TO Receive Many Millions

WASHINGTON. Feb. 1s-Abolish-
ment of the nine sub-treasuries, the
offices of thirteen state surveyors gen
eral and two assay Offices is proposed
in the Legislative appropriation bill, re-
ported to-day by the House Appropria-
tions Committee. A reduction of $1s,-
100000 from department estimates for
clerk hire and miscellaneous expenses
was made, but the bills total of $104,-
100000 is one Of the largest peace time
Legislative appropriations on record.
Several unusual items, including
SAP ,038, 600 for the Internal Revenue
Bureau for collecting taxes and enforc-
ing the national prohibition, $11,324,-
600 for the War Risk Insurance Bu-
reau and $5,000,000 for the decennial
census, largely account for the high
total.
The sub-treasuries which would be
abolished at the end of the year are
at Baltimore, New York, Phiade lphia,
Boston, Cincinnati, Chicago. st. Louis,
New Orleans and San Francisco The
surveyors general to be discarded on
June so next would be those in Ari-
zona, California, Colorado, Idaho. Mon
tana, Nevada, New Mexico, Oregon,
South Dakota, Utah, Washington, Wy
oming and Alaska. The assay Offices
at Deadwood. S. d., and Salt Lake City
would be closed on June 80.

LONDON, Feb. 1s.-The path of
making concessions to Germany, which
the Allies entered upon with the al
toration Of the stipulations regardin z
war criminals, was followed again to-
day wien the peace conference decided
to grant Germany extra time in which
to demobili2e her army.
The new German Charge d'Affaires,
Herr Sthamer, was handed a note
signed by Premier Lloyd George as
president Of the Allied Supreme Coun-
Gil. giving Germany until April 10 to
reduce the number Of her military eff
fectives to 100000 and until July 10
to make the final reduction to 10O,-
600, as provided in the treaty. Article
l60, OF the treaty, provides that Ger
many must reduce her military cstab-
lishment to 100000 by March 81, but
Mn. Lloyd George says this clause was
inserted when it was expected that
ratification would take place at a date
earlier than it actually did.
The Premier informed Herr Sthamer
OF the councils new attitude as the
result of attention having been
brought by the president Of the AL
lied central commission in Berlin to
the difficulties Germany would en-
counter if she attempted TO comply
with the order and the reduction
clause were strictly enforced.

Newfoundland Is Icebound
Suffering and Deaths Caused by
Record Ice Packs

HALIFAX, Feb. 1S.--Arctic ice packs,
literally black with walrus, seals and
other polar creatures, are the largest
within memory, according to reports
brought here by sailors and overland
travellers. The solid ice extends fur
ther south than at any time within
years, with the bays and inlets firing
ing the Newfoundland coast locked
tightly. The solid pack extends eight
miles south of Wainwright, 100 miles
north of Point Lay.
Newfoundland is icebound and rail-
roads are completely tied up. Inhab-
itants in the interior are suffering in
tensely and several deaths from expo
sure have resulted. Communication be-
tween settlements is impossible except
by dogsleds.
Reports of strange malady have
been received from Gander Bay, which
is without doctor. The disease is an
affection of the throat and has claimed
many lives, particularly children.

quence of the Presidents relation
toward the Constitution and policy of
his own country which has been a
source of weakness to the Allies since
the opening of the peace conference"
The paper finds it difficult "to state
that obvious truth without seeming to
reflect upon the Presidents views" but
deems 1T improper to comment upon
"'the singular position he occupies in
American politics" 1t adds:
1--WE feel sure, however, that the
President would agree that the Allies
in dealing with his demands are bound
that acquiescence on their part will be
recognized by the United States Senate
In default of that assurance we do not
see what course is open to the Allies
other than an endeavor to arrive in
dependently at practical solution of
the many formidable problems with
which they are confronted"
Sir Edward Carson, the Ulster
leader, asked in the House Of Commons
to-day whether it was a fact that a
harsh and uncompromising reply had
originally been drafted to President
Wilson's dispatch and whether it had
subsequently been changed as the re-
suit Of representations by Viscount
Gfey, Lofd hoDerC cecil ana austen
Chamberlain.
Andrew Bonar Law, the government
spokesman, replied that there was not
the shadow of foundation for such a
suggestion. Indeed" Mr.. Bonar Law
said, ~ think it hardly necessary to
say that there was not single rep
of any of the Allied powers
at the conference who does not recog-
nize the supreme Importance of good
understanding with the government and
people of the United States"

Nitti lntinates Pact on
4driutic rs Peryn0ne,,t

LONDON, Feb. 1s.-"The Pail Mall
Gazette" this afternoon quotes Premier
Natti OF Italy as having said in An in
terview that he feels very friendly
toward the Jugo-Slavs, but that "deci-
sions were reached by France, Great
britain and Italy January 20 which
place definite imprint on the Adriatic
question:"
=, Regarding the United States, Signor
Nitti is quoted as saying:
America is The object of warm re-
gard to me personally. My desire is
to maintain the best possible relations
with the United States now and in the
future, for firmly believe the interests
of the two nations are one and the
same. Italians always have regarded
with the warmest sympathy the ideals
or the American people"

Wilson s Message
Called Xns0Ient'

ROME, Feb. lS-Commenting on
President Wilson'S Adratic note The
Tribuna says:
"president Wilson has flung an over
bearing and insolent challenge to the
will, authority and dignity of the Eu-
ropean powers, constituted in confer
ence for the peace of Europe If the
challenge endures it will annul the in
dependence of the European powers,
nullifying the vitality of all their
ideals, including peace, and placing the
sceptre on the other side of the At
lantic in the hands Of President Wilson
or any other professor succeeding
him."
The "Giornale de Italia attacks
Premier Nitti, saying ne allowed the
opportune moment to pass without
applying the treaty Of London while
President Wilson "was not yet awak-
cned from his long lethargy."
1T is unlikely" the newspaper says,
that Premier Nitti will apply it now,
thus giving President Wilson the i'm
preston that il is enough for him to
frown to make Italy tremble"
America is going through such a
crisis Of production that she
needs European markets as much as
Europe needs her goods, in the opin~
ion Of the "Popo Romano' Urging
United States Senators Lodge, Sher-
man and Knox "to show the strength
of the maj ority OF the Senate in pre-
venting Mr. Wilson's interference in
European affairs" the newspaper adds:
Secretary Lansing resigned TOO
late. He was a stra ightforward, con-
sclentlous and loyal man until lie went
to Paris, where, becoming the blind
instrument of President Wilson. he
lost the esteem of friends and adj
versarics alike. Mr. Lansing. Henry
White and General Bliss were, in fact.
mere marionettes who were moved AT
the pleasure OF the stage manager of
the theater at Versailles. At the
same time Colonel House was en-
trusted with the negotiations Of foreign
AFFAIRS, not for America, but for Presi-
dent Wilson.
"Mr. Lansing, assisted by a very
competent staff, repaired many Presi-
Dental hlunders. He opposed the
league of nations and favored the es-
tabishment of an international tri-
bunal sufficiently strong to pass valid
verdicts. He also differed from Mr..
Wilson on the Russian question, man
dates, the Adriatic dispute and the
Turkish problem. Usurpation of power

"The Daily Mall for instance, says
it is an open secret that the country
owes debt Of gratitude to Lord Grey
for his activities in the matter. and
"The Times' characterizes the denial
as IAN example of verbal auibbling
which inferior intelligences mistake
for diplomacy" and maintains that
though it may be verbally true, it con-

One of the conferees opposed to in
structions for DR.. Butler. in comment
ing on the result of the discussion,
said to a Tribune reporter:
CDR Butler has openly stated he

gates to the Chicago convention, and
we took him at his word. There is Il
pronounced sentiment among the lead
ers here to-day against anything re-
sembling instructions. 1t might be we'll

unit in order to make the weight of
the delegation felt.
but the delegates this year are in
no mood whatsoever to be tied up TO
the candidacy OF a favorite son. whose
chances are, to say the least, not bril-
liant. Much as we admire DR.. Butler,
the most of us are sure he stands no
chance of being nominated at Chicago.
There are many leaders who would not
be bound by Instructions even if the
leaders here to-day and the convention
tomorrow should try to put them over.

he is from New York or any other
state"
The selection of Mrs. Arthur L. Lv-
ermore, chairman of the Women's State
Executive Committee, was warmly com
nlended by the leaders present. II is
believed it will do much to prevent any
clash between Mrs. Florence e. c.
Knapp, the anti-suf'rage leader, of
Syracuse, and Miss Mary Garrett Hay
for recognition at the hands of the
state convention. Mrs Livermore and
Miss Hay are longtime associates in
suffrage and Republican organization
work. Miss Hay some time ago said
She would not contest for a delegate 8

Caillaux Defense Outlined

PARIS, Feb. 1S.-An unusual line of
defense will be adopted by former Pre-
mier Caillaux in his trial, to be re-
sumed Friday. on charges of conspir-
ing to bring about peace unfavorable
to France, according 10 friends of the
accused man.
They declare the basis of his entire
plea will be justification for the
policies which he advocated, his pur-
pose being to draw parallel between
the difficulties of the present economic
situation for France and the results
which he will claim would have fol-
lowed if his policies had been adopted.
