Takes Passive View Similar to
United States on Placing
War Blame.
PEOPLE DEMAND ACTION

PARIS, Jan. 9.-Tne chief burden Of
trying the ex-kalser II he lis extradited
from Holland may fall upon England.
Il was learned from official sources
today that France has decided virtually
TO wash her hands of the prosecution
Of the former German emperor. and
adopt the attitude Of the United States,
leaving the whole matter to England.
France win present no separate DRAFT
Of an Indictment Of the one-time war
lord to the supreme council.
The only draft given to the supreme
council for approval will be that drawn
mp at London So far as known It has
not yet been seen by French officials.
It is expected the indictment will b.
given to the supreme council next week
by Lord Birkenhead, chancellor OF Eng
land, who accompanied the Anglo-Ital-
ian officials to this city from london.
BELIEVE KAISER
WON'T BE TRIED.
In some quarters, even yet, It Is con-
sidered that the possibility OF the for
mer kaiser being placed on trial is ex-
tremely remote. No one has yet been
selected to represent France on the inter
national tribunal, although It is prob
able that Henry Robert, leading crimi-
nal lawyer Of the French bar, would be
chosen as representative Of this country
for the prosecution.
The passive attitude Of the French is
based upon the following:
l. Belief that trial of the former
kaiser would put him In the role Of a
martyr and stir up trouble in Germany.
z In the event Holland refuses to
surrender the refugee the allies have
agreed not to exert pressure and this
would put them in an embarrassing posi-
ticn.
3. There are no presidents establish
ing legal means by which the thai could
be conducted.
FRENCH PEOPLE
DEMAND TRIAL.
However the French are most deter
mined to bring about prosecution OF
German officials guilty Of crimes against
civilization.
When the discussion OF the former
kaiser's trial comes up before the allied
representatives here next week Lord
Birkenhead will advise them upon ques-
lions Of extradition.
Sir Gordon Hewart, attorney general
OF England, who is still working upoh
the final draft of the indictment in Lon
don may come to Paris next week to
Join Lord Birkenhead in enlightening the

Anderson Filling Station Burns.
(DailY Mail. 6th.l


Fire this afternoon about 4.30
o'clock destroyed the gasoline filling
station Of the Petroleum Oil Co. at
the corner Of South Main and River
streets, burned up Buick roadster
belonging to Charles Gambrill and
inflicted severe burns on the arm Of
John e. White, Jr., and Anderson
Dodd, station attendant.
The gasoline and oil about the su-
perstructure Of the station took fire
almost instantaneously, and in few
seconds the small wooden office
building Of the station was in flames.
The fire created considerable smoke
and attracted large crowd to the
scene OF the blaze. The gasoline stOr-
age tank, which buried In the ground
beneath the station, did not take
fire. Had this become ignited 1t
would, no doubt, have exploded and
the fire might have had very disas-
trous consequences.
The fire originated by few drops
of gasoline from the supply hose,
which conveys the liquid from the
pumps to the automobile tanks, drop
ping upon the motor Of Mr.. Gam
brill's car. The supply hose had
some mud in the nozzle, and 1T was
while in the act of cleaning the mud
out Of this pipe that the few drops
Of gas fell upon the motor Of Mr..
Gambrill's machine, igniting in
stantly and starting the fire, which
quickly licked up the car as we'll as
the office structure and burned Mr..
White and Mr.. Dodd.
