TELL MUSTERING
OUT OF BEATEN
GERMAN ARMIES

MUNICH, Jan. 13.-(Correspond-
ence of the Associated Press.)-The
returning and demobilizing armies
here, in great part, come quietly home
put down their arms and disband
without trouble. A small percentage
of the unruly element, such as COM
pose the Liebknecht- -Spartacus anar-
chistic group, however, has made as
much trouble as possible, and has
shown special fondness for crooked
horse deals.
The Peasants Council of Munich
makes a public report to show that
hundreds of returning soldiers have
been permitted to keep horse as a
souvenir. The permission naturally
does not come from the military
authorities but from underlings, and
the soldiers have then put the animals
thus secured on the market at redicu-
lous prices.
One regiment that should never
have had less than 800 horses re-
turned with but eighty, the rest hav-
ing been sold, in many cases it is
feared, for slaughter-an easy way of
concealing all traces. The city
,>lthorities recently confiscated nine
ty-seven animals that had been sold
in this underhand way for slaughter.
The Peasants Council has organized
a guard of fortv men to help put
down this evil.

Incidentally the department. whose
members are at the beck and call

its equipment and dormitory fund
The greater part of the proceeds will
be placed on the purchase of addi-

will permit greater number of
members to be on hand at nights
for fire runs.
From the moment the lights first
flashed on, revealing to the onlook-
ers the tastefully decorated hall, un-
til the last dying strain of the mu-
sic in the wee sma' hours of the
morning, the affair moved off with
a swing and go that will make it
a permanent memory.
No greater tribute to the efficiency
and popularity of the fire depart

voluntary outpouring of citizens-it
was an exhibition of an appreciation
that will never be forgotten by the
"boys," according to Chief Folsom.

regards resumption of hostilities as
grave eventuality to which he will

considerations and not for any sec
ondary motive.
The Supreme Council has decided
that the armistice will be renewed on
February II for brief period. The
Allies reserve the right to suspend
it at any time in the event Of Ger.
