MOVEMENT FOR
 NEW STATE IN
 TRANS-CAUCASlA

Warsaw, July 27.-A strong move ment designed to create large Ma homedan state in tranS-CaucaSla, eA- tending from the Caspian sea to Erzerura has been started recently according to word received here. It is designed to make the new state a tateHite of Turkey. A purely na- tionad idea is said to be behind this movement and which has nothing in common with Belshevism, according to reports excepting dislike for the Allies.
 It is said Lenine, the Russian Pre- nrier and Mustapha Kennel Pasha, Turkish Nationalist leader, both have the same aisn-to attack Great Britain But while Kennel cannot ad- init Moscow's supremacy over Ar menia and the Mahamedan Caucasus, Lenine does not wish to see creation of a large Turkish state in the Cau- caSus-
 Consequently though Allies, the two leaders are really rivals.

wealth at present in neutral coun-
tries, and to state how Germany
plans to compensate her citizens for
property sequestrated and liquida-
ted abroad.
1t is suggested that German
wealth in neutral countries has been
accumulated by the practices of Ger
man firms shipping goods at cost or
an actual loss to associates in neu-
tral countries. In considering depre-
ciated exchange, allied experts have
asked the Germans if they do not
profit from the low value of the mark
to the extent that their labor is not
paid propQrtionately to the compen-
sation of labor in countries where ex-
change values are higher.
May Keep Shipping.
Delegates have been pledged to Sc
crecy, but there is general impress
sion they will recommend that their
governments permit Germany to
keep some of the $4,000 tons of
shipping she was ordered to surren-
der under the Versailles treaty. The
United States is still regarded as the
only banker who can furnish Ger
many with the necessary credit. Ger
mans desire that property owned by
their nationals be returned to its
owners. Some of the allies, how
ever, are in favor of having it used
as a basis of credit, although the
amount of Germany property in Am
erica would probably be insufficient
to meet the needs of Germany at the
present time.
The American dollar is mentioned
frequently as a desirable standard in
expressing reparation figures. 1t is
impossible for Germany to export
gold marks, and the dollar is consid-
cred the most stable unit at present.
British shipping and liquidation
exports arrived here last night for
final conferences with the Germans

RECOMMEND LENIENCY
FOR THE GERMANS
hun i.ed Billion Mars in Gold is the
Amount Delegates think Germany
Should Pay-Is Below Sum
Fixed by Versailles
Treaty.

Brussels, Dec. 23.-Payment by
Germany of 1OO,OOO,OOO,OOO marks
in gold remains the basis upon which
experts and delegates to the second
financial conference in session here,
are working. This amount, although
far below what was authorized by
the treaty of Versailles is consider
ed by them collectible only on condi-
tion that Germany is helped along
the lines suggested by the German
delegates.
Allied experts, in secret individual
reports, the substance of which has
come to light, recognizing Germany's
real necessities and delegates gener-
ally are impressed by arguments that
Germany is an insolvent creditor
who must be maintained as grow
ing concern. The extent to which
strict fulfllment of the Versailles
treaty may be waived, however, de-
pends upon the allied governments,
before which recommendations have
been made by the various delegations.
Virtually none of the delegates be-
lieve the treaty can be executed lit
orally and allied experts agree with
the Germans that reparations must
be paid chiefly in kind. Some cash,
however, vii be demanded after a
year or two, if not Immediately.

Today's meeting was really in pre-
paratioa for the recess which will be
taken until January 10. Allied dele
gates planned to meet apart this af-
ternoon for the purpose of exchang-
ing views and reaching common ac-
cord which will be reflected in re-
ports to their governments.

ing on the list of questions submit
ted by the allies, which covers wide
range. 1t is inferred from some of
the questions that the allied experts
believe indirect taxation in Germany
is not high enough, the Germans be-
.ng asked whether their taxes on al
cohol, beer, tobacco and sugar are as
high as those on the same products

questions concern the German finan-
clal policy relative to taxation of
wealthy citizens and possible tax in

The German representatives have

German wealth at present in neutral
countries, and to state how Germany
plans to compensate her citizens for

Washington. - Details of the much
heralded uprisings in the Mohamme-

favor Of the Turkish Nationalist ana
Bolsheviki were reported here in off,
cial advices.
The reports confirm advices as to
Moscow and Munich conferences re-
ceived recently by the State Depart

ferred with Spartacists and BOlsheviki
at Munich, while representatives from
India, Afghansitan, Persia, India, AZ
erbeijhan and Georgia met Turkish
Nationalists and Lenine, the BOlshs-
vik leader, at Moscow.
Plans for uprising in the Moham-
medan world coincide with Bolshi-

said to have been laid at these meet
ings. A force of 100000 troops COM
manded by General Kuropatkin was
promised the Mohammedan world by
Lenine at Moscow, it has been re-

Following the two conferences a
training school was established at
Moscow for representatives OF the
Turkish Nationalist, according to the
official dispatchers. From this school
after a rigorous course of instruction
groups of from 10 to 20 and so of the
