Virtually All Lines of Tram
way Company Blocked by
Demonstration
By Associated Press '
Denver, Col., Jan. 3.—Demonstra
tions last night against the collection
of a seven-cent stret car fare, re
cently approved by the State Public
Utilities Commission, resulted In
blocking virtually all the lines of the
Denver Tramway Company.
A crowd collected in the heart of
the bualhess quarter, pulled trolley
.poles from the wires and cut trolley
ropes, halting all traffic. Tho crowd
built a bonfire in the street, but did
not destroy any of the company's
property. As incoming cars reached
the congested area, the line o! stalled
cars grew until it extended in Fif
teenth street, the principal street dar
artery, from Larimer street to the
State Capitol, fifteen blocks away.
The only personal violence report
ed occurred in the stockyards quar
; ter where workmen, refusing to pay
the increased fare, ejected giotorman
and conductors from the cars, which
they then brought into tho city and
abandoned. Most of the men in the
crowd downtown were recruited, It
was said, from these workmen.
When Chief of Police Hamilton
i Armstrong accompanied by another
officer, arrested a man detected cut
ting a trolley ,rope, a crowd esti
mated at three thousand persons sur
rounded the officers and became, so
menacing that the prisoner was re
leased.
After an hour of turmoil tho com
pany made an effort to resume serv
ice but as soon as a car began to
move it was surrounded by men who
jerked oft the trolley. The company
then abandoned efforts to Btart the
car and the electric current on all
lines was shut off.
The stopping of the city lines also
prevented operation of lnterurban
trains to Boulder, Golden and other
cities and towns.

Food Pleat Useless,
Says German Paper
London, Jan. B.—Until Germany
establishes a stable government It
will be useless for its people to plead

terms of the armistice, the Vosslsche
Zeltung declares. It says:
"All that sort of thing is only cal
culated to contuse the real issues
and to miss the only way that leads
out of disaster.
"It is a matter that concerns all
the allies, not France alone. The
allies know very well what they
ought to know. They have decided
to help Germany when their condi
tions are fulfilled. Their demand is
the restoration of order in Ger
many.
The allies demand visible guaran
tees that Germany shall not fall out
of one despotism into another. They
demand that the internal condition
of Germany shall bo placed in a po
sition which shall forbid anarchy."
