Kcw Chancellor Kemcmbered for
His Activity in Speeding T7p

F.y the Aworlatrd Press.)
The names associated with the new
revolutionary movement in Germany
Indicate its reactionary character. It
appears that Germany is in the throes
of the frequently predicted counter
revolutionary monarchist struggle.
Dr. von Kapp. reported as havins
assumed the chancellorship, is a ior
mer conservative member of the
Jteichstasr and Reneral director of the
German agricultural society. He was
one of the deputies who early in 1918
urged the government to speed up
U-boat building. He became presi
dent of the fatherland party, the no
torious I "an - German organization
which urged that Germany carry on
the war to the bitter end. After the
abdication of Emperor William and
the signing of the armistice. Dr.,Jiapp
was one of the men for whose arrest
the independent socialists clamored
on the ground that lie and his associ
ates had been responsible for the con
tinuation of the war and the hinder-
- lng of peace.
Prussian Head Military.
Major-General Baron von Luettwitz,
who, according to the dispatches, has
been named commander-in-chief, was
military governor of Belgium in the
early days of the war. He later was
a commander on the Verdun front.
When the German treaty came up for
action by the povernment last June,
he was one of the leaders of the mili
tary party prominent in opposition to
the peace terms. He has an American
wife, who was a Miss Caiy of Cleve
land. He always has been classed as
thoroughly Prussian.
Before the war General von Luett
witx held the posts of military at
tache of the German embassy at Lon
don and later at Petrograd. He was
born April 9, 1865. His father. Max
Freiherr von Luettwitz. died in 1887.
His mother, lrma von Qual-Gyula, is
till living.
The new commander-in-chiefs mar
riage to Miss Cary took place July
3 4. 1S92. She was born January 6,
1869. The couple have two children
lrma and Gustav.
Monarchies Bide Time.
There has been a strongly held be
lief that the Pan-German monarchist
party was merely biding its time and
awaiting an opportune moment to
seize control of affairs. This belief
caused the allies worriment when
they considered the nearness of for
mer Emperor William's retreat at
Amerongen to the German border and
prompted their strong representations
to Holland of the danger to the peace
of Germany and the rest of Europe
of his presence there. In response to
this the Dutch government promised
to keep a close guard over the ex
ruler. Former Crown Prince Fred
erick William also is a refugee in
Holland, but his retreat at Wieringen
is further removed from the German
border.
The fart that the development is
apparently of a monarchists nature
will cause attention to be paid to any
news, from Holland regarding the
former royal personages. Indications
have come from Berlin that the re
actionary movement was possibly
precipitated by the fact that a Ho
henzollem prince, Joachim Albrecht,
was about to be tried and possibly
imprisoned in connection with the
recent demonstration against French
officers at the Hotel Adlon.
Government Forewarned.
Dispatches from Berlin yesterday
telling of the discovery of a reac
tionary plot would indicate that the
government had explicit foreknowl
edge of the attempt and this fact
makes explanation of the reported
easy success of the anti-government
forces in entering Berlin difficult. It
may be noted that the names of the
two men most prominent in military
affairs under the old regime. Field
Marshal Von Hindenburg and General
Ludendorff, so far have not been men
tioned in connection with the new de
velopment. The field marshal indeed
had only recently announced his will
ingness to become a candidate for the
German presidency, while Berlin dis
patches in January also credited Gen
eral Ludendorff with the intention of
becoming an active participant in the
next German political campaign.
If there has been an effective over
turn of the present government in
Germany, the effect upon the relations
between Germany and the allies and
.the carrying out of the terms of the
treaty of Versailles can hardly be es
timated. Germany Held Impotent.
With a militarist regime in control
in Germany there seems little doubt
that the outside pressure for the strict
execution of the stipulations of the
peace pact would be markedly in
creased, particularly from such na
tions as France and Belgium. It has
been generally conceded, however,
that the military requirements of the
treaty which have been already put
into effect have rendered Germany
militarily impotent ror a long time to
come, at least so far as any aggres
sion on her part might be concerned.
This, however, is perhaps not truo of
the French army leaders, among
whom Marshal Foch in particular has
been insistent in pressing for greater
military protection1 against Germany
for France than was provided for by
the peace pact signed last June.
jfamily and has not taken any part in
iriininoMttcs -
General Arthur von Luettwitz, ac
cording to Mr. Cary, has not evinced
opposition to the peace terms. Bu
according to information In letters
from his sister, a cousin. Walter vo
Luettwitz, has been active in th
Xoske government in Berlin, and has
been active in his opposition, in con
nection with the military party, to th
peace terms.
A letter arrived only today to Mr.
Cary by his sister, Frau von Luett
wits, who was before her marriage in
1892 Miss Mary Curtis Cary of Cleve
land.
"In this letter, which was dated
February 19," Mr. Cary said today,
"my sister wrote of entertaining; New
York friends in Baden-Baden, which
convinces me that my sister's hus
band has remained in retirement.
"I do not believe he can have re
entered politics, especially at thl
time, because my sister would not
wish him to do so. I know from word
from them that they realize how
short-lived a present-day German
government may be and consequently
how dangerous it may be to the In
terests and even to the life of the
Individual to become connected with
any temporary government.
"I am thoroughly satisfied my
brother-in-law has not the siightes
desire to mix In any of the present
political fraya in Germany."
The marriage of the former Miss
Cary to Arthur von Luettwitz, who
was in 1892 a young German royalist,
created one of the sensations of the
day in Cleveland. They were in
stantly attracted to each other, and
their engagement was announced be
fore Miss Cary returned to Cleveland
at the end of the summer. The out
come was followed by a stir among
Cleveland friends.
It remained for Von Loettwitz, who
came to America in the winter of
1SS1-2. to win the hearts of social
Cleveland. Those who had expressed
their regret at the match instantly
changed their opinion when they be
came acquainted with the brilliant
and attractive young noble.
Cleveland will Ions; remember the
way in which Von Luettwitz won the
hearts of everyone he met here, as
well as the wedding that was cele
brated in the old Second Presbyterian
church, which stood at Euclid avenue
and East Fourteenth street.
VOX KAPP BORS IX THE V. S
Xew Chancellor "Ruthless" Advo
cate During War.
NEW YORK. March 13. (Special.)
Dr. Wolfgang von Kapp, the new
German chancellor, was born in New
York, June 24. 1S58. His father had
come here at the time of the revolu
tion of 1848.
Dr. von Kapp is president of the
fatherland party and during the war
he was an ardent advocate of the
"ruthless" movement and vas con
stantly urging the construction of
more U-boats. To the U-boats he
gave credit for the fact that Japan
did not send a great army to Europe.
He had so sharp a quarrel with ex-
Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollweg
that there was talk of a duet In that
affair his agent said that Dr. von
Kapp would "seek satisfaction at the
moment when the chancellor Is no
longer under the protection of the
war, his position and the muzzled
press."
Dr. von Kapp was a former con
servative member of the, reichstag
and general director of the German
agricultural society. The German
fatherland party, of which heMs head,
urged that Germany carry on the war
to the bitter end. After the abdica
tion of Emperor William and the
signing of the armistice Dr. yon Kapp
was one of the men for whose arrest
the independent socialists clamored
on the ground that he and his associ
ates had been responsible for the con
tinuation of the war and the hinder
ing of peace.
Major-General Baron von Luettwitz.
who has been named coimnander-in-chief,
was military governor of Bel
gium for a period in the early days
of the war. He later was a com
mander on the Verdun front. When
the German treaty came up for action
by the government last June Gen
eral von Luettwitz was one of the
leaders of the military party promi
nent in opposition to the peace terms.

Officials Reported in Danger!
of Molestation.
CIVIL WAR IS EXPECTED
Attitude of Aloofness and Detach
ment Toward Revolt in .Ger
many is Expected.
PARIS March IS. (Havas.) The
allied missions in Germany have heen
put in a serious position by the over
throw of the Ebert government, and
are in danger of molestation, accord
ing to a dispatch from Saarbrucken to
the Temps. It is expected, the dis
patch adds, that civil war will break
out in Germany.
The opinion expressed in official
circles at the moment Is that the al
lied governments will take an atti
tude of aloofness and detachment
toward the civil strife in Germany
and permit the German people them
selves to determine the form of their
government.
Disorders Held Unfortunate.
The armed disorders in Germany
are looked upon as most unfortunate
both for the country and the remain
der of Europe at the time when re
construction had been begun.
The news of the new development
in Berlin was received by a consid
erable part of the official and
diplomatic world at the Hotel Con
tinental, where the foreign corre
spondents were giving a luncheon to
President Dcschanel. The ambassa'
dors of the United States, England,
Italy,. Japan, Spain and Belgium and
numerous foreign office officials were
present. The news reached the com
pany just as it was being: seated.
Reports Received at Lnncbeon.
It was whispered to President
Descbanel and spread along the tables
on either side of him and. became at
once the dominating subject of the
conversation.
Telephone messages were received
from time to time during the lunch-
on repeating the telegraphic reports
f the happenings fo the German
capital.
President Descnanel in nis speecn
did not refer to the events in Ger
many.
The greatest evil which could nap-
pen to JSurope and the worw, ne
said "would be for the allies to allow
the ties that enabled them to become
victors to be loosened."

While shipping board officials
would not concede that there had
been any negotiations with the Hamburg-American
line, it was understood
that the company was disposed to en
ter into a co-operative contract with
American steamship lines. Details of
the contract remain to be worked out,
as the board, it was explained, was
not prepared to- make any further
move in the direction of this develop
ment of American commerce without
the approval of the senate committee,
because a technical state of war ex
isted between the United States and
Germany.
