-

very effective weapon. The man had
reached the second story on ladder and
his face was pressed against a screen

ing the mans face with the contents,
while he toppled over and fell to the
ground. Starting to run away, the man
encountered Sheriff John Mooers and the

other escaped.

UNFORTUNATE EFFECT ON
THE TRUSTEES"

"This defendant denies that
the community spirit of Brattle-
boro has been, in any way, de-
moralized by the existence of
this fund or that it has had, in
any manner or degree, an unfor-
tunate effect upon the town, or
that there is any danger of the
community spirit becoming de-
moralized or any unfortunate eff
feet whatever being produced
upon said town by reason of this
fund.
1.-The danger, if any, appears
to be an unfortunate effect pro-
duced upon the trustees by
granting them too broad dis
erection in dispensing other peo-
pies money.
