BAVARIA NOT TO
ESCAPE DISHONOR
IN WAR PLOTTING
Proves She Was Accomplice
of Berlin and Vienna; Blood
Balh Is Prepared
London, Nov. 29. —Newspapers
here devote much space to discus
sions of the revelations made by Ba
\wria in publishing official telegrams
which passed between Berlin and
Munich just before the war broke
out in 1914. They agree that the
guilt of Germany and Austria, per
sistently denied during the past four
years, has been proved by the Ba
varian government.
"Germany has been challenged
again and again to produce the
whole correspondence between Ber
lin and Vienna during July, 1914,"
says the Times. "She never has
dared produce it. Will the new gov
ernment dare—just to show the gulf
between it and its predecessors? Ba
varia has proved she was an accom
plice of Berlin and Vienna. She sup
ported them until they tost and now
she shall not whiten her character
in the eyes of the Allies by blacken
ing the records of her confeder
ates."
"The Kaiser, after taking every j
possible step to throw the Allies off j
their guard, struck, expecting in a i
few weeks to have the world at his j
feet," says the Mail. "The revela- |
tions made by Bavaria will not sur-.
prise the Allies nor dispassionate
historians in neutral countries."
"Thus was the blood bath pre
pared. is the Kaiser to be allowed to
go without trial?" is the comment of
the Express.
The Morning Post says that Dr.
Solf, in appealing for modification of
the armistice terms, is following ex
actly the tactics disclosed in the pub
lished telegrams.
"It now appears that his repre
sentations of starving conditions in
Germany are false," the newspaper
continues. "No doubt there is hard
ship in Germany, but whose fault is
that? So far as the associated gov
ernments are concerned, domestic j
dissensions in Germany serve mere- j
ly to put them on the alert against [
ihat treachery which is ingrained in
the German."
Cunard Line Loses Half
of Total Ships by War
Now York. —Fifteen steamships, '
aggregating 206.76!" gross tons, were
lost by the Cunard Line during the
war, it is learned here. All except
two were sunk by torpedoes or
mines. The Campania and the As
tania were lost through accidents.
The tonnage sunk represents approx
imately one-half of that possessed
by the line at the outbreak of the
war. Nearly all of the Cunard liners
were well-known Atlantic grey
hounds, the largest of which was the
Lusitania.
The Anchor Line, a subsidiary of
the Cunard, lost eight ships, includ
ing the 14,340-ton Tuseania. The to
tal tonnage loss of the Anchor Line
was 65,4X8. A list of the ships lost,
with their tonnage, follows:
Cunard Line—Lusitania, 30.396;
Franconia, 18,150. Laconia. 18,099;
Transylvania, 14,500; Iverniu, 14,278; |

recently unearthed a mysterious
package In her compartment. The

woman of spirit site grabbed "up a
pistol, whereupon the porter fell upon
his knees and begged for mercy.
With a little persuasion he produced
from beneath the young woman's
berth a dozen more similar packages.
They aggregated several pounds of
opium.
Other Americans on board were
summoned and it was decided to turn
over the opium and the porter to the

Food Plentiful in Germany;
Sugar Crop Shows Excess

publishes an article under the cap

Oetelshofen, who argued that there
could lie no question of a shortage
of food in Germany, liuut that it was
urgently necessary to reduce rations.
The writer pointed out that Ger
many must have an abundance of
sugar, because most of the German
sugar hitherto had been used as raw
material for munitions, and now Ger
many had a sugar harvest of about
1,808.000 tons, as compared with a
peace consumption of only 1.200,000
tons. He said the potato supply also
must benefit from the fact that it no
longer was necessary to extract spir
its from potatoes for munition pur
poses.
"Even after the armistice," the
writer said, "there Is abundance of
food in Germany for feeding the pop
