EX-KAISER REPORT ED NOT TO HAVE I' ,- BEEN INJURED William's Private Secreta ry-Denies That an At tack; Was Made on the Ex-Kaiser, but There Are Persistent Reports in Dutch Circles. Doom, Holland, June 13. An at tempt against the life of former F.m peror.William of Germany was made at 5 o'clock Wednesday afternoon, accord ing to persistent rumors here. Details of the reported attempt to assassinate the former emperor are veiled in mystery, but it is now assert ed "that William escaped without. injury- . A villager, at first thought to he a Belgian, hut later identified as a Ger man, is said to have entered the castle by the upe of a false permit and then tried to kill Count Hohenzollern. M. I'hereboom, private secretary to the former emperor, told the Associated Tress this morning that no attack had been made on William of Hohenzollern. Despatches received on Thursday night reported a Belgian, who succeeded ed in gaining admittance to Doom castle, the residence of William of Hohenzollern, had attacked the former emperor and wounded him in the jaw. Since that time J.he report has been current that an attack had been made, but no confirmation of it has been re ceived. A Berlin --despatch received Friday night stated a newspaper at Baden had learned "from a trustworthy source" that Count Hohenzollern was critically ill, but there was no intima tion his condition was the result of an attack upon him. MANUFACTURERS CAN NOT KEEP PRICES UP GRAVE CRISES FACE THE WORLD TO DAY They are Warned That Agreement! vith Dealert are Illegal. Washington, D. C, June 19. .Warn ing that agreements between manufac torers and dealers, which prevent deal era from reducing the eelling prices of manufactured articles, are unlawful was founded to-day by the department of justice as part of its campaign to lower the cost of living. Indictments recently were obtained against the Colgate company, Attor ney General Palmer stated, charging criminal violations of the Sherman act for procuring agreements with dealers to adhere to fixed re-sale price.- Ab sence of formal contracts will not avoid the provisions of the law, ac cording to the attorney general, as in 1he Colgate the agreements in some instances consisted in the exchange of letters or in purely oral conversations. General reduction in prices is ex pected by officials of the department a a result of the clear definition of the law as it is pointed out that many merchants have been unable to co-operate in the campaign to lower living posts because of the fixed prices on certain 'manufactured articles.

Problems More Serious Than Two Years Ago Are to Be Consid ered at Conference of Boulogne. London, June 19. A conference be tween Premier Lloyd George and Premier Millers nd of France has been arranged for this aftc-noon and Sun day at Hythe, the watering place in Kent which was the scene of the nota ble conference between the two prime ministers in May over the German in demnity terms.. . The Hythe meeting is preliminary to the conference at Boulogne, France, on Monday, at which not only France ajid Great Britain, but Italy, Japan. Bel- glum and Greece will be represented. From Hythe the premiers . will pro ceed early on Monday for Boulogne. Great interest is, being taken here in the meeting of representatives of the great powers at Boulogne, and there is much speculation here in view of the grave problems demanding ' solution throughout Europe and the Near Kast. The original idea was for a meeting rreimers Lloyd Cieorce and Miller- and, but the conference seems to have been expanded to a meeting in which France, Great Britain, Italy, Japan, Belgium and Greece will participate. Newspapers of lxmdon, calling atten tion to the serious issues affecting the relations of the allies with Russia, Tur key. Germany, Hungary and Poland, re mark the state of the world is more perilous than it was two years ago. and call for "clear decisions based on singleness of purpose and free from in dividual self-seeking."' The menace of the Turkish nation alists in Anatolia exceeds for the mo ment in the view of editors here, other dangers, -the situation amounting, ac cording to several estimates, to the out break of a new war. Mustapha Kemal Pasha, leader of the nationalists, is said to control Anatolia completely, ex cept for a small area held by the British in the neighborhood of Ismid and some erntory around Smyrna controlled by .reece. His forces comprise 3i,000 fighting men, who are well supplied with munitions and have abundant vailable reinforcements. What re mains of the Turkish government is eclared to be helpless and its troops, which are reported to be utterly un trustworthy, have been recalled from the Ismid peninsula. Additional anxi ety over the situation has been caused by the belief that Mustapha. Kemal is acting in accord with the Russian bol shevik government although there have not yet been any reports of co-operation. Against the Turkish situation and other distractions with which the Boulogne conference will be faced, may be set apparently reliable reports fhat hopeful progress ha been made rela tive to the opportionment of the Ger man indemnity as between Great Brit ain and France, which lately caused friction. Arrangements . which will probably satisfy the claims of Italy to compensation are also under consider ation, it is understood. t POLISH ARMY IS IN DANGER Two Cavalry Regiments Annihilated and 30,000 Taken by Bolsheviki FALL OF MINSK IS EXPECTED Large Bodies of T r o o p s May Be Forced to Surrender TROUBLE INCREASING JN ALAND ISLANDS Finland Continues to Send in War Ma ferial People Barely Restrained from Proclaiming In , dependence. Stockholm, June 19. Popular ex citeraent is growing in the Aland is lands, in the Baltic between Sweden and Finland and only the restraint of leaders is preventing a proclamation of independence by the people there. Mr. Sundblom and Mr. Bjorkman of the Swedian mission to the Alands have been subject to indignities and al lowed neither to communicate with their families nor to see anyone. Finland, it is asserted, continues to send war materials, guns and ammun tion into the Aland islands, and is said to have increased the garrison there by 400 Finnish speaking soldiers. These troops marched through the streets of Mariehamn, the most important town in the archipelago, yesterday. Rest dents of the Alands are refused per mission to leave the islands, but ref u trees are landing daily in Sweden, hsv ing made the trip across the Baltic in small boats. Berlin, June 18. Alarming reports ol the military situation on the Polish- bolshevik front are received by the l ageliene Kundschau from Ureslau. The Poles have suffered important reverses it is said, and in some parts of the front largo bodies of troops may be forced to surrender. Among the losses reported to have been s tine red by the Poles, the report says, are two regiments of cavalry which which anilulated and 30,000 prisoners taken by the bolsheviki, who also have captured 16.1 cannon. The fall of .Minsk is expected, it is asserted. The front of Dunaburg to Podolsk is crumbling gradually and belief is ex pressed that Warsaw may.be occupied by troops. General Haller's men at Cerstoehow have mutinied and ex pelled some of their officers. Near Kiev, the Poles have withdrawn to the line they occupied on April 20, where the third and seventh army corps are surrounded and may be forced tocapitu late. Fugitives from Kiev have arrived in Lemberg. telling of a lack of food and munition, and of wholesale de sertions by Polish troops. F.xeitement prevails throughout Pol and, the despatch says and state docu ments have been sent to Posen. The Polish minister to Germany told the Associated Press to-day he had re ceived no such reports and that he con sidered them "incredible."' U.S: NAVAL OFFICERS UNDER COURT ORDER AMERICAN WON TITLE.
