Failure of u. S.
To Ratify Treaty
Helps Germany
tBy Associated press. J

Paris, Dec. 3.-Germany has decided
NOT to sign the protocol presented to
her by the Allies as condition for
putting the peace treaty into effect,
the peace conference has been notified.
It was learned today that Baron Kurt
Won Lersner, head of the German dele
CATION here, called on Secretary Butas
ia of the conference on Monday and
told him that Germany had made such
decision. This attitude is taken as
confirming reports of sharp reaction
in Germany within the last fortnight.
Trained observers of German develop
ments have expressed to members of
the peace conference the view that
there has been complete transforma-
tion of the situation in Germany and
that it is due to the failure of the
United States senate to ratify the
peace treaty.
These observers declare that while
the vast majority Of the Germans, be-
fore the senate's adjournment, desired
t1IS pCdC6 CACcbOJ sItGluSQ do oOuA DIS pOc
sible, they are now supporting the gov
eminent s attitude in resisting the de-
mand Of the Allies for indemnity for
the sinking of the German fleet at
Scapa Flow, recompense for which was
provided in the protocol.
The question upon which the German
representatives here, however, appear
most sensitive, is the insistence upon
the trial of German officers accused of
the commission Of crimes in France and
Belgium. Thus far it is stated mo indi-
cations have reached Paris Of any dis
position on the part of the Germans to
modify their attitude.
Germany is willing to sign the pro-
tocol, putting the peace treaty into
effect, the minute that certain clauses
now Objectionable to Germany are TAX
en- out, Kur Won Lerzner, head OF t&e
German delegation told the representa-
tives of the Associated Press this af-
ternoon.

Badger Vets See
Neu, Chance For
Sale OF Liquor
(By Associated Press)

Milwaukee, Wis, Dec. 3.--215a6 beer
may be sold in Wisconsin even after
the prohibition amendment goes into
effect if Federal Judge Geiger upholds
the contention made in the answer Of
the Manitowoc Products Company to a
suit brought by one of its stockholders
to prevent the company from manufac-
turing and selling such beer. Prob
ably only the securing of a writ of
supersedeas will prevent such manu-
facture and sale in the event that the
company wins this decision. Such q
writ would restrain the manufacture
and sale of such beer until the Circuit
Court of Appeals had ruled on an ap-
peal from Judge Geiger's decision. The
hearing in Judge Geiger s. court has
been set for December 18th. If the
judge follows the precedent which he
has set in other prohibition cases. his
decision will be announced about q
week after the hearing of the areu-
ments

Hoped to Try Carlson.

District Attorney Peter Fisher, Jr.,
declared this morning that he was
hopeful that Tit case of the State VS..
Carl F. Carlson, charged with the muir
der of Tony Pingatore, could be tried
at this term. Carlson, it is declared,
will be arraigned on the charge of muir
der and tried on that charge with the
understanding that should he be ac-
quilted Of the charge that he may then
be placed on trial on charge of burg
larry to which he has announced his
willingness to plead guilty. Clerk De-
Diemar expressed doubt as to whether
or not the court could hear the Carlson
case at this time. "The Judge has so
much work in Racine and Kenosha
counties, said the clerk, that
think that it is doubtful that Carlson
can be brought to trial even if he
valves the preliminary hearing. The
eases on the calendar will have the first
call and they may keep the court busy
until the opening Of the term in
March.
George Gertz, charged with attempt
ing to blow the safe at the offices of
the Blatz Brewing Company, is also
awaiting trial and it is believed that
the trial of this case, which is set for
next Monday, may follow the trial of
Bogwilo.

Clerk Of the Circuit Court B. M.
DeDiemar this morning sent out notices
to the attorneys that the Circuit Court
would resume its sessions on next Mon
day morning with Judge William B.
Quinlan of Marinette on the bench.
The criminal calendar will be called
and the next two weeks of the court
will probably be designated as the

While all of the criminal cases on
the calendar are called for trial before
Judge Quinlan, interest centers in the
trial of two and possibly three cases
of murder. 1t hassbeen announced that
no further continuance viii be granted
in the trial of the cases.
sur1ana Case an Old Timer.
The case of the State VS.. Carnline
Suriana, IN which charge Of murder
is made, is one Of the old timers on
the calendar and it has been laid over
from term to term for more than two
years. 1t is expected to be tried but
it is admitted that most of the interest
in the case has been lost and that a
deathbed confession is about the only
evidence that the state has against the
defendant. It has been suggested that
there is possibility that Suriana may
be permitted to plead to minor charge
and that the evidence in the case will
never reach the jury.
Bogwi1o Case is Featured.
The case Of the State VS.. Julius Bog
wilo, charged with the murder of his
wife, Mary Bogwilo, promises to be one
Of the features Of the term. Bogwilo
has been busy for weeks preparing his
defense and it is declared that the
funWritten law together with an ap-
peal of mental weakness will be urged
in favor of the defendant. Attorney
Robert Vernon Baker, who is to defend
Bogwilo, has announced that he will
be ready for the trial of the case on
Monday morning and it is possible that
it will be the first case on the calendar
for trial
