Gil decided to ignore his request. He
was often mentioned as among those
who might be tried by the allies for
political offenses in connection with
the origin of the war.
Opposition to Democracy.
His national activities before 1914
to characterization of Germany At
times he was sharply outspoken in his
defiance of socialism, and he rejected
any move to make himself and the
other German ministers responsible
to the reichstag. In the early stages
OF the war. however, he became
known as a moderate.
Late in 1919 reports from Geneva
said he was credited in diplomatic
circles there as being at the bottom of
a monarchist movement in favor of
both the Hohenzollerns and Haps-
burgs, the nucleus of which was said
to be. forming in Switzerland. On
several occasions during his tenure of
Office DR.. Won Bethmann Hollweg
threw out peace feelers. particularly
in 1916, when he invited the allies to
enter negotiations. All of his over
lures contained only the vaguest in
dications regarding the German atti-
tude on peace settlement. and they
were rejected. 1t was following the
failure of his peace efforts in Decem-
Der, 1916, that he Endorsed unlimited
submarine warfare.
Son OF Law Expert.

born in 1856. the son of Matthias A.

SUM and at the Universities of Stras-
burg, Leipzig and Berlin. Entering the

CAPTURE R0bBER
Police Take Frank Castro After
Battle in Store.
Unsuccessful Attempt Made to
Loot Cooperative Grocery.

One man is in jail and police today
were searching for two others who
early this morning blew up the safe in
the Shawnee Cooperative grocery
store. Fourth and Branner streets, and
capped after exchanging shots with
the officers.
Frank Castro, a negro, was the man
captured. His two companions leaped
thru a window and got away but Cas-
tro lost his flashlight and the building
was surrounded by police before he
could find an exit
Found Behind Counter.
The explosion occurred just before
2 o'clock this morning. AZ passerby
heard it and called Patrolman A. c.
Sharr, who was in the neighborhood-
Sharr ran to the building. where he
was greeted by several shots which
failed to hit him. Unable to cope with
the situation alone, he called the sta
ton and in a few minutes reinfroce-
ments had arrived. The officers then
broke into the building. where they
found Castro hiding behind a counter.
His two companions, also negroes, had
escaped.
Nitro-glycerine was used to break
open the safe. The first explosion
had partly broken open the door and
another charge had been prepared
to finish the work. However, they
had not gained entrance to the inside
of the safe and nothing in the door
was damaged except a glass window
in the rear where the fugitives broke
thru when they made their escape, it
was said.
Castro said they were preparing the
second charge when they heard a car
drive up in front. The man on guard
gave the alarm, he said. and they
waited a moment, thinking the car
would drive on. When they learned it
contained officers they fired a few
shots in the hope of frightened them
away, Castro said.
Lost His F1ashIight.
''The other fellows got out" he de-
clared, but lost my flashlight some
way and couldn't see. BY the time I
found it again the place was sur
rounded and I couldn't get out. So
just got down behind a counter. I
had my gun and could probably have
picked off couple of those guys and
got away. But I hate to take a hu-
man life just for a thing like that"

Railroads Operate.

Washington. Oct. 24.-Definite in
formation that the government in
tends to seek court action to prevent
a nationwide railroad strike was Civ
en- today when Attorney General
Daugherty summoned five United
States district attorneys to Washing
ton to confer with him.
The attorney general announced he
had summoned district attorneys from
cities where it might be necessary to
seek court action in order to give them
instructions.
THE government will not run the
railroads. but it will see that the rail-
roads are operated" Attorney General
Daugherty said after a conference with
the president.
The attorney general said that IL
might be necessary to have the courts
define the powers of the railroad labor
board and indicated he will seek to
have the courts declare that since
there is no power of enforcement of
the decision of the labor board defined
in the transportation act, that the
power of enforcement rests with the
president of the United States.
