The time for the trip was in- ed ten days and Mr. Curtis pted the defy. He arrived in Berlin this morning about 7:30 o’clock | and immediately began to obtain signatures. He refused to disclose the names of the signers, saying part of the wager was that the names could not be published until the en- “tire trip was completed.

Press.) Berlin, July 19 (via London, July 20.)—A campaign of oratory designed to check the extreme annexationist movement represented by the Conser- ‘atives and the right wing of tha National Liberals is being_organized by the so-called German National committee, whose chairman is Prince von Wedel, formerly Viceroy of | Alsace-Lorraine and now General- Adjutant to the Kaiser. The speak- ers will include many of the most prominent names in German science, industry, trade and agriculture. One of the executive officers in a statement to newspaper correspon- Jients said: “We frankly want an honorable peace, but not peace at any price. We do not want peace delayed through the efforts of those who demand that | we take all we can get and hold fast | to everything our military power en- | ables us to, without regard to future consequences. “Our desire is heartily to support the Chancellor's policies, but we dis- agree with the government's prohi- bition of public discussion of the aims | of the war.” The campalgn will begin on August 1, when public addresses will be made In fifty citles. Police permis- sion has already been granted. The principal newspapers are in favor of the committee’s program. The Cath- olic newspapers are for the most part with the committee. Dr. Spahn, the Catholic leader, came to the defence of the Chancel- lor in the Reichstag. The annexation- ist plans are strongly supported by the Agrarian leaders and important groups of big manufacturers. The Frankfurter Zeitung within a week has suggested that a truce be arranged so that German soldiers may. go home for the election of a | new Reichstag. As a first step toward an under- standing with Germany’s enemies the Soctalists and a section of the Liber- als have heen urging for some time that the government announce def- nitely Germany’s aims in the war. Dr. von Bethntann-Hollweg, the Imperfal Chancellor, has been at- tacked by the Conservatives and Agrarians for his inclination toward peace, as exemplified in the settl (Correspondence of the Asso. Press.) their affair of July 30. President Louis Anderson has appointed several tcommittees to arrange for the outing and several surprises are in store for . those who attend. The outing will be “neld in Seagroe's grove in the rear of the fair grounds, and a large at- tendance is anticipated. Although being organized only two years, the Jocal club has grown rapid- Jy. Much interest was manifested at first, but gradually grew less and less until at one time, it was thought the club would go out of existence. But Wir.
