Will Come Next.

Paris, Jan. ALL fortune has
attended statesmen intimately as

Great Britain. according to a news
paper article published here.
Lloyd George was 80 convinced
George Clemenceau would be the
next president of the French repub-

Therefore, when he heard of the
election Of Paul Deschanel as pres

pressing his astonishment.
In conversation with member of
the chamber Of deputies, the British
premier is said to have expressed
an opinion that the peace treaty
was hard luck for any one having
had a hand in it."
"Yes," the deputy Is quoted as
replying, premier Orlando is out
of Office, Premier Clemenceau is

Wilson has met with reverses in
Washington. Only you have been
spared"
"Yes, and in less than six months
it will be my turn" is the reply at

Holland r Refuses to Become
Party to the Kaiser's Trial
While It Remains a Neutral

nected with the origin of the war
and has maintained, and not with
out difficulty, its neutrality to the
end. 1t finds itself then face to
face with facts Of the war and in
a position different from that Of the
powers.
Won't BE Party to Trial.
1T rejects with energy all sus-
plcion of wishing to cover with its
sovereign right and its moral au-
thority violations of the essential
principles Of the solidarity of ma
tions, but it cannot recognize an
international duty to associate
itself with this act of high inter-
national policy of the powers.
If in the future there should be
instituted by the Society of Nations
an International jurisdiction COM
petent to Judge in case of war
deeds, qualified as crimes and SUBJ
mitted to its jurisdiction by statute
antedating the acts committed. it
would be fit for Holland to associ-
ate herself with the new regime.
"The government Of the queen
cannot admit in the present case
any other duty than that imposed
upon it by the laws of the kingdom
and national tradition.
Refuses to Give Up Kaiser.
Nov. neither the constituent
laws of the kingdom, which are
based upon the principles of law
universally recognized, nor a re-
spectacle secular tradition which
has made this country always a
ground of refuge for the vanquish-
ed in international conflicts, per-
NIT the government of Holland to
defer to the desire of the powers
by withdrawing from the former
emperor the benefit of its laws and
this tradition.
Justice and national honor, oi
which respect Is sacred duty, op-
pose this. The Netherlands peo-
pie, moved by the sentiments te
which IN history the world has
done Justice, could not betray the
faith of those who have confided
themselves to their free institu.
tions.
THE government of the queer
is pleased to believe that the pow
ers will recognize the good grounds
of these considerations, which rise
above any consideration Of person
alities and which seem to it sc
peremptory that they could no
reasonably give rise to wrong in
terpretations."

Paris, Jan. A.-Following IS the
text of the reply of the Dutch koy-
ernment to the demand OF the ~
lies for the extradition OF the ex-
kaiser:
by verbal note, dated Jan. Is.

queen at Paris, the power, refer
ring to article 227 of the treaty OF
Versailles. demand that the gov
ernment of Holland give into their
hands william of Hohenzollern.
former emperor of Germany, so
that he may be tried.
Supporting this demand, they
observe that if the former emperor
had remained in Germany the Ger
man government would, under the
terms of article 228 of the treaty
of peace, have been obliged to de-
liver him.
Blame Placed on Kaiser.
an citing as premeditated viola
tions of international treaties, as
well as a systematic disregard OF
the most sacred rights of man, a
number of acts committed during
the war by Germs- authority, the
powers place the responsibility, at
least morally, upon the former en-
perOr.
They express the opinion that
Holland would not fulfill her inter-
national duty il she refused to as
sociate herself with them within
the limit Of her ability, to pursue
or at least not to impede the pun
ishment Of crimes committed.
They emphasize the special
character of their demands, which
contemplate not juridicial accus-
alton but an act of high interna-
tional policy and they make an ap-
peal to Hollands respect of law
and love Of justice not to cover
with her moral authority violation
by Germany of the essential prin-
ciples of the solidarity of the ma
tions.
Not q Party to Treaty.
.'The queen has the honor to OBJ
serve. first, that obligations which
for Germany could have resulted
from article 228 Of the treaty OF
peace cannot serve to determine
the duty Of Holland which is not
a party to the treaty.
THE government of the queen
moved by imprescriptible reasons
cannot view the question raised by
the demands Of the powers excep1
from the point of view OF its owr
duty 1t was absolutely uncon.

Congress must either pass a Sc

Blanton said. He added:

Attacking the department of Ia

mise made yesterday by the eight

Threaten Leadership.
Threats by Republican senators
to bolt the leadership of Senator
Lodge. now held by the narrow
margin of two votes, brought to an
abrupt ending yesterday all talk of
compromise of the Lodge reservS-
tons to the treaty.
At a stormy gathering of the ir-
reconcilable opponents Of the treaty
held in Senator Hiram Johnson's
office, Senator Lodge was notified
that if he consented to the slightest
change in the reservations his lead
ership would be in danger.
The negotiations, senators ad-
mitted, involved future solidarity of
the Republican party not only In
the senate but in the nation.
Few Will Talk.
Except for brief statements from
Senators Lodge and Johnson. and a
lengthy statement from Senator
Sherman, few CT the senator's par
ticipating in the conference would
talk for publication. Mr.. Lodge
said that the senators who called
him to the meeting represented "a
large group of senators who want
no change in the Lodge reserva-
tens"
Senator Johnson said that the
Ledge reservations were said by
Mr.. Lodge to be "the irreducible
minimum" Others in the meeting
stated privately that the question
o. a treaty compromise on "Repuh-
lican solidarity and leadership IN
