ENTENTE DIPLOMATS THINK
GERMANY FORCED DREAK
WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 7.— |
Entente diplomats are inclined to
believe that Germany scored a big
point in the interruption of diplo
matic relations between the United
States and that country. .The En
tente opinion here in diplomatic
circles is that Germany with con
siderable foresight deliberately pre
cipitated- the break with America
so that munition supplies and fac
tories would be commandeered and
kept here.

i bassy put this very plainly. He
feared that military necessity would
[curb the exports of food and muni
tions to the Allied nations so that
the United States could be ready
for all. emergencies. It is evident
that such plans, he said are even
now receiving the attention of the
government.
These diplomats say that the
United States’ entry into the war
i would be futile as the conflict will

With teams of seventeen or
eighteen dogs Mr and Mrs. Deming
Wheeler arrived yesterday after
noon and are now registered at the
Golden Gate Hotel. They came
overland via the Yukon taking
their trip leisurely and pleasantly
all the way.

A fact in connection with the Holt
fire which has caused no end ot
comment is that the town literally
knew nothing about it on account
of the fact that there is no whistle
or other alarm. The bell was moved
from the Kimball building yester
day and no time will be lost putt
ing it in position. When the idea
of a whistle was suggested to Chief
Haughy the latter made it the text
for a sermon upon the folly of
abolishing the saloons: the town is
going on the bum. so to say. It is
remarkable that while the city has
all kinds of money for interior de
corations of the fire depratment and
time and money for the construc
tion of cells for the accomodation
of the annual prisoner, there was
no such rash haste in putting up a
I city fire alarm. Maybe they were
I awaiting the approval of the sa
loons in the matter?

WASHINGTON, D. C„ Feb. 7.—
It is understood that Germany will
take steps to prevent the commis
sion of an overt act might throw
the United States into the great
European conflict. The situation is
being viewed with anxiety by Ger

government proceed . with “extreme
