The kaiser entered wearing a German field uniform and after indulging in commonplaces about the weather, turned to.a discussion of the war. Somewhat to the embarrassment of the neutral visitors, he suddenly put the question “I suppose the British theory that I was. responsible for the war has got a hold on your own people.” | Before any of his guests could reply, he added: “It is curious how this theory seems to fascinate my enemies. Yet the people who accuse me of having caused the war are the very people who previously testified to the) earnestness of my desire for peace. “Why is it that you neutrals always talk! about German militarism and never about frees : A By PERRY ARNOLD with a pledge of “better govern-|the front today " » Russian despotism, the French craving for! . ». statt Correspondent | ment” under republican rule |x.

Rockefeller Hides in Hotel Here SER DEFENDS HIS COURSE IN WAR HIS ROOM IS SECRET EVEN; NOT ILL NOW William Goodsell Rockefeller, railroad |magnate and almost as rich as his brother, | John D. Rockefeller, the oil king, was hiding in the New Washington hotel Tuesday. After considerable work by a reporter; was learned that Rockefeller had regis« tered at the Washington on a private regis: b try—one not accessible to the public. ‘ Furthermore, he left emphatic instruc- tions with the management that he was not to be interviewed or seen under any condi- tions. Instructions were left with the desk clerks that even his room number should be ~ kept a secret. It is believed his room is on the 10th floors i since it was learned that C. A. Goodnow, assistant to A. J. Earling, president of the © Chicago, Milwaukee & St. Paul railway, with — whom Rockefeller is traveling, had room 1007.’ “I don’t want any publicity while I am in Seattle,” Rockefeller instructed the hotel management. “I don’t like it.” Secretiveness is not a new trait in him. During the “money trust” investigation in New York, he barricaded himself in his ~ home to escape subpoena servers. He was before the public last when his physicians said he was too ill to travel to the | |New York hearing, after the subpoena was — finally served on him in Florida. That his health has improved since is ine |ferred from the fact that he has taken a | cross-country trip to Seattle. He is accompanied by his wife, President 4 Earling and Goodnow. The party took an automobile ride over Seattle Tuesday morn- ing. Milwaukee officials reported the party will remain in Seattle for three days at least and will leave for the East afterward. They are inspecting the Milwaukee system. SAYS BAD MORAL CONDITIONS LOWER VALUE OF HER PROPERTY Mrs. Veronica Renko, owner She told the board that because | st a Rullging: at JA5 Rie ey.

Then Inspector Powers put Lillian on the train and started her for home, AND NOW SHE'S GOING TO MARRY “THE FINEST MAN IN THE WORLD” That much of the story appears on the police records, The facts of that much have been printed in newspapers. But in a certain drawer in Inspector Powers’ desk is the eplloque— the way it all came out. The epilogue is a note, a dainty, well-bred little note, directed to “My very good friend, Inspector Powers,” from Lillian it thanks him very earnestly and simply for saving her with his faith, and It tells him that she is very happy and will never leave Spokane again.
