Helsingfors, Jan 22-The net re-
suit Of the conference of representa-
tives of Esthonia, Letvia, Lithuania
and Poland, which has been in pro-
gress here, is the appointment of a
defensive alliance against soviet Rus
sin. The question of peace with the
Bolsheviki is said not even to have been
discussed Whether it will be consid-
cred later will depend upon the lead
of the allies, to whom the participants
of the conference, with the possible ex-
ception of Lithuania. look for guild
ance.
Apparently the differences between
Lithuania and Poland are so irrecon-
cilabIe that the former will not consent
TO be Il party to any alliance including
Poland. 1t Is learned that Lithuania
at the outset of the conference. pro-
posed an alliance of Esthonia, Letvia
and I.ithuania against Poland. The
Esthonians replied that they were not
empowered to consider such a propos-
u
After that Lithuania did not partici-
pate in the conference. except as an OBJ
server
According to the Letvian and Polish
delegates, Lithuania is on the point of
linking up with Germany. as well as
concluding an armistice with soviet
Russia, but. as a result of the change
in the political situation in France and
the reported growing British influence
in Poland, they completely modified
their attitude.
The lender of the Polish delegation,
Varsil Ievski, said to the correspond
ent:
Poland does not wish to attack So
Wet Russia without mandate from
the allies"
The Esthonians, who continually
have expressed pessimism regarding
the outcome of the conference, are re-
turning to Dorpat greatly heartened
by the decision for the renewal of trad
ing with Russia. AS the Esthonians
calculated, the conference strength
ened their position at Dorpat. The
Bolsheviki. alive to the possibilities OF
the proposed defensive alliance, have
announced. according to reports, their
readiness to accept certain important
features of Esthonian peace terms.
The Firms played passive part in
the conference but declare their salts
faction with the results.

HOLLAND Will
PROTECT KAISER
DUTCH WILL NOT FORCE KAISER
TO LEAVE HOLLAND,
is ANSWER.
NOT PARTY TO TREATY
HOLLAND DOES NOT FEEL 1T
is BOUND TO DELIVER
CRIMINAL.

Paris. Jan. 24.=The demand of the
entente powers that Holland deliver
up to them former Emperor William of
Germany. that he may be tried for a
supreme offense against international
morality and the sanctity of treaties,
has been refused by Holland.
In note delivered to the foreign
office by the Dutch minister, Holland
takes the ground that the Dutch gov
ernment is not a party to the peace
treaty which condemned William Ho-
henzollern, and that it can not recog-
nlze as an international duty the neces-
sity to associate itself with this act of
high International policy of the pow
ers"
1t declares also that the constituent
laws of the kingdom and the tradition
of the country, always Il ground for
refuge for the vanquished in interna-
tional conflicts, will not permit the gov
ernment to defer to the wishes of the
entente by Withdrawing from the for
mer emperor the benefit of its laws
and tradition. The declaration is made
that the people of the Netherlands can
not betray the faith of those who have
confided themselves TO Hollands free
Institutions.
Following is the reply of the Meth
erlands government to the entente:
BY verbal note, dated Jan. 10, 1920
given to the envoy of the queen al
Paris. the powers, referring to article
2227 of the treaty at Versailles, demanc
that the government of Holland givs
into their hands William of Hohenzol
lern, former emperor of Germany, Sc
that he may be tried.
"The government of the queen
moved by imprescriptable reasons, can
not view the question raised by the de
mands of the powers except from this
point of view of Its own duty. 1t was
absolutely unconnected with the origin
of the war and has maintained. and no
without difficulty, its neutrality TO tbs
end. 1t finds itself, then, face to fac'
with facts of the war in position diff
ferent from that of the powers.
1.-THE government of the queen can
not admit, in the present case, any 9th
er duty than that imposed upon it b,
the laws of the kingdom and nationa
tradition.
Now, neither the constituent laws
OF the kingdom, which are based upor
the principles of law universally rec
ognized, nor a respectable secular ira
dition, which has made this country
always ground of refuge for the van
quished in international conflicts, per
init the government of Holland to de
fer to the desire of the powers by with
drawing from the former emperor thu
benefit of its laws and this tradition.
Justice and national honor, Of
which respect is a sacred duty. oppose
this. The Netherlands people, moved
by the sentiments to which in histor,
the world has done justice, could no
betray the faith of those who have
cohfided themselves to their free in
stitutions.
