In a statement to the press today, the German govern ment takes Issue with the charges of Premier Briand of France in his ad dress before the Washington confer ence that the German police forces and the reichwehr constituted a nu cleus for a future German army. It declares M. Briand's assertion that the reichwehr is composed exclusive ly of officers and non-commissioned officers of the old army is Incorrect, and says the bulk of the Teichswehr is made up of youths between the ages of nineteen to twenty-one re cruited since the war. The statement says that the "pro tection police" were created at the bidding of the entente and adds: "The reichwshr is wholly unaffil iated with the schutzpolizel, which took the place of the security police when the entente ordered the latter's dissolution. The schutzpolize is primarily an agency to maintain law and order. It takes orders solely from the civilian ministries of the federated states. Its numerical strength and its composi tion with reference to the ratio of officers and men are designated and supervised by the entente control commission. The number of rifles and small arms it is permitted to have is specified. It does not possess heavy calibred arms. The einwohnerwehr. or civilian guards, referred to by M. Briand, has been dissolved and their arms have been surrendered and de stroyed." The statement disputes Mr. Bri and's assertion that Germany still possessed numerous arsenals equip ped to turn out war materials, and asserts these plants are limited to two or three 'required to keep the Germany army supplied and that their output is supervised by the en tente control commission. The government's statement refers the French premier to the address from the throne in which King George of England declared satisfac tory progress had been made by Ger many in execution of her financial and disarmament obligations. Newspaper comment generally characterizes M. -Briand's speech as "flat falsehood," but most of the journals express fear that America may believe what he said. The opin ion generally expressed was that his attitude was likely to undermine and nullify the whole effect toward disarmament. DAY WILL BE OBSERVED The observance of.

FREMONT SUFFERS A HEAVY FIRE LOSS MOTHER HOT KILLED ill BURLIIIGT0I1 TRAIN WRECK From 'Wednesday' Daliy. At the time of the tragic death of the late Paul Stadelman there was more' or less argument made by the old residents of this community as to the cause of the death of Mrs. Bloedel, mother of the unfortunate young man. and which was indirect ly connected -with the life long afflic tion of the deceased. Many of the older residents had stated that the mother and Paul were coming west to Plattsmouth from their home at East Orange, New Jersey, when they were caught in a train wreck and the mother killed and Paul so ser iously injured that he failed to ever recover from the effects. From the files of the. Nebraska Herald of October 22. 1891, we find the account of the wreck of Burling ton 'train No. 5 at Monmouth, Illi nois, and in this is made the state ment that the body of Mrs. Bloedel, who had died in . New Jersey, was being brought to this city for burial on this train and that as the result of the wreck the funeral was delay ed until the 29th of October, when the body finally arrives here and the services were held at the St. Luke's church. ' A nurse who was in charge of little Paul, then but a few weeks old, threw the babe out of the window of the train, fearing that he might be killed and from the effects of his fall he received the injuries that re sulted in his remaining in a paralyz ed condition for life. Wroe Variety Store Destroyed and Three Others Damaged by Blaze Raging all Day. V Fremont, Nov. 22. Fremont suf fered one of its worst fires in years today when flames raged from early morning until late this afternoon in the Wroe Variety store buildfng on Main street. The loss is conserva tively estimated at $100,000. The entire stock of the Wroe Co., consisting of dry goods, shoes, no tions, groceries and other merchan dise, invoiced at about $50,000, is considered a total loss. The building itself, purchased by John Sonin, lo cal merchant, some time ago for $50, 000, practically is a total loss. Three Stores Damaged The offices of Drs. M. H. Hunter and C. F. Weiland were destroyed at a loss of at-least $5,000. The walls of the Gumpert Department store building, adjoining were consider ably damaged and smoke caused much damage to the stock. The Ol son & Co. shore store suffered dam age by water and smoke as did the Dudley music store. All the possessions of Mrs. Emma Taylor, widow, and her four child ren, were destroyed In their small apartment on the second floor of the burning building. The mother and the children were carried from the building in their night clothes, short ly aTter the fire was discovered by Orville Stiles. newspaper vendor, when he took a morning paper to the front door. Firemen are Hurt Two volunteer fire fighters, By ron Paine and John Mathews, are in the hospital recovering from injuries received when the ladder which they ascended to the third story, buckled beneath their weight and sent them crashing to the icy pavement. Six other firemen were carried from the smoke-filled building in an uncon scious condition. They were Walter Broderson, Wal ter Adams, William Brunning, Bert Edwards, Max Trochtenberg and Mc Allister. Equipped with smoke masks, the men were lowered by ropes into the basement of the building, where they guided the nozzle of a hose at the base of the flames. None were able to stand the strain more than 10 minutes when they were replaced by other comrades. The fire is believed to have been the worst suffered in many years, even surpassing in loss, the destruc tion of the Fremont State Bank building last winter. teirago! OPEN DAY AND NIGHT ,.
