Anruln? on this .basis the ctTancol-
lor entered Into a long discussion of
the question to prove that the burden
of responsibility sksted dn Germany's
foes. T
The chancellor's statement regard
ing the question of a peace leaguo fol
lows: Cry for Peace.
"If at and after the end of the war
the world will only become fully con
scious of the horrifying destruction
of life and property, then through tho
whole of humanity there will Ting out
a cry for peaceful arrangements and
understandings whloh, as far as It Is
within human power, will avoid tho
return of such a monstrous catastro
phe. This cry will be so powerful and
so Justllled that it must lead to some
result.
"Germany will honestly co-operate
In examination of over endeavor to
find a practical solution and will col
laborate for Its possible realization.
This all the more If tho war, as wo
ezpoct and trust, shall Create political
conditions that do full justice to the
free development of all nations, of
small as well us great nations.
'Then the principle of justice and
free development, not only on the
Continent but also on the seas, must
be made valid. This, to be sure. Lord
Grey did not mention."
Peculiar Character.
The chancellor pointed out that
Viscount Grey'B Ideas In regard to
International guarantees of peace
seemed to posxess pe'cullar charac
ter. In that thev took into considera
tion only British wants. Neutrals,
which during the war -d to acceot in
silence British domination of tho
neas, were to form a union after the
war, when, England hopes, she will
have conquered Germanv In order to
guarantee that the British plans will
prevail under the new conditions.
The Chancellor said It was known
on reliable authority that in 1915
Great Britain and France nromlned to
Ilussla dictatorial domination of Con
stantinople, the Bosporus and the
west shore of, the Dardanelles, with
the hinterland, and that Aijta Minor
should be divided among the entente
powers.
These plans, he continued, probably
wero of Interest for neutrals, who
were expected to iruarantee this or
der of things. The British government,
lie asserted, had kept silent in regard
to these plans. In spite of questions
asked In Parliament.

Owing to the threats madtt against
tho troopers by tho chauffeurs, motbr
cycle oporalors, muleteers, wagon
drivers, mountod orderlies, cavalrymen,
and artillerymen, Private Joo Maloney
disclaims membership ' In pio troop.
When accosted by a stranger, ho says,
ho belongs to "Troop Q, Cow Cavalry."
General Funston ordered tho mem
bers of Troop A to servo as mounted
policemen and patrol tho entire camp
to break up the galloping of horses,
the trotting of mules drawing heavy
wagons and ambulances, and enforco
the automobile regulations. Tho Jitneys
and service cars aro forbidden to lety
moro than a reasonable charge for
hauling tho soldiers to and from Ban
'Antonio. Alt automobllo operators aro
required to conflno their speeding to
elghten miles an hour, and must dim
their blinding headlights In camp after
"taps," The samo regulations apply
to the chauffeurs of the officers' au
tomobiles. The first day the tro6pcra did police
duty they reported moro than 2CK) au

Hoycr. He commanded the chauffeur
to stop, but the latter gave him onl
a supercilious smile and continued
speeding. Itoyer spurred up his horse
and overtook the machine. His second
command to halt was answered by Gen
eral Greene, who said. "I am tho .com
manding officer of this ramp, and I am
In a hurry. Get out of the way and lei
me pass."
Private Itoyer replied, "That Is un
doubtedly true, hut even the command
ing officer cannot speed on my post
when I have orders to prohibit It. I
will hove to take your name and th(
number of your machine and report
you."
And General Grecno was held until
