Opens at Stuttgart

STUTTGART, March 1s (By The AS

Assembly opened at $3.50 o'clock this
afternoon in the Fine ARTS Building.
1t was presided over by Konstantin
Fehrenbach, who issued the call for
the present session. There was large
attendance Of deputies, especially from
the Socialist parties, and also Of uni
/ formed Reichswehr officers.
President Fehrenbach said that many

bers had not come, while others were

The state president Of Wurtemberg
welcomed the Assembly in the name of
Wirtemberg, after which Gustav
Bauer, the Chancellor, spoke in behalf
Of the government.
The house was closely guarded by
Reichswehr troops, anu armored auto
mobiles patrolled the streets. The first
session was without notable incident.
Chancellor Bauer, in reviewing re-
cent events and describing the origin
Of the instruction, mentioned that
General Won Luettwitz had demanded
the strengthening Of the imperial
forces and preparations for revenge.
Herr Bauer confirmed the fact that
failure of the coup was largely due ia

From The Trtbnne'a Washington Bureau
WASHINGTON, March 18.-Control
Of Germany by the Spartacides or the
Inauguration Of Soviet rule in Berlin is
not expected by officials here who have
been watching the movements in the
revolution in the Central Empire. The
return to power of the Ebert govern
n.ent and speedy putting down Of the
Red" outbreaks are expected.
Official advices received at the State
Department to-day from American
Commissioner Ellis L. Dresel at Berlin
contain the reassuring information
that the activity of the revolutionists
and the radical element has not spread
rapidly. He said some parts Of Berlin
itself were as quiet as they had ever
been.
The opinion is held here that the
new movements Of the Spartacides will
not be effective. The radical Socialists
are not as numerous as they were dur
ing the former outbreaks and little
doubt is felt that their uprising will
be successfully resisted.
1t was pointed out to-day that while
the Ebert government may not have
been wholly satisfactory, it has made
an effort to meet the problems of the
country and has won the admiration of
numerous groups which heretofore have
been antagonistic to organized govern
ment.
While optimism is expressed here by
| officials, no effort was made to fore
cast definitely the outcome Of the dis
turbed conditions in Germany. 1t was
recalled that before the Russian revo-
luton skilled observers right on the
ground had failed to detect evidences
Of the discomfort and no one predicted

DUBLIN, March 18.--Four divisional
commissioners have been appointed for
Ireland. They will become the chief
representatives Of the government and
the highest military authority in each
of the four provinces OF Ulster, Nun
ster, Leinster and Connaught.
The move amounts to a decentraliza-
tion Of the control which has been ex-
ercised from Dublin Castle for the
furtherance of law and order through
out the country. 1t is tightening of
the screws-the provinces have not
been under divisional commissioners
since the late sos, in the days of the
Land League troubles.

commissioners will have charge If all

Fusion Urged by

Oppose Socialism
Time Not Ripe for Launch

Premier Predicts League

From The Tribune's Eusopedn Bureau

LONDON, March 1S.--The British
public shows moro interest in the ef-
forts of Premier Lloyd George to ar
range political fusion than in the
German situation. The Premier's ad-
was the climax Of series Of political
meetings extending through the week.
The consensus is that the time is not
ripe for the launching Of new party
composed Of Conservatives and Union
lists and that the Premier has aban-
doned his plan, Temporarily ar least,
until he has had an opportunity to
judge the reaction.
The Northcliffe press, which is con-
sistently critical of the Premier, char
acterizes the speech to-day as an at
tack on labor. In appealing for union
of Conservatives and Liberals outside
of the Asquith camp the Premier de-
clared that the great work of the fu-
he described the Labor party as So
cialistic He said there was no pos
sibility Of coalition of the Liberals
and labor, and therefore it was the
duty Of the Liberals to fuse themselves
with the Conservatives.
The Premier declared his opposition
to common ownership, which he said
was known in France as communism
and in Russia as Bolshevism. Though
insisting that he was still a Liberal
becaused he believed in liberal prin-
ciples and in freedom, Lloyd George
said the nation must fight Socialism.
He said there was no single party
which itself could obtain a majority
in Parliament.
In addition to his announcement OF
domestic policy, the Premier said the
great International issue would be the
formation Of permanent and power
full league Of nations to prevent war.
Only a few Independent Liberals at
tended the private gathering, but those
Liberals and Conservatives would be
bound to result in advantages for
labor and would encourage Socialism,
which the Premier desired to fight.
Lord Robert Cecil, who is opposed
to the fusion, is collecting a consid-
erablc body of Conservatives behind
him. Several Liberal members OF the
Cabinet are opposed to the Premier's
scheme.
AS expected, most of the Liberal
press as we'll as the Northcliffe organs
and the Conservative Morning Post"
denounced the proposed fusion. Po-
litical observers believe the Premier
will wait for developments before at

A dispatch to the 'Berlingske Ti-

character. During fighting in an attack
upon the Nuremberg railroad station

A telephone message from HAMBURG
to-day said there was violent fighting
between troops and students on the
one side and workmen on tho other
proceeding at Kiel.
The message said the workmen were

that many persons had been killed OF

that the leaders Of the majority parties
have negotiated with the other parties
relative to the holding Of elections in
June, to the election of an imperial Pres
ident by the people and to re0rganiza-

LONDON, March 1s (By Tho AS

dent of the "Nieuwe Rotterdamsche
Courant," Of Rotterdam, is quoted in
a London Times" dispatch from the
Hague as saying in description of
Berlin that the troops Of the old gov
ernment, realizing that they had been
misled, disarmed some Of their officers
and rioting took place in the barracks
The bitterness among the men was so
great when they saw that their exist
ence was in danger that they were
restrained only with great difficulty
from attacking the Baltic troops
brought to Berlin by the Kapp govern
ment.
In the afternoon it became clear to
the people that the rule Of the usurp-
ers had ended. In the reception hall
of the chanceilery. great excitement
prevailed. A number of cars were
leaving with Kapp's followers.
Kapp's daughter, in state Of great
agitation, shouted wildly, "You have
triumphed now, have you not?" Be-
fore any one could reply she turned
round and burst into tears, while he,

OF West Germany

AMSTERDAM, March 1S (By The
Associated Press) Nearly the whole
of western Germany is in the hands Of
extremists, according to dispatches re-
ccived by the "Handelsblad" from its
Berlin correspondent to-day.
In CuXhaven q soviet republic has
been proclaimed. There is Bolshevism
in Saxony and Wurtemorrg, as we'll
as in Mecklenburg, the correspondent
says. Bolshevism also has manifested
itself in the country DISTRICTS it is
added, where many of the owners of
big farms have been expelled from
their properties.
The correspondent further reports
the occupation of military barracks
in Rostock, Mecklenburg-Scnwe by
workingmen, who stormed the place
and then announced they had pro-
claimed soviet republic.
Sharp fighting has occurred between
Elberfeld Rhenish Russia, according
to the Dutch press bureau, says a dis.
patch from The Hague. The Com
munists were defeated and 1000 OF
them fled into the occupied region
where they were disarmed by Entente
troops, the bureau says.
More Soviet Republics Set Up
Soviet republics have been formed
at Dortmund, in Westphalia, and q
Gera, thirty-five miles southwest o.
Leipsic, according to dispatches re-
ceived here. At the latter place, which
formerly was the capital of the princi
pality Of Reuss-Schleiz, here has beer
savage fighting, it Is said.
In the fighting at Dresden fifty per
sons have been killed and 495 wounded
reports state, and the city is isolated
from the rest Of Germany.
Conditions in Berlin were quiet UP I,
an early hour this morning, according
to dispatch received by the German
Legation at The Hague.

been 9 more capable expert minister
than Erzberger.
He contended that the success of
their tactics was sufficient justification
of the governments quitting Berlin.
The whole people had rallied to the
government and called for arms to fight
against reaction. The PanGerman
Fatherland party and men like Colonel
Bauer and General Ludendorff he char
acterized as wire-pullers. Kapp's crime
had thrown the country's recuperation
back months, if not years.
Kapp's accomplices still held sway in
Silesia and East Prussia, but their rule
would be counted by days, the Chan
cellor said.
In opening the sitting Herr Fehren.
bach expressed the thanks of the gov.
ernment to the troops and officials who
had remained loyal and also to the
German people, especially in the South
and West, who had proved their loyalty
to the democratic constitution.
Herr Bauer argued that the impos-
sibie demands of the Versailles Treaty
were largely responsible for the Ma
tionalist agitations. He declared that
the government soon would return to
Berlin and take the severest measures
against the empire wreckers. A meas
ure would be submitted to the Assem-
bly, for the confiscation of the property
of these persons. The imperial force
would be purged at the same time, he
said, and an exact distinction would
have to be drawn between the seducers
and the seduced.
The imperial government, continued
the Chancellor, had never for n mo-
ment sought to negotiate with the in
surgents. They demanded Kapp's un-
conditional capitulation, and DR.. Schif-
fer had expressly declared that Kapp
had capitulated Internationally. The
Chancellor emphasized that none but
Rightists were concerned in the revolt
The National and Peoples parties had
not only not uttered word of condem-
nation, but had even assured the revo-
lutionists of their loyal cooperation
with the constitutional government.
The roll call showed two hundred
Deputies present, among them only
three of the National party and one OF
the Peoples party.

PARIS, March 1s.--1n French opin-
ion the danger in Berlin to-day rests in
the fact that the army Is face to face
with the workers, while all the forces
which might make for peace are un-
able to intervene to save the situation.
Kapp has gone and with him the
other leaders Of the militarists' coup,
but their departure does not automat-
ically remove the troops. Street bat
ties which have taken place in many
Of the larger towns indicate that the
soldiers feel themselves masters of
the day and intend to fight IL their
rule should be contested. Serious af-
trays, such as are reported in Dreden,
show that the fighting has passed out
Of the stage Of local rioting.
The workers are not opposing the
military entirely unorganized. They
are not fully equipped, but war train
Ing placed them on q footing with
veteran soldiers. Moreover they are
not fighting merely to overthrow a re-
gime; they have behind them the nu-
cleus Of soviet organization which
was prepared to assume control Of the
country.
Ebert's Victory May Be Empty
Thus, though Ebert won his fight with
Kapp. his victory is an empty one un-
less he can subdue the parties now
struggling for the possession of Berlin
and other cities. This he may be able to
do, but the governmental position is
likely to remain extremely weak. II
Ebert retains sufficient influence to
prevail upon the military to retire, his
chances Of winning will be brighter
than they are to-day. By the time he
returns to power, however, he may find
the soviets established in many dis
tricts.
Unless something is done quickly the
