Germany Has to Meet More Demands. Berlin. Oct. 20.?Germany is fairly dazed by the demands and require ments of the Entente military and j naval commissions for the housing of } their supervisional forces, which, ac cording to the peace treaty, may have j their headquarters at the seat of the j German government, and place sub I commissions at any dsired point in Germany.. .. The gntehfe has given notice that ! it will send a chief commission to i Berlin, and ten sub-commissions to ! other points. It demands, from Ber I lin. hotel accommodations compris , ing ."oo rooms, housing for 300 non Icommissioned officers and men, and j garage facilities for 60 automobiles, j These arc the requirements for thej [army and naval forces. For the air forces the Entente wants 2<>u rooms in a hotel, 3 00 office rooms, j housing for 45ft persons, and garage I space for *>ft automobiles. The figures : look large to Germans for guests atJ all the his: hotels even now arc happy 10 he able to creep into a bathroom J and snatch some sleep. The Council of States has decided} that the money agreed upon to fur-j nis.h quarters for the Entente mis-j sion. 5.000.000 marks. was notj enough, it is. however, rooms, hotels, dwellings, nxore than money, which i is worrying the government. The government has made a be-j ginning by announcing that it will I consente one hotel which has 1.x ! rooms, and ns?- the building in Wil-j helmstrasse. now the headquarters] <?:' a press division, for otftce space. Another hotel has been con!iseat- j ed "for the air division. That, how-j ever, leaves a h'tfx jrap between what! can he supplied and what is demand ed. Xn? government may perhaps, heed the many suggestions made re cently for using various former royal i and princely castles, which would re-j lieye the^ strain on. the already over:! strained Eerlin hotel. m as i ino mm fire Officials and Newspapers of Mexico City Do'Not iSeem to Realize Gravity of Situation Mexieo City. Nov. 25? (By the Asso ciated Pressh?That .American diplo macy has acted hastily, and without complete knowledge of the fact's is the concensus of the editorial opinion of the newspapers in Mexico City to day in dealing with the situation ex isting between the United States and Mex/ico as a result of the arrest of William O. Jenkins, the American con sular agent at Puebla. The'Mexican government's reply to the demand of the United States for ihe release of Mr. Jenkins is oharact.erized__as a prudent and energetic expression of pubMc sentiment. The Excelsior, affects to see in the American note something akin to Austria's demand on Seryia, and iays ' great stress on the part it expects the I Mexican question to play in the next I,United States presidential campaign. jlThis journal does not see the possi I bility of immediate intervention in ! Mexico by the United Spates. . El Universal criticises what it terms the sharpness of the Ameri can note and,says: "Diplomacy must never be irritated." This newspaper (expresses hope that the Jenkins case J will be "adjudged with a clear mind." i El Democrata. which is always pro ; government, finds in the Mexican note ? "able defense of our sovereignty" and [argues that the United States is witb j out legal right to demand the release of Mr. Jenkins. El Monitor Republieano. organ of I the followers of General Obregon, I says American diplomacy "has. fallen j down lamentably in the Jenkins lease" and finds the demands of the J United States a direct contradiction of j President Wilson's statement that strong nations should not impose on weak nations. It declares that 'de spite our faults and imperfections Mexico has constitutional and judi cial order within the republic." The organ of Gen. Pablo Gonzales, former commander of the Carranza forces in the capital. Mexico Xuevo, says of the Jenkins case that it is a delicate matter, but easy of solution when the true facts are known by the United States, j El Teraldo de Mexico voices the sentiment, which is expressed by all the newspapers that, although, the Mexican government has answered I the United States "energetically." but without petulance." it is hoped there will be no further complications. AH the editorial* today are free from rancor. In them, there is mu.ch speculation as to what the United States will do next. Hilario Medina, under Secretary for foreign affairs, told the newspapers that he considered the. situation "serious but not grave." (E1 Heraldo today publishes a dis .patch from Puebla which says that the rebels Juan T'hara and Fortino A. Ayaquacia. members of the band which abducted Mr. Jenkins, have voluntarily surrendered in order that they may tell the truth of the affair. Mr. Jenkins remains in the peni j tentiary at Puebla. His friends say 1 that he is being treated with every j consideration, receiving dozens of vis ( iiors daily and conducting his busi [ ness affairs from an office set up in j the prison;] j Vienna is Deluged With Beggars. Vienna. Oct. 15.?This place is suf fering from a daily increasing pest of beggars. While a few are crippled soldiers by far the greater part of the swarms that haunt the thorough fares are civilians, men. women and children of all ages, from tiny bare footed ragged tots to old men and old women. Women with babies in arms and others clutching at their skirts, little girls and little boys of school age and old persons parade the side walks in the hotel and cafe districts and pass in steady streams through the restaurants and cafes. Some are licensed, but they are few. The Vien nese beggar white persistent is never abusive when refused. ? S9BH j (Corrected daily At 12 e'elbelr-b*1 Chamber of Commerc*.) Oood Middbng .39:' ...
