LONDON, Nov. 11. The Ad
miralty has picked up a
German wireless addressed from
"the command -and soldiers'
council on the cruiser Strass
burjr" to "all ships, torpedo
boats, de-troyers and sub
marines in the North Sea."
The message refers -to the
terms of the armistice and de
clares: "This would entail the destruc
tion of us all. German comrade?,

unheard of prasumpnon.
"Strong Englfsli forces are re

London. Nov. 11. Dr. Solf, the Ger
man .Foreign Secretary, has addressed
a message to Secretary of State Lan
slng requesting that President Wilson
lnterycno to mitigate "the fearful con
ditions existing In Germany."
Dr. Solf says, according to a Ger
man wireless despatch received here
to-day, that he feels It his duty to
draw Pre:ident Wilson's nttentlon to
the fact that the enforcement of the
conditions of the armistice, especially
the surrender of transports, means the
starvation of millions, and requests
.that the President's influence bo di
rected to overcome this danger.
The President, he points out, has
declared that he did not wish to make
war on the German people and did not
wish to Impede its peaceful develop
ment, "The German Government lias re
ceived the conditions of the armistice,"
continues Dr. Solf. "We had to accept
the conditions, but feel It our duty to
draw the President's attention most
solemnly and with all earnestness to
the fact thai the enforcement of the
conditions must, produce among the Ger
man peoplo feelings contrary to those
upon which alone the reconstruction of
& community of nations can rest, guar
anteeing a JusA and durable peace.
"The Germfm peoplo, therefore, at
this fateful' hour address themselves
again to the President with the request
hat he use his Influence with the allied
Powers In order to mitigate those fear
ful conditions."
