PROMINENT GERMANS
.SWUGGLE MONEY
Have Taken As Much as 250,oo0,0 ,00C
Marks Into Holland, Says For
mer German Chancellor
Mueller.

Berlin Nov. 23.--One hundred emf
nent persons, among them Crown Prin.
cess Cecilie, Prince Eitel Friedrich
Prince August Wilhelm, the late Prince
Joachim, Count Radolin and Princess
Wanda Radziwill, have smuggled to
Holland money aggregating 250,000,O00
marks, asserted Hermann Mueller, for
mer German chancellor, in the Reich
stag day. He interpellated the gov
ernment relative to the activities of
the firm of Cruiser and Phillipson
bankers, which is declared to have car,
ried on extensive smuggling.
1t was asserted that the head of the
banking firm had been enrolled in the
German army and was on good terms
with the nobility, and that the con-
cern had been known publicly as a
special firm forithe carrying on of con-
traband in goods and capital"
Il ask the government" said the
former chancellor, what has been
done in the case of the banking firm
of Sinner, Borghland and company,
which has been accused of. smuggling.
| demand that people known as sm'ig-
glers should be severely punished"
Replying to the Interpolation, DR..
Wirth, minister of finance, said the
public prosecutor had not concluded
his investigation of Sinner, Borghland
and company and so he was unable to
give detailed information. But he said
the banking houses mentioned were
evidently engaged in smuggling CAPT
tai out of the country.
"The government" he continued,
Learned few days ago that millions
of its cash and securities were stand
ing to the credit of German subjects
with the firm of Cruiser and Phillip
son in Amsterdam and that these mil
lions had gone there through an in
termediary in contravention of Ger
man laws. The public prosecutor
started an inquiry into the flight of
this capital and the FIRMS books have
been seized Proceedings are pending
against number of persons who sent
money to Holland, but | am unable to
give exact details. 1t is correct that
among the persons having accounts
with Cruiser, Phillipson and company
are members of prineely houses and
some of the Hohenzollern family.
when one reads the list of people
who did business with this bank he
must blush with shame. II has made
strange impression to learn that
princely personages employed the Crus-
ser firm as letter bearer. Every ef-
fort was made to apprehend Cruiser
by surrounding his office, but he was
warned and succeeded in escaping"
Professor Kahl, a member of the
German peoples party, declared Herr
Mueller was "trving to throw mud
on the Hohenzollerns and the mon
archy." He asserted Cruiser had only
once visited Crown Princess Ceeilie in
order to hand her letter from the
crown prince.

STUDENTS PAY RESPECTS
To D. R. Hendrick, Who Was Killed in
Boxing Match.

|. Burlington, Nov. 23.-The expected
investigation into the death of Donald
D. Hendrick, the student who died as
the result of fall sustained in box
ing match Saturday evening at the
university gymnasium, has not YET ma
teralized. States Attorney Martin is
uncommunicative concerning it, but it
is generally thought that he will initi-
ate some sort of an investigation.
The entire male student body turned
out yesterday morning 10 pay their
last respects to their dead college mate.
Colonel Holden had charge Of the aca-
demic students, who met in front of the
gymnasium TO march downtown, while
Major Larned took charge of the medi-
cal students Both bodies met at the
corner of Bank street and Winooski
avenue and proceeded together to the
undertaking parlors of t. w. Gurney,
where the funeral services were then
being held. From there they formed
the escort for the motor hearse as far
as Battery park.
In the afternoon a mass meeting of
the men students was held at which
time a set of resolutions were drawn
up to be sent to the parents of the
dead man.

Dublin. Nov. % (By the Associated
| Press All train service in and out Of
Dublin was resumed to-day after tffe
military had made minute search OF
the city during the night for suspects
in connection with Sundays assassi-
nations. Before the curfew hour several
streets were surrounded by barbed
wire barriers and the soldiers examined
all persons passing.
Strong military patrols manned ev-
cry bridge and road running out Of
the city during the night. All avenues
Of egress and ingress were closed and
even persons holding permits were not
allowed to pass the lines. Reports in
dicated that virtually the whole mill
tary establishment in this district of
Ireland was employed in maintaining
this Gordon

ing this work went on and reports
came in quick succession of scores of
raids, which were attended by more
than the usual amount of incidental
clashes. II seemed certain that many
casualties had marked the days ac-
tivity. Seaching parties were accom-
panied by armored cars with machine
guns.
The thoroughness with which the
Gordon abont the city was drawn and
raids conducted led those in close
touch with the situation to believe the
military authorities were determined
to arrest the parties responsible for
the murder Of Ia officers on Sunday.
Streets in the downtown section of
Dublin were thickly populated early in
the evening by small knots of citi-
zens who were discussing the situation
and expressing fear that the reign of
terror had not endeds As a consequence
Of the advancement Of the curfew
hour TO 10 o'clock, however, the crowds
soon dwindled and little after q
o'clock there was scarcely person
abroad
An atmosphere of distrust and sus-
picion was noticeable on every hand
yesterday and last night. Travellers on
trains, pedestrians in the streets and
loungers in hotel lobbies showed re-
luctance to venture any opinions rela
tive to the possible consequences of
Sundays tragic events. Above all, no
one would give any indication as to
his personal sympathies. II was uni
versally agreed, however, that the stu
alton was most delicate and the spark
which might produce the long feared
confisgration was momentsrily eX-
pected.

INTERVENTION
IS IN DISPUTE
League of Nations Was Elk
pected to Have Clash
Over Resolution
CALLING FOR MOVE
IN ARMENIA CASE
The Expected Debate May
Develop Further
Differences

Geneva, Nov. % (By the Associated
Pressl-A clash between the council
and the assembly of the league OF ma :
tions on the question of carrying out
the assembly's resolution Of yesterday
for Intervention i'll the Armenian situa-
tion loomed up as possibility as the
assembly met to-day
1t was thoughtEth the failure Of
the council of the league to act last
night on the Viviani resolution, for in
terrvention, passed by the assembly
yesterday, might provoke another de-
bate on Armenia and raise the entire
question of the relations of the council
and the assembly.
The respective powers of these bodies
are looming as one of, the biggest ques-
tions before the assembly The clash
on this subject would naturally come
in discussion of the report of the or
ganization commission in regular
course, but it could easily be precipi-
tated by refusal of the council to
carry out any resolution of the as
sembly.
After the meeting of the council last
night, which failed TO take action with
regard to the Armenian resolution,
the attitude OF Arthur J. Balfour was
taken TO indicate that he was in no
hurry to urge the council to take ac'
tion.
The makeup of the committee to
examine the details of the eventual in
terventionspf the league in the Armen-
ian situation was announced by the
chairman of the assembly of the
league at to-day's session. The com
mittee comprises Lord Robert Cecil,
Senator Henri La Fontaine of Belgium,
DIR. Fridtiof Nansen OF Norway, Hon
orio Pueyrredon of Argentina, Rene
yiviani of France and Signor Sehazi Of
Italy.
The subject of revision of the coven
ant Of the league came up again at

BOSTON DOCKS
OVERRUN BY
GREAT TIDE
Shipping Could Not Make
Their Docks Because of
Highest Tide of Year
Driven By Wind Which
Reached Velocity of 60
Miles an Hour.

Boston. Nov. 23.--A tide which
backed by an easterly gale, attained
a rise of II feet, ran over on the wa.
terfront to-day, brought confusion to
shipping at anchor near leeward piers
and caused minor washouts on rail
road tracks along the shore. 1t was
the highest tide of the year and the
stifTest gale The wind reached a
velocity OF 60 miles an hour on har-
hor gauges, and became freighten with
rain.
0nle three vessels approached the
port during the forenoon, and none OF
tllese could dock under the conditions.
The ocean freighter Oxonian was
forced to anchor at quarantine, the
port physician being unable to board
her because of the rough water and
|. the Malo. returning from the tropics,
and the Everett, a collier, anchored in
the stream, with wind too high and
seas too heavy to permit them to
dock
off the fish pier on the South Boston
waterfront. three gasoline hulks were
torn loose by the storm and cast
against other shipping or on the shore.
The barge Sauci crashed into the
steam trawler Foam, staving in the
formers side Schooners went adrift
from several anchorages, and the few
remaining yachts in the water bobbed
about like so many corks.
The tide showed under wharyes with
such force that plankings were forced
of. but the ebb came shortly after
wards and serious damage was
averted.
Rowboats displaced automobiles as
conveyances ON Winthrop thoroughfares
this morning, The sea broke over the
wall there, the waves reaching a
height of 40 and 80 feet, and inundat-
ing the streets adjacent to the shore.
Houses were flooded, -extinguishing fur
mace fires and causing trouble in cleo
tricsl circuits. At Winthrop beach a
new pier was destroyed and conditions
were so bad that school sessions were
abandoned for the day.
