DENVER PLANS To
PURCHASE BUSES
To BREAK STRIKE
Mayor To Propose Spending
S3,000,000i Says City Can
Do Without Street Cars and
Recalls London'S Example,

Denver, Colo, July 9, - Mayor
Dewey c. Bailey announced tonight
that he is considering a proposal to
be made to the city council that the
city expend $3,000,O00 for establish
ment of a municipal motor service
to take the place of the Denver
Tramway company, whose operation
is now tied up due to a strike of its
employees following a reduction in
wages. No cars were operated to-
cay.
The mayor stated that the city
would conduct such service peTma-
nently and charge a five cent fare
if the step was taken.
1--WE can get along without the
tramway company" the mayor said
London ended its street car strike
with motor lrries.'
A committee of fifty-five Denver
men, representing business and la
hor. named several months ago by
former Mayor Mills to devise
means of adjusting the street car
fare problem, will meet late tomor-
row afternoon and draw up a "ser-
vice at cost" plan to be submitted
OF the tramway company and city
officials, and possibly to the voters,
as means of settling the strike.
A similar plan was submitted by
the committee to Mayor Mills before
he left office. Under its provisions,
the tramway company would operate
under an adjustable fare, which
would be raised and lowered accord
ing to the amount of expense.
Among the expenses allowed would
thngn nf In
ials and a reasonable return-prob-
ably about Z per cent-to stockhold-
ers of the tramway company.
Mayor Bailey today reiterated his
statement hat there seemed to exist
an Understanding between the
tramway company and it's striking
elr lNyeg.
EDpm,uc denial that such an en-
tente existed was made today by Will
liam j. O'Brien, president of the To-
cal division of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation of Street and Electric Railway
Employees of America.
Mayor Bailey is entirely mistaken"
said Mr.. OBrien. THE only Circum-
stances that might have caused him
to arrive at his erroneous conclusion
might be the fact that the strikers
are conducting their case in an order
ly manner.
This respect for law and order on
our part, however, is not due to any
lukewarmness or doubt in the justice
of our cause, but rather because it has
always been our policy to avoid vio-
lence. When we come before the TO-
rum Of public opinion, we wish to do
so with a good record back of us,
'In the meanwhile, however, the
union will not tolerate any attempt to
operate cars with non-union crews. We
are in the fight to the finish"
Frederick w. Hid general mana
ger of the tramway, declined to COM
ment on Mayor Baileys statement
saying that "he had no desire to enter
into controversy with the mayor"

other kings, though constitutional and
innocent, are inclined to view with

"If william Hohenzollern's guilt be
proved, the death penalty has been
ruled out, it is understood, as a result
of the deliberations the allies have
held on this question in Paris.
"It Is stated that the view of the
United States is strongly opposed to
the former kaiser's execution. He will
have his own counsel and he will be
tried for his completely in viola ting
the treaty safeguarding the neutrality
of Belgium and Luxembourg. 1t is not
the intention of the allies that he will
be charged with violations of the rules
of warfare by land and sea, for which
other German offenders will be tried.
IF he be found guilty on the SIM
pier issues, the opinion favored in FL
lied circles in Paris is that banishment
in sure and safe custody should be his
punishment
Il gather that the British admir-
atty list of offenders who they deem
should be brought to trial is now CON-
plete and that there are seventy one
names set forth on it. These are nor
to be divulged for the present. They
include enemy persons responsible for

.REsUMP TON Of
GERMAN TRADING
IS UP To PALMER
# Blockade is Raised Then the
Question is Whether Pro-
visions of Trading With En-
eny Act Are Suspended,

Washington, July 9.--While ratifi-
cation of the peace treaty by the Ger
man national assembly at Weimar to-
day makes possible the raising of the
blockade of Germany it will be for
Attorney General Palmer to deter
mine to what extent commercial rela-
tions between the United States and
Germany be resumed. Should the al
lied and associated powers agree to
lift the blockade, Attorney General
Palmer will have to render an opinion
as to whether provisions of the trad
ing with the enemy can be suspended
or abrogated by executive order in
advance of the formal termination of
the war through final exchange of
ratification of the peace treaty.
The attorney general in informal
statements has declared the trading
with the enemy act must continue in
force until the date of the procama-
ton of exchange of peace treaties un-
less the president declares an earlier
date.
However, the state department,

ence in Paris notice of the action taken

that in the case of the United States
President Wilson must issue his proc

The action of the president is said
to be in no sense dependent upon the
treatment of the peace treaty by the
United States for the reason that the
blockade was established as purely
military measure"

London, July 9.-Premier Lloyd
Georges ability to fulfill his promise
of the eX-kaiser's head to the British
populace is regarded here with pro-
found scepticism.
1nterallied legal experts in Paris
entirely failed to find any ground un-
der international law upon which Hol-
land could be called upon to surrender
him. The position then arrived al
was that If a prima facie case could
be made against him for the commits
sion of crime eXtraditable under the
treaty with any of the allies, Holland
could be called upon to hand him over
for trial under the law of that partic-
l.lar state.
If the kaiser learns the Dutch gov
ernment has decided to surrender him
irrespective of international law as an
act of policy, he has the choice of
four alternatives:
l. Escape in Germany.
2. Suicide.
8. Voluntary surrender to the al
lies.
4. To await surrender by Holland.
The fallen monarch who deserted
his beaten army to save his own skin

Too Much Peril i'm Escape.
An escape into Germany would be
fraught with personal danger al pres

surrender by Holland as promising
the best hope of personal security,

consideration. In the meantime. the

the treaty makes 1t possible for the
allied and associated powers to raise

sent Germany June 80 that the block
ade would be raised when the treaty
was ratified Placing this condition
on the raising of the blockade was
looked upon in peace conference cir

ship on communications with Germany
simultaneously with the removal OF
the blockade.

for those who have ratified 1t. After
Germany and the three allied powers
have ratified it, the treaty will come
into force for each other power on

conference secretariat of its ratiflca-
ton.

ty to adopt ratifying resolution. The
treaty has been laid before the Brit
