Accuse American Journalists
of Causing Rupture Belwceu
Poland and Germany
By JOSEPH HERRINGS
Special Cable to Evening Public Ledger
Covvrloht, 1019, lu .Yio York Times Co.
Berlin, Dec. 17 (via Copenhagen, Deo.
1 9).
Count Kessler, Qormany's minister
to Poland, arrived In Berlin nt 8
ociock tills morning, accompanied by
Uio personnel of the legation and sixty
German Inhabitants of Warsaw, who
thought It best to return home nftcr
-.-oiana uroKe relations.
Count Kosslor rmvo nnfr a iitnlnmun
which accuses two American journal-1
wis, merman ana Strickland, of tho
Saturday Evening Post.
"These two camo to Warsaw with
largo sums of money," bays the Count's
Hitticmcru, -to intrigue against us and
Oermuny generally. Almost at tho I
sanio time the Polish national commit
tee lu Paris sent as Its representative '
Professor Grobske to Warsaw. It is
Ullte evident that the French seek to
use their allies for the gratification of
thfllr lust for revenge an ' for the same !
purpose to poison the relatione be-
twoen Germany and Poland, despite .
tlieTdct that General Pllsudski, chief
of'tho Polish Government, has no In
tention of golngr to war with us.
"His cabinet, however, which mainly
.relics on the support of tho Social
Democrats, Is opposed by the bour
geoisie and intellectuals. This opposi
tion recelvpd u great lncentlvo when ,
the above named agents of tho En-
tonto arrived, who, miking uso of tho '
newspaper Przeglad Wlochorny, stirred ,
up tho people to demonstrate against
ird harass us' I
Planned Bolshevik! Coup
The "Red Count," as Kessler wai I
nicknamed, is accused by the hostllj?
Polish press of having brought a ro?"
ruption fund of 20,000,000 marks wltJi
which to organize a Uolshovlst coup
In Warsaw.
When he llrst arrived there, Novem
ber 24, he established the German. le
nation in tho Hotel Uristol, but ho was
driven out ono night by a mob invad
ing tho hotel and shrieking: '"own
With Kessler! Death to tho 'Keu
Count'!"
The mob broko open the legation
looms and searched the papers there,
throwing them about in wild confu
Hlon. This happened several times.
When the proprietor asked tho
Count to leave tho hotel tho latter
slept several nights at tho houses of
different friends, who were unwilling
unough to shelter him for fear of draw
lng the wrath of tho patriots on their
own heads. Finally the legation was
establlshed.in a lemoto sido street.
Soon, however, the Government It
self informed Kessler of two conspira
cies against him, of which one at least
v,as engineered by foreign, agents.
Ono" plan was to lmade the legation
and tho other to kill Kessler in the
street.
ijrom other sources camo confirma
tion of the eNlstenco of these conspira
i eles. At tho samo tlmo tho Govern-,
ment, .intimidated by conspirators, de
prived" Kessler of tho right to uso a
cipher In communicating with Berlin,
thus isolating him completely.
, Count Ordered to Leave
On December 13 the Count was noti
fied by an "Official of tho Polish Foreign
Offlco that relation's with Germany
were dissolved and that ho must leave
at once. A few hours later another
oillclal sent by tho Foreign Olllcu de
clared that it was all a mistake and
asked if the German minister would
plo'aso Ignore, tho previous notification
and remain. '" Thereupon Kfesslor '-visited
Foreign Minister Wasieiewsku
who presented excuses because, his
signature had been mado wrongful uso
of and tho culprit in question, Under
Secretary Fillpowitz, had been uum
marily dismissed.
On 'tho following Sunday Kessler
was again notified by tne Foreign
Ofnco that relations had been broken.
Ho, was requested to leave within
twelve hours. Tho Count's party was
not molested en routo to Berlin.
Tho Berlin morning papers have
tried to explain the reason for the
budden ruthless rupturo by citing- Pol
ish'" designs on Danzig and certain
' parts of East and West Prussia, ana
they bay that the Poles, incited by
French agents, will go sp far as to
claim certain parts of Silesia, mainly
thoso where, 'coal and Iron ore are
mined, though of the inhabitants thero
are only 10 per cent said to be Polish
and the country has been German
owned for hundreds of years.

Diamonds and Gold Gifts and Silver and
Sparkling Semi-Precious Jewelry and Christmas
and Gimbels
And diamonds? '
Diamonds worthy of becoming "heirloom gifts" diamonds worthy of
being handed down to future generations as "Victory mementoes" of the year
War ceased. Pure stones of great brilliance, faultlessly cut,
matched not only the bigger stones of a design, but down to
the last, least little diamond tucked away somewhere in the
brilliant setting.
And oh, the settings! Oftenest platinum "cut" to
heighten .brilliance, and "galleried" to show, off the whole
diamond with its many "facets." Sometimes of gold some
times platinum "heads" with gold "galleries." But always
exquisite always artistic always carrying out some glorified design of flower
or star or light!
Solitaire Rings of great beauty at 160 up to $1150.
Diamond Dinner Rings at $50 to $450 one, two or three good-size dia-
v. m

monds, set in platinum "lace," fairly powdered with tiny, bright stones.
Gold-set Diamond Rings at $20 to $200.
Platinum-set Brooches more platinum lace-work!
And anywhere from one to nghtv-one diamonds at $65 to
$500.
Platinum-set Bar-Pins and lace-pins at $50 to $450.
Platinum-set diamond La Vallieres at $20 to $140
and with full dress in fashion again La Vallieres are
doubly in fashion.
Diamond Bracelets big stones, sunk into the gold
or big and little stones together, set in exquisite, intricate designs of platinum
or gold at $25 to $265.
Diamond-set Lockets at $8 to $25.
Diamond-set platinum Wrist-Watches at $300 and $375.
