Th^ warning was considered neces sary in view of the government's reported contemplated decision on unconditional surrender, which Is being submitted to the full cabinet, and to the party leaders, representa tives of employers In the Rhine and Ruhr, and to the premiers of the relchstateB Monday. The cabinet, as Its extraordinary session Sunday night, did not come to any final decision In the matter, but unless the plan is rejected bp the cabinet Monday and then by the various groups to whom the prob lem Is presented, the capitulation of Germany will be announced to the world In the form of a procla mation Tuesday or Wednesday. Only Way Out The decision of the government to give in has taken reluctantly but was inevitable, in view of the re fusal of France to make any con cession to Germany regarding the release of arrested Germans or the return of deported citizens of the occupied areas. The French ambas sador here stated that he was not prepared to agree to anything short of unconditional surrender in the form of recantation of all the resistance decrees passed by the Cuno cabinet. It is understood that the procla mation will state that owing to th« intense misery of the population, Germany feels compelled to termi nate the resistance against the breach of international law repre sented b the Ruhr occupation and withdraws all decrees furthering that object. Will Demand Amnesty The proclamation will also state that Germany has a right to expect amnesty for all prisoners, the re turn of all expelled citizens, free dom of work for employers and em ployed, the resumption of German administration in the Ruhr, and un restricted communication. Germany is highly electric. In Bavaria and Saxony menacing clouds are gathering. Demonstra tions at Munich have denounced the idea of capitulation- In Leipzig the government troops are concentrat ing. There are street battles in Dresden between the police and workers. Despite repeated charges by the police, the rioters have raided shops am, help up the tram cars. Socialists Cause Trouble ' The cabinet was Just adjourning at 10 o’clock Sunday night after a five-hour session, when it resumed its sitting because of an unexpected new inner political complication. The socialists in Greater Berlin, including the reichstag and diet members, held a meeting at which Herr kelgner, Saxony’s radical pre mier, spoke by invitation regarding his conflict with Minister of De fense Gessler. The meeting unanimously apporved his standpoint and adopted a reso lution demanding a change in the ministry system and also adopted a resolution declaring that the cabi net policy was unsatisfactory and called on the socialist members to use more energetic means in effect ing socialist demands. Another resolution demanding that the socialists withdraw from the cab* inet was tabled for a week. Girls Missing From Children’s Home Believed to Have Started Western Trip Attired in Boys’ Clothing Des Moines, la., Sept. 23—Ann Sherman, 15 years old, and Genevieve Glenn, 17 years old, have disappeared from the Iowa Childrens' home, where they have been staying while attending school here.

EXPOSURE IN JOI PLOT PROVES TO CALIFC San Francisco, Sept. 23—There was no joy Sunday In the camp of Gov ernor Richardson. Insurance Com missioner George D. Squires, and the rest of the once merry crew of re ceivers of stolen letters. The storm of public indignation, which the exposure of their conniv ance with a thief In their efforts to injure Senator Hiram W. Johnson, brought a swift and startling change into their outlook. What had been an attitude of gleefulness and self-satisfaction at what they evidently considered a smart political trick became a sour realization that the trick had be come a boomerang. Sees Stolen Letter Adding to their discomfiture were two new developments. One witness declared that he was ready to swear to an affidavit that he had seen a copy of the stolen Mc Clatehy-Boynton letter in Governor Richarddson's possession two weeks before it was published in a local paper. That would tend to throw further confusion into the governor’s denials which already conflict great ly with the statements of his own political henchman, Insurance Com missioner George D. Squires. INSON BOOMERANG IRNIA GOVERNOk A. E. Boynton, chairman of the republican state central committee, and from whose office the McClatchy letter was stolen by George C. Hard wick, issued a statement denouncing the “contemptibly plot" of Johnson’s enemies and challenging the governor and Squires to print in full any further stolen letter they may have in their possession. Boynton de clares that if the stolen letters are garbled in publication hs’il print them in their entirety. Newspapermen Barred The governor concealed himself Sunday behind a squadron of private secretaries and inquiries by men re presenting newspapers in every sec tion of the country "fere met with the answer: "The governor refuses to see or talk to any newspaper correspond ents.’’ Squires was not to bs found any where. It was apparent that the governor and his “voice” were not to bs be trayed again into making statements that oontradicted each other. Their failure to consult each other before making their previous explanations had proved extremely embarrassing.

L Bone has an interesting relic which he plans to send to Doane Roblneon, state historian for Information con cerning it. The relic Is In the form of a silver medal about twice the size of a silver dollar. On one side ap pears the face of George Washington, with the words: “George Washington, Father of His Country," and the date, 1789. On the other side appears 12 stores on the outer edges of the medal and in the center the word "peace,” and a pair of clasped hands and two pipes of peace. The date, 1789, also appears on that side of the medal- The article was given to Mr Bone by an Indian near Veblen, who expressed the opinion that the medal was struck off in honor of some treaty of peace between the Infant republic of the United States and some tribe of Indians away back in 1879, when Washington had been recently Inaugurated president. How ever, the medal bears but little indi cation of age, and Mr. Bone would like to have Mr. Robinson's opinion as to Its authenticity, and just what treaty it may have been lntened to commemorate.
