SERIOUS CHARGES
AGAINST MINISTER
BERLIN NEWSPAPER
ACCUSES DELCASSE
Says His Whole Career Was Devot
ed To Revenge on Germany
Berlin, Oct. 18.—The assertion is
made by the Taggblatt that Theo
phile Delcasse, Who recently re
signed as foreign minister of France
opposed the landing of French
troops at Saloniki.
“Perceiving that popular opinion
was turning against him,” the Tage
blatt adds, “Delcasse seized upon
the pretext of the Saloniki expedi
tion as reason to resign. He was
thus able to disappear from the pol
itical theater in the attitude of a
man who foresaw calamities and
warned the nation, while in reality
he, together with President Poin
care and War Minister Millerand
brought about the present situa
tion.”
The Vossiche Zeitung says: "Del
casse’s whole career was based upon
the idea of revenge. He entered
parliament with a speech in favor
of a Franco-Russian alliance. He
always represented the idea of war
on Germany. He was inspired by
the late King Edward, one of the
most active workers for the isola
tion of Germany. In 1915 Clemei
ceau thought that Delcasse had dis
appeared from public life never
ngajn to return. But he did reap
pear, and if he is now abandoned for
ever by his former associates their
decision comes too late for France.”

LIFE IN INTERNMENT CAMP
DEPICTED BY WINNIPEG MAN
Says Food is Clean and Wholesome
Crave Something from Home
WINNIPEG, Oct. 19—C. V.
Coombs, a private in the 9th Rifles,
a former Winnipeg newspaper man,
writing from Giessen, Germany,
where he is held a prisoner of war,
throws much light on the daily rou
tine in the internment camps. Speak
ing of the food he says:
“The food is clean and wholesome,
but as our palets are unused to
European dishes, we welcome parcels
from home."
As to our daily camp life he says:
“Our occupations are as diversi
fied as our characters, though few
of them are strictly according to
our taste. Besides me, a British
Tommy is knitting himself a sweat
er. His twelve needles are made
of German wire. His wool he se
cures by unravelling cast-off army
socks.
“A French wood-carver is chisell
ing with a pointless jack-knife a
portrait frame out of which his, wife
and wee war baby are destined to
smile upon him when he is sad. Near
a window a really clever French ar
tist is painting a fiercely mustached,
but really harmless, compatriot.
Three Frenchmen are studying Eng
lish with an ’aitchless’ Tommy as
tutor; a dozen men are reading and
one of them is playing a mandolin
made by French cunning from the
leg of a stool and a cigar box."

IS THOUGHT TO
HAVE PERISHED
NOME, Sept. 25—It is thought that
the Council trail has added another
to its long list of mushers who have
perished traveling it. Yesterday a
report came telling of James Riley,
a well known sourdough having froz
en to death on the Council trail. It
appears that he was mushing from
Council to catch the steamer for
the outside when he became exhaust
ed, and told his companions to mush

on while he rested. When he failed
to appear later, a searching par’.y
was organized but failed to find any
trace of Riley.
He served two terms on the
Nome council in the early days, and
was quite a “scrapper.”

yesterday morning for Seattle, had
125 Yukon and 250 Nome passen
