Cabinet Considers
Message from New
Republic of China
WASHINGTON, April ll.-The formal
address of the new Chinese republic to
the world was received here today by
cable and taken up by President Wilson
and the cabinet. Its text may be made
public later. The cabinet discussed the
question of recognition. No action was
taxen, but word went out that as soon
as organization of the. assembly Is fin
ished, which probably will be tomorrov,
formal recognition of Yuan Shi Kola
government will be made by the United
States.
Members of the cabinet talked of the
address as a diplomatic utteranoe that
Dreamed the spirit of liberty of an awal:.
ened people.
The fact that Brazil, Peru and Mexico
already have recognized China did not
create any Impression of regret that the
Unltted States has not actually been the
flrot to recognize the new republic. Mem
bers of the cabinet pointed' out that the
United States In appealing to the na
tions of tho world for Joint action had In
effect been the first to demonstrate tu
attitude. It will be a matter of only
a few days, too, they said, when the new
republic would be taken Into th fnmliv
of nations at Washington, Reports of
attempted sjreasinations and political
unrest are not disturbing the administra
tion, they declared".
The cabinet took under consideration
also today the questions created by tho
pending alien land law leelalntlnn In i-.a.

uumorma woum not enact any law to

Alleged Marrying
Thief is Identified
as E. 0.0. Von Klein
CHICAGO, April 11. While the local po.
lice had previously satisfied themselves
that "Jack Lewis," alias "Weaver B.
Clark," alleged "marrying swindler," was
really B. C. C. Von Klein, a diamond
broker of Minneapolis, the Identification
was confirmed by W. A. Pembertbn, head
houseman of the Elks club rooms here.
Hereafter the prisoner will be known to
the police as Von Klein.
At the county jail, when Jailer Davles
ordered Von Klein brought to the office,
the latter sent" back word that he was
111.
"Bring him down on a stretcher then,"
commanded Davles, and the order was
promptly obeyed. The prisoner had tied
a handkerohlef around his face and
struggled to keep It there, but It was torn
away.
"8ure, that's Von Klein." said Pember
ton. "I've known him for five years; I
couldn't be mistaken. He Is a member
of the Klks' lodge No, U at Minneapolis
and I've taken care of his things at the
lodge there many times. I'd know him
It I saw only the back of his head."
The difficulty of Identifying the pris
oner awoke great Interest In his case. He
refused to Identify himself. His family
at Minneapolis insisted thst some horri
ble error had been made. His father,
Dr. Carl Von Klein, of this city, world
renowned as an Investigator of and
writer on ancient medical lore, who has
spent a fortune In that pursuit, declared
that the prisoner was not his son, but
declined to confirm his denial by visiting
the jail.
