P)—A “white book” published at Weimar today containing all the doc- uments relating to the period from August 13 to November 11 last, deal- ing with the peace offer of the Ger- man movement and the armistice. In a preface, the government says it decided upon publication of the doc- ument because the people want to know the truth. One of the most Telegrams on the subject were sent to Vienna and Constantinople the same day. The affair entered a new phase at this point, for the army leaders, Who had previousiy insisted upon their own strength, now demanded that the mil- important negotia- tions dealt with by the White Book is| itary situation be relieved instaatly the conference in which Emperor| by peace.

General Ludendorfr declared that the peace of- fer must be ~ despatched instantly, while he held up the army’s retreat for forty-eight hours. On October 2 Prince Maximillian of Baden appeared before the party leaders of the reichstag and opposed any action towards peace by that body because the military- situation was critical and he feared that such ac- tion would affect the developments unfavorably. He said he had been offered the chancellorship on October 1 on. condition that he would make peace immediately. On_ October 2 General Ludondorff asked for a summary of the propo: ed peace note and telephoned his suggestions regarding it. The note to the United States was formulated at great headquarters on the night of October 3-4. Prince Maximillan declared that he fought against the notc because he considered the time premature. He said he thouzht General Luden- dorft had heen affected by a case of nerves and that the situation was not so serious as the general painted it. = R L S e S Y e NEW YORK GANGSTERS BRITISH SHIP CAPSIZED KILLED SLAYERS OF LEADER 140 MILES OFF HATTERAS 2 = g = New York, Aug. 1.—Myster: till New York.

Field Marshal Von Hindenburg and Dr. Michaelis, the imperial chancellor, thought it would be possible for the Germans to remain on French terri- tory and thus retain a pledge for the peace negotiations, the documents show. The previously-held belief that the attempt to start negotiations must be made through a neutral was aitered by this conference. Field Marshal Von Hindenburg was still opposed to a di- reet appeal to the enemy, while sanc- tioning the idea of working through a meutral power. Meanwhile Aus- tria had to be considered because of the special plans she was making. September 21, the book reveals, de- veloped a decision to appeal directly 1o the United States. Admiral Von Hintze, who was then forcign secre- tary, is quoted as replying to a ques- tion' on the date as follows: “On. order of His Majesty and by agreement with the chancellors at Vienna and Constantinople, 1 _advise ap offer of peace be made on the bas- istof President Wilson’s fourteen points and that he be invited to call this city Saturday night. “Tanner” .

SENATE RESERVATIONS ON 3 THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS Washington, Aug. 1—The reserva- tion proposal agreed to by seven re- publican senators as the basis of rati- fication of the Leaglie of Nations cov- cpant is so worded, it became known tonight, that the ‘reservations and understandings,” enumerated. 1 become “a part of the tregty,” and shall not stand simply as a detached interpretation by the -senate. ‘While some of the sponsors of the programme regard it as merely inter- pretative in effect, clarifying the language of the covenant without changing the meaning of any provi- sion, others of the seven believe it goes further and greatly softens cer- tain features, which, they say, vio- late national rights. The reservations as agreed to' in definite terms are embodied in a pro- posad ratification resolution, reading as follows: That the senate of the United States advise and consent to the rati- fication of said treaty with the fol- lowing reservations and understand- ings to be made a part of the treaty by the instrument of ratification. —That whenever the two _years' notice of withdrawal from the League of Nations shall have been given by the United States as provided in Arti- cle one, the United States shall be the sole judge whether all its international obligations and all its obligations un- der the covenant shall have been ful- filled at the time of withdrawal. “2—That the suggestions of the council of the League of Nations as to the means of carrying the obligations of Article Ten into effect are only ad- visory, and that any undertaking un- der the provisions of Article Ten, the execution of which may reuire the use of American military or naval fore- es or economic measures, can under the constitution be carried out onl under the act of the congress @i that the failure of the c nm adopt the suggestions of the or of the league, or to provide sileh military or naval forces or economic. measures, shall not constitute a vio- lation of the treaty. “3—The United States reserves to itself the right to decide what ques- tions are within its-domestic jurisdic- tion and declares thai all domestic and political questions relating to its in- ternal affairs, meluding immigration, coastwise traffic, the tariff, commerce and all other purely domestic ques- tions, are sorely within the jurisdic- tion of the United States and arc not by this covenant submitted in way either to arbitration or to the consideration of the council or the as- Suimbly of the TtamuseliNAtions ors to'the decision or réeommen iy S bowe, e, o “4—THe TUnited STaTes does not bil itself to submit for arbitration or iu- quiry Dby .the assembly- br-the counc any guestion which in the judgment of the Enited States depends_upon or in volves its long established - policy || commonly known as the Monroe Doc- | trine, and it is preserved unaffected by any provision in the said treaty contained.” - The seven republicans who agreed to this proposal as a basis for the ef- fort to bring on a middle ground sen- ators of both parties who favor the league plan in general outline, werg Senators McNary, Oregon; McCumber, North Dakota; Colt, Rhode Island Spencer, Missouri; Cummins, Iowa; Kellogg, Minnesota, and Lenxoot, ‘Wis- consin. It became known tonight that the phoposed resolution had not been pre- sented either to Republican Leader Lodge or to Senator®Hitchcock, ad- ministration leader in the treaty fight, and that the cfforts of the group spon- soring the plan probably would be di- rected for the present toward enlarg- ing their number in order to hold in- disputably the balance of power. Ne- gotiations with administration leaders along the general line laid down in, the resolution have been in progress, however, for several das. * LAX BANKING METHODS OF NORTH PENN BANK Philadelphia, Aug. 1.—Further de. velopments are expected soon in the investigation of the affairs of the North_ Penn bank. which closed its doors two weeks ago today with an apparent shortage in its accounts of $2,000,000. Ralph T. Moyer, cashier of the bank. who is under $25,000 bail on six charges of violating the banking laws, and Walter O. Golflesh, head bookkeeper, who has furnished much information about the methods of the bank, spent nearly the entire day with representatives of the state banking department golng over many of the transactions which helped to wreck the institution. Tt was said that Moy- er has furnished the names of men ‘higher up” who had irresular deal- ings with the bank, but those in close connection with the investigation re- fuse to talk for publication. Colonel Fred Taylor Puse: counsel representing the attorney gen- eral and state banking department, held out some hope for depesitors to- [{day when he informed an attorney representing a group of creditors that checking up had resulted in finding $500,000 in loans that will be paid when due. Moyer was quoted today as saying that the actual losses from loans would be less than - $100,000. What the overdrafts -amount to and how much of this cantbe collected is still_unknown. Déspite the publication of unofficial reports of -the allezed extravagance and high living of several employes of the North Penn bank and intimations that they unlawfully benefited through lax banking methods. no action. has been taken by the authorities. A rep resentative of the district attorney's office said today there were no war- rants out for them and that they could be found when wanted. 1: 1 1 t i special COUPLE KILLED BY A _ BOSTON EXPRESS TRAIN Milford, ‘onn., Aug. 1.—Lewis J.
