The War department wants to sell a town, and it also wants to sell 9,800 pairs of handcuffs. There is no associa tion between the two because the town is a "model town."

S. COVENANT President Requested to Give Out All Information He Has Regarding Negotiations With Austria, Bulgaria, Turkey. Washington, Aug. 23. After vot ing to amend the peace treaty by striking out Japan's title to the Ger man rights in Shantung, the senate foreign relations committee notified President Wilson today that it could not intelligently proceed with its work on amendments until he fur nished additional information. The action on the Shantung pro vision was taken in short order, Chairman Lodge proposing the amendment and the committee adopting it virtually without debate. The vote was 9 to 8, with all the democratic members and Senator McCumber, republican. North Da kota, voting in the negative. Then the point of inadequate in formation was raised by republican members. Chairman Lodge declar ing there were in the president's hands important documents which were absolutely essential to the de termination of questions involved in the committee's wo: During its entire consideration i the treaty, the chairman said, the committee had been hampered by lack of infor mation that should have been given it weeks ago. Democrats Opposed. Democratic members are under stood to have expressed general op position to any interruption of the committee's plan for prompt action, but finally on motion of Senator Williams, democrat, Mississippi, and without a record vote, the chairman was instructed to ask the president for the treaty with Poland signed on June 28, two agreements regard ing the Rhine section to which the United States was a party and such information as may be available about the treaties now under negoti ation with Austria, Hungary, Bul garia and Turkey. In amending the Shantung provis ion the committee took the most.di rect method. Chairman Lodge simply moved to strike out the word "Japan" wherever ft occurred in the section relating to the German Shantung rights and to insert in stead the word "China." The effect would be to restore to China all the German holdings in Kiao-Chow and vicinity. Transfer Fight to Senate. With the committee's action the fight over the Shantung settlement is transferred to the senate floor. Re publican leaders say they have the votes to uphold the committee amendment but administration sen ators appear equally certain that it will he beaten. Members said there w?.s no dis cussion of the proposal when it came before the committee, those on both sides having made up their minds and the subject having been debated at length in the senate. Senator Brandagee, republican, Coirnectictftt, asserted all of the American peace delegates had gone on record as be lieving the award of the Shantung rights to Japan was wrong, and asked that the committee vote for what it believed was right. Sen ators Hitchcock, Nebraska; Pitt man, Nevada, and Shields, Tennes see, democrats, were absent but their votes were recorded in the negative. All Bear on Treaty. All of the documents asked of the (Continued on Page Two. Column Two.) Ability to Tie Up U. S. to Determine Strike of Railroad Unions Washington, Aug. 23. Success of the strike on which the railway shopmen of the country are now voting "will depend entirely upon how far we can stop the transpor tation service of the country," said a circular presented in the senate Saturday by Senator Thomas, dem ocrat. Colorado. The senator said the statement had been sent out by the railway employes' department of the American Federation of Labor. The circular said if it came to a strike "we want to make the tieup complete and keep it in that condi tion until we get proper recognition.' Senator Thomas said this situa tion was "a perfectly legitimate de velopment of the action of congress in 1914 in exempting organizations of laboring men from the operation of the anti-trust law." Demands of railroad employes now are being considered by Direc tor General Hines of the railroad administration. LATIN-AMERICAN CONTROL PLAN OF GERMAN NATION Warning Issued by Former Member of U. S. Military Intelligence Department. New York, Aug. 23. Revelation of extensive German plots in Mex ico during the war, which included a proposed invasion of the United States by a German-Mexican army of 45,000 men at the same time that the Germans launched their last drive on the western front in July, 1918, was made here tonight by the National Association for the Pro tection of American Rights in Mex ico, which gave out a statement by Dr. P. B. Altendorf, formerly of the United States Military Intelligence department, reciting his experience as an American secret service agent in that country. Dr. Allendprf, the" son of a Polish banker in Cracow, Austrian Poland, abandoned a medical course in the University of Vienna at the outbreak of the war and fled to Mexico, where he was offered a position as a Ger man spy to operate against the United States by Kurt Jahnke, head of the German secret service in Mexico. "With pretended reluctance, but with secret joy, I accepted," he said, "and at once found myself in a posi tion to render valuable service to the allies in general." He opened communication with the border as a volunteer worker to the military intelligence department, he claims, and later was sworn in as a special agent of the military in telligence department. Dr. Allendorf warns the people of the United States against a proposed German commercial conquest of Mexico. Plan Control of Country. "Within six months after the United States ratifies the treaty," he says, "Germany will have complete economic control of Mexico. With in a very few years, if they are per mitted to carry out the plans they have formulated and are now exe cuting as fast as they can, the Ger mans will have absolute economic, political and - military control of Latin-America with headquarters in Mexico. Referring to the proposed invasion of the United States, Dr. Allendorf sets forth that in his dual capacity as a captain in the German army and a colonel in the Mexican army he helped to train 900 Gcman re servists in Sonora, who were to form the nucleus of the proposed German Mexican army and that in his true character as an American secret service agent, he prevented the raid from being carried out. "This ambitious scheme," he said, "was financed by Von Eckhardt (German ambassador to Mexico) and was undertaken with the co operation of Carranza. Enumerates Services. Dr. Allendorf, enumerating his services in Mexico, says in fart: "I delivered into the hands cf the United States military authorities the German agent, Luther Witcke, alias Pablo Wabirski, the most im portant individual capture of the war, so far as America was con cerned. Wabirski boasted to me that he had blown up several munition plants and stores of explosives, in cluding the Black Tom explosion in New York; blew up some ships and caused disastrous fires in the forests of the Pacific northwest. "Wabirski was on his way to the United States by way of Nogales, Ariz.,-on another mission of murder and destruction when captured by me. On his person was found a copy of the German imperial code. Wabirski was court-martialed and from the fact that has case is be fore the president for review is be lieved to have been sentenced to death. "I also betrayed 58 other German agents and thus enabled the military intelligence department to keep ef fective watch on them, not to men- ( Continued onFage Two, Column Five) Report Says Missing ' Aviators' Airplane Was Seen Wednesday San Diego, Aug. 23.

TENANTS TO FIGHT LANDLORD Indignation Meeting Held on Roof of Apartment Decides to Employ Attorney to Op pose Rent Increases. APARTMENT RENTERS INTERESTED IN PLAN But He'd Forgot to Figure on The Senate Victims of High Rates at Angelus Will Not Give Evidence at Probe Being Conducted by City Council. Incensed over a threatened profit eering demand by their landlord tenants of the Angelus apartments, Twenty-fifth avenue and Farnum street, last night held an indigna tion meeting on the roof of the flat building and formulated definite plans to resist extortionate rates of rent. The meeting was called by Beech er Higby, P. G. Schneider and H. E. Morrison and attended by occupants of nearly all of the 52 apartments in the house. The sentiment of the gathering was unanimous to refuse to pay an increase in rent from $13 to $20 a month. The plan also includes a proposition to refuse to accede to the demand of the agent for the property in the event he orders the tenants to vacate. This action will not be taken, however, it was declared until an attorney had been consulted. Others Are Interested. The stand being taken by the ten ants at the Angelus will .be watched with much interest by thousands of apartment renters in Omaha, who are making plans to form a general organization to defeat the rent prof iteers. With the proper organiza tion these people are confident they can win in their fight. Many apart ment agents already have given no tice that their rents will be increased even more than that announced at the Angelus. "If the matter ever gets into the courts and these profiteering agents are forced to show their books, I pity them," declared a prominent attorney last night, who at one time was counsel for a big real estate firm. "They will not have a leg left to stand oh. Just tell these people for me if they want to win hands down go to the courts. The real estate agents cannot only not justify their outrageous charges, but they will not have the nerve to try it there's a reason. It is bad enough to be called a profiteer by your neighbor, but it is a blamed sight worse to be proven one and that is exactly what will happen." Oppose City Help. A suggestion was offered at the meeting to turn the matter over to the city attorney. It met almost with unanimous opposition. Atten tion was called to Mayor Smith's failure in his investigation of the high cost of foodstuffs. Others ex pressed their doubt because of the mayor's weak effort so far in his probe of high rent. An attorney will be employed Monday, it was declared, to look up the matter and ascertain just what can be done to thwart the imposi tion threatened by the landlord and The property is owned by Mrs. Anna Donahue. She declared she just had returned after an absence of six weeks and knew nothing about the complants of her tenants. T. A. Donahue is the agent for the prop- (Contlnud on Page Two, Column Three.) Arrest British Soldiers Who Fail to Obey Orders London, Aug. 23. Three hundred soldiers belonging to Warwick, Berkshire and Gloucester regiments were arrested Saturday at South ampton for refusing to obey orders to embark for France.

The men are quartered in a public park. Perfect order prevailed. A war office statement says that the men were being slnt to Turkey, not to Russia. 26 Beer Smugglers in Windy City Released on Bond Chicago, Aug. 23. (Special.)

"I am going after the men, tew," Sutton is quoted as saying. "I am going to break up this recall. I have got my orders and I am going to carry them out to the letter." "Why don't you go after some of the business men who are interested in this matter?" one woman asked the head of the "special morals squad." "Would Line 'Em Up." "Never mind, you people get busy and line up with the right side and everything will be all right,' Sut ton is declared to have responded.
