I had been in Berlin two w«'<-k.-. I wanted to see other portions <d

went to the German Preea Bureau."<iould I visit some priaon camp-'" I inquire*!. "If you let inn and I

There is a vast difference between the civil and military authorities. Thecivil are much more liberal. They are eager to send news to America. I

was told of a nine-day tour which .included a visit to two prison camps,and was invited to join the expedition.

Thfisc trips are magnificent foata in German propaganda. An intel¬ligent director conducts a group of reporters through the country. Ail

expenses are paid and the journalist», feted and feasted.It is hard to view Germany impartially when one is fed on cham¬

pagne. I delayed my departure for a day. It was the moment of theLiebknecht trial, and I wished to be present in case of an uprising. Also

by this postponement I avoided the special car assigned to journalists andcould pay my own railroad faro to Karlsruhe.

The Royal Princess was upstairs!She and others of the nubility «rare on their way to a fuñera!. A

Russian officer who had lnterniarrn-il with the German nobility had been

.killed at the front, and the relativ.-- wore attending his funeral.Having had tea and readjusted their veils, the royal partv descended.

The ladies were in deepest mourning, their veils so thick that tot a spe«-kef fare was visible. A sacred circle surrounded them, into which no one

All observers agree that the WarCouncil will be composed of PremierLloyd G-.-orgc, Andrew Bonar I.»w,Chancellor of the F.xchequer; Lord Mil-t.er, minister without portfolio; LordI'ut.on, president of th«» Council, »ndArthur Henderson, Secretary for Lahor.Th» striking feature of this arrange¬ment is the ab-rence of representativesof the army, nary and the Departmentof Foreign Affairs, which the Earl ofDerby. Sir Edward 'arson and ArthurJ. Balfour »re, respectively, expectedto head.The War Council will be '.he re»'
