consequences of his prodigious activities made clear to a diplomat as narrow minded as Berchtold The fact that he was not able to foresee all the results of his foolish policy merely goes to show that In him a mentality less than the average was joined with brutal and unmeasured ambitions This is the present state of sentiment In Holland The Cabinet of Queen Wllhelmlna would begin br invoking tho right of hospitality Then It would watch to seo It America would or would not Join In the demand for him Finally it would declare that the offense asralnst moral ity spoKen ot in the treaty was not a crime laid down In the Netherlands code and lhat besides one gives up a criminal only to his own country rno scenario was well known to William and It afforded him no little tranquillity COMMIOXTFD

Its refusal William no longer knows Taking precautions for eventuality ho is writing his defense He is gettlns ready to declare that he win do anything rather than cause by his presence a erlous wrong to the country upon which he Imposed hlmaelf without an inf ltatlon What Is his defense From what I know of his conversation It hinges received satisfaction But It was then too late to stop her The second nolnt Is It was Enr land who started the European war inrerusing to intervene to bring St Petersburg and Paris to their senses EXCUSES MARGINAL MOTES As for the famous marginal notes he contends that they are of a strictly personal nature and that they express momentary Impressions which had no effect upon the action of the German Government To call Berchtold a blockhead the King Of Italy a miserable person Sir Ed ward Grey a filthy blackguard and Qlolittl a rascal without a rival were pot he says directions for diplomats but rather exclamations Intended to mark his passing Indig nation Ono day William Is full of hope the next day ha has the blues One day he declares Tljoy dare hot touch me that would be a monumental Iniquity the next day says They are capable of anything especially since the Germans themselves have deserted me At tho request of his mother the Cro5n Prince passed Christmas at AmerongTen Yesterday at 120 in the afternoon he arrived escorted by the Burgomaster of Wleringen and a high Dutch functionary According to what I know of the scene be tween father and son this short visit brought to William neither encouragement nor consolation All depends now on tho form which the allied demands take if on two essential points The first point lit is energetic it may not only fxr Is The documents published show Ituado Holland to give up William but that when I knew ot the Servian re lt may force William to lve himself ply to Austria I believed Austria had up or to flee Finally young Tutt called away out Well I see youve got the papers The

that the killing nearTamplco lato In November of James Wallace an American citixen resulted from hi failure to heed the warning ot a Mexican sentry are denied In an account of the Incident which reached Washington today from the Agutla Company of which Wallace was an employe The killing of Wallace caused the State Department to make an urgent Inquiry of the Mexican Government as to the circumstances The Mexican Foreign Offle lu Its reply charged that Wallace while Intoxicated passed a sentry stationed at what was characterised as a dangerous spot and falling to halt WM shot andMUedY

On the morning ofTloTember Mr james Wallace employed by us as foreman on ourarthenkreservoIra at Potrcro del Llano was rldlmtr from the office down to the tank farm a distance of about 254 meters On the road was an outpost of four Government soldiers with a machine gun I As far as we have been able to certain Wallaces horse reared while passing this outpost and kicked the machine gun whereupon one of the soldiers shot him killing him Instantly None of our men actually saw what happened Some of them had been talking to Wallace a minute or two before and hearing the shot they ran out of the office and found Wallace lying on the ground dead INTOXICATION DENIED The soldiers gave the explanation that Wallace Insisted on passing between the machine gun and a sentry that his horse refused to tin for which reason one of the soldiers beat it several times with the butt of his rifle and that Wallace then threw his horse over on the sentries nearly upsetting the machine gun They also claim Wallace hit the soldier wHh an ax handle ho was carrying and furthermore make the statement that Wallace was Intoxicated These statements are not substantiated by facts Apart from the circumstances that we have never known Wallace to bo Intoxicated during the ten months he was employed by us and that It Is in any case very unlikely a man would be under the Influence ot liouor when going to his work at 8 oclock In the morning we know positively lhat Wallace was absolutely sober as several of our men were talking with hlra a few minutes before he was killed ASSAVLT CIIARCE KAISE As regards Wallace having assaulted the soldier with an ux handle the lack of foundation tor this statement Is proved by the fact that the ax handle which he was carrying down to the tank farm was still found strapped to the saddle when the horse Wallace had been riding was brought back to the corral Furthermore It Is extremely unlikely to say the least that a man armed with only a stick should attackattack four soldiers with rifles and a machine gun Another circumstance which proves the soldier who killed Wallace did not act In self defense Is that the nature of the wound according td medical evidence shows beyond any possibility ot doubt that Wallace was shot from behind Telegraph Employes Given General Raise NEW TORK December 28 January 1 32000 employes ofthe Western Lnlon
