LONDON', Oc t. 1. A iM-ncc dcmon fctmtion took place in Merlin on Sat urday, according to news received hero today. Tlic clieurint; crowds as sembled in front of the liulfrnriHi) le frntiun at the Gcrinnn capital ncces b it at i up police intervention. The rioters, according to the infor tmition, got the upper liand of the au thorities and commillcd excesses. A number of nlntucs in lie Uerlin fcpiares were destroyed. Kxrltoincnt )vert'lnluin LONDON, Oct. J. There is the greatest excitement in Germany over the defection of lieljjiiim, jiidmnn from special dispatches received here from Holland. On Saturday the ex citement amounted to a panic. The nlarin brought forth the instant de mand that "something he done." A dispatch to the Dailv Main from The llaue says the demand is for Somebody possessing lie confidence of the Germans and their allies to re place the present military oligarchy. All reports indicate a decided clenvnge between the Junker and Conservative classes and the class represented by the socialist ami radi cals, who have the support of some centrists and even national liberals. Talk of I H( In tor Emperor William's belated anxiety for the people to cooperate in the gov ernment evidently will be distasteful to the Junkers, one of whose foremost newspapers, the Krcuse Zeiluug, de clares thnt a dictatorship is the only possible alternative. On the other hand, (lie demand of the popular par ties is for a popularly elective cabinet. The effect of the resignation of Chancellor Von Ilcrtling and Koreigu Secretary Von I lint xu on the public agitation is not yet reported and nothing is known as to how the terms of the Hutgarian surrender have affected the German people, if they Ijnvo been permitted to know the terms. Kaiser Shows Anxiety LONDON, Oct. 1. Kinpcror Wil liam in n message to the Kattierlaud party is quoted in an Amsterdam dispatch to the Kxchange Telegraph as saying: 'I have the confident hope that the 'hoIe German people in these most serious limes will resolutely gather v around nic and give their blood and wealth until the laM breath for the defense of the fatherland against the shameful enemy plans.' "Such an unanimous resolve to ex ist will and must, will) God's help, succeed in breaking the euemv's will to war and secure for the Katherland the peace it is worthy of among the jieople of the world." Von Ituelow "Stnmtt Sinn Prince von Huelow, former Ger man Imperial chancellor, may bo the v.ikiio nerHonullly mentioned In the advices from The Hanun aa the statesman who is expected to appear as tho German "strong man" In the present crisis. It hua 1)cen nn open nocret thai Germany was holding Prince von lluolow for possible use la tho criti cal period that the making of pence would hrlnt?, nnd the very snugest Ion that comes now for a man of htj type may perhaps bo pointed to n Indi cating that Germany herself Is com ing to realize that the beginning of the end Is at hand. Prince von lluolow has purposely been kept out of the llmeltpht In the war and hss taken no part la the po litical struggles thnt lum arisen In the German empire. It ha. hen un derstood Dial the Idea ;in that he thus should 1)0 untrammelled by in ternal difficulties. Despite the fact that the MedTord district Is $12K,nz -behind its quota of $298,112, by a qukk jump of over $:tO,OOU upwards this forenoon, the district will probably huve the glory and credit of putting the state of Oregon, outside of Portland, over the top. The state liberty loan headquar ters called up County Chairman C. E. Gates this forenoon and Informed him that W the Mod ford district could raise $30,0-00 within the next hour It would put Oregon, outside of the state metropolis, over the top. Headquarters stated that they had been trying without success everywhere In the stuto to raise this sum. Could and would Med ford please come thru? The mayor then asked if this district would be given tho credit for putting the state over In case tho money wus raised and was assured that It wouhl. Ho there upon stated that he would do li Is best. Hank to Hie Iloscue That best prom f. so was made good, for in a half hour's time Mayor Gates reported back to state headquarters that the necessary $;i0,000 subscrip tion was rulsed. Tho subscriptions which not only put the state, outside the city of Portland, over, but made a substantial and very wel come jump toward the district quota were those of tho Med ford National bank which subscribed for J2.i,00u, and Mrs. Abide J. Champlin of Foote's creek who subscribed $'000. With these subscriptions and the $8,000 subscribed Monday tho Mod ford district total to this noon amounted to $170,000. Outsldo of the two big subscrip tions of today which were the largest and second largest so far received during the local cumpalgn, subscrip tions have been coming In woefully slow and small. Shy of Solicitors Not only that but tho committee Is shy of solicitors and makes an earnest appeal for patriotic and pub lic spirited men to volunteer their services at once for this work. Last week there were forty solicitors, this wcuk..au, far only four or five men have shown up for duty. The com mittee Is grateful to thoso who havo helped out la the cam pat mi so far, but appeals, that they continue to help out. Ten men were to have reported for soliciting duty this morning but only four showed up, tho others being provented by business duties and other causes. The call Is urgent for all men who can possibly spare the time to take up this work. There aro IndUatlons that tho com mittee Is growing tired of pussy footing and gentlo methods, and will adopt drastic publicity measures to drive forward those persons who are well known to bo financially able to subscribe large amounts, but who have either not subscribed nt all or havo made pitiable subscriptions In comparison to their means. A. Hanna, local agent of the Associated Oil company, today In formed County Chairman (lutes that ho had received word from headquar ters of tho company at San Kranclsco that the company was going to make a $:t000 subscription to bo divided up among tho districts of Jackson county. The Medford district will receive a substantial share of this subscription. Tho following subscribed yester Uuy: 91 ooo .1. A. WVhI.'Huim! J. J. Kinim-lis J. T. (.Jasmin $500 .1, T. l-niran Ahl.y K.
