S. and Great Britain ?%pert* Verbal Exchanges gr?ves Counter Proposals Forbid Allies ''Slamming Door in Enemy's Face" BERLIN June 6 I By The Associated -. ,., __ While the German corre f'cndents at Versailles continue to ? ke a gloomy view of the forthcom . answer to the German counter ^posais, official circles in Berlin, ?deed wholly by surface indications, 'pear more hopeful regarding the ???'?her trend of events. The slight 'one of optimism which ' ?--,? project? : itself into the Berlin ?tlmstes of the situation are born of tha conviction that a basis for verbal Hgotlations is gradually being cre ?Md g position for which Count von gfoe'kdorff-Rantzau and his colleagues ?n the peace commission have been mnoMvring diligently since the first notes were exchanged. Suspicion prevails in some quarter? jg-the Wilhelmstrasse that the Entente probably W1-' av!ii! itse!f ?f neutral in Hftintion by way of breaking the ice. Political observers here believe that !< ount von Brockdorff-Rantzau at pres? ent holds a slight strategic advantage forrea:ons outside those that might be j (attained in his counter proposals. The trace of optimism which has ! b?en asserting itself in the past forty tight hour? i? explained by events which, it is believed here, will ulti ? tnttely work out to Count von Brock? dorff-Rantzau's advantage. These factors are to be found in the Ps.-i? strike, fresh Polish aggrandize? ment. French machinations in Rhenish Prussia and the reported American and British opposition to the Entente ?rr.r..-. nil of which, it is believed in Berlin, are conspiVing to bring the En? terte'? alleged adamantine front into immediate jeopardy. Germany's op imism is by no means overreaching itself. It is based, ather, on the mo.lest expectation that is view of the liberality and boldness of the German counter-draft the En? tente leaders will not dare to assume the moral responsibility of slamming th? door ; the face of Count von BweMorfP-Rantzau and his fellow en? voys.

It is understood the answer, in the main, is a satisfactory acceptance of the proposals. Admiral Kolchak's reply, however, makes reservations concerning a Con? stituent Assembly and also in respect to dealings with new ?nates formed from old Russia. The proposals to Admiral Kolchak, according to dispatches from Paris on i May 27, did not provide for actual for- I mal recognition of his govern nient, but ' were considered equivalent to formal recognition, which would be accorded later to a government based on a (.on stituent Assembly. The proposals! offered Admiral Kolchak money and : supplies to maintain the ail-Russian' government, provided he promised to hold elections for a Constituent As sembly as soon as he reaches Moscow; \ or. if conditions are too disturbed to \ hold elections, to convoke the former Constituent Assembly. He also was re? quired to recognize the independence of Poland and Finland and to come to an amicable arrangement with other existing governments in Russia re? garding their future status, either within or without the future Russian state. The all-Russian government is to be? come, a member of the league of na? tions, and submit to it any frontier disputes with Poland or Finland and my disputes with autonomous Russian .-'ates, such as the Baltic provinces, Lithuania, Transcaucasia and the Transcaspian administration. Othei conditions concern recognition of the Russian foreign debt and assurances against the old idea of land holding. The solution of the land probier,! is to be left to the Constituent Assembly. British Rout 'Reds9 On Caspian Shore Bolsheviki Evacuate A I e x a n d r o v s k9 but Recapture S ar a pul LONDON", June ''..-Under pressure from British forces, the Bolsheviki have evacuated Alexandrovsk, in the Trans-Caspian territory on the eastern shore of the Caspian Sea, according to advices received here. The British had bombarded the town and British air? planes had dropped bombs on it. The Bolsheviki have recaptured Sara pul, on the Kama River, southwest of Perm, which was one of the important towns taken by Admiral Kolchak's forces in their spring advance, a Bol? shevik wireless message asserts. The tiiypatch also states that the Bolshe? viki are continuing to advance in this region. German forces on the Kslhonian front are said to be aiding the Bolshe? viki, in an officiai statement issued at F.sthonian headquarters and cabled from Stockholm. The statement reads: "There was violent fighting on the Oatschina front throughout Tuesday, and the battle was renewed on Wednes? day. On the southern front the Ger? man Landwehr, instead of pushing the enemy back from Riga, is trying by all means to advance to our line." Hungarian Bolsheviki Advance in Slovakia PRAGUE, June r, < By The Associated Press.) Admission was made to-day by t)r. Irobar, Czech Minister here, that the Hungarian Bolshevik army had achieved unexpected success over thftjpCzech troopH in Slovakia, who were reported ?till to bo retreating. The situfction in Slovakia is said to be very serious, with moat of the rich districts in the hands of the Hungarians, whose advance, it is believed, can be checked only by the assistance of French troops. The damage caused by 'he advance of the Hungarians is ?aid to exceed 1,000,000,000 crowns (f200,000,000), ac? cording to the estimate of Dr. Irobar. Dead Bomber Identified as Italian Red Cor.tlnned from page I of every city in the East have been asked to look out for her. Louise Berger, according to the po? uce records, is the half-sister of Carl Hansen, who, with Arthur Carr?n and Charles Berg anarchists, was killed in a mysterious explosion in a Harlem apartment in July, 1914. Evidence at the time indicated that they were pre? paring an infernal machine. They were members of the Brescia circle of anarchists, with which Emma Goldman and Alexander Berkman are associated. "Dynamite Louise" Is known to have left for Russia in 1917 with Trotzky. investigation in connection with the present bomb plots developed the fact that she had returned to the United States. A number of detectives from other cities arrived here yesterday, and were made acquainted with the headquarters, haunts and/ meeting places of danger? ous radical groups. The large force of sleuths already working on the case was further augmented by additions from the homicide and narcotic squads. The practice of "mugging" and "finger? printing" also has been resumed, as a more effective way of dealing with all radicals arrested. Dynamite, Not TNT Representatives from the Federal Bureau of Mines also came to New York to assist in examining materials found in connection with the explo? sions. One of these men yesterday up? held the contention of Inspector Eagan that the explosion here was caused by sticks of dynamite and not TNT. Pieces of cloth and felt found near the scene of the attack on the Washington home of Attorney General A. Mitchell Palmer nlso were brought to the city for analysis. The attempt to trace the laundry patronized by the anarchist who was killed in blowing up the Palmer home continued yesterday under the direc? tion of Inspector Joseph A. Faurot, with the assistance of photographs of a col? lar found near the spot bearing the laundry mark, "K. B."' Efforts also are being made to establish the name of the buyer of a felt hat, found in the vicinity, bearing the imprint of "Lam sou & Hubbard, New York." Further aid in the search for the bombers is expected to result from a conference to-day between Governor Smith and Attorney General Newton. ! Governor Smith announced that he would be in New York to-day to confer with the Attorney General on the state's participation in the campaign against the plotters. Bomb in Tenement House Residents in the neighborhood of Seventy-second Street and First Ave? nue were considerably wrought up yes? terday morning by the finding of what is said by Inspector Owen Eagan to be ; a clock bomb in the hallway of an apartment house at 1351 First Avenue. The contrivance was found by Mrs. H. \ Brown, the jan ?tress, and was given to : Policeman Joseph Geharran. The missile consisted of a clock with two short wires attached connecting with two dry batteries. Also attached was a large incandescent globe, the base of which had been broken away and wrapped about with heavy tube tape. The globe was also covered with several coats of a black substance, cal? culated to increase its resistance. No explosive?, however, were found in it. Inspector Eagan didn't believe it had any bearing on the. recent outrages. 2 Russians Taken By Detroit Police DETROIT, Mich., June 6.?Two men carrying I. W. W. cards and credentials from the Russan Federation of Union Workers were taken into custody to? day on a request from the Cleveland police, and are being held for the Ohio officers. The men, who gave the names of Steve Stoykoff and Pano Trpoff, denied that they have been in Cleveland recently, when questioned regarding the bomb outrages of last Monday in which an attempt was made to blow up the home of Mayor Harry L. Davis, of Cleveland. The local police assert they have no information as to the evidence on which the arrests were requested. CLEVELAND, June 6. -Detectives left here to-night for Detroit to ques? tion the two men arrested there, and, if circumstances justify, bring them back. According to information received by the police here the men were in pos session of plans of the homes of Mayor | , Harry L. Davis and other victims of ! ! the bomb outrages. One of the men is alleged to have a letter mailed from here, congratulating him on his "brave work of June 2," the date of the dyna mitings. Other letters found on the suspects are said to substantiate information given to local police that the men were ? here recently. Flynn Takes Up Bomb Plot Inquiry Special Correspondence PHILADELPHIA, June 6.?With the | arrival here to-day of William J. Flynn, ?chief of the United States secret ser j vice, this city became the central point ! from which the Federal government is : searching for the perpetrators of Mon ! day night'? bombing outrages. Another arrival to-day was James T. ! Cortelyou, former chief inspector in j the local post office, who, at the urgent ' request of the government, will devote his entire energies to helping in the bomb investigation. It is said Mr. Cortelyou's former experience in gov? ernment work makes him an invaluable j aid. Both he and Chief Flynn will ?make their headquarters in the Fderal building here. There were several important devel ; opments to-day. One was the finding ! of the bookstore in which it is thought j the Italian-English dictionary was pur j chased which was found in the pock jots of the man who was killed in Wash ' ington by a bomb intended for the home of Attorney General Palmer. ? Conclusions based on analyses made i by experts have tended to strengthen j the theory that the "box" type o: ; bomb was used in each of the explo ! sions, the purpose being to leave nc j trace of the bomb. This, detective: ! say, would explain how the man ir < Washington lost his life through ? premature explosion. As shown by Detective Hugh Ayrei j of the Central Station, who has beer I making a study of the various type! | of bombs, the anarchist may have mis ? calculated the resistance of the zini ?cylinder used in the bomb, or then ?may have beer, a weak spot in the meta ?that gave way under the attack of th< ?sulphuric acid sooner than had beet | expected, thus causing the bomb t< I explode ahead of time. Discovery of the book store suppose< ?to be the one at which the dictionary I was bought was made by an agent o I the Department of Justice, who visite? several Italian book sellers in the vicin ity of Eighth and Catherine Streets. Woman Remembers Customer At one store the proprietor, a woman remembered having sold one of th books to "a tall, dark-haired man wh ?carried a package." The sale was mad about three weeks ago, and the pur chaser refused one book offered hir which was printed by a local firm, pre lerring an edition put out in Milan. The book store is not far from th hat shop of the De Lucca Brothers, o j South Eighth Street. From these fact | the Federal agents infer that the ma ? made the two purchases, that of th j hat and of the dictionary, within j few moments of each other, and the the package which the storekeeper sa '. was either the old or the new heae gear. The local police are investigate the alleged activities of the I. W. V and Bolshevik sympathizers who ai said to have held meetings simultan? ously Thursday night, at which func were collected to be used in case ( "expected arrests." Radicals Planning Five-Day Protest Federal authorities learned yesterdi that anarchists, I. W. W.'s, Bolshevi and other radicals are planning to b gin on July 4 a five days' demonstr tion against the "ruling ciass." Radical headquarters in St. Mark Place, East Fourth Street, East Fi ! teenth Street, West Twenty-nin | Street ai.d among various Sociali i Left Wingers and 1. W. W. groups < the East Side have been quietly ma j ing plans to celebrate the nation I holiday with a series of "protests ? Outdoor gatherings, picnics a: parades are contemplated, with t l avowed purpose of showing up "soc: and economic unrest." It happens that on July 4 a natio wide strike is scheduled to take plai but for an altogether different pi pose. The radicals propose to ta advantage of the strike and, if pos ble, Federal authorities learn, convi the strike into a part of the terr< ist propaganda. The proposed strike now being vot upon by labor unions throughout t country is to be a protest against t Men's White Flannel Trousers Made of fine quality flannels, finely tailored, hanging straight and loose from the hips to a point just off the shoes, and giving those free and easy lines so becoming in flannels, and so effective in conjunction with a hand-tailored sport coat. $9oo $i]oo $1250 F1PTH AVENUE Men's Clothing Shop, 8 West 38th Street LOCATED ON STREET LEVEL imprisonment of Thomas Mooney. The strike vote waa ordered last January at a meeting held in Chicago of dele? gates from 1,100 unions. The ballots are being collected in Chicago by the Mooney Federal Inter? vention Committee. The ballots call for a vote on this proposition: "Pro? vided Mooney and Billings are not granted new trials or freedom by July 4 a general strike shall be called for five days, namely, July 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8." According to W. D. Patterson, of the International Workers' Defence League, Eighth Street and Fourth Avenue, who had charge of the ballot collecting in the New York district, more than 75 per cent of the unions are voting in favor of the strike. "We are not connected with the I W. W., nor has our proposed strike anything to do with ths radicals,"' saic Mr. Patterson. "We have only one pur pose, and that is to protest against the Mooney frame-up. I feel certain tha' the strike will be called." Radicals in Full Sympathy Radical leaders yesterday declare? they were in "full sympathy" with thi strike. "Of course, we favor it," said Eliza beth Gurley Flynn, I. W. W. leader. " am sure that all the radical group will support it." At Socialist headquarters, 7 Eas Fifteenth Street, it was said that So cialists throughout the country wer expressing sympathy with a strike o national proportions. "The Socialist have taken the lead in fighting fo Mooney's liberty," said a Socialist 01 ricial. "It is only natural that w should be planning to participate i the strike arrangements." Dispatches from Washington yeste: day said the Department of Justice ha information concerning the intentin 1 of radicals to divert the strike to the purposes and that the department wi considering steps to prevent any moi terrorist plots.

("Big Bill") Haywood, n tional secretary treasurer and reco rized chief of the Industrial Worke of the World, looked upon the "affaii as he terms the recent bomb outrage as "decidedly unfortunate," and r fuses to comment further except deny emphatically that, he had any co nection with tne plots to destroy li and property. He smiled cynically when allusion was made to "pass No. Z 1,001," by which B. J. Alderdice, superintendent of the Pittsburgh Bu? reau of Police, connected him with the plots. Haywood, who is in prison here for his anti-war activities, entered the prison hospital on Tuesday immedi? ately after hearing of the bomb explo? sions. The prison physician says Haywood has developed symptoms of nervous trouble. By a recent court order Haywood and thirty-six other I. W. W.'s became eligible to release on bail for a re? hearing before the Chicago Circuit Court of Appeals. Several attempts to obtain an acceptable bond for Hay? wood have been futile. Young Woman Arrested In Bomb Plot Search Said To Be Secretary of Fin nish Branch of the Socialist Party, Working as Housemaid CLEVELAND, 0, June 6.?The police are holding for further examination by Federal authorities a young woman, said to be the secrtary of the local Finnish branch of the Socialist party, who has for some time been employed as a maid in a Cleveland home and who is suspected of being one of the terrorist leaders responsible for the bomb outrages of last Monday night. When her room was searched a quan? tity of Bolshevik literature was dis? covered. Mayor Harry Davis to-day received an unsigned letter in which was threat? ened further violence as part of plans to overthrow law and order in Cleve? land. An armed demonstration on July 4 was promised. Senate Bill Would Stop All Immigration WASHINGTON, June 6.?Bills pro? hibiting immigration for rive years and placing more rigid restrictions upon aliens entering this country were in- ! troduced to-day in the Senate. One measure, by Senator King, Dem? ocrat, of Utah, would exclude alien anarchists and others who believe in the overthrow of governments through force, and others, by Senator Sterling, Republican, of South Dakota, would ; amend the present citizenship laws so as to denaturalize aliens who obtain citizenship through fraud or who assist i others to do so. o CLOTHES OF GUSTOM QUALITY TTHE nose of Cleopatra is said to have changed the destiny of the world.

Inez Davilla, former Federal general, it was an? nounced officially to-day, has been killed in battle in Oaxaca after having been in revolt against the government for more than four years. Davilla at one time was Governor of the State of Oaxaca. President Carranza to-day sent a message to the Mexican Senate asking Congress to authorize the national ex ecutive to construct three railways con? necting undeveloped regions of Mexico with those already developed. The tir^t railways suggested by the President would connect a point be? tween Magdalena and Hermosillo, in Sonora, with Ensenada, in Lower Cali? fornia. The second would unite the town of Peto, Yucatan, with Bactalan and Santa Cruz, in the territory of Quintana Roo. The third line suggest? ed would connect Santa Lucrecia, in Vera Cruz, with the State of Campeche, which has no railways. In the introduction to his message the President says that the government hopes to form a centralized railway system, thereby "opening rich unde? veloped regions and ending the present isolation." ===_^"jST.-BRQAPmY-53r':iST^"^^ The Best Men's Clothes from the Best Makers in America?At Gimbels Gimbels do not make clothing!
