Satisfaction in buying — because of economical cost. —in using—because of assurance of best results. —in eating the goodies it raises because they are pure and healthful. Calumet contains only such ingredients as have been approved officially by the U. S.

We don't know how large your cups are, nor how strong you like your tea, nor what flavor you like—for instance: Ceylon-India makes many more cups than Japan.

E. F. POSITION IS COMPLEX ONE ## Overseas Steps for Possible Action Against Germany Being Followed Closely in Official Washington. (By Associated Press.) Washington, March 15.—While technically still under the direction of Marshal Foch, American troops on the Rhine would not participate in any allied advance into Germany without specific directions from President Wilson, it was said today at the war department. Officials said the situation, as far as the American forces were concerned, was a complex one. The United States is the only nation having troops on the Rhine, which has not become a party to the treaty of Versailles, it was explained, and consequently the American detachment still is governed by the terms of the armistice. Under those terms they still were subject technically to the orders of Marshal Foch as the supreme allied commander. ### Conference Important. Steps being taken overseas for possible military action against Germany as a result of the revolution were being closely followed here. Interest centered in Marshal Foch's conference today with the allied commanders at Mayence and in the reports from Paris that after this conference he would call a meeting of the supreme war council. The United States is not now represented on that council. The American forces on the Rhine consist of about 13,000 troops under Maj.-Gen. Henry T. Allen. ### SENDING MORE TROOPS. Paris, March 15.—France contemplates sending three more army corps to Wiesbaden, Neustadt and Bonn, thus doubling her forces along the Rhine, according to the Petit Parisien. Reports reaching here state every step has been taken to maintain order in occupied districts of Germany. Information would seem to indicate the utmost calm is prevailing in Germany, although severe censorship in Berlin may be responsible for lack of detailed news from that city. Advices from other sources, however, indicate the reactionary movement begun Saturday morning is confined to Berlin and that mobs are busy looting stores in some quarters of the city. Military forces at Leipzig appear to favor the new regime, while a contrary view of the situation is taken by the people generally, it is reported. The German national assembly has been summoned to meet at Stuttgart Tuesday. # TRANSFER OF COUNTY FUNDS DECLARED ILLEGAL (Continued From Page One.) The commissioners likewise refrained from making any statement as to what would be done, except to say that a thorough perusal of the opinion of the county attorney would be necessary. Approval of the transfers in question was refused by the commissioners on the ground that they had not granted authority for them, but this, the county treasurer claims, has at all times in the past been left to his discretion and approval by the commissioners of the monthly reports showing such transfers were made without hesitation. # IRISH PROFESSOR TO TELL OF PRISON LIFE (Continued From Page One.) at 10 o'clock, and members of the various Irish societies will attend in a body. The Rev. Father M. McCormack will be celebrant, the Rev. Father M. O'D. Barry, deacon, and the Rev. Father Meade, sub-deacon. The Rev. Father English of Whitehall will be master of ceremonies. The panegyric will be delivered by the Rev. Father James O'Shea, who will speak in Gaelic. The latter portion of his sermon will be in the American language. There will be no parade to or from the church. The afternoon celebration will be featured by a parade, which will form at the Federal building at 1 o'clock, and the principal downtown streets will be traversed. James A. Murray will be the marshal and the following aides will assist: Thomas Murray, Barry O'Leary, Harry Thompson and Bernard Clarke. The order of position assigned to the organizations will be as follows: Grand marshal and his aides. United Spanish War Veterans. Members of the American Legion under Commander Bassett. Returned soldiers and sailors not members of the legion. Pearse-Connolly fife and drum corps. Pearse-Connolly club, 1,000 members. St. Mary's boys' band. Thomas Ashe branch, Friends of Irish Freedom. Casey's military band. Ancient Order of Hibernians. Knights of Columbus. Catholic Order of Foresters. Patrick H. Pearse branch, Friends of Irish Freedom. Robert Emmet Literary association. Other organizations friendly to the Irish cause. Carriages and automobiles. Immediately after the parade there will be a mass meeting at the court house steps and several local orators will address the assemblage. In the evening, as is the usual custom on St. Patrick's day, the celebration will close with several dancing parties, and the proceeds will be devoted this year to the purchase of Irish bonds in the name of the Hibernians. The general committee in charge of the evening entertainments is announced as follows: John J. Caplis, chairman; J. M. Brown, secretary; W. J. Sewell, treasurer; M. J. McDonough, John Gibben [sic], P. J. Boyle, J. J. Murphy, J. J. Lynch, [list continues at the head of column 3] ## Column 3 Anthony Sullivan, W. E. Deeney, T. J. McCarthy.

J. Harrington, secretary of the committee. The campaign will continue until the middle of April and it is expected that more than $50,000 will have been raised by that time. Only half of the county has been solicited and the various workers announce that they have little or no trouble with collecting money for the cause. The celebration of tonight and tomorrow will in all probability materially benefit the cause and considerable money is expected to be donated. # SUBSTITUTE RESERVATION IS ADOPTED BY SENATE (Continued From Page One.) Democrats—Johnson, South Dakota; Walsh, Montana. On adoption of the original Article 10 reservation last November the vote was 46 to 33, with only four democrats—Senators Reed, Gore, Smith of Georgia and Walsh of Massachusetts voting in the affirmative. The vote on Article 10 completed the senate's reconsideration of the 14 reservations adopted in November, but several new proposals remain to be disposed of before the vote on ratification. Most leaders thought tonight, however, that the end would come this week. ### Democratic Lines Tighten. Senators agreed that virtually the only hope of ratification lay in the possibility of a serious break in the democratic support of the president. Instead of breaking, however, the administration lines tightened today as Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, democratic leader, passed word that he had confirmed his belief that Mr. Wilson would not accept the new reservation. Senator Hitchcock did not disclose details of his communications with the White House but informed his colleagues he had been told the president found the Article 10 substitute as objectionable as the original reservation. The president's stand and the adamant cohesion of the republican majority combined to bolster up the position of the administration leaders in the senate and the 14 democrats who supported the reservation on the roll call represented less than half the democratic strength which had been promised for the republican substitute as originally drafted. Senator Simmons of North Carolina, who had been in charge of the compromise negotiations for the democrats, himself voted against the reservation after a draft of his own, providing that the United States should be bound only to exercise its friendly offices in protecting other nations, had been rejected, 51 to 27. ### Other Substitutes. Among otehr [sic] substitutes offered from the democratic side was that written by former President Taft, but it failed to get a single republican vote and was beaten, 46 to 30. The draft framed in the recent bi-partisan conferences also was presented by the democrats and was voted down, 45 to 31. From the republican side Senator Frelinghuysen's substitute denying any obligation unuder [sic] Article 10 went down, 59 to 17, the leaders of both parties standing against it. An effort will be made tomorrow to set a time fo rthe [sic] vote on ratification but the prospect of an agreement was uncertain tonight. Several senators were absent and other reservations to be offered may prolong debate. Just before adjournment Senator Owen's proposal that the British protectorate over Egypt, mentioned in the treaty, was to be regarded as "merely a measure to preserve the integrity and independence of Egypt during the war" was taken up then. # GERMAN REVOLUTION BELIEVED AT AN END (Continued From Page One.) Foch, but no such message had come when the department closed. ### Report of Strike. The state department had an official report of the general strike in Hamburg with the military in control and no disorder. The message did not show when it was filed, however. Other advices were largely summaries of press accounts from Germany or from cities near the German border. There was much speculative discussion again in war and state department circles today as to the status of General Allen's troops on the Rhine, in view of the fact that the American forces alone are there under armistice conditions. Disagreement was expressed as to whether they would be under the orders of Marshal Foch as supreme commander. Some war department officials thought that technically the marshal's authority might extend still to General Allen's command. Other officials, how- [story continues in column 4, below the Vanderbilt item] ## Column 4 # FINANCIER SERIOUSLY ILL AT HIS HOME [illustration: portrait of a man, captioned "Cornelius Vanderbilt"] Brigadier-Gen[eral? Cor?]nelius Vanderbilt is seriously ill at his home in New York of influenza, according to reports received here. Rumors that the general's condition was alarming were denied by the family physician. General Vanderbilt served throughout the war as a brigadier-general. [German Revolution story, continued from column 3] ever, held that the treaty of Versailles had abrogated the French leader's authority, at least so far as the Americans were concerned. ### Academic Quesion [sic]. In any case Secretary Baker's view appeared to make the question purely an academic one. He said General Allen was vested with authority to preserve order in his area and that any other action contemplated involving his forces would have to await specific approval from Washington. Military action by any of the occupying forces, it was pointed out, would be contingent more on the character of the revolutionary change in Germany than on the revolution itself. ### Situation Obscure. The present political situation in Germany, it was said, was so obscure as to defy diagnosis in its true perspective until time discloses the real purpose behind events thus far reported. It is well understood, therefore, that for the present at least, General Allen will confine himself strictly to a maintenance of the status quo in the Coblenz sector so far as this relates to the maintenance of order. This could be done, it is thought, without interference with any progress the German population may seek to make. Should the strike extend to the American sector, as is threatened, General Allen's situation might become more involved. Inhabitants of the sector would not, it was thought, be permitted to suffer for necessities of life and the line of communications of the American army must be kept open. While General Allen has large discretion as to measures necessary in such an emergency, it is believed that beyond warning the strike leaders against any acts having this effect he would scarcely do more than operate public utilities with troops and such civilians as he might need to replace strikers. ### Germany Split. In reviewing the German political situation as shown in press advices, officials noted the apparent split between northern and southern Germany over the new government. They also saw signs of a rekindling of the radical spartacan movement as a result of the re-assumption of power by the reactionaries. Unity of the radical elements in Germany also was imminent, it was pointed out. Different branches of socialists in various parts of Germany were reported as merging and it was thought the general strike was only a step to further disorders and anarchy. ### CROWDS DISPERSED. Berlin, March 15.—Messages from Hamburg report crowds collected Sunday afternoon in the streets of that city, especially in front of the palace of justice, but that they were dispersed by the police and troops. The trade unions and the socialist parties later called, which demanded the immediate release of political prisoners, and a general strike was proclaimed. A general strike also was declared for today in Nuremburg. A message from Schwerin declares the regular troops there are solidly behind the new government, but that the workers at the gas, electrical and water works have struck. ### WILL STAND BY EBERT. Copenhagen, March 15.—The Social Demokraten's correspondent has been in telephonic communication with Dresden, Stuttgart and Munich and says all southern Germany swears it will stand by the Ebert government. The Saxon, Bavarian and Wuerttemburg troops have placed themselves at the disposal of the old government and the national assembly, the correspondent asserts. He states that the reason the old government went to Stuttgart was to summon a meeting of the national assembly there. ### TO REPRESENT FRANCE. Paris, March 15.—M. Bruyere has been appointed by France as its unofficial representative at Stuttgart, provisional seat of the Ebert government in Germany, and will leave late today for that city to watch events. Maurice Paleologue, general secretary of the foreign office, paid a visit this afternoon to Dr. von Mayer, German charge d'affaires here, and informed him of M. Bruyere's appointment. Dispatches received by Dr. von Mayer confirmed the French official view that the hold of the Kapp government in Berlin was not likely to be of long duration. His support was considered by the charge, he indicated, to be hardly more than that of military adventurers. The Kapp adherents, according to Dr. von Mayer's information, had learned by today they [story continues at the head of column 5] [advertisement: Bon-Opto] # Doctors Recommend Bon-Opto for the Eyes Physicians and eye specialists prescribe Bon-Opto as a safe home remedy in the treatment of eye troubles and to strengthen eyesight.

PHONE 4035-W. ## Column 5 had no chance to succeed, but still were trying vainly to obtain support of labor parties. This state of affairs was recognized in all its seriousness by the Ebert government. Therefore hope is entertained that an agreement will be reached and that Berlin streets soon will be cleared of wire entanglements, machine guns and armed troops. ### Several Persons Killed. Although this counter revolution has been orderly it has not passed without the clash of arms and bloodshed. In various cities fighting has occurred, participated in by mobs and troops, and today several persons were killed and others wounded in the suburbs of Berlin, when rifles and machine guns were turned on the crowds. Hand grenades also were exploded in front of the headquarters of General von Luttwitz, reactionary minister of defense, but did no damage. Much interest should attach to the meetings of the national assembly called for Tuesday at Stuttgart. ### Traffic at Standstill. The underground railway service and rail traffic generally in Berlin was at a standstill today. The water supply had been restored but gas and electric supplies were still cut off. No newspapers appeared except special sheets of the Lokal Anzeiger, which in accordance with a govemnment [sic] decree contains only news pleasing to the government. The public is very skeptical of reports thus published. One man remarked, "They are throwing bait at us," as he read the promise of the government to obtain a food supply. Another remarked: "We are not so stupid as to believe that three-quarters of Germany supports the new government." ### Old Government Favored. The Lokal Anzeiger asserts the reichswehr and other garrisons are declaring for the new government and that resistance is found at only a few places. The national German party and the German people's party in Berlin have declared against the Ebert government and have demanded of the new government that all parties willing to co-operate in reconstruction of Germany shall be invited to collaborate. A meeting of the committee of senior members of the Prussion [sic] assembly has resolved not to recognize dissolution of the national assembly, but refrains from declaring for or against the new administration. # PERSHING'S ADMIRERS WANT TO ELECT HIM Lincoln, Neb., March 15.—A campaign by admirers of General John J. Pershing to secure his nomination as a republican candidate for the presidency was formally opened here today with the filing with the secretary of state of a voters' petition to place the general's name on the April 20 primary presidential preference ballot. Mark W. Woods, chairman of a Pershing-for-president organization, gave out a statement claiming General Pershing will accept the nomination "if he is the choice of the people." # FIVE BRITAIN MANDATES ARE ALLOCATED MONDAY London, March 15.—Premier Lloyd George today in the commons announced the following mandates had been allocated: German East Africa to Britain and Belgium. GermanSouthwest [sic] Africa to Union of South Africa. German possessions in the Pacific ocean south of the equator other than Samoa, to Australia. Samoa to New Zealand. The German island north of the equator to Japan. For the last score of years the population of Holland has been increasing between 1½ and 2 per cent annually.
