IIERR HOHEXZOLLERX WRITES
TO BERLIN FOR MONEY.
Revolutionary Government Allows
600,000 Marks to Meet Pres
ent Indebtedness.
WEIMAR, Thursday, Feb. 27. (By
the Associated Press.) The former
German emperor, it is learned from
competent sources, recently appealed to
the German revolutionary government
for money. It was said in his behalf
that it was impossible for him to con
tinue living upon the bounty and good
will of the Dutch nobleman in whose
castle he now resides.
Herr Hohenzollern, it Is said, de
clared he already had been forced to
borrow 40,000 guilders from his host
and could not continue as a debtor. He
asked that he be allowed a portion of
his private fortune.
The government, after considering
the matter, agreed to his request and
Instituted a detailed investigation to
determine what portion of the former
emperor's supposed fortune really was
his and what portion belonged to the
government. Investigation showed that
the former ruler might legally claim
73,000,000 marks as his own, but the
povernment decided to allow him tem
porarily only 600,000 marks to meet
present indebtedness and future ex
penses. The correspondent's informant, in
calling attention to this development,
declared it put an end to rumors that
the former emperor had been able to
take large sums of money with him
when he fled into Holland.
General Is Asked to Advise With

Cuban Election Laws.
WASHINGTON. Feb. 28. Major-Gen-
eral Crowder, judge advocate-general
and provost marshal-general of the

accept an invitation to advise with the
Cuban president and congress on the
revision of election laws. Secretary
Baker today announced President Wil
son's approval of the t"ip.
In making the announcement Secre
tary Baker said:
"You may be interested to know that
I have requested the state department
to notify President Menocal of Cuba
that the war department is very much
pleased at the invitation extended by
the president of Cuba to General Crow
der to go to Cuba and consult with Cu
ban legal authorities on the subject of
modifications of their election legis
lation, and has arranged to permit
General Crowder to go. He will leave
shortly.
"The war department and the army
generally feel that this is a very fine
tribute to General Crowder, whose
services in Cuba are known to the Cu
ban people, and evidently have been o
highly valued that the president re
gards the call to General Crowder as
a call to a man in whom the Cuban
people have the highest confidence."
General Crowder, while serving with
the American army of occupation in
Cuba, was assigned to draft the elec
tion laws for the new republic and
later to supervise the first presidential
election.
