The report today says their information was that Lux- burg had been acting queerly for @ | number of years. United Prean dispatches several weeks ago reported the belief grow: jing in Buenos Aires among Germans | that the German minister was a vietim of dementia. At that time he was under observation. (EDITOR'S NOTE: The ver- dict of insanity as to Laxburg affords Germany an excuse for the astounding revelations of duplicity made public in various intercepted messages by the state department. It would not explain, however, some of the messages serit by Berlin to Lux- burg, indicating an equal facility in duplicity by the German for- eign office. ‘SNOW HAMPERS ROADS IN EAST| WASHINGTON, Jaa. 3—Thou of miles of storm-wept tracks today | hacnpered the work of smashing freight Jams in the East. a] Heavy snow tested ite strength | against Director General McAdoo's to clear tracks for coal ship ints the govern storious.

For two weeks reports reaching here from Viadi- vostok and Harbin have indicated these districts have been plunged into lawlenmness; that Runsian officers are loxing or have lost the semblance of power. Riot Reigns Riot reigns in Harbin. Two Rrit- ish subjects have been mistreated, armed robbers bave plundered a Japanese warehoune, and Russian soldiers have attacked the Miteul Buhan Kaisha, a prominent Japan- ene company. Uniens something ts done by the Runsians to restore order, it ts free ly stated here that measures must be taken to protect the lives and property of foreigners in Siberia, particularly in the Harbin district.

Tomorrow the president will de liver his rafiroad legislation mes sage and ask that it be given a clear track until disposed of. Two chief points of controversy will be the three-year average, sug- ented by the president as the basis for paying the railroads, and the | question of getting back government money Invested in new equipment. Will Beat Suffrage Aside from the railroad legislation, congress comes back without a pro- gram. There in.a vague idea that many tremendous things must be done, but nobody knows just what. Suffragists doubled their activity in an effort to get the Susan B. Anthony amendment thru the house on Jan. 10, There is no reason to change earlier forecasts of amendment's defeat. Legislators returned, reflecting deep interest in the progress of the four senate probes., They learned that none of the four has yet reached a stage where it 1s possible to forecast legislative results.
