League Urges Pardon
For Eugene V. Debs

New York, Mar. 25.-A full pardon
for Eugene V. Debs. former Socialist
presidential candidate now under a
ten years prison sentence for viola
tion of the espionage law, and amnes-
ty for all persons imprisoned for
honest expressions of opinion against
Americas cause in the war" were
urged in a petition cabled to Presi-
dent Wilson by the executive commit
tee OF the Social Democratic League
of America
The release of Debs was advocated
on the ground of his advanced years,
high moral character and long years
OF devoted service to the cause Of
human freedom, notwithstanding his
violation of law"
In their plea for amnesty for other
convicts under the wartime statutes,
the petitioners excluded those who
defined the law or. purposely aided
the enemy" They added that Amer
lea could afford to be generous to
honest opponents of her course. now
that victory has been achieved"

CONFESS PLOT
TOATTACK THE
u. s. TROOPS
Agitators Planned to Organize
Spartacan Forces in
Germany

CobIenE. March 25-Three agita,
tors. admittedly Spartacan sympa'
thizers, confessed to the American
military authorities that they came
into the occupied area for the pur.
pose OF furtherinG movement
among the German workmen to or.
ganiZe Spartacan forces Sufficiently
that in time they would gain
strength enough to attack the Amer
lean soldiers and take possession OF
Coblenz banks and railway stations
and receive assistance from unoccu-
pied Germany.
Frederick Schwarzkopt, one OF the
leaders of the movement. was ar
rested Sunday with six other agita-
tors. The military police now have
nineteen Germans under arrest on
various charges connected with ef-
forts to create unrest among civilian
workmen. Schwarzkopf recently
came TO Coblenz from Berlin. He
told the workmen he was one OF the
Spartacan group which stormed the
palace OF the former German Emper-
or.
Original Plans Failed
The original plans were for an up
rising on March l5 or the day after,
according to those under arrest, but
the plan fell through owing to lack
of interest among the workmen.
Schwarzkopf ana the other leaders
planned to attack the German police
station, gain possession of arms,
seize, the railway stations and tele-
graph office and later take charge
of the banks and affairs generally.
Schwarzkopf said he received thirty
marks q day from the Spartacans for
his work as an aEitatOr,
The Americans had full informa-
tion OF the plans OF the agitators
early in March and soon began ar
resting the leaders in the plot and
also those who showed any sympa-
thy with the Spartacan movement.
Secret reports TO army headquar-
ters from various parts of the occu-
pied area are to the effect that the
civilian laborers employed on the
roads and various jobs under Ameri-
can supervision have no intention to
strike or to join the Spartacan move
ment.

KING NOTES APPEAL
TO SUPREME COURT

J. A. King was fned $50 In musings
court for selling soft drinks without
a city permit to do so in violation OF
section Sab OF the prohibition law.
Motion to set aside the verdict as
contrary to the law and evidence was
set aside but execution OF the tudg-
ment was delayed until September Is.
This was done to allow King sufficient
time to make an appeal to the su-
preme court. He was bailed in the
sum OF 5000 for appearance in court
on the date mentioned. when the fne
will be paid II the supreme court does
not alter the decision rendered yes
terday.
King is the ''iast of the Mohicans'
among the once populous crowd who
insisted on selling soft drinks and
cigarettes on Sunday. His establish
ment at ais East Broad street has
never closed and he appears still de-
termined to sell on Sunday until the
supreme court tells him he Is in the
wrong.
He bases his claim to legal right In
the matter on the grounds OF
religious freedom, being Seventh
Day Adventist by faith. The fine inn
posed yesterday was for doing bust
ness without the license,
He applied for a license to sell soft
drinks but was refused by the court
because he would not agree to refrain
