Some Reasons Why
Business Should Be-
gin to Get Better

I The growing ease of money,
and the increasing bank reserves.
which are prerequisites Of business
activity.
2. The tone Of the stock market,
which registering as L does the col
lectivc opinion of acute and trained
observers, Is distinctly firmer and
substantially higher.
3. The advance in bonds, which
shows that investors are recovering
confidence and indicates that boarded
capital will shortly be seeking employ
ment
4. The government report on the
cotton crop, which puts the reduction
in acreage at 2S per cent and con-
notes hitherto unattachable degree
of cooperation among the Southern
farmers, BY virtue of which they will
in the future be able to control the
price of cotton and assure reasonable
prosperity for the South.
5. The manifest improvement in
the railroad situation evidenced by a
very substantial increase In net earn
ings for May.
6. The remarkable increase in
savings banks deposits in New York
and Chicago during the last six
months.
7. The general improved position
of the public utility companies in
the United States as a result Of the
general advance in street car fares
and public service charges that has
been authorized.

Deny HohenzoIIerns in Disfavor
For Monarchist Plot InvoIv-
ing Crown Prince.
BY EARLE c. REEVES.
international News Service.

LONDON, Jan. 1S.-Following an
inquiry from the British foreign Of
flee to the Dutch government con-
cerning a report that the Hohen-
zollerns would be expelled from
Holland because they had violated
Dutch hospitality, the Dutch le-
CATION in London issued an Official
statement this afternoon denying
the truth of the repor--.
NO TRUTH IN REPORT.
Officials at the Dutch legation said
there was no truth in the report that
the ex-Kaiser and the former crown
pripce were to be expelled, or that
the Dutch government had learned
the eN-crown prince was involved in
a plot for a militarist-manarchis
revolution in Germany.
The eX-crown prince recently paid
several visits to Doom from his place
of exile on Wieringen Island. and
while at Doom he had opportunity to
meet and talk with the German army
officers in question. The ostensible
reason for the ex-crown princes visits
was to see his mother, the former
kaiserin. who was reported dying of a
heart affliction.
The serious illness of the former
kaiserin offered an excellent oppor-
tunity for German visitors to Doom
to cloak the real purpose of their
visit, tf concealment were necessary.
Numerous German personages have
visited Doom for the announced pur-
pose OF condoling with the former
emperor over his wife's critical con-
dition.
There have been recent reports
that General Ludendorf was involved
in monarchist activities in Germany
and 1t was pointed out today that
some OF the officers who visited
Doorn may have been couriers from
LudendorE to the Hohenzollern fam
lily.

DUTCH TO GUST KAISER
AND FAMILY, IS REPORT

PARIS, Jan. 1S.-A sensation was
created here today by report
printed in the Matin that the former
Kaiser and the German Crown Prince
have been requested by the Dutch
government to leave Holland because
of their active intercourse with army
officers who are suspected of plotting
revolution to restore the German
monarchy.
The report Is without official con-
firmation, but it has reviewed talk OF
the possibility that the former en-
peror and the former Crown Prince
may be placed on trial by the Allies.
The Mathis dispatch was from
Strasbourg and the correspondent
claimed to have secured his informa-
ton from an authentic source.
After Constantine returned to Ath-
ems. reports were current that the
Dutch government was getting rest
i've over the constant stream of Wis
itors to Doom, and it was declared
that the former Kaiser might SHIFT
his exile to Corfu, where he owned
a splendid castle before the war.
If the former war lord is really
ousted from Holland and is not al
lowed to go to Corfu, he may make
Switzerland the seat of his future
exile, although IL is understood the
Swiss government is getting anxious
about the possible revolutionary
activities OF Charles, former emperor
of Austria.

FOUND IN JAIL
D. C. Rector Lays His Boys
Check Frauds to Wounds
Suffered Overseas.
SAD ENDING TO LONG HUNT
Harold Murphy's Father to Drop
All Other Duties and Go
To His Aid.
SAD ENDING TO LONG HUNT

A heart-broken father learned to-
day that the soldier-hero son he has
been seeking for three months is in
Jail in Los Angeles, Cal, charged
with passing worthless checks.
The father Is the Rev. Patrick
Murphy. rector OF the church OF st.
Michaels and All Angels, Twenty
second street and Virginia avenue
northwest. and widely known as a
charity worker or the highest-the
neutrality-suspicious..
The son is Harold T. Murphy, one
time expert photographer OF the De-
partment OF Agriculture; student at
the University of California; moving
picture camera man for the Fox
company, and wounded hero Of the
Argonne. st. Mihiel and Verdun.
ENDS LONG SEARCH.
According to Burns detectives, who
arrested young Murphy IN Los An
geles after a long search. he has
defrauded banks and business houses
in more than a dozen Western cities.
They say ne has passed worthless
checks totaling more than $1,000.
The father does not deny his sons
guilt He says tho charges- probably
are true, but he declares his son is
a victim of the war. He believes
his wounds, his shell shock. and his
being gassed have made him mental
ly irresponsible.
There was no need for him to
be dishonest" the white haired old
father half-sobbed today. He had
q splendid position. which paid him
well. And If he needed money, ne
could have got 1t just by writing
home"
WILL HELP HIS son.
The father said he would quit all
his other duties to help his son-and
those duties are many. In addition
to being rector of the Episcopal
Church of st. Michaels and All
Angels. he spends his week days
attending to the Emergency Home
he founded in Bancroft. Va. and
the Home for Old Ladies' he founded
at 2171 New York avenue north
west. and in comforting the sick and
wounded in the city hospitals. the
District Jail. and the workhouse at
Occoquan. he has been patiently
doing this work. without one cent
Of pay, for seven years.
Today, with head bowed and eyes
trying to look brave through film OF
suffering, he told the story OF the
boy he described as my lost SON
story borne out by DR.. William NJ.
Smith, postmaster of Alexandria, Va
his son-in-law.
"He was a fine. outstanding lad" he
said. with his faint touch of brogue
buried by heart-huskiness. Before
the war, whatever he tried he AL
ways made good. Then he enlisted
went over the top three times--and
came back changed. Instead of being
cheerful, he was morose and brood
ing. Before he went over. he was
forever looking for a chance to do
someone a favor. After he came back.
he was sullen. irritable, resentful of
the least request.
