Of the few New Yorkers aboard the De Kalb, Louis Fishoff, twenty years old, of No. 522 West 185th Street, had had the most thrilling experiences. ‘ He had served thirteen months on submarine chasers, destroyers and other patrolling craft, This is his story: “I was over around Brest and St. Nazaire with the suicide flotilla. That's what they call chasers and converted yachts. My first boat was the converted American yacht Ca- rola Il, i “She was 300 miles off the Azores on Aug. 20, when @ submarine came up 900 yards away, We spotted each other about the same time, but couldn't do a thing, because the gale nearly sent us into Davy Jones's Locker. “We had to keep going ahead al) the time in order to keep from flop. ping over. Same with the U boat, We were in sight of each other all tho time for more than four hours, and then the submariae beat it under, ‘That storm did the Carola, She wa put out of commission when we made port, she was go badly used up.” Fol HE a.

Just how much strength this party has it is impossible to say since all its operations have been conducted under secrecy, but even its oppon- ents admit that it is important enough to be considered as a factor in the muddle growing out of the | revolution. This is only one development in the intensely interesting problem being | solved in the riéh country west of the Rhine with Cologne as the political capital. There 1s, in the first place, throughout the Rhineland a double- headed government composed of re- volutionists on one side and officials of the imperialistic regime on the other, who for the moment are work- ing more or less together for the com- mon good. In Cologne, for example, the old Burgomester and his Staff are still at their posts in the city hall, while nearby are the offices of the re are thrashed out and the business of the city is kept moving, The same towns, it least two with distinctly different | ideals, One of these is composed of Liberal Democrats and Social want to see the establishment of a great republic, which will include not only all of Germany but Austria, wi Berlin as the capital The second group is composed of the Catholic, or Centrist, Party, which is said to desire a Rhenish W ts who |lemer, former Governor of the Rhine er of the and and at one time a mem Prussian Ministry, is mentioned as | It sible President of the project- Jed repub’ Out hese thgee parties there Jare many people who no doubt would |be glad to the re-establishment lof the German empire on a pre-war Jbassi, although such a project ix not advocated openty.

Jones, who had planned to start “the rule of the Workers” in Central Park yesterday and had to call it off because of wet grounds and Police Capt. Edward Bourke, who arrested him for making seditious utterances, was sent to the psyco- pathic ward in Bellevue Hospital to- day to have his mental works exam- ined by experts. “The commitment tu Bellevue was ordered by Magistrate n Eyck in West Side Police Court. The original charge that Jor made seditious, utterances in nouncing to reporters that he 1@ ia favor of disbanding the army and navy was changed late yesterday to lisorderly conduct, and it was on latter oharge that he was arraigned to-day. Jones was all alone in court. Not one of the thirty or forty Bol- sheviki who went to the Park yes- terday to aid in establishing the Jon platform, which includes the repug. diation bts, the division of all unused land among the pee-pul and \ general do-as-you-please life for everybody, was on hand to give him moral or any other sort of support The first witness called to-day was ® Herald reporter. He said Jones told him that he agreed with all the nuq merous planks in the platform which he wants the people to adopt, which would destroy Government, do away with the courts and put everybody on a level as to wealth and position. Acting Park Commissioner Wilia Holly testified that Jones did not «@ for or receive a permit for his pr posed assemblage of crape hangers in Central Park, and Capt.
