"evert While for years there has been
no doulbt whatever of our willigness to
hold out our hand toward an honorable
peace, we have heard up to these last
few. days inciting speeches delivered
by enemy statesmen,
"President Wilson wants war until
we ere,, destroyed, and what Mr. Bal

foreign affairs, has said must really
lid v the flush of auger to the cheeks
of .every German.
Says Germany Insulted
"Wo foell for the honor of our fath

to be iconstantly and openly insulted in
this manner, and behind these insults
is the ,dsire for our destruction. As
Hong as this desire lor our destruction
(exists, wo must endure, together with
lour faithful nation.
VI am also convinced I know it
that in the widest cinclcs of our na
tion the same serious feeling exists
everywhere.
"As long as tho desire for our de
struction exists we must hold out, and
(wo will hold out, with confidence in
bur trocps, in our army administration
and our magnificent nation, which

certain problems will appear whieh the

"Exhaustive discussion took place
regarding these questions July 1 and 2
at general headquarters, under the
'presidency of tho kaiser.
" Naturally, 1 ea)u only announce
Tiero quito generally tho lines which
were laid down at the time regarding
the east, west and on the basis of the
peace otf Brest-Litovsk and we wish to
see this peace carried out in a local
, 'manner. That is tho wish of the Ger-
man imperial administration and it is
supported m this by the chief of the
army administration.
Russian Conditions Mixed
"However, the difficulty of the
execution of tho peace of Brest-Litovsk
does not lie on our side, but in the
iacit that conditions in Russia are still
exceedingly uncertain. We are- inclin
ed to ibelievo dn the loyalty of the pre
ent Russian goivornment, and especial
ly in. the loyalty of tho representatives
of the Russian government in Berlin.
"But wo may not, and cannot, pre
sume unconditionally that the present
Russian government has the power to
carry (through everywhere the loyal
piwmisos mado to us. We do not at all
wish to create difficulties for the prcs
'ent Rujsian government, but as condi
tions now are, there are incessant de
velopments and endless frictions in $ho
frontier region. '
"However, our principle is that we
stand oai tho basis of peace made at
Brest-Litovsk and we will carry out
this peace loyally andi will deal loyally
with the present government.

"On tho other hana, it is true that
political currents of very varied ten

empire movements having the most
diverse aims, including the monarchist
movement of the constitutional demo
crats and the movements of the social
revolutionaries. We shall not commit
ourselves to any political counter cur-1
rent, but are giving careful attention
to tie course Russia is steering."
In connection with this point the im
perial chancellor passed to a review of
the political situation in the west. He
then spoke of the reasons which, led
to the resignation f Dr. von Kuehl-
mann and concluded:
New Minister's Promise

Hintze possesses a thoirough knowledge
of Kussian affairs, which is a matter
of great importance in tho present sit
uation. But it goes without saying that
I shall give my counter" signature to
the appointment of Admiral von Hintze
only on condition tht he follows my
line of policy and not his own,
"However, as far as I am concern
ed, I already have a sure guarantee for
this in Admiral vein Hintze' promise
I shall direct th5 line of foreign policy
and the secretary of state for foreign
affairs has merely t carry out miy
policy. The proposed secretary of slate
for foreign affairs is absolutely clear
on thus point,
"The course with which the great
majority of the reuchstag declared it
self to bo in agreement in November
of last year will still 'bo followed."
Comment on Americans
Washington, July 13. German news
papers no longer able to ignore the
presence of American trocps on tho
west front, aro carrying out a syste!
matio camouflage propaganda in an
effort to quiet the growing apprehen
sion felt in the central empires, accord
ing to neutral cables today.
. The recent announcement o,f Presi
dent Wilson that more than a million
Americans are in France has been scat
tercel (broadcast through Germany and
Austria by the neutral and enemy
press, the cables stated. Forced to com-
bat this, the German general staff has
admitted it partially and is seeking to
discount its Bignitwanee.
Lven if the reports were ven-
ified," writes the Nord Deutsche AH
j'gemoino Zeatung, "there is no occasion
itfor alarm, since it is only a question
Kt 'improvised' soldiery."
Other papers, however, are not hid
ing their anxiety. The Munchener
'Neuste Nivharcsten confessed "that
Ithe action of the United (States is far
1more rapid than anticipated and must
'impede tho success of German arms.'
The Berliner Taseblatt m an arti
'elo signed by Theodore Wolff states
that "American help lis augmenting
ithe morale c,f the allies."

Los Ang.oles, Cal., July 13. There 's
just one little grain of comfort here
in the suspension of the Pacific Coast
league after tomorrow's games Los
Angeles fans will get to Bee at least
five mora games, as Vernoa and the An
gels scrap it out for the pennant. This
order was decided upon by the directors
at a meeting last nighC
Patriotism played an important part
in the final session of the league mag
nates hero last night at which the of
ficial swan song was chanted. With
players from Salt Lake, Vernon ami
San Francisco clubs boinz summoned
before draft boards under the work or
fight order, it was deemed best to end
the season and release the players for
war work, than to fight for them by ap
peals to higher authorities.
"We did the only thing we could
consistently do," stated A. T. Baum,
president of the league today. "I know
the public is interested in the game, but
under present conditions I feel the fans
will commend our efforts and wait in
patience until the end of the war en
ables resumption of the sport. I am
sure it is due to come back stronger
than ever."
The meeting deciding upon suspension
after tomorrow's games was attended
by President Baum,, President Powers
or the Angels, who also represented
Knit T.nlrA. r-.il rnblnrl
President Strub and Manager Graham
mm
of the Seals. Baum also represented
Sacramento.
Their session was Mort and to the
point. The situation was familiar to oach
director so only means of meeting it
were discussed. Utrub favored an at
tempt to finish the season with four
clubs, dropping Salt Lake and Sacra
mento. It was held by the others that
this would bo impossible, bo a decision
to end the season tomorrow night was
quickly reached. "
After the suspension had been agreed
to it was decided that the league leader
ship at issue between the two south
cm clubs be decided by a series of nine
gnm.es beginning here Wednesday. The
