MANY CLASHES STAGED
BY FRANK ]. TAYLOR

Dy hANh j. IA LOk
Berlin, April 1 delayed 1.-The gem
eral strike is spreading through Ger
many Clashes have occurred between
workers and troops in various cities
resulting in casualties.
Indications are growing that the up
risings are inspired by the Spartacans
who are believed to be employing
these disturbances to weaken the gov
ernment, preparatory to declaring a
third revolution
The government has proclaimed n
state of seige in the whole RhineIand
dcfying the $4,000 miners on strike
there. The situation in that region
endangers food shipments and the
coal supply and may even effect pay
ments to the allies for maintenance
OF the armies of occupation.
Release of Herr Daumig, radical
leader charged with melting the Spar
tacan uprising in January, has tenn
porarily allayed the general strike in
Berlin. The metal workers here, how
ever, threaten to walk out on their
own initiative.
MOB STORMS FOOD SHOPS
During riots in Frankfort, mobs
stormed several food shops. Three
persons were killed and many were
wounded by rifle and machine gun
fire. The mobs then attacked the po
lice station and a number of hotels.
A sailor was dragged from the station
and lynched. His body was thrown
into the river. Government troops now
control the city.

Washington April 2.-President Wilson has started to
shake the ehargy out of the peace conference He has
the support of Lloyd George in his efforts.
With this information available today it is possible
to state that the president is determined to get action and
results now if it is found necessary to shock some of
the European chancellories.
He has tried soft words compliments, the well known
'save,' and wheedng. He was applying these in
abundance early last January but they have proved

leaders indicated today. Representa-
tive kitchin of North Carolina, rank
ing Democrat of the next house ways
and means committee, answered re-
ports that Democrats might co-oper-
ate with Republicans in framing q
substitute for the present Underwood
tariff law, with the statement that
he does not believe a new tariff either
necessary or possible at this time.
IF the Democrats controlled the
next house, I am sure there would be
no general tariff revision" Kitchin
said today.
l do not believe that a tariff can
be framed at this time that will stand
up. Conditions are changing so swiftly
that so days after a tariff was enact
ed, it might be found inapplicable to
the new conditions"
SOME OTHER WAY
Asked concerning the proposal of
several Democrats to levy tariff for
revenue areS nop-competitive articles,
such as tea and coffee, Kitchin de-
clared he believed the money could be
raised in some other way, that would
prove less burdensome to the public.
kitchin's declaration against tariff
legislation, coupled with the intention
of house Republican leaders to re-
enact protectionist schedules makes II
practically certain that the tariff
question will be before congress and
the country during the next session.
The Democrats negative program is
based on the belief that Republicans
will be unable to frame a tariff bill

ENTENTE IN FAVOR.

The British, French and Italians are
understood to be favorably inclined to-
ward such disposition of knotty prob
lem. Recent conferences have been de-
voted to efforts to frame a program
under which such scheme could be
worked out. This has been found diff
fieult as it is necessary to go into the
most minute details. There was a long
discussion, for instance, over the ques-
tion whether Germany should be liable
for British and French pensions.
The Americans are said to be oc-
cIpying a neutral position. Their en-
deavors being directed more at aiding
in framing the proposed formula.

For the first time the voice is heard
here expressing doubt that the confer
ence has the power to make peace. Au-
thoritative advices show plainly the
presence of Lenine and the Spartacan
leaders is felt with increasing force
at the peace table. And 1t is the view
of those close to the president here
that with continued indecision in
Paris, real authority will soon pass
from the allied chieftains to the grow
ing masses in Europe, who are over
riding order.
They look to the president to con-
tinue to speak OUT and tear the cur

conference, behind which the new and
old order of things is battling for
supremacy

Expressing no regret for the taking
of life, she said that she had hoped
to step into the place held by Mrs.
Storrs in the affections and life of the
husband, and remarked that "she was

By FRED S. FERGUSON.

Paris, April 2-An effort Is being
made, 1t was learned today, to insert a
formula in the peace treaty for ex-
acting reparation from Germany, with
out naming a specific amount. This
formula would clearly establish the
principles on which Germany must
pay, leaving to special allied COM
mission the task of determining how
much.
The special commission, accord.
ing to present plans, would con-
tinue in existence over a period of
years, following the Germans fl

and assessing damages according
ly. 1t would also be empowered to
make an inventory, after the con-
clusion of peace, for the initial
