Pub BY JOSKPH W GRIGG. (Copyright by tha New York World !i?hed by Arrangement.) LONDON, March 16. (Special Ca ble.) On high authority the World correspondent learns that Great Brit ain has already indicated to the E'utch government its deep anxiety about the serious consequences to Europe if the ex-kai.-er should escape to Ger many at this critical moment. It Is . believed the other allies have made similar representations. This first step by the allies, espe cially by the British, was forecast in previous dispatches. The very fact that it is so far the first move of the allies in face of the serious situation ' indicates how certain they are that the pan-German military clique hopes , to restore the ex-kaiser and at the same time the superstructure of the old order. Therefore, the allies, whose policy at the present moment can be epitomized as one of taking no chances, have reminded the Dutch of their responsibilities to .Europe, and to the world at large, in being the ex-kaiser's warden. trial Yrt to lour Ik Belief. In governmental quarters tonight there is still a belief that it would be premature to think the new Ger man government has a strong grip. On the contrary, it Is felt that tlie real crisis is still some days off and that meanwhile there are signs of a rally to Ebert's government. There has been official confirma tion of rioting and general strikes in Pusseldorf and Frankfort, with bloodshed at the latter place. Frank fort was the first to respond to Kbert's call to the workers to strike. There is no confirmation of the re port that the fleet at Kiel has beeu handed over to the revolutionaries. Both governments are said to be seek ing the support of the Independent socialists and so far the latter seem inclined to support the old govern ment. It was stated in well-informed quarters that Noske was forewarned by the allied governments of the plot, but, while admitting there was some thing afoot, he regarded it far less seriously than did those who warned him. He overestimated his own strength and underestimated the abil ity of the pan-Germans to pull off the coup. It is believed the allies have al ready discussed the possibility of a resumption of the blockade in the event of conclusive pan-German suc cess, and it probably would answer to prevent any wholesale attempt to evade peace treaty obligations. Frinre and TtnRlnod Alrr There has been a continuous inter change of news between the allied governments, especially between the British and French, and it is believed a special session of the supreme coun cil will be convened either here or in Paris. While anxious to take all necessary precautionary steps, the British gov ernment Is anxious to go slowly. On the other hand, it is known the French military party may bring heavy pressure to bear on the French government to take hasty action. So far it is understood there has been no interchange of views with President Wilson. II f "! . i II - . - fit r-M I ST w i V V . i 1 I. h was.1. -ri Copyright by Underwood & L'nderwood. , JOIty D.

This decree was declared to be effective after 4 o'clock this after noon, but it was considered question able whether this threat would be put into operation. With the exten sion of the strike and the determi nation of the strikers, that would mean serious bloodshed. It has been estimated that 60 were killed In yesterday's fighting, al though this figure is semi-of f icially denied. There were fresh collisions today In the neighborhood of Pots- damerplatz. PARIS, March 1. General Merker and several officials understood to be representatives of tTie new govern ment have left Berlin for Stuttgart, eat of the Ebert government. Chancellor Kapp Is regarded now as having lost his influence, this being shown by his refraining to at tempt to form a cabinet and announc ing that he is leavine the former gov ernment officials to carry on the work of their departments. These officials are believed to favor the old government. There is, however, a militarist element determined to fight to the end for control and there is a workers' element equally determined to oppose the militarists, advices-indicate. BERLIN". March 16. The associa tion of German officials resolved at a meeting yesterday to strike unless the new government retires. The printers are still on strike and as the gas supply has been cut, no news papers can appear. The officials of all the Imperial state services have been ordered to resume their duties immediately. Severe regulations have been issued against illicit traders and profiteers. WIKRIXGEX, Hollanw. March 16. (By the Associated Press.) There have been much feasting and. other celebration within the quartet of the former crown prince here since the news of the new developments in Germany began to reach Wieringen. William is reported to regard the situation joyfully, but is said to have assured the burgomaster that he will .not attempt to leave Holland. LONDON", March 16. A number of Germans of high rank -have visited Amerongen during the last few days, the Central News correspondent at Amsterdam reports. It is not known whether they have been able to com municate with former Kmperor Wil liam. It is declared, however, the correspondent adds, that none of them was allowed to talk personally with the ex-ruler. CENSORSHIP HELD ARBITRARY G-ttin News Out of Berlin Re ported Extremely Difficult. LONDON, March 16. The London Times correspondent at Berlin, under date of March 13, giving a history of the Kapp revolution in Germany, says that Ignatius T. Lincoln, former mem ber of the British parliament, exer cises the censorship in the most ar bitrary manner. He insists upon ar guing with correspondents, sentence by sentence, seeking, under guise of the censorship, to influence their ex pression of opinion. His method is to refuse to pass whole messages, tell ing the correspondents to rewrite, thera. The government for some time, says the correspondent, had knowledge that something was brewing. The Kappists apparently had planned the movement for two months ahead, but their hands were forced by circumstances. SP1GIINTS Relieved by Well-Known Medicine of Superlative Merit. Spring ailments are due to impure, impoverished, devitalized blood. Among them are pimples, boils and other eruptions, loss of appetite, that tired feeling, a run-down condition of the system, and sometimes chronic weaknesses made worse. Hood's Sarsaparilla combines the roots, barks, herbs, berries and other medicinals that have been found, in many years of intelligent observa tion, to be most.effective in treatment of these ailments. Successful physicians prescribe these ingredients for diseases of the blood, stomach. liver and kidneys, and in cases where alterative and tonic ef fects are needed. Hood's Sarsaparilla is the spring medicine that purifies, enriches and revitalizes your blood, increasing power of resistance . to disease. For a laxative take Hood's Pills. Adv. GERMANY 'RCDDERLESS SHIP' Happ Project Is Declared Boclie Political Trick. THE HAGUE, March 16. (By the Associated Press.) The Berlin corre spondent of the Kieuwe Rotter damsche Courant. telephoning to his paper last night said: "Germany is a rudderless ship. Kapp's undertaking proves increas ingly to be not an achievement, but a boche political trick. The new gov ernment Is seeking , on all sides for support, but realizes that support is nowhere to be found. If the situation were not so serious one could see the humorous side of this operetta revo lution. "Kapp supported his efforts to win over the independents by proposin to form a cabinet embracing the ex tremist left to the farthest right, but this naive plan naturally miscarried. SOUTHERN GERMANY IS QUIET Many Towns Reported Supporting Kapp Government. THE HAGUE, March 16. The Han delsblad's Berlin correspondent sums up .conditions in various towns of Germany as follows: "Uulet prevails in Coburg and the entire Southern Germany. Halle and also East Prussia are quiet, but in favor of the new government. In many interior towns there is a gen eral strike, among them Munich and Hamburg. At Hamburg, however, the gas, water and electrical services are in operation. "Serious demonstrations by the so cialists, independents and commu nists have occurred in Elberfeld. Bo chum and Leipsic In street fighting at Dortmund seven persons were killed and several wounded." Munich Garrison Loyal. MUNICH, March 16. The diet held a brief session this afternoon In order to receive the resignation of the gov ernment.

(Copyright by the New Tork World Hfthed bv Arrangement.) PARIS. March 16. (Special cable.) In principle all human habitations are nationalities in Russia. In prac tice there are still many privately owned domiciles. The same principle applies theo retically to other human needs, like fuel, light, clothing, household equip ment and so forth. That is to say. the soviet government aims at con trolling the supply of everything man requires and distributing It equitably among the population. As a matter of fact, however, Rus sians are paying for practically every thing they receive, Just as other folk are doing the world over. The peasant - owns the home In which he lives, as an American farmer does, and a Moscow or Petro grad artisan resides in a rented flat not dissimilar to that occupied by his counterpart in New York or Chicago. There is this fundamental difference, however: The moujik's ownership of his cottage is wholly dependent upon the mercy of the Soviets since in theory title to all real estate, with such improvements as it may possess, s vested in the Soviets and the urban flat dweller pays rent to the state instead of to a private land-; lord. Right Contingent on Use. For while a man may still posslss personal property the house in which he lives, this right is contin gent upon his use of the place. Indeed he may make only one use of it as an abode for himself and his family. Moreover, if soviet authority judges It too large for one family, part of it is likely to be requisitioned by the state and turned over to the lodgers at a fixed rent paid not to the house holder, but to the state. ' Generally speaking, only the small workmen's dwellings have escaped nationalization. The bolshevikis' earl iest act indeed was to seize nil man sions belonging to the rich, expel their former proprietors and install there in members of the proletariat who had been living in the slums theretofore. It is an axiom of the communist party that no man shall make money out of real estate. If there are any exceptions to the rule they are be yond my ken. To the best of my knowledge and belief nobody except the soviet government is deriving paofit out of realty. Kxpliiillng I Forbidden. As far as I could discover, however, there is nothing to prevent any in dividual from acquiring possession of a small house so long as he means to occupy it himself and not exploit it capitalistically. Of course he would have to face the risk of losing his home at any moment through n tionalization, for having proclaimed the policy of public ownership of all buildings, the Soviets may logically take over any structure they please at any time. From the communist viewpoint the failure to abolish rents is an admitted flaw. I was informed a few days be fore I left Moscow that the council of the peoples commissaries had al ready drawn tip a decree of rent aboli tion which may by this time be in effect. According to George Melnit chansky. who when he helped Trotz ky publish a bolshevik paper in New iork was known as George Melcher, the main reason that rents were still obligatory was the difficulty of ere ating in so troubled a period the tre mendous organization that would be necessary for keeping houses in re pair and seeing to it that everybody was properly lodged.' With the do feat of Denikine, the last of soviet Russia's armed assailants, it would he possible, he claimed, to start the work almost immediately. Law Tax on Matrimony. Melnitchansky, who being president of the central federation of Moscow's trades unions, is an authority on housing questions, candidly conceded the evils of a system that not onlv forced workers to pay the state for the privilege of having a roof over their heads, but besides imposed a tax on matrimony, which it did bv obliging a married man with a fam ily to pay more rent than a bachelor. In Moscow every individual is le gally entitled to a certain number of) cubic feet of space In which to dwell. the number varying slightly between' central and outlying sections of the j city. Broadly, each person has the right to one fair-sized bedroom, though 1 for the sake of saving fuel the Mos cow soviet ordained that there must be at least two lodgers in every room. One pays so much rent for so many. cubic feet at a rate also depending upon locality, a tenant of quarters in the center of the town being as sessed more than one wno resides in the outskirts. Now, obviously, a man with a family requires more room than a single man, and for additional space he must pay additional rent. Rents are extremely low, averaging scarcely one-tenth of the workers' in come, but considering the fearful cost of food, fuel and clothing this does not help greatly to solve the problem of the cost of living. And while the authorities are extremely lenient In this respect, tenants who don't pay their rent promptly are bound even tually to get Into trouble. Poor Abandon Palaces. It was the bolsheviks' delight in the early days to house their supporters in the palaces of the nobility or of the wealthy bourgeoisie. Poor folk. I OREGON CITY, March (Spe cial.) Negotiations for the lease br sale of the Hawley Pulp & Paper company mills to the Hearst interests have been abandoned, it was an nounced today by- W. P. Hawley, president of the company, who has just returned from San Francisco, where he went for a final confer ence with representatives of Mr. Hearst. Last Fall Mr. Hawley was ap proached on a proposition to pur chase the plant, and a price of $440 a share for the 800,000 shares of stock was agreed upon, but the deal fell through. ast month negotia tions were resumed on a lease basis, the tentative proposal being to lease the plant for ten years, with the pos sibility of a purchase at the termina tion of the lease. Failure to reach an agreement means that there will be no change In the ownership or man agement of the mills, which started operations In 1909: - - STOCK DIVIDEND DECLARED Crucible Steel CompaiiT Issues 125,000 Additional Shares. PITTSBURG. March 16. Directors of the Crucible Steel Company of America late today declared a stock dividend of 50 per cent payable in the common stock of the company April 30 to stockholders of record April 15. It is the first important corporation to take such action since the decision of the United States supreme court affecting stock divi dends. The directors also declared a cash dividend of 3 per cent on the common stock, payable on the same date as the stock dividend, and to holders of the same record. Officials of the company said the stock dividend would mean the issu ance of 125,000 additional shares of stock with a par value of $1,500,000.
