Question OF Guilt.
OF the Kaiser he says: at must be
emphasized that the maintenance OF
peace, despite occasional temperamental
utterances that might be interpreted
otherwise. was the special aim and pol
icy Of Wilhelm" That the greater part
OF the world Is against Germany he
attributes largely TO Entente propaganda
and asserts that Germany's enemies
raised the question OF the guilt Of per-
sons and country only to Justify before
mands."
"ot guilt in war only those can
speak who deny the experience of his
tory" he says. 80 long as there have
been policies, that is, history, the last
resort In differences between peoples
has been an appeal TO arms for a de-
cision. The heroes of all times and all
countries would then be guilty; from
Cesar to Charlemagne. Louis XIV. 70

From the Kaiser down to the loves,

wish and hope that blood shedding
might be averted IL II could be done
without endangering our ally or our.

who call themselves Germans but Dc
no honor to the German name wher
they carry water for the mills of our op

clares. there is political purpose In tn,
cries OF guilt
Finally he points out that the distant
general causes OF the world conflagra
ton were the intensification OF the
European situation. the growth OF ma
tionaltsm in all countries, the genera
race in ornaments from which no ma

great tension and 'in that far all the
nations had their part In the guilt" The
immediate cause OF the war was Rus

Won Jagow contends that German,
suocumbed to the length OF the war and
TO superior numbers but our brave

The rioters systematically canvassed
the houses for Armenians. as was done

held up pedestrians, forcing them to

MONSTER ARENA FOR
BIG FIGHT WAS BUILT
BY JAMES MCLAUGHLIN

against any one not holding a ticket
slipping by.
Precautions against rushing of
the gates also have been taken.
Outside the arena eight feet distant
will be a barbed wire fence, or en-
tanglement, eight feet high and a
half mile long to keep the crowd
away from the entrances. Closer to
the arena will be a board fence
twelve feet high, surmounted by
barbed wire, while at the top of the
arena itself will be five-foot fence
of barbed wire with armed guards
stationed every twenty-five feet. The
$40, SIS, $25 and $40 and $40 seats
also will be separated from each
other by barbed wire to prevent oc-
cupants of one section moving into
better seats.
There will not be a stairway in
the entire arena, which is 600 feet
across. Entrance to the various
will be along inclined runways, with
a grade of one foot to every six
feet, making the climb scarcely no.
ticeable. The runways to the $40
seats, which will be thirty-four feet
from the ground, will be $50 feet in
length.
The $50 tickets entities holders to
seats about fifteen feet from the ring,
176 press seats for newspaper
writers taking up the actual ring
side. There will be forty-two seats
in the first row of the reserved seat
sections, while the last row of the
$40 seats will accommodate 1900
persons. The first row of $40 seats
will be about 276 feet from the mid
die of the ring.

builder of the arena. Mclaughlin is
known to fight followers from coast
to coast as the arenas of some of
the most important battles OF pugil-
ism have been constructed by him.
My experience at Reno taught
me a lesson" Mclaughlin said. I'VE
neglected to put up a barbed wire
fence in addition to a wood fence.
The result was that about 1000 men
climbed over the top and saw the
fight without paying a cent. Well

Will Distribute Land
Among Mexican People

Mexico City, June 2S.-The gov
ernment is preparing to distribute
among the people approximately
100000 hectares (of two and one
half acres) of land valued at 22,-
100000 pesos which represents con-
cessions given to comparatively
few individuals by several govern
ments previous to the Carranza
regime. All these concessions have
been cancelled by the present gov
ernment. The persons to whom the
land will be given must agree to
cultivate the property. A commits

result of the vote was as follows:
Tallest and quietest animal - Sou

Homeliest animal Peter, the

LATEST animal Cleopatra, the
seven-ton hippopotamus.
Noisiest animal Neptune chief

Funniest animal - Sailor, the ba-

Toledo, o., June 2S.-Thrusting it's
raw, yellow skeleton skyward, the
huge bowl-shaped arena, costing
$150,000 and originally planned to
seat $4,000 persons, is rapidly near
ing completion for the heavyweight
cham pionship contest between Jess
Willard and Jack Dempsey here
July 4.
Some idea of the immensity of the
arena may be obtained from the fact
that it is four times as large as the
arena in which Jack Johnson bat
tered Jim Jefferies to defeat in
Reno, New, and capable, of seating
four times as many persons. Ap-
proximately 1,750,000 feet of lum-
Der has been used in the structure.
Not a bolt has been used, the en-
tire building being held together by
nails of which two carloads or 50,-
600 pounds have been driven. All
new lumber has entered into the
construction and this will be sold
after the contest.
Although the structure was orig
inally planned for $4,000 persons,
a load OF $4,000 persons was taken
as the basis of the estimate and,
instead of allowing 175 pounds per
person, as is done in ordinary con-
struction for, live loads" an aver
age of 200 pounds was taken. This
gave a total live load" of 5000
tons, but to allow even a further
amount of safety margin, construc-
ton was based upon a load of TO-
900 tons.
Nor is the actual safety of the
spectators the only thing which has
been considered. Every effort has
been made to make it certain every
ticketholder will get the seat to
which his ticket entities him. To
take charge of the big crowd, there
will be four grand entrances, one.
each at the north, south, east and
west side of the arena. At each of
these will be four runways, one each
for the $40, SIS and s25 seats, while
the fourth will take care of the
$40, $40, $50 and $50 ticketholders.
In order to obtain entrance it will
be necessary to pass muster of three
separate ticket takers to guard

Toxic, June 2S.-Baron Ei-ichi
