Against her wishes.
Justice Hoehling issued a rule
recurring the relatives to appear
on February 10 and show cause
why they should not be restrained
from removing any of the children
until the matter of guardianship Is
settled. Miss Gordon. aunt on the

the children. She is employed in
the school and medical inspection

The estate of the father amounts

EX-CROWN PRINCE
FORESAW DEFEAT

BERLIN. Feb. LIN a remsrka-
BILE letter to a friend in Germany,
given out for publication, the for
mer crown prince makes these dec
larations and sums up what he con-
siders TO have been the causes OF
Germany's defeat in the war.
Immediately after our defeat on
the Marine" Friedrich wilhelm wrote
10 his friend. Il considered that VIC
tory was impossible. Consequently
supported every possibility of peace.
IL all failed, il was the fault OF
the political leaders.
Not any single incident but a
total OF mistakes, combined with the
hunger blockade. rendering the pop
ulation morbid. as well as our dim
cult military position. caused the ca
tsstrophe.
1T Is my personal opinion that
a monarchy Is probably beneficial for
certain nations. But il does not mat
ter what ! think. since Germany's
parliamentary majority has elected
to maintain a republic. A republic

are crimes against the Fstherland.' -

Sacrifices Naval Supremacy.
The United States has made one
Of the most remarkable expert
mepts in history. 1t has agreed to
resign naval supremacy. which was
ours for the taking, 1t has con-
sented to sacrifices in naval
strength out OF all proportion to
those asked of It's associates, It has
promised to refrain from terrifying
all of its Pacific islands with the
exception of Hawaii and the coastal
groups, In return for these sacri-
fees II has obtained concessions
from Britain and from Japan in
the matter Of sea strength and is
land fortresses. But, in reality.
the compensation must be found in
the treaties made to insure mutual
respect for territorial possessions
In the Pacific.
The ultimate success Of the CON-
ference must be sought not In the
parchments which have been writ
ten. but in the spirit which Is dis
pLaycu In thcr hppfic4tlon JUST as
the actual Importance of the Shan
tung settlement must be found In
similar evidence.
In reality we have settled little.
but have provided a method for
settling much and In doing this
have done all that any conference
can do. Where political conditions
have not seen adjusted We have
failed here as we failed in Paris.
The Anglo-Frepch quarrels here
have demonstrated how far the
world still Is from readiness to hail
q new era. the Sino-Japanese situ-
atoms have disclosed the continued
presence of old evils, We have not
made general peace nor insured
world order. but something useful
has been not only undertaken, but
within limits achieved, and IL some
Of the mistakes Of Paris have been
repeated, not . few of the results
here give promise Of proving more
enduring.

Engineer Commissioner Keller
continued his plans for completion
Of the investigation for the Dis
trict yesterday. He held to his
theory that perhaps faulty con-
struction coupled with bad material
was the cause of the collapse. Col.
Keller said, however, he did not
see signs of criminal negligence
on the part of any person.
Grounds upon which the Federal
investigation will be placed be-
fore the grand jury will be known
by the close of the week. District
Attorney Gordon will place the
case before the grand jury at that
time, reading the law providing for
criminal prosecution. The law
demands that gross and wanton
negligence be shown before Grim
inal prosecution may be ordered In
a matter of this nature. 1nvolun-
tary manslaughter which provides
a maximum penalty of fifteen years
in the District, is the charge which
will be placed against anyone
found to be grossly negligent in
their connection with the building
and the collapse of the roof. MAI

Chief Urges Reserve Service,
More Men, and Wrecking
Truck Outfit.

The Knickerbocker Theater crash
taught the District IRE depart
ment three lessons. according to
Chief George S. Watson. The most
important was the dire need of a
reserve motorized service to meet
such emergencies. he said.
The second lesson is the "abso-
lutte necessity" of a hve-ton wreck
ing truck, a searchlight wagon and
acetylene torches. The work OF
rescue was retarded by the lack OF
all these. Chief Watson said. par
ticularly the aeetylene torches. In
such an emergency such equipment
is held a positive necessity. The
chief said that he has continually
sought to have these pieces of
equipment added to his department..
but that they have always been
refused
The third lesson that has come
to the department along the lines
of bitter experience was the need
of more hremen, SO that he might
cope with any emergeUcy. Chief
Watson stated that he asked for ap-
propriations to cover an additional
1o1 nep to bring the department up
to standard, but that he was appro-
pristed but enough money to add
twelve men.
At present. seventeen pieces of
apparatus are crippled as result
of the storm and the emergencies
arising from II. according to Chief
Watson. The fire departments re-
pair shops are working night and
day. under forced draught, in order
to rehabilitate this equipment and

weeks will be necessary before this
is complete. according to the FIRE
