."Nothing has been shown even to

ffthat Berchtold was convinced of the

Joseph's assent to the note to Serbia

Kaiser's Notes
Here -are a few of the kaiser's
marginal notes, on the documents
that compose Germany's "black
book:" -
. "Now or never 1", (A thorough
reckoning "With Serbia.)
' v
"Very stupid 1 None of his
business. Tschirschky will please
stoo his nonsense.' ((Tschirsch
ky had warned Vienna against
"hasty steps.")
"There, now a man for all
thatl" (Upon hearing that Count
Tisza has abandoned his anti
war attitude.)
e N
"Bravol" (Hearing about de
livery of Austrian ultimatum to
Serbia, which caused the war.)
v
"The proud Slavs I Just step
firmly-on the rabble's feetl" (Re
ferring to Serbia and all other
Slav states.) . ,
"Ezll" (Ass, meaning Count
Berchtold, because the latter had
said Austria wanted no Serbian
territory.)
-.' .. ,.i
"My fleet has marching orders
to Keil -and that's where it's go
ing." ' (Ordered German fleet
home upon hearing of Serbian
mobilization.)
''I am not in the habit of mak
ing my military dispositions on
the strength of Wolff telegrams,
but in accordance with the gen-,
eral situation and this civilian
chancellor (Hpllweg) has ' not
yet grasped it!'
ficulty in formulating an unaccept
able ultimatum.
On July 18, the German foreign
minister, von Jagow, telegraphed tb
Count von Wodel, whewas aboard
the imperial yacht, outpointing that
theworld would be alarmed by a
premature return of the kaiser, but
that the kaiser ought to be acces
sible. Jagow suggested that the
cruise in the Baltic should last only
a few days.
Explanation of Comment
Jagow then telegraphed 'to Vienna
an explanation of the comment
which, was to be printed by the Nord
Deutsche Allgemine Zeitung (the
official government organ) on the
following day. The foreign minlt
ter explained to the German ambas
sador at Vienna that this comment
was . "purposely toned mild" and
asked Tschirschky to see that this
be not mistakenly construed as a
retirement on Germany's part ,
Meanwhile the Bavarian legation
in Berlin reported to Munich (seat
of the Bavarian government) that
Germany, after the presentation- of
the Austrian ultimatum, to Serbia,
would conduct a diplomatic cam
paign in which it would point to
theabsence of the kaiser and other
high personages and profess sur
prise at Austria's action.
On Tulv 19 the kaiser ordered his
battle fleet not to disperse before
July 25, so that any eventual decis
ion to break off the cruise might be
promptly carried out.
In Vienna, meanwhile. Count von
Berchtold convoked a second joint
council, constituted as that of July
7, in order to obtain approval of the
final draft of the note to Serbia.
Berchtold explained that in view of

WILLIAM H OHENZOLLERN.
This is the man whose insane conceit caused the death of ten
millions of people in the most awful war "ever recorded in the annals of
wuria History,
President Poincare's visit to Petro
grad it had been decided not to pre
sent the note until 5 o'clock on the
afternoon of July 23, so that the
time limit would expire at 5 o'clock
p. m. July 25 and so that the mob
ilization order might be issued the
night of that latter date.
Intentions Are Known.
On diplomatic grounds Berchtold
opposed further postponement,
"since the people in Berlin are al
ready becoming restive and since
reports of the intentions of tha
(dual) monarchy- have already
leaked through to Rome.
In a resolution which the council
adopted, Berchtold was given leave
to proceed with his program.
"Immediately upon outbreak of
jvar, tnis resolution sam m pari,
"the foreign powers will be informed
that the monarchy is not conducting
a war of conquest and does not con
template absorbing Serbia. This
decision shall not exclude a diminu
tion of Serbia for the benefit of
other states, as well as the eventual
necessary temporary occupancy of
Serbian territories." - N '
On July 21, Count von Berchtold,
Austrian foreign minister and pre-
f ..j:.... k.
mier, was receiyea in j
Emperor irancis josepn at iscm
and the text of the Austrian ulti
matum was confidentially lor
warded to Berlin by Ambassador
Tschirschky. Berchtold's assur
ances tnat Austria am not acsire
Serbian territory for itself, or any
modification of - the balance of
power in the Balkans were com
mented upon by the kaiser in this
marginal note, 'Esll' (ass). Aus
tria must retake the Sanjak or else
Serbia will come down to the Ad
riatic. Austria must become pre
ponderant in the Balkans over the
smaller states at their expense,
"there'll be no peace."
The second installment of deputy
Kautsky's documents, from the Ger
man archives will be published Mon
day afternoon.
Luxury Tax on Corsets
Fought by Fat Women
Chicago, Nov. 29. Unconstitu
tional discrimination against the
rights of women possessing an ex
cess of adipose, tissue through the
operation of the luxury tax on cor
sets costing $15 or more is charged
in a petition to Representative
James R. Mann, asking repeal of the
law. -
Byron W. Wright, an attorney,
who prepared the petition, contends
the taxed "corsets are a "necessity"
and not a "luxury."

Prussians In Foreign
Climes Disavow Fatherland
, Geneva, Nov. 29. British people
will be surprised to learn that since
the armistice there are no more Ger
mans and , especially Prussians,
abroad, notwithstanding the fact
that in neutral countries one meets
them every day, . '
I am not Prussian, but Bavarian,
with English parents, and " was
forced to fight in the war.
My family are German-Americans
and we are going to return home to
Chicago as soon as possible.
My parents are Alsatian, and we
shall settle in Mulhouse as soon as
the treaty has been ratified.
All may relations live in London
and New York. We are not Ger
mans, as w were naturalized long
ago. , -
Such are the descriptions I col
lected among' real Prussian and Ba
varian officers and men staying in
Switzerland who fought against the
allies by land, sea and air tor four
years. They are no longer Germans,
but half English or American, and
under this disguise want to enter
these countries to continue their
noxious propaganda and, wait for .
another ' day," - -1
; Max Nuemmer was a Belgian
peasant World doings did not in
terest himrHe had never heard of a
country over the seas called Amer
ica and ..with his devoted wife,
Minne, and a couple of small child-
red to cheer him in the evening, he
was content to labor week in and
week out for a pittance which would
seem beggarly to us. Thehildren
were too small to require shoes, in
fact Minne still has the pair she
wore when she became a happy
wife. -
Rumors came to the village that
trouble was astir, and a few days
later Max and thousands of his
Lclass were marshalled in line and
armed with primitive weapons to
reoel the Huns, who were sweeo-
ing across their country, destroying
as they advanced.
Max had little knowledge of
geography. He only knew that after
being wounded and beaten he was
pushed into Germany and treated
as a slave until his body refused to
respond to kicks and blows. Later
he was sent across the line into
Switzerland, there to be interned
for the duration of the war.
Made by Interns.
It was in the village of Gunten.
' Lake of Thun, where Max first saw
the American Ked cross, and tor
the first time in weeks experienced
the surprised feeling of exciting
human interest
His recovery was slow, but with
returning strength ame the. desire
to do something with his maimed
and weakened hands. As he had
learned basket weaving . in child
hood, the trembling fingers began
to shape little playthings for chil
dren, doll cradle tiny baskets, and
playthings to bring the shy thanks
from children who gathered on the
outskirts of the camp.
' The Red Cross stepped in and
said to the commandant, ," We will
take these tops and all other things
that the interned prisoners make
and find a market for them in
America. We will sell them and
the proceeds will go to the starv
ing women and children of the de
vastated countries, and to the pris
oners themselves, to buy food and
medicine for the wounded and sick
interns.
Start Sale Monday.
Tomorrow the work of the crip
pled fingers of Max Nuemmer and
scores of other wounded interns
will be placed before the people of
Omaha. On the main floor of the
Brandeis stores, Omaha Red .Cross
workerr will conduct a booth where
those over here may make the final
connection with those who suffered
and labored in the far off Switzer
land, that their wives and babies
might ever remember the American
Ked Cross. .
The Red Cross booth will ihow
many different lines of work, A
number of pure woolen rugs were
woven by Canadian prisoners and
practically every rug" bears the
name and outfit of the man who
slowly and patiently patterned it
with his hands.' Chairs, all made
by hand, are patterned after the
Swiss style, hind carved, showing
weeks ' and weeks of work from a
single pair of hands, armed with
simple tools. Tables, foot - rests,
benches, all crudely but strongly
made, are specimens of real hand
work. Many of the wood articles
have the soldier maker's name
carved on the backs.
Foot warmers, such as never have
been seen in America are in the ex
hibit, so big, roomy and warm that
eternal ice would not penetrate
them.
Many Beautiful Toys.'
In -the toy department the sol
dier prisoners ran riot, as every
conceivable kind of Iroop train, en
gine, car, truck and wagon is here
for the benefit of Omaha young
sters. It Is noticeable that the pat
terns are made from foreign and
out of date equipment. Toy dogs,
cats,' horses and little boys - and
girls, all carved out of wood, bear
the name of the man, who perhaps,
spent days making his crippled
hands do the work that is done in
America by machinery, t
v Every little girl in Omaha will go
into a spasm of delight when she
sees the dainty doll crib beds fash
ioned by French soldiers. They
are as light as down, and yet strong
and secure and artistic.
The booth is in charge of the
Omaha Red Cross and the prices
are just what the Red Cross re
ceives, the Brandeis stores having
guaranteed their sale over a year
ago, and insisting that all the Red
Cross articles should be sold with
out profit to the storev"
Every youngster in Omaha should
be allowed the .privilege of seeing
this display of the handiwork of
wounded and interned soldiers.-
