Ber'nstorN Slated
For Ne1u Cabinet

COPENHAGEN, March 10. - An
agreement has been reached regarding
the reorganization of the German
Cabinet. it is said in advices reaching
here to-day. Dr. Schiller, Vice-Premier
and Minister of Justice, will become
Chancellor, according to this program,
and General Won Seecht will become
Minister of Defense.
Captain Fisher Cuno. general man.
ager of the Hamburg American Steam
ship Line, is slated for the Ministry
of Finance, and Count Won Bernstortf,
former Ambassador to tho United
States, for Minister Of Foreign Affairs.
The report of the agreement for the
Cabinet reorganization and the ac-
companying slate are printed by the
Hamburg "Nachrichten,," which de-
clares its information came from re-
liable quarter.
Leaflets are being circulated in Ham
burg in which the Independent So
cialist party contradicts the rumor
that it intends to proclaim q soviet re-
public there, according to a dispatch
from Hamburg under to-day's date.
The dispatch adds that fighting is
proceeding in the town Of Schleswig,
seventy miles northwest of Hamburg,
between regulars and armed workmen,
and, according to reports at hand in
Hamburg. there seems to be no pros
pcct of the troops surrendering.
The correspondent of the "Politike-"

tary revolt, with the new government
resting on the bayonets.ef old Prussia.
The final scene in Kapp's tragic
comedy was commonplace enough.
When the troop of foreign correspond
ents went Wednesday afternoon to the
Chancel!or's palace to meet the chief
Of the press bureau and get the latest
information they found signs of break
ing up in the great reception room.
Some one observed that the rats We're
quitting the ship.
Soon afterward Kapp was seen leav-
ing the palace in his automobile, in
which he drove rapidly away. Across
the street, at the temporary headquar
ters of the press bureau, the former
chief under the Ebert regime was back
at his desk. He announced that kapp
and Won Luettwtz had surrendered
fatty and unconditionally.
Kapp utilized the movement among
the Communists and independents as
a pretext for quitting his post in Ber-
lin. The distinct impression prevails
now that this. movement against Kapp
had been grossly magntied to serve the
purpose of stalking horse. Thus ends
the adventure which one of Berlin's
chief bankers characterized as 1.-The
greatest piece of donkey antics the cap
ital has ever seem" and the laugh again
is on the German people.

men. questioning travellers and deliv
ering passes in the name of some
local workmen's association, says the
Temps"
The business men are reported as as
serting that the tendency toward So
vietism is undeniable. They say. how
ever, there is total lack of organiza-
ton and that it is impossible to state
if the feeling will develop or die. The
absence Of a desire for work on the
part of these workmen. declaring that
German manufacturers with whom
they talked confirmed these observa-
tioNs.
Another disturbance in front of the
Hotel Adlon to-day is reported in a
dispatch reaching here from Berlin.
This message, coming from a source
considered extremely reliable: says sew
eral persons were killed in disorders
in the AlexanderpIatz at IL o'clock
this morning.
A report that the Berlin Socialists
are drawing up AN 11-point charter.
which amounts to the establishment Of
a soviet government, is also given. Dr..
Schiller, Minister of Justice, believes
the situation serious but not hopeless.
The situation in Berlin late this af-
ternoon was such as to indicate that the
future depended on solution Of the
general strike. according to advices re-
ceived here. Negotiations for settle
ment of the labor troubles were still
progressing and had the effect Of keep
ing the situation fairly quiet. The
exact demands of the workmen are un-
known, but they are believed to include
withdrawal of the few remaining Kapr
troops, naturalization of the coal mines
and the resignation of President Ebert
News reaching the German delegation
here shows the situation is most serious
in the Ruhr district, particularly
around Essen, where there is much
fighting with Spartacists. The same
situation also is reported in Dusse OFF.

KnpD's Adventure
Backed by Bluff
By William c. Dreher


Special Cable TO The Trs6teac
copyright, 1920. New York Tribune lrc.)
BERLIN. March 19.-The adventure
of DR.. Wolfgang kapp was the most
palpablc case Of political buccaneering
yet known in any great civilized state.
For several days kapp's followers
played a strong game Of bluff, but it
grew hourly more evident almost from
the first day Of the attempted coup
d'etat that Kapp and General Won
Luettwitz had no substantial support
outside Of the military.
Kapp evidently overestimated the cx-
tent and nature of the discomfort with
the Ebert government. There has been
a visible growth in that discomfort in
the past six months, and the best
friends of the Ebert administration ad-
nit its various mistakes and general
weakness. The great land owners for
many months have been agitating
against restriction OF food prices. and
the Erzberger trial was used as the
most damaging propaganda against
Ebert's government. These forces
caused a marked drift toward the Con-
servative party, but Kapp made his
capital error in assuming that this
drift had reached the dimensions and

100 Killed, Many
Wounded, in Berlin,

LONDON. March 10 lBy The Asso-
ciated Press ).-One hundred persons
were killed and more than 200 others
wounded in collisions in various quar-
ters of Berlin Thursday, according to
advices from the German capital re-
ceived by way of Copenhagen. Eye
witnesses of occurrences which took
place outside the town hall relate dis
orders, and it is declared that in the
suburb of Sehoeneberg fifteen officers
Of the Baltic troops were literally
trampled to death by the crowd.
One thousand persons have been
killed at Kicl, according to reports re-
ceived by way of Coblenz. The reports
have not been confirmed.
A dispatch from Stuttgart states the
Baltic troops retiring from Berlin have
intrenched themselves at the Zoolog-
ical Gardens and at Charlottenburg, on
the west side of Berlin.
Dispatches from the German capital
state that persons arriving in Berlin
by automobile from points in south
Germany report that the radical labor
elements arc everywhere in charge in
the important centers. These travel
crs say that the workers are not only
armed, but are besieging the govern
ment troops in their own barracks at
many points in southwestern and cen
trail Germany, and that soviet govern
ments have been installed in several
cities.
The Exchange Telegraph issues re.
port to the effect that telephone
message from Berlin says that hun
dred persons were killed in the fight
ing at the Brandenburg Gate in Br-
lin. and that the dining room Of the
Hotel Adlon was completely destroyed
by machine gun fire.
According TO the same authority
Russian Bolshevist forces are advanc
ing from the Russian frontier.
Two weeks before the revolt in Ber
lin, says wireless dispatch from Mos
COW. a>secret conference was held il
Berlin between the supporters of Dr.
Wolfgang Kapp and representatives o
the Russian "Black Hundreds" the lat
ter including Alexander j. Guchkof
and Prince Volconsk.
Private advices from Paris say tina
the Ebert government has asked thu
Allies to permit it to send German
troops to put down Bolshevism in parts
Of the neutral zone which was estab
lished by the peace treaty and in which
the Germans were rot to have troops
There is no intimation of what actor
the Allies will take in this matter.

1ne Baltic troops, which made such
sanguinary departure from the city,
are accused of taking a leading part
IN the agitation, and numerous melting
handblls are attributed to them.
Among the anti-Semitic street speakers
were Baltic officers and enlisted men.
Since the first German revolution in
November. 1915 it has been estimated
that about $4,000 Jews from Russia,
Poland. Galica and East Prussia have
come to Berlin. The Jewish popula-
ton Of the capital now is estimated at
100000 persons. The great influx of
Jews stirred up feeling because of the
widespread circulation of reports that
many of the Jews were speculating in
foodstuffs and other necessities, and
also operating as money lenders.
The Jews are generally keeping off
the streets to-day. The recrudescence
of the anti-Jewish movement is at
tributed by some to the attempts of
the Conservatives to combat the grow
ing strength of the radical elements,
many leaders of which are Jews.

Foch Demands
Action to Curb
German Peril
Continued from pass enc

envision the possibility Of Intervention
in Germany until the Turkish prcb-
lem is nearer solution.
Drastic Action Advocated
Nevertheless. Great Britain mas
given France her assurance that she
will do anything necessary to uphold
the strict fu!fillment of the Versailles
Treaty. Upon the basis that the revo-
luton in Berlin is prima facie evidence
that the treaty will not be honored by
Germany, France is advocating drastic
action.
The "Temps" says: "We must now
dismiss the idea OF rnis being a war
between the democratic forces OF the
Ebert government and the usurpers.
for the battle has degenerated into one
between the new dictatorship and the
commune. 1t is neither in the interest
Of the Allies nor in the interest of the
German people that things should be
allowed to take this turn. The Allies
need solvent and peaceful Germany
II by chance she became Bolshevist
she would cease TO be solvent. And il,
as is infinitely more probable, the
mlitarism back to power, Germany
twill cease. sooner or later, to be peace
full"
In the echo de Paris" Charles Bon
nefou, telegraphing from Mavence,
gives the following unfattering picture
of the Stuttgart forces: The Ebert
Bauer government is composed Of
dupes Ike Noske and poltroons like
Hermann Mueller. 1t allows itself to
be led by the nose by those VINO be-
trayed it. but this feeble government is
not reactionary. It implores our ad-
vice. our moral support; it is afraid.
it hesitates. and each and every one
of its members is fighting to save his
skin. The Entente has a right to speak
at the moment when it will most likely
be listened to, and it's duty is to act
to prevent the triumph of military re-
action"
The "Matin" also joins the interven-
zionist refrain, demanding the setting
up of a German Cabinet which will owe
its existence to the Entente
"Le Journal des Debats" almost alone
raises its voice against interventionis It
ideas, pointing out that those who
favor intervention are the same per-
sons who deplore the occupation by
the Allies Of Constantinople and other
strategic positions on the Bosporus.
"If order is desirable in Germany" "Le
journal des Debats" says. "it is no less
so in the Orient To help form a
Cabinet which owes its existence. to
u.s. means governing Germany from the
outside. This would coalesce all the
chauvinist or simply nationalist ese-
menta against such Cabinet Heaven

Cabinet which owes its existence to US.
1t would concentrate maximum un-
popularity and we would be obliged. to
enable it to live, successively to sac

The grating, which had been replaced,
was again torn down by the rush Of
the crowd to escape the bullets. This
time larger number of casualties re-
suited, fifteen wounded being brought
into the hotel from the Unter den
Linden and Wilhelmstrasse entrances.
Three Of these wounded persons died
later. Documents found in the pockets

city trouble had been in the air. The
attitude Of the crowds that had con-
gregated behind the barbed wire barri-
cades in Inter der Linden was menac-
ing even before the troops moved, as
they stood with their equipment packed
ready for departure and formed into
line in the Wilhelmstrasse in front of
the government buildings, where they
had been quartered. When, after an
hours delay, the word finally was
given to the troops to march, the crowd
began finging taunts at the troopers
hop hnv
Inter der Linden was solidly banked
en- both sides with people, and through
this lane the long line of marching
field guns, their trucks mounting ma
chine guns and fame throwers. The
soldiers were in no mood for derision
en- the part Of the spectators, and they
replied with sarcastic flings and bitter
retorts. Some Of the soldiers un-
buckled their hand grenades from their
belts and brandished them as if to
throw them. at which the crowd would
scatter wildly, only to return to con-
tinue jeering at other detachments.
Woman Starts Uproar
The crowd in front of the Adlon
steadily increased and hostile eyes were
turned up to the windows where the
guests silently looked on. When one
OF the women began waving her
handkerchief mutter Of anger that
quickly rose to roar of disapproval

section of the country from the "Reds." !"
All Germany, with the exception Of
the southern states, is rebellious, and
Berlin is "barrel of gunpowder which
may be ignited at any time" says a
Berlin dispatch to the Exchange Tele-
graph Company, filed at the German
capital yesterday.
Other dispatches received by way of
Copenhagen state that hundreds of per-
sons have been killed in the mining
districts of Germany in collisions be-
tween miners and troops. Telegrams
from the big towns in Germany show
that fighting is proceeding in nearly all
the thickly populated areas where SOL
diers and workers are opposed.
Spartacists Hold Rostock
In Brunswick there is much disorder,
accompanied by pillaging of shops. In
Leipsic, according to the advices, there
was street fighting throughout yester-
day. Rostock, in Mecklenberg- -Schwe rim,
is in the hands of the opartacists, but
their position is said to be precarious.

A bomb exploded outside the British
Embassy in Berlin last night as a
naval division was marching past, it is
reported from the German capital. Sew

the embassy apparently suffered no

British Charge d'Affaires at Berlin, say
there is nothing to suggest that the

Amnesty must not be granted Cen

There must be extensive participa-

These conditions are said to have

The first stipulation had been fulfilled

have announced that the strike must

other Socialist organizations. and it is
impossible as yet to say which side
