Harvard started the scoring In the first quarter, when Ralph Horween drop-kicked a fine goal. In the second period came Casey's touchdown. The third quarter was scoreless and the fourth period saw Yale collect her only points. The game was marred by much fumbling, with Yale on the defensive a greater part of the time.

Nov. 22. Efforts to reach a compromise on a resolution to ratify the peace treaty are going on during the recess of congress, but in the meantime it is pertinent 1tfto disclose the view that prevails in the executive branch of the govern ment concerning the losses to the American people in dollars and cents should the Republican majority re fuse to compromise with the Dem ocrats and thus leave the country without a treaty of peace. First of all the adoption of a concur rent resolution by congress declaring the war at an end would not be regarded ' as legal and as of no more consequence than a speech In either the house or sen ate expressing an opinion that the state of war should cease. If the congress, on the other hand, should adopt a Joint resolution which requires the president's signature, Mr. Wilson could veto It and then two thirds of both houses would :'' be needed to make that joint resolution effective. . Assuming, however, that the Joint res- 1uUoq were accepted by the president or " . BERLIN ORDER BANS TREATY DISCUSSIONS German Government Takes Posi tion That American Senate's Action Strictly American Affair 'Ru'ers Admit That Rejection of j Treaty Surprises Them and I Raises New Question of Future "J H. on Wlegand Berlin, Nov. 21 ( Afternoon.) Thf German government 1h di.splay- ing an attitude of extreme reserve; in commenting on the rejection of the Peace treaty by the American senate. A member of the cabinet whom I called out from a ministerial confer ence this noon at the chancellor's palace made this statement to me: "The government holds the view that the rejection of the treaty By the senate is strictly the affair of America and th-i American people, that it is the expres sion of American public sentiment based upon reasons best known to the Ameri can People. "d that at this time the flermn government should not make the other. "It is the American people's own af fair, and one they will act upon as the Interest of their country demands." , JIKffS CAUMKS SESSATIO News of the senate's action came as a sensation here. Even up to late yes terday the German press and govern mental circles seemed certain, on the strength of Ixmdon dispatches, that a compromise between the opposing fac tions in the senate would be reached, re sulting In ratification of the treaty. The government got Its first informa tion when 1 telephoned a private dis patch containing the news to Presldeut Kbert, Chancellor Bauer and Foreign Minister Mueller. It set Wilhelmstrasse buzzing. Both Bauer and Mueller de clined to give an Interview or comment for publication. All they would say was that the sen ate's action came as a surprise to them. and confronted Germany "with so great a question mark and rendered the Euro pean situation so extraordinarily com plicated" that it was "utterly impossible to see clearly what effect it will have on England and France and what the con sequences for Germany will be." LID PUT ON PRESS This refunal of public comment was rejterated today, and word was passed aiound among the members of the gov ernment not to grant interviews at this time. Furthermore, there is reason to believe it has been suggested to the Ger man press to restrain itself and to in- ( Concluded on Pg Three. Column Two) Denmark Will Vote On Liquor Question Copenhagen, Nov. 22. Since a large majority of the Norwegians voted for prohibiting the sale of liquor, Denmark, too. will soon have a chance to decide ! the drink question by popular vote. The that his veto were overridden, so that legally the state of war had been de clared at an end. this would not af fect any international question but would apply only to domestic questions such as those that have been raised with in the United States concerning the coal strike or the enforcement of war time prohibition or other contracts and obligations. Including the espionage law or food control which depend on the duration of the war. WOCLD FREE GERMANY So far as Germany Is concerned, a Joint resolution by congress does not make a treaty of peace and not only would no agreement whatsoever be in effect between the United States and Germany, but the latter power would be free under international law to retard herself still as technically at war with the United States on all questions af fecting her property at sea or In the United States or elsewhere. Second Inasmuch as a Joint resolution by congress, even If signed by the presi dent, cannot take the place of a treaty of peace, all the treaties with Germany which existed before the war would con tinue to remain abrogated and absolutely no pact or agreement would exist to cover the business or financial tela.

Burgess, Member State Highway Commissioner, and Geo. E. Perringer, Wealthy Rancher, Felled by Robbers Trio of Bandits Make Daring Hold-Up at Claremont Tavern on Linnton Road Friday Night; Five Arrests Are Made Prefacing a daring robbery of 25 guests at the Claremont tavern, on the Linnton road, with the murder of Jasper N. Burgess, state highway com missioner, and George E. Perringer. wealthy Umatilla county rancher, three masked bandits at ,"11:30 Friday night staged one of the most sen sational escapades in Portland's history. Burgess. Perringer and E. R. Mar shall, all of Pendleton, with three girl companions from an automobile partywere dining in a private room at the tavern when the robbers en tered the tavern front door. At a brusque command, guests nearby held up their hands and were marched into the main dining room while one bandit stood guard as the others started a roundup of guests. In the second room searched the robbers found the Burgess-Perringer party and commanded its six members to "stick up" their hands. Burgess Is said to have taken the command llghtl.and to have replied to a threat that thT thief would shoot with the statement, "Go ahead, then; shoot." With the utterance two bullets flashed from the bandit's revolver and Burgess dropped from his chair. dead Perringer sought to close the door through which the bandit had entered. One shot passed through him an dlodged in the wall. He stepped outside the door Into the hall and dropped dead. Three men and two women ar rested at 4:30 this morning at the Bel.evue hotel under the supposition that thev had knowledge of the murder and robbery have practical ly been released from suspicion In that connection, although they are being detained Incommunicado while the possible association with the Idle Hour pool hall robbery is investigat ed. They are Clyde and James A. Huklll, Jack McDormick, Mrs. Helen McDormick and Marguerite Holland. Lieutenant Thatcher, Inspectors Wright and Gordon and Patrolman Wlllett made the arrests. Marshall and the three women are believed to have complied with the first demand of the raider and were not molested. At least five shots were fired, It is said. Two of them Btrnck Rnness. one piercing his head, entering near the nose, and , the other struck his heart. One bul, let took Perrlnger's life after pass ing through the door to the private room. Another, apparently fired from theoorway. went over the ta ble at which the party was seated, passed through a window and crashed through the wall of a rear porch. Burgess. Perringer and Marshall, with three girl companions had stopped at the tavern on their way back to Portland from an automobile ride. POLICE TAKE TRAIL The bandit who killed the two men also helped fine up and rob 25 guests at the tavern. Every available policeman and detective In the city has been detailed on the case. Capture of the guilty parties will carry a reward of $11,000, posted as follows: City of Portland. $1000; Cunningham Sheep & Land com pany, $1000 ; W. Lair Thompson, banker, $5000; S. Benson, chairman state high way commission, $3000; State of Ore gon, $1000. Three masked men entered the tavern, forced all the 25 guests to assemble In the ballroom, where they were lined up and their Jewels and money stolen. Sub sequently all guests and employes, were forced to He flat upon the floor while the tavern safe was robbed of valuables and the bandits made their escape. While one of the bandits guarded the guests the other two searched the build ing, rounded up parties in private din ing rooms and entered the room occu pied by Burgess. Perringer, Marshall and their women friends. It is presumed that the robbers mis took the Actions of the three Pendleton men as a show of resistance and a vol ley' of shots from the . robbers' guns brought the highway commissioner and his companion down. Marshall escaped, but wan thrown Into a state of nervous excitement from which he did not recover sufficiently to describe the fray that cost the Uvea of his comrades. PATROLJU AS LINED UP Patrolman Case entered the building through the basement while the robbers were at work. He was found tn the basement and with the cook and em ployes was lined up with other victims after his giip.ajad .club had been takenv The work of the murderers completed, the trio backed out of the tavern build ing aad disappeared Into the night, their masks still fixed against their Identifi cation. What description that can be offered by victims excited by the -tragedy indicated that the slayers were young, men of medium stature. Police believe today the bandits may have had confederates outside the building. -TRIED TO CLOSE DOOR An examination of the body of Bur gess at the morgue this morning showed that he was shot through the nose and heart Either shot would have been fatal. Perringer was shot through the heart, the bullet passing through the door, which he was trying to close. An inquest over the two bodies will be held at 8 o'clock Monday night at room 446 Courthouse, Coroner Earl Smith an nounced this afternoon. In the Burgess-Perrlnger party at the inn were Miss Laura Hastings. Mrs. Elsie Babcock and' Miss Jane Shelton. TSET nTaT. employed downtown. Miss Hastings, a Benson hotel employe, is said to have known the Pendleton men for five years. They were taken In custody by the police but later released. From them the police obtained Infor mation that as the holdup men ap proached the party In the booth at the Claremont, Burgess thought they were Joking. BL'KO ESS IU.NOHEH COMMAND "Stick up your hands, or we'll shoot," Burgess was ordered. "Go ahead and shooC then." he said, according to the women. He had no more than uttered the words than the shots were fired that killed him. The robbers are said to have crossed the Willamette river In a boat from St. Johns Lumber company. A watchman at the dock saw an automobile drive up and heard one of the men say, "This la not the place." A boat was then located end the ma chine was left standing while the three men started rowing across the river. A short time later they returned, reentered the automobile and drove away, A boat is missing from the St. Johns Lumber company, and one owned by John Red ding has not been found. Tracks nearby indicate the presence of more than three men. " Olaf Olson, a driver for the Portland Taxlcab company, with his, machine, was in front of the tavern. - He beard the shots within and through the win dows saw what was happening. Tak ing his money from his pockets, ha threw It on the floor of the cab. In a few minutes one of the robbers appeared and.' covering him, asked him what he had. DRIVER LIKED UP . . ' The driver told the outlaw he had nothing. Olson was then ordered from the machine, taken within the tavern and lined up with the frightened vic tims of the holdup. Later Olson took the three women who had been In the Burgess party back to Portland.
