PRINCE OF WALES
 GIVEN 4 HOME

London, June 27. Correspondence of the Associated Press. )-The Prince of Wales is now 25 and King George has decided that he should have his own residence. York House, St. James, the home of his boyhood days has been selected.
 Except that it lacks a garden and garage, York House is regarded as an adnlira ble residencei Decorators are now preparing it for the prince, who will move in in about a month. His household will not be large.
 York House formerly was the pro- perty of the King of Hanover, who refused to let Queen Victoria have it. But after his death she was able to offer it to the widowed Duchess of Cambridge. Subsequently the house was occupied by the Duke of Clarence and the present king and queen Its most recent occupants have been the late Lord Kitchener and Sir William Robertson.
 Since the armistice the Prince of Wales has been very much in the pub lie eye, and his activities are diversi- fled. He made a speech in the ring at the National Sporting Club after the LynchzWild contest, being introduced by Lord Lonsdale the chief figure of the British sporting world. He spoke also at the dinner of the Royal Acad- emy on the eve of the opening of the annual exhibition which was at tended by a great gathering of not ables.
 He has been initiated into the Free Masons, following in the footsteps of his grandfather, King Edward, and his great uncle, the Duke of Con- naught, and has become an honorary member of two of the old city trade guilds.
 Recently the Prince flew over Lon don in an airplane piloted by one of the most daring army fliers, and loop ed the loop and went through all the most up to date program of stunts. which the more conservative aviators have begun to discourage since the end of hostilities.

HUN OFFICER
 DIDN'T SALUTE
Captain Bachhauser Gets Fine of One Thousand
 Marks.

Coblenz, Tuesday, June 24 - (By A. P.)-Captain Bachhauser, assigned by the German army to duty in Cob lenz, was fined 1000 marks today for refusing to salute an American lieu tenant. The captain contended the war was, over and that, anyway, the regulations did not call for his salut ing an officer of lower rank. This is kind since definite turn was taken in the peace situation.
 American officers say that after the treaty of peace is signed the regula- ton issued last December compelling German officers to salute will proba- bly not be enforced. Civilians gen orally have seemed relieved as a re- suit of the action of the German na tional assembly at Weimar in refer ence to peace. Several individual in stances have been reported here, how ever, in which civilians in the streets have assumed a naughty attitude toward the soldiers without serious results.
 The Americans do not expect any trouble between civilians and soldiers, but extra precautions have been taken by the military police at Treves, Cob lenz and other towns to prevent trou- b1e. With view to avoiding clashes, no night leaves will be allowed in any of the towns within the occupied area, the officers desiring to have their men in the barracks at night, when most of the quarrels and fights be- tween Germans and Americans have occurred.

FREE TRADE

The first Englishman of any prom thence to advocate the doctrine of free trade was John Horne Tooke, who was born at Westminster 1S3 years ago today, Took was the father of modern, free trade doctrines, and he suffered the usual fate of the pioneer and was ridiculed as a crazy fanatic and denounced as a dangerous character. In many other ways Tooke was an original character, and hate full to the conservative people of his day, He had been a priest, but abah- doned that calling. He opposed the war against America with such power and zeal that he was arrested and inn prisoned. He advocated reform of inc House of Commehs, and his ideas were caFried out twenty years after his death. In many other ways he anticipated popular reforms As an author he was best known by his ety. molosical work, The Diversions of Pur1ey." Like many other political and religious heretics.

vested The trustees and overseers of the college were ordered to report to the governor, but they refused to obey the summons or to act under the laws of June 27. Instead, the old trustees began suit for the recovery of the college property, which was decided against them in the New Hampshire supreme court.
 The Dartmouth College case at tracted the attention of the whole country, and the English benefactors of the institution also took part in the controversy. The legal battle was carried to the United States supreme court, where the judgment of the New Hampshire court was reversed. and the inviolability of chartered property fully established, This liti- gahvn gave to all private trusts the protection of the law, and restored Dartmouth to the old trustees.
 The arguments before the United States supreme court were participat- ed in by several distinguished law yers, Daniel Webster, Jeremiah Smith and Jeremiah Mason representing the plaintiffs, while William Wirt, Will liam .Pinkney and John Holmes spoke for the other side. It was by his elaborate arguments in this case that Daniel Webster, at the age of s5. took rank among the most distinguished d jurists of America Himself a gradu- ate of Dartmouth.

SERBIA FLOODED
 WITH GOODS OF
 TEUT0NIC ALLIES

Belgrade, May 10. (By Man)-The German and Austrian peaceful infil- tration of Serbia has begun. The hotels of this city harbor guests whose identity is revealed by their heavy Teutonic cast of features. They talk in German and laugh loudly over their beer. Indeed if one does not speak German in Belgrade one sometimes finds himself misunder- stood. The walters do not know Eng fish or French in the majority of cases.
 My friends in Basic told me I would be mobbed in Belgrade if I spoke German there,'' declared a self styled Swiss salesman. However, I found that when spoke Italian I was treated with disrespect, that when I spoke English I was smilingly but politely told, in German, that I could be best served by speaking the tongue I know best.''
 Serbia from one end of the country to the other has been flooded with cheap Austrian and German goods. How they got in one cannot learn but every shop window in the villages from Uskub to Semendria contains cheap mirrors, toilet articles, knives and gimcracks of every description Made in Austria Many of the ar ticles are backed with colored pie lures under celluloid of the former Austrian and German Emperors in all their regalia- There seems to be little prejudice against German and Austrian goods among the peasants and village dwellers of Serbia.
 The Serbian hates the Bulgarian as venomously as ever but he does not sing a morning hymn of hate against Germany or Austria The country is flooded with pictures of atrocities by Bulgarians upon Serbians. The for mer Emperor Charles picture still adorns the local police headquarters.
 In Belgrade there is bitterness against the Austrians, especially among the better class of people whose homes were systematically dez spoiled by Austrian officers who shipped sixty trains of household goods from Belgrade across the Danube into Austria Each train was composed of approximately thirty cars. Three hundred pianos were in cluded in the loot. Belgrade and Northern Serbia are flooded with the appreciated Austrian currency, in fact there apparently is more Austrian money in circulation than Serbian.
 The American Red Cross employs a
 
 porting its supplies. They are better clothed than many Serb soldiers and go about the streets laughing and joking and in general quite at home.
 The American Red Cross has for it's warehouse the Palace Hotel which, just finished before the war was in tended to be the best hotel in Bel grade. When the Austrians entered the town, however, they deliberately smashed the plate glass mirrors, marble wainscoting and stab1ed their horses in the drawing room and din- ing saloon. The woodwork was torn out for hrewood and the mahogany furniture wantonly hacked with axes.
 Major G. H. Edwards of Orlando, Fla, who has been in charge of the American Red Cross work in North ern Serbia distributed help to local orphanges and hospitals, started workrooms for needy women, gave out supplies to hospitals, and has equipped medical staffs which travel through northern Serbia.
