WASHINGTON, March 8—Wire
leas mesages received here by the
@tate Department state that over
'fstir hundred were killed and wound
ed in the recent lighting in Berlin,
hut that order is being restored.
LONDON, March 8—Dispatches re
ceved here state that the German
Minister of War, Noske has succeed
ed in quelling the riot* in Berlin.
The hpartacus radicals are report
ed to have been enMroly defeated
and lneir attempts to gain control in
Benin and to overthrow the present
•German Government frustrated.
The radicals, lac e ng the support
of the bulk of the ponu’atton were no
match for the loyal tr > »* s v.hch the
Miau-ier of War had assembled In
Xtet.ln.
Many of the instigators of the re
volt have been arrested while others
have succeeded in making their es
cape but are being sought for.
BERLIN, March 7—Bitter street
lighting around the police headquart
er* of the city continues The radi
cals have so far been unsuccessful in
capturing the stronghold which is
beng defended by loyal soldiers with
great gallantry. Both sides are using
artillery and the losses in killed and
wounded on both sides are consider
able.
Fifteen thousand members of the
German marines are reported to have
deserted the government forces and
joined the radicals.
The whole community is being ter
rorized, outrages committed by the
radicals against those citizens who re
fuse to join the radicals, being fre
quent. Much pillaging is reported
to have occurred in the suburbs of
Berlin. The government forces are
doing their utmost to restore order,
but are confronted by a task of con
siderable magnitude, as the radicals
despite every reverse sustained by
them, seem to be determined to keep
up the fight.
V.'MMAR, March 6—It is reported
that should the present German gov
ernment collapse, Gustav Noske the
present minister of war of the Ger
man Republic will assume the dic
tatorship until another Assembly has
been elected.
The German strike leaders are re
ported to be willing to withdraw their
demand for a trial ana punishment of
the German ex Kaiser, the Crown
Prince and some. of. the former Ger
man Generals who are held responsi
ble for having instigated and further
ed the war on certain, at present un
known, conditions.
PARIS, March 6—Dispatches re
ceived from Germany show that the
political situation of the latter coun
try is rather grave.
It is believed here in diplomatic
circles that unless the Allies co-op
erate in stabilizing German affairs,
the German Peace envoys will be un
able to sign the Peace preliminaries.
The revolutionary sentiment among
the German workers is so widespread
and growing at such an alarming rate
that it is evident that the Allied na
tions will have to make some effort
to assist the present German govern
ment in keeping control.
it tne Allies refuse to meddle in
German affairs and the present un
settled conditions continue in Ger
many, the Peace negotiations may be
unduly delayed.

ored thru their tactics in obstructing
legislation to force President Wilson
*e call an extra session of Congress.

his refusal to call an extra session

failure of passage of some import
ant measures.

seven hundred and fifty million Dol
lars for the administration of the

government was ' fosierting plans to
send millions of immigrants to Amer

a great commercial offensive, consid
ered by the commission more in

well under way.
Germany’s business men and manu
facturers intend to struggle to the ut
most to regain their lost trade. The

on their hands if they want to keep

GERMAN RADICALS
STILL ON RAMPAGE
BERLIN, March 6—Street fighting
between the radicals and the soldiers
has been renewed here with consider
able losses on both sides. Although
the German government has the as
sistance of a large body of loyal troops
much difficulty is being experienced in
preventing the radicals from rising
in open rebellion.
LONDON, March 6—Reports re
ceived from Germany state that the
revolt of the radical element in Berli
has been a failure and that the dan
ger of a coup to overthrow the Ger
man government is believed to have
been passed.
Sixty thousand loyal troops are re
ported to have been assembled by
the German Minister of War in Ber
lin and this show of force has greatly
tended to discourage the radical ele
ment.
The strike of the local workers
which had been instigated by the
radical element is reported to be a
complete failure many of the striking
having returned to work.
COPENHAGEN, March 6—Dis
patches received here from Berlin
state that it is reported that the Ger
man government after making some
concessions has reached a settlement
with the striking workmen.
The government has conceded the
demand of the strikers that the Ger
man Soldiers and Workmen’s Coun
cil be allowed to praticipate in the
formulation of the constitution for
the German Republic.
• This concession has removed the
greatest obstacle to a good under
standing betwen the government and
the strikers and will assist greatly in
pacifying the workers and induce
them to work in harmony with the
German government.
BERLIN, March 5—A set of reso
lution formulated by committees of
the striking German workers has
been presented to the German govern
ment with an imperative demand for
fcheir immediate acceptance and exe
cution.
The strikers demand the abolition
of the standing army and the immed
iate release of all persons imprison
ed for purely political offenses.
Immediate steps are demanded to
be taken by the German government
to enter into close relations with the
Russian Soviet and for recognition of
the German Soldiers and Workmen’s
Council.
COPENHAGEN, March 4—Press
dispatches received here from Ger
many state the German government
has been compelled to declare martial
law at Berlin, Spandan and Teltow.
Disturbances created by the radical
edemer t have assumed serious pro
portions and troonc have been ns
sein'r icd to maintain order. Clashes
betwten the loyal .“Oidiers and the
radicals are occurring daily and the
government is re,'1 vted to have its
hands full to rertoie order and pre
vent an uprising of the workers.
Strikes are becoming more fre
quent and of greater proportions.
The foodshortage is held to be
mainly responsible for the unrest
among the working people.
RADICALS FGHT SOLDIERS
BERLIN, March 4—Dispatches re
ceived here from Leipzig, Saxony
state that loyal government troops
and radicals have engaged in bloody
fighting in the latter city.
The radical publications in Saxony
are advocating a general strike thru
out Germany.
The movement to start a new revo
lution and establish a proletarian re
public is finding much favor with the
radical workers who are not in sym
pathy with the present German gov
ernment, as having only changed in
name and form but not in tactics.
Five hundred thousand workers
in Saxony are reported to be going
on strike tomorrow as a protest
against the action of the present Ger
man government.
PARIS, March 7—Rumors are cur
rent here that owing to the uncom
promising attitude of a majority of
the United States Senators, the con
stitution of the proposed League of
Nations may be modified to discount
the opposition of the American Sena
tors.
It is believed here that by eliminat
ing or modifying some of the provi
sions, the .opposition of the majority
of the opponents of the constitution
as drawn up at present will be over
come and the entrance of the U. S.
as a member of the League of Nations
be assured.
PARIS, March 7—It has been offi
cially announced that the Allies have
arrived at an understanding concern
ing the disarmament ,of the German
Navy.
By the terms submitted to t*-o Ger
man delegation, Germany’s navy will
be reduced from the second rz ' ■
which she occupied before the war to
the thirteenth.
By these terms the Allies hav§ con
demned Germany to impotency on the
seas.
Only sufficient vessels will be allow
ed her to patrol her coastline and t<*
act as Revenue cutters.
What disposition of the war vessels
surrendered by Germany the Allies
intend to make has not been made
public.
Some of the powers are in favor
of destroying them while others wish
to have them divided among the pow
ers to be incorporated in their navies.
PARIS, March 8—The negotiations
for revictualing Germany and the
transfer of the German Merchant
Fleet have been broken off by the
German Armistice Commission, the
latter being unwiling to submit to a
transfer of their merchant marine to
.the Allies unless a sufficient supply
of foodstuffs to be distributed in Ger
many is guaranteed them.
The negotiations as reported will be
re-opened as the English and French
minister have declared to supply Ger
many with food until the next harvest
is guaranteed.
An agreement has also been reach
ed among the Allies whereby the food
embargo on Austria will be lifted im
mediately.
