Berlin, April 16.-Following yes
terday's panic over rumors of an
impending revolution, a sensation
was caused today by discovery of
an alleged plot between military
leaders and Communist representa-
tives for national Bolshevfsm."
Three officials and three civilians
were arrested in a room of the Mn

holding meeting discussing their
pl~ns.

Those taken into custody ware
Capt. Won Bohnstedt, Capt. Won Vieh-
balm, Lieut.. Comdr. Won Altvater,
C-boat commander, and three civil
ians.
At the Ministry Of Defense i: Is
alleged these men planned the over
throw of the government by a mill
tarist-communist revolt.
Capt. Won VIehbahn, who has heen
at the head of one of the branches
of the military secret service worI-
ing against Bolshevism, said he had
brought about the meeting to find
ways and means of improving condi-
tions without the use of force. Capt.
Won Eohnstedt attended at the re-
quest of Minister of Defense Gessler.
These recent developments are
looked upon in some quarters as
election manouevers.

The difficulty in the District
said Senator Thomas, ''is primarily
due to the fact that the Washington
Railway and Electric Company, like
nearly all corporations in the country,
has been permitted to water its stock
until its dropsical condition threatens
its existence. | am informed that the
lines which were consolidated into
the Washington Railway & Electric
Company some years ago were sc.
cured for less than STo.oooooo, and
the stock was at once watered to SIs,-
100000, exclusive of bonds.
Now Grown TO sSS.oOO.oco.
The false capitalization continued
to swell. until now it is something
like 335,ooO.OOo. Because il cannot
make 6 per cent on this false capi-
talization ii has besieged the com.
mission for an increase in fares.
within the last twelve months
traction fares in the District have
been increased so per cent. although
the originaI fare Of cents. under
the charter OF corporation. was pre-
sumably TO be the maximum. IL
will probably be absorbed by the
demands Of the employees, with the
result that we shall have anothsr
request for higher fares. that will
also be granted.
Il protest against this action OF
tho commission. because il IcvieK a
ttaN-an unbearable taN-on tho toll
ers Of the District. in order that tFAy
bankrupt corporation may pay a
dividend on its false capitalization.
II is an added injustice that the
Capital Traction. Company. one OF
the most prosperous OrganiZation.
in the country. will also enjoy -
benefits of the raise.
Give Aid mt Expense OF Public.
The commission is attempting tO
aid a crippled institution by com
pelling the people to pay an addi-
tional chsrge. at the same unduly
increasi 1g the revenues of a pros
porous competitor.
There must be additional legisIa-
tion. The people are without re-
lief unless Congress can grant it.
The Washington Railway and Elec-
trio Company, instead OF being
bolstered on the earnings Of the
public. ought to go into the hands
of a receiver. Any other method
will be sowing the wind and we
will reap the whirIwind. II is no
small thing to require the average
lsboring man or his wife TO pay Is
cents for a ride that cost 10 cents
prior to the war.
Il understand that some OF those
interested in the Washington Rail-
way and Electric Company q few
days ago purchased $4,000 worth
Of the company's stock at 5000.
and now they want a dividend on
$4,000 at 6 per cent.
Wants Lines Tnkes Over.
My resolution calls for an ex-
preston by the Senate on the ques-
tion OF the Federal government or
the government Of the District. TAX
ing over the traction lines and di-
rects the Senate Committee on the
District to formulate legislation TO
that end.
