PLOT TO REGAIN THRONE FoILED BY HUNGARIAN Former Emperor Attempted to Cross Frontier Under
 False Passport.
Budapest, Fob. II (By The ASS0-

ciated Press s-o-Circun1stantia1 details have been revealed of a plot by which it is alleged former Elm peror Charles made futile attempt to enter Hun gary under a false passport and re- establish himself upon the throne.
 Documentary evidence said to be in the hands of the government indi- cates that it had been planned for the eX-em peror to cross the Austrian frontier under the name of Kaspar Kovacs, accompanied by three other persons whose identity has not been definitely established. Then he was to proclaim his return with the ex- pectation that his former Subjects would support him, it is declared.
 It is alleged that the plot was ranged by Colonel Lehar, who has just been named governor of West Hungary, and by Minister Benitcky, the latter having attem pted, it is serted, to have the passports vised. The Swiss consul to whom application was made, however, recognized the photograph of the ex-emperor, it is said, and reported the matter to the authorities.

Antedate the War.

The disasreenents between the department even antedate the entry of the United States into the war. The relations between the two men almost reached the breaking point early in 1917 when Mr. Lansing issued his eel ebrated- stat sment saying the United States was daily being drawn nearer and the By some, it taken to forecast the entry of the United States. The president made every effort to overtake the statement after it had been given out at the state department but it was possible.
 When Mir. Lansing went as a mem- Der of the American delegation to Paris more differences developed. With other members of the American mission he was not in accord with the presidents ideas of making the treaty of peace and the covenant of the league of nations one anQ the same inSeparable document. It was MT. Lansing's idea that such 8 plan would delay the ratification of peace treaty and in this he supported by Henry White and E. M. House.
 It may be said with a great degree of authority that while the president and MT. Lansing were together III Paris other differences of more than minor nature developed and this is confirmed by the reference which the letters.
 Break Over Treaty.
 When President Wilson went back to Paris last March and found that during his absence in the United States MT. Lansing and the others of the American mission had agreed, ten tatively at least, to have the peace terms and the league of nations cove nant separated, the situation came very near breaking point and prob ably was avoided only because the president thought it more important not to let European statesmen see a split in the American peace delega- ton. While MT. Lansing probably saw and conferred with the president in Paris as much as any other members of the American mission it was matter of remark that he saw him very little.
 However. the incident which came nearer causing a break than any other was the sensational testimony of Will lian1t c. Buliitt, one of the experts at tached to the American peace mission, before the senate foreign relations committee. Bullitt, as will be recalled, reading from 8 diary, quoted Secre- IdfN Lansing as naNlnS IoId nm he was out of sympathy with the league of nations covenant and as predicting that the treaty would fail if the Am erican people ever learned of it's full import.
 No Denial From Secretary. MT. Lansing, obviously in 8 very difficult position. did not repldiate Bullitt's statements although it was m om entarily expected in Washin gton that he either would repudiate them or resign his office. President Wilson was at the time on his speaking tour in the west. To say that he was upset by Bullitt's story and his quotations of the secretary of state puts it mild ". Officials in the presidential party who knew the workings of the presi- dents mind expected to see the secre- tarN's resisnat tion asked for when the tContinued on Fifth Page)
