The obvious answer to this chal-

kind OF parliamentary system. In
the experiment the older officials
never believed. They held that In
d.. always had submitted TO per-
sonal rule and always would. They
were for efficiency and justice. but
for decisive power. They agreed
absolutely with tho plan OF blowing
mutineers from the guns, and when

Lord Morley, as secretary for
India. Lord Ainto and Lord Read
ing, as vlceroys, and W. Il. $. Mon
tagu, who has Just resigned, have all
held that the more advanced areas
IN India must have parliamentary
institutions. II might be true that
not one person in ten could read. II
might be true that the very nature
OF a vote was unknown TO the mass
of the people. But there had grown
up a minority OF intsllectuals who
had been educated, oftentimes, in
Britain or the United States, who
were the natural leaders OF the
people, who ought, therefore, TO be
trained in the responsibilities Of
government. Hence. during the
war, India was granted a parliament
at Delhi and a number OF provincial
legislatures Tho limitations OF the
scheme were severe. First, tho
franchise was very small, only about
six million voters in British India
enjoying the suffrage; secondly the
powers entrusted to the legislative
bodies were incomplete, and, thirdly,
the legislative bodies were not
wholly elected. Many or the mem
bers were officials or nominated by
the executive. To the British mind
this seemed the best way OF pro-
CeedinE. Their own parliament had
been elected for centuries on very

GOERLITZ, Silesia. Jan. 19.-Count-
ess Eleanore Won Schleffen, who is on
trial here with her two sons, an ex-
governess and two other men for con-
spiracy to murder Count Georg Wilhelm
Won Schlieffen, wealthy head of that
family, confessed to-day that she had
known of the plot and told the court
that she had thoroughly approved of it.
son Of Count Martin Schlieffen. was
killed by Hans Heinrich, a defendant
and son Of the Countess, according to
confession made by him in court
yesterday.
Countess Eleanore, however, denied
that there was any conspiracy to muir
der old Count Martin. She asserted
that the plot to murder Count Georg
and blow up Schlieffen Castle in Meek
lenburg had been discussed at great
length by herself and members of her
family at the breakfast table, at dinner
and at tea. She insisted that even
the servants and shopkeepers in the
village had been taken into the fam
ily's confidence in working out the
plan.
Roessel, defendant, who was hired
by Countess Eleanore as her chief
agent in working out the plot. pleaded
in court that he had agreed to carry
out his part Of the crime for the
countess under the influence of her
hypnotic eye.
There was something in her eye ]
was powerless to resist" he said.
When the countess was asked
whether she had promised love as a
reward to Roessel, she shrugged her
shoulders.
The assertion yesterday of Hans
Heinrich that his mother was not in
the plot was shattered to-day not only
by the confession of the countess her
self, but also by the testimony of
other witnesses. Some said that they
had received money from both the
countess and Hans Heinrich to carry
out the plot to blow up the castle,
and that she had told them the plan
was merely her way of restoring her
shattered fortunes. A pawnbroker
testified that the countess, in pawning
the last of her silver, had told him
she would soon be rich again, falling
heir to Georgs fortune.
The countess's assertion that she
had not confessed immediately to her
part in the plot because she wanted to
save the family's honor was greeted
with murmur Of approval am 7ng the
royahsts in the court room watching
the progress Of the trial.

tonic Firm Contract to
Construct the First Line
in Operation Since War
Will Touch at Azores
Messages To Be Transferred
Between Sections There
A m mOst InstantaneOusly

Direct cable communication with
Germany after lapse of eight years
is made possible through the signing
Of contract between the Commercial
CablesrPostal Telegraph system and the
German Atlantic Cable Company, n
German corporation, according to an
announcement made yesterday by Clar-
ence "A. Mackay president Of the Amer
ican company.
The contract provides for the laying
of a new cable between New York and
Emdcn, Germany, touching Mt the
Azores. This cable is to be rushed to
completion, and will be in operation it
is said, by October, 1928
The arrangement further provides
for the Commercial Cable Company to
lay a cable from New York to the
Azores (2,302 miles), and for the Ger
many company to make the connection
between the Azores and Emden U,888
miles,. The two sections will be joined
at the Azores station, and all messages
will be transferred automatically from
one to the other, thus giving what
virtually will be instantaneous service
between the two countries.
Under the terms of the contract the
commercial CaDlcS-fOSCal Telegraph
system will hand to the German COM
pany all messages collected by it in the
United States destined for Germany
and the German company will recipro-
cate by sending all of its American
traffic via the Commercial Cables Pos
tai Telegraph system.
During the war, it was pointed out,
there was no cable communication be-
tween Germany and the United States.
Since the signing of tho armistice all
cable messages sent between the two
countries have had to pass either
through England or France. This plan
has not proved satisfactory to Ameri-
can business interests, it was said, and
the new cable is being put down in re-
sponsc to a widespread demand on the
part of commercial houses, banking in
stitutions and others interested in the
trade relations of the United States
and Germany for better communication
facilities.
Prior to the outbreak of the World
War there we're two cables between the
United States and Germany, and both
were operated by the Commercial Gable
Company. although owned by the Ger
man Atlantic Cable Company The
first Of these was laid in 1900 and the
second in 1904. They extended from
New York to the Azores and thence to
