PETRoGRAD SUFFERING GROWS.


London, Feb. 4.-Petrograd is de-
scribed as city suffering from famine,
cold. disease and robbery in report just
made by Professor Zeidler, president Of
the Russian Red Cross society.
"Owing to the want of fuel. the capital
is becoming desert" he says. "Only
in few houses are there still some inhabi-
tants and even these generally live in
their kitchens. Famine conditions In
this city are terrible. If the population
had not already accustomed itself to
feeding on what people in normal cir
cumstances never eat at all. they would
have no food whatever. Spotted typhus
and Spanish influenza, with various COM
plications. have put an end to the suf-
ferings Of many unfortunate people.
''The authorities are powerless to guard
public safety. Gangs of robbers are at
work in the deserted quarters of the city
carrying off all that may have been left
after the searches made by the red
army"

LEAGUE ADVOCATES
 CONTROL BY POLES
Would Have Them Take Military
 Supervision of Danzig
INTERNATIONAL COURT UP
Plan as Outlined at Today's Session Differs in Some Respects From That Offered by Elihu Root of the United States.

Geneva Dec. 13.-(By Associated Press)-Military control of Danzig by Poland has been recommended to the council of the league of nations in a report from the military commission. A request from the Polish government alleged that military control of the port of Danzig was necessary to insure the transport of food munitions and raw materials to Poland.
 Separate action by the premiers of France and Great Britain on matters before the assembly of the league of nations are made the subject of sharp comment by the committee on admis- sion of new states. Lord Robert Cecil. representing South Africa; N. w. Rowell of Canada and Dr. Nansen of Norway, agree in criticising the action of these governments in announcing policies regarding such questions as the admission of Armenia through other channels than their representa- tives at the assembly.
 International Court.
 Leon Bourgeois of France has pre- sented a report from the committee on an international court. The plan differs from Elihu Roots plan chiefly in the fact that jurisdiction of the tribunal would be voluntary inst cad of obligatory.
 United States Senator Medill Me- Cormick watched proceedings during this morning session from the press gallery.
 The plan as proposed to the as- sembly by the committee differs in some respects from the plan formu- lated by Elihu Root and his associates last summer. The chief difference is in the matter of Jurisdiction. The committee agreed with the decision of the leagues council at Brussels that it would be impossible to get the necessary number of ratifications by members for plan, permitting an aggrfeved nation to cite another na- ton into court, and it was decided to supstitute a more flexible plan, under which a member may agree or not agree to compulsory arbitration.
 Regret Argentine Plan.
 The proposal of the Argentine dele- gation that the arbitration court at The Hague be abolished it being held that the new court will render decls- ions according to the rules and forms of law, and that an institution or ganized for purely arbitraI decisions will still be required.
 Ratification of the court plan must be by a majority of the members of the league, or 22 states, this being required before the court is brought into being. U

 Court Meets Tomorrow.

S. district court at 10 o'clock Tuesday. Most of the men furnished $500 bonds each.
 Mrs. Joseph Lincoln of Wilson sta tion appeared before the commission CT this afternoon and pleaded not guilty to keeping 8 still. She was bound over to the federal court.
