La Savoie enthusiastic over the dlpio-
matte work of President Wilson in
Paris and jubiiant over the prospects
of freedom for Ireland. He said the
people of the Balkans look upon Amer.
ica as the savior OF the world and
upon Woodrow Wilson as a god.
He said no fear need be entertained
for further trouble from Germany, as
the Germans were tired Of fighting and
are now obliged to keep order. Like
wise. there is no danger to be encoun-
tered in Hungary if the peace confer
ence uses its power.

THAT there is no Bolshevism in Ser

due to the assistance given them by
this country in the way of food and
the splendid work of the Red Cross.

fCcpyrsL, 1919. New York Tribune lnc)
BERLIN, July s.-The mysterious
arrest last week of Philip NJ Price,
correspondent Of The London Daily
Herald" the organ OF the British Labor
radicals, is attracting much attention
among the foreign spondents.
Price formerly was correspondent OF
"The Manchester Guardian" in Russia,
where he sided with the Bolsheviki. He
also wrote a BOOK on the Bolshevik
movement. His arrest was due oStensi-
bly, TO intrigues with the revolutionary
elements opposing the German govern"
ment. Much mystery surrounds the
case. and it has been impossible to
learn definitely what charges have
been brought against him.
A speech is published here to-day
which DR.. Oskar Cohn. Independent
Socialist. made Saturday in the Ma
tional Assembly, wherein he referred
10 the case. He said that Price was
taken under "protective arrest which
was one of the commonest methods
adopted Dy thc Hii''"is ~u'""i
during the war 70 get rid OF trouble
some persons. Dr.. Cohn said:
The protective arrest of Price was
ordered despite the fact that the For
cign Office protested mos. energetically
and demanded his liberation, because
the Foreign Office rightly fears that
highly unfavorable impression will be
made upon the outside world by this
illegal and foolish arrest. The states
attorney denied that il was Minister
of Defence Noske who advised and
steered him; evidently he was dis
pleased with Price on general princi-
ples. So we see again. as in numerous
cases during the war. that the military
authorities care devilish little about
the counsel and representations OF the
Foreign Office and the international
effects of their measures

PARIS. July 8. - The agreement
reached by the Allied Council that the
trial of the former Emperor William
would be held in London, as announced
by Premier Lloyd George in the House
Of Commons, was a tacit one, but from
American sources it was learned to-
day that the agreement was regarded
as binding.
What purports to be an authentic
account OF the incident n the counci!
upon which the British Premier based
his statement, has become available
from q usually reliable source. II is
stated that at a meeting Of the council
last week the British Premier said to
his fellow conferrees something as fol-

ings will be brought by the Entente

Gated in conversations with the CORE

without any certainty that the Neither

They are almost unanimously con-
