He was replying to a question put to him by the subcommittee Investigating the rinses of the war. Von Bernstorff also expressed the opinion that President Wilson would htve raised no difficulties had the pro- posed world conference to settle peace folved the Polish question In a man- ner different to President Wilson's ideas. He added thaf Itj connection iruh President Wilson's peace efforts. In his discussions with tho United SUtes Government, there was no nuettlon of territory concerned In. giv ing\ Poland access to the sea or being nithdrawn from Uerman sovereignty, Bernstorff said President Wilson's peace offer was a matter of Iltt'e con- cern to the German Emperor. Further-th-e Intervention of the United States apparently was not seriously con, .idrfd bv the Emperor. The evidence caused a sensation. The came out during \the examination of Count von Bernstorff, the former Oer-r.- n Ambassador at Washington. The Socialist Deputy, Dr. Slnshelmer, turned tnwird Von Bernstorff and said : ' \The\ Kaiser's telegram, to which you refer, dated January 16, 1917. and H to Herr Zlmmermann, Foreign Secretary, says literally: 'His Majesty Instructs me to thank you for your com- munication. His Majesty does not care .. hit about President Wilson's offer. II a breach with America cannot be pre- vented, it cannot be helped. Events are developing.\ \ There was much excitement at the hearing when the message was read, pr. Karl von Helfferlch, the former rwhlspered \Nonsense.\ Peace Terms falstorted. Dr. Slnshelmer maintained that the ntaot conditions scut to President Wilson on January IS. 1917. which were said to be the samo aa those Germany offered on December 18, 11. were really noth- ing like them. Every one present appeared astounded at this statement, and 'Count von Bern- storff exclaimed excitedly: 'Then I am told this y for the first time.\ Under Von Bern- storff quoted the German Emperor and Oen. Ludendorff on his (Bernstorffs) return from Washington. The Emperor tald Von Bernstorff had failed on two points, first. In allowing tho British to confiscate the trunk with a Swedish dip- lomat's papers thought to contain his Mexican telegrams, and, second, by per- mitting the United SUtes to send James W. Gerard to Germany as Ambassador. Ludendorff accused .him of attempt-- \ ku'.-lt.l- l. aB4lnl ing to mane peace u nabawii& -- ...... the submarine war and declared that the at warfare would bring peace in three months. He then told the for- - Ambassador that President Wll son's peace proposal could not pass the Reichstag': it would be championed only bv the Social sts. adding that a rouen peace\ was Impossible. The discussion turned largely upon the Derlod of the declaration by Ger many of her submarine warfare. Von Bernstorff testified that after President Wilson's message to the Congress on January 22 Col. E. M. House, the Pres Mm.' Minnil.nflal nHvl.tr.

House on the 30th and on the 31st presented the declaration of sub-- 1 marine warfare. Afterward I negotiated ! with nobody.\ Dr. Slnshelmer read Chancellor von Bethmann-Hollwes- 's reply to Von Bern storff accepting mediation, but declining make public Germany's conditions, be- cause in the face of the Entente's an nounced terms that would have been re- garded as a sign of weakness and would prolong the war. For President Wilson's personal in- formation and as a proof of confidence, however. Von Bethmann-Hollwe- g out- lined Germany's conditions and Indi- cated Germany's readiness to partlcl- - natn In the conference mentioned in lh President's message to the Senate. The Chancellor added: 'If President Wilson's offer had been made a few days earlier Germany could have postponed the submarine warfare, which Is now unfortunately impossible.\ Count von Bernstorff said he had communicated everything to Col. House. Von Bernstorff said that alnce return- ing to Germany and learning the Inner details or the proceeaings wnen poato was offered, he was convinced that Ger- many had no Intention of accepting President Wilson's oner. Me startieo his hearers by declaring the United States Federal Reserve Bank had a plan mapped out to deny Entente nations credits, but this plan was again spouea bv the work of submarines. The chair man of the commission asked whether It wan \Imrjosslble to convince Mr. Wilson that warfare Was necessary as a last resort acainst hunger,\ and the former Ambassador replied he had con ferred with Mr. Wilson on the suoject and the President had repeatedly saia 'that If Von Bernstorff met him on the at proposition, he (the President) would see about the hunger blockade. The former Ambassador said the For-- eim Office did not want Air. Wilson to intervene, but that he had consistently advised that the President' good offices be accepted. Von Bernstorff was asked rather sharply whether Captain von Fapen's check book had not-sho- for abotaee. and he replied with some acerbity that the .British had confiscated the check book at Falmouth and that Von Papen had better be sub- poenaed for further details. Herr Schiiccklng asked what had raised American antipathy to Germany beside Belgium and the and Von nxmatorff I redled : \German plots In America, which the United States Gov ernment firmly established.\ ENSIGN EELANQER ACQUITTED.

NOT TO WAH ON RUSSIA Vienna Archives Tell of Va rious Changes in Original Document. Br Ms Attociatei Prttt. VntNMA, Oct 23. One of the hitherto undisclosed provisions of the treaty con ventions of the Triple Alliance has been made public by Dr. Alfred Pribram, pro fessor of history In the University of Vienna, who was permitted access to the State archives. Article It of the original treaty pro vided that Germany and Austria-Hu- n gary should come to Italy's aid In the event of an unprovoked attack by France. Italy was to come to Ger many's assistance If she were attacked by France. But Austria's participation In Germany s behalf was limited to an attack by two Powers. Italy was not expected to assist Germany In a war with Russia. Italy secured the Insertion In the pro tocol of the original treaty of a pro vision to the elect that the Triple Alli- ance was not to enter upon any Ar.glo-pho- be policy. In the renewal of the Triple Alliance, In 1887, this clause was rewritten so that Germany wduld com to Italy s aid In any war with France, even If Italy provoked the conflict But Austria refused to accede to this. A separate agreement was then en- tered Into whereby Austria's participa- tion In Italy's behalf was limited to a war Involving the Balkans or an un- provoked attack by France. Article IV. of the Oerman-Italla- n con- vention contained an expression by Ger- many of her readiness to guarantee Italy's possessions at the cost of France In the event of a successful war. In the renewal of 1891, however, these separate conventions were Incorporated in the trlp'e alliance treaty aa a whole. The crisis of the triple alliance, it Is disclosed, came In 1896, when Italy noti- fied her partners that she would not Join them In any war In which France and England were aligned on the same side. The renewel of 1902 granted Italy a tree hand In Tripoli and In the treaty of 912 a protocol was added recognizing Italy's sovereignty m inpoii. Dr. Pribram says that contrary to the popular belief, there were no defined or detailed military plans In the treaty, which merely provided that In the event of war the three Powers should draw up combined plan or operations, Germany, however, agreeing that in the event of war with France the Italian torces should be permitted to participated on the Rhine front Detailed naval clans fere formulated in the renewal of 1900, to the effect that the three fleets should operate Inde- - oendently. but In 1913 this was aDro- - gated and provision was made for the united operations to secure supremacy In the Mediterranean and prevent tne French colonial forces from reaching tne continent BELA KTJN NOW IN ITALY.
