demonstration which promised success,
but there was always a lurking suspi-
cion that any aggressive action might
prove a boomerang. The German Gov
eminent was NOT going, if it could help
it, to take a position that would lead to
resentment in America. 1t is appar-
ent that Germany--and again this pri-
marily means Wilhelm II--triad to en-
courage every promising suggestion,
letting it be understood that she would
support any move that was hopeful but
would not take the initiative.
The Kaiser was Of the opinion that
the Philippines should not pass to
any other 20 Wer. wholly or IN part,
without Germany's receiving an equI
vaIent compensation" In other words
the Kaiser wanted the Philippines if he
cOu,d get them, and was ready to snap
up any other insular morseI that might
be careIes5ly dropped in the Pacific.
But he didn't care to risk a war with
the United States, contenting himself,
instead, with trying by devious schem-
ing TO prevent the United States from
expanding and becoming powerful. 1t
would seem thai Am arica's distrust of

DAMAGE TO CHURCH
NOT CAUSED BY QUAKE
Tower OF First Lutheran EdiHce
First Struck BY Lightning, Then
LooSened BY Storms

There 10 no doubt that a stroke
OF lightning was the original cause
OF the damage to the tower on the
First Lutheran church and not an
earthquake, as was tirst supposed,
according to statement made to-
day by Rev. Dr. A. A. Ahlquist. Or.
Ahlquist was discussing the invest
cation now being made by insur-
ance adjusters, report OF which is
expected within a. few days.
That the damage II by earth
quake would have shown up IN
other sections OF the buildink. par
ticularly in the foundation, is the
opinion OF experts, who point out
that had the building osnn shaken
by a tremor neighbors would have
heard the ringing OF the ttlL The
other tower which holds the bell
and which IL subjected to great
deal more vibration because OF this
fact, has been found to be perfectly
solid.
The tower In question was struck
by lightning some time ago and the
pillar was said to have been
loosened at that time. Wind and
subsequent storms are thought to
have gradually worked it looser
