Berlin, April, 21. Many persons In
Germany are wonaering a little syn
Ically just what punitive measures
will be enforced against the leaders
of the Kapp episode.
' This uprising, it will be remembered,
wag the signal for the troubles in the
Ruhr region and the French occupation
f Frankfort, bo the moral responsibility
Of its authors is unlimited. I have heard
people say that If the government can
not punish Gen von Watter, who tried to
corrupt the troop In the west, it will
never dare to follow ud the others. This
morning, however, Herr Dr. BluncU, im
perial minister of Justice, explained to
me the difficulties which stand in the
ww a wa .tirj auiitiHM pvi
HIGH TREASON CHARGED
- fWe have already arrested Frelherr
von Falkenhusen. Dr. von Paull and one
ether second rate leader," he exclaimed.
They are now In prison in Berlin and
will be tried within three or four months.
We have done our best to find Dr. Kapp,
General von Luettwlt and the rest, but
yau must remember that they were In
. fluentlal men and they still have many
against 20 different persons and placed
a reward of 10,000 marks (normally
12500) for the capture of each. We have
brought the charee of hiarh treason
against them. By means of proclama
tlons. I have warned German citizens
not to give them aid or subsistence."
'It the fugitives are still In Germany
herr minister, what is the trouble with
the German police force that it cannot
find them?" I Interrupted.
, J A ft MX 1 Mi rbiiv
"Ah, but who knows that they are in
Germany?" came the reply. "The Dan
lsh" paper Polltiken recently published a
report that General von Luettwitz had
crossed into Denmark. Dr. Kapp, It is
suspected, has taken refuge in East
Prussia, the most monarchical province
01 vermany. moreover, since uie txien
sion of" Poland Ao the Baltic sea East
Prussia has become almost the same as
a foreign country or colony, and our au
thority Is much weaker there, as the
police are few in number. No, you can
tell the world that the German govern
ment has done Ita best to catch the Kap-
pists, and will punish them severely If
they 'are found."
In the course , of our conversation an
other matter came up, and that was the
cause of the panic on the Berlin bourse
on Monday. ,
CONFISCATION THREATENED
"No law has actually been published.
for the confiscation of foreign securities
In private hands," said the minister, "but
one will be soon. The speculators heard
of it and-plunged Into a wild effort to
rid themselves of England and French
bonds. I wonder If you realize what a
blow this treaty clause deals German
finance? It Is not so much In respect
to the obligations we hold -against the
great western powers, for those were
mostly confiscated by the government in
the course of the war, but, for instance,
with regard to the former German col
onies. Before the war we inyesiea mucn
money in German East Africa. That is
now British territory, and all securities
touching Its resources must be delivered
into British hands.
"Hard as the measure It. however, we
will obey it We Intend to fulfill the
Versailles treaty. We have the names
of all persons holding foreign securities.
and they will soon be summoned tq de
liver them. Those who refuse will be
punished with fines and imprisonment"

Sofia, Bulgania, April 9. (Via Paris,
April 21.) The returns from the
general elections for sobranje (assembly)
members shows that the agrarian party,
kid by Premier Stambouliski, obtained
112 seats, the Communists 48, and the
Democrats 23. The bourgeoise parties
were literally "put out of the ring,'
which simply demonstrates that the peo
ple have lost all confidence in the old
parties owing to the terrible political
t.unders committed In the last six year..
The followers of ex-Premier Rades
ihvov had no show in the elections, which
were held with a greater decree of free
dom than ever before in the history of
Bulgaria. Under the present regulations
the votes register the people's wishes
accurately. The farmers, who compose
85 per cent of the nation, are represent
ed by the agrarian deputies. The Com
munists elected represent the discontent
ed working classes in the cities, poorly
paid state and municipal clarks and
other elements such as discharged army
officers.
Premier Stambouliski, who will soon
reconstruct the cabinet to form a homeo-
j generous ministry, will count on the in -j
evitable cooperation of the agrarians and
' Democrats and hence the Communists
I will be held firmly under control. With
j the country's internal administration
j now formally and actually guaranteed,
j Premier Stambouliski has carried out
j his promise to bridle the Socialists. At
the polls, too, the country has once' more
1 demonstrated that it is made up of 'n-
lustrious and honest peasants who are
inveterate foes of Bolshevism, anarchy
and corruption.

London, April 21. The last three
weeks have broken all records in
the history of Ireland for turbulence,
widespread disorders and clashes,
according to statistics compiled by
Sinn Feiners In a propaganda bul
letin which has just been Issued.
For the week ending Easter, a record
number of raids is reported by the prop
aganda bulletin, which asserts that 1113
were made by the police and military
during that period. The Sinn Feiners
claim that April 3 was the record day,
when 513 raids were made.
SINK FEIXEHS rSSTMBEEED
On other days the number of raids
ran from 100 to 200. The statistics
claim 103 arrests were the total for the
week. "Acts of aggression" for the
week were cited by the bulletin, num-
bering 1310.
The figures do not cover "acts of
aggression" by the Sinn Feiners, which
would probably run into the hundreds.
The bulletin gives details of raids,
claiming that on April 3 the pollen and
military carried out wholesale raids in
the counties of Dublin, Cavan, Donegal,
Kilkenny, Sligo and TIpperary. Over
300 houses were entered and searched
in these counties, it Is asserted, while
over 200 houses were similarly searched
in County Cork.
SO ADDITIONAL TROOPS
For the week before Easter the bul
letin shows S84 acts of aggression by
the police and military. On the other
hand, although statistics are not yet
available, the Sinn Feiners are declared
to have taken aggressive action at near
ly 20 different points on April 4 alone.
Bonar Law Is authority for the state
ment that there is no doubt but that
small arms are being smuggled into
Ireland, but that nothing is known of
any recent gun-running. The war of
fice has declared that the movement of
three regiments of cavalry to Ireland
was not for the purpose of reinforcing
detachments already there, but for re
placement due to depletion caused by
demobilization.

Stockholm, April 21. More than 4000
Swedish workmen registered last week
with the emigration authorities for
transportation to Russia. This move
ment has resulted from the recent
strike of the metal workers, when the
radical leaders declared that it would
be much better for skilled workers to
go to Russia, where they would receive
big wages for shorter hours.
The Swedish government Is willing
that the disgruntled workmen should
try the experiment and is now making
arrangements for committees represent
ing those who have registered to go to
Russia to Investigate conditions.
As soon as they return they will let
the workers know how many skilled
mechanics the soviet countries are able
to accommodate.

To Make Converts
Paris, April 21. Celine Amauld and
Trlstand Tzara, known as "Modern
Adam and Eve," leaders of the Dadist
creed of converting the world into a par
adise Of love, have arrived here, after
being expelled from Switzerland.
They propose, they say, to go to
America Bhortly to establish there a new
garden of Eden, which will be their
headquarters for organizing propaganda
to combat Billy Sunday, John D. Rock
efeller Jr. and others whose theories
of Christianity they declare to be abso
lutely wrong. The proposed pilgrimage
to convert America Is compared to Brig
