Tells How Ruin
Stunned Kaiser
Book Reveals Generals Told
Ruler Army Would Not
Obey His Orders.

LONDON. March CO. Quotations
from the book OF Gen. Won Eisen-
hart Roethe, entitled. THE Kaiser
on November 3, 1915" wired by the
Daily Express Berlin correspond
ent, give a melodramatic picture
of the former emperor on the day
his fortunes crashed to earth.
Explaining Wilhelm's flight into
Holland after 1t had been suggested
that he lead part of the army back
into Germany to suppress the
growing revolt, the author says
that Gen. Groener told the Kaiser.
Your Majesty, the army will
march back home calmly and in
orderly fashion under its leaders,
but under no. circumstances under
Your Majesty's orders"
The Kaiser was pale and indig-
nant, the writer says, and demand
ed that this statement be put in
writing by Groener. Hindenburg
and the other general officers, aft
er a consultation.
The author reproduces an extract
from the Kaiser's diary. written on
the same night. 1t reads:
Gen. Won Hindenburg advised
me to leave the army, now collaps-
ing and to depart to ncu-
trail country as the only way to
avert terrible civil war in my be-
loved Fatherland.
my soul fought a terrible bat
tie with itself. / didn't want to ex-
pose myself to the accusation of
cowardice. and much preferred to
die fighting shoulder to shoulder
with my loyal men.
But all competent military au-
thorities, including the general
staff as a body, declared that the
troops would no longer fight. I am
leaving with a bleeding heart"

DUBLIN. March 2o.-Frequent ex-

into full fame the cmbers Of war
fare along the border between
Ulster and South Ireland.
Irishmen of the north and the
south are rapidly increasing their

tilted buildings, fighting men watch
the foe across the border and take
frequent pot shots.
There were severe exchanges OF
shots between Irish Republican
army forces and Ulster special con-

1t is not denied here that the Irish
Republican army forces are active
within the Ulster counties. Three
J. r. A. men, who were captured in
Limavady, County Londonderry,
possessed twenty-four rifles and
5000 rounds of ammunition. A

U. U.S.CO-ePERATION S.
In EUROPE ASKED
BY GERMAN ENVOY
DIR. Otto Wiedfeldt Says
ReparatiOns Issue Af-
fects America.

ESSEN, March 20.-'T was opposed
to Germany's acceptance of the
treaty of Versailles and the London
ultlmatum- Once they were ac-
cepted, however, saw that no other
course was open than to do ou-
utmost to fulfil the conditions i'm
posed upon us and by our honest
attempt at fulfilIment show their
impossibility. 1t was for this rea-
son that ! and the Krupps sup
ported Chancellor wirth in the re-
cent cabinet crisis provoked by at
tempts to remove him because of
his supposed acceptance of all the
entente's demands.
There may have been doubts as
to the wisdom of his course when
he originally entered upon il. but
there is no turning back possible
now. For Germany today the only
possible policy is the wirta policy
of fulfllment."
Words of German Envoy.
In these words DR.. Otto wied-
feldt. the ncwly-appointed German
Ambassador to the United states.
who is awaiting Americas approval
of his nomination, gave his oninion
of the main problem that will con-
front him at Washington. D..
Wiedfeldt laid particular stress
upon the point of American COOP
Grafton on the restoration of
Europe.
MY chief problem will be the
reparations." continued DR.. Wied-
feldt. And everything else as it
looks to me now will be but a
minor affair until that problem Is
settled satisfactorily. The settle-
ment of the reparations problem is
impossible without Americas inter-
est and assistance. America inter-
ested herself in European affairs Of
her volition and it Is hard to see
how she can keep out of them
permanently now.
Would Like to Pay Debt.
American assistance can be di-
rect and indirect. America, for ex-
ample, can suggest remedies for
Europe's illness that would be dis
carded without investigation IL
they came from any European
power on the ground that they
were prejudiced. America has a di-
rect interest in the question of
reparations which will have to come
to expression sooner or later.
My own position is that Germany
would be more than delighted to
lay her entire reparations debt of
1S2.0o0.o00,0o0 gold marks (s3s,OOo,-
000,o00) on the enteute's table to-
day. However, the result would be
disastrous for the entente and I
think that II is becoming clear that
1t will be just as disastrous even
though the money is paid In the
installments as directed.
The Russian question Is always
delicate. but Germany must trade
with Russia to the extent of her
ability. A few million unemployed
in America would denote a very
severe economic crisis. but a few
million unemployed in Germany
would denote political changes.
Business with Russia may provide
a way out"

Both Houses of Congress Be

Congress must decide the aues-

The District Commissioners have
determined on a policy Of neutral
ity in regard to the Capper bill TO
increase the salaries Of Washington

forth the cost to the District, in
case the Senate passes the bill.
The decision of the Commission
ers was reached after a meeting
with the Board Of Education yes
terday. A final conference between
the Commissioners and the Board
OF Education will be held today,
Those present at yesterdays con-
terence were James T. LLOYD and

will increase for the first ten years
and will then begin to decrease
The cost for the tenth year will ap-
proximate $1,000, 900.
The position of the Commission
ers has been that the statutory en-
ployes are due for a raise before
any other drain is put on the Dis
tricts finances. In view of the fact,
however. that the need for an IN
crease in teachers salaries is ur-
gent and that the Capper bill is in
fair way to pass Congress. they
have decided not TO oppose il.

ed in the introduction of the Capper

Members of the House predict that
little opposition would arise in that

salaries of teachers be brought into
the House.
Senators are equally as sanguIne
in predicting that the Senate would

for the school teachers. Senator
Capper, in drawing his bill, included
all grades from the kindergarten
teachers to the superintendent OF

1t is explained that the Commits

in the salaries of teachers but that
any increase affecting the school

America is atrifie boastful OF

reason to be proud of Thurston. who
has amused nations and made them
pay for it. Thurston talks English,
or at least Americanese. He talks
all the time he works-and then
some. He uses language to divert
YOU from what he is doing. II you
speak English and understand what
he is saying you will find that his
conversation dazzles, sparkles. cleo
trifes. He is wise, witty, subtle.
keen and has a vocabulary like a
circus add writer. And here IS the
strange part-the people who do not
know a word of English enjoy Thurs
ton just as much as those who DO,
which shows you what a superiority
gician performs.
Every trick of every magician

THEATRES
At The Strand

In New York John Rossmore was
a commercial king. At Palm Beach
he was a social prince. Real royalty
| would have envied him the homag
he received-for he was one OF the
richest and most powerful men In
The entire country.
Men sought his favor fawningly;
women employed all their artinces
to gain his eye. But Rossmore tired
of this worship of money and the
women of his set bored him to dis
traction. So when he met Little
Mrs. smith," who was able to spend
a vacation at Palm Beach because
her husband had been given an in
crease in salary, the fact that n
was a bride, ana on her honeymoon,
did not interfere with his envy OF
her.
But the destiny which rules our
lives disturbed his plans; and one
day John Rossmore was found dead
on the floor of his library. Three
persons had started for his home
that day with revolvers in their
pockets and hatred for the financier
in their hearts.
One of the three was arrested n
placed on trial for the crime.
The second became a juror in the
Nobody was The third.

The answer lies in Nobody
which will be shown today at the
Strand theatre. In it Jewel Carmen
plays the part of Little Mrs. Smith"
and this Roland West-First National
attraction promises to be n of the
most unusual and mysterious of mo-
ton pictures.
From the start to the final fade
out the story is developed with in
creasing tensity; and the remarkable
cast which supports the star assists
in making a graphic story.
