Dutch government officials say they are convinced the former emperor of Germuny is not involved in the counter revolution which swept the Kbert government out of Berlin. Watch is kept over him, it is declared.

Observers here assort, however, that Count Hohenzollern has been unusually nervous during the last few days and lias shown great impatience at vurious times. While engaged 'in his woodsawing, it is said he has" been seen to stop and run around to and fro and give other evidences of nervous tension. On Tuesday the former emi)eror completed the sawing of his sixteen thousandth tree-and there was quite a celebration of the event, members of the household and local authorities of Amerongen being present.

IMAint.j Berlin. March 14. The two govern ments of Germany are now matching wits and forces to gain control of ths republic.

Outside of Hennepin county the name of Hoover lia not been included but. In some places, stickers will be used by Hoover supporters.

Appearance of soalled "trick" delegate tickets yesterday angered the supporters of Johnson, Lowden, Hoover and Polndexter. They also angered those friends of General Wood who are interested only in hi candidacy and who are tet interested in the delegate fight. The regular Republican organization delegates, pledged to support the choice of the people, will be listed on tickets beaming the insignia of the "Vote the elephant ticket," was the word sent out by managers for Johnson.

Cables from London and Paris reporting tho uprising in Germany reaehia the State department today, but the only direct word "from that country merely con firmed press reports of the arrival at Dresden of President Ebert and some of his associates in the old Berlin government.

The department did not make public the Dresden message In text or the reports from the British and French capitals which were said only to contain summaries of the press reports published in those cities. Pending direct advices and a clear understanding of the Bltuation in Berlin and the scope of the new movement, officials would not comment. Silence was maintained at the War department although it was regarded as probable thnt a -summary of the new situation as it affects Allied and American troops holding the Rhine bridge was soon to be expected from MaJ. Gen. Henry T.

Allen, commanding the American forces. The fact that a council of the military commanders on the Rhine had been called, coupled with the report from Paris that Marshal Foch had gone to attend the meeting was regarded as significant. Aijy steps contemplated by the Allies and involving the use of troops It was thought would find their origin at this conference. America Technically at War. What part American troops might pluy on the situation appeared highly doubtful.

It was pointed out that the American forces in Germany arc on an entirely different footing from, the French or British, as the United States technically still is at war with Germany. Armistice conditions govern the American forces while the Allied commandersr are under the terms of the Treaty of Versailles. General AUen has more than 13,000 'AnierVtcn troops under his command. The total number in Europe on March 8 was a number of detach-' ments are scattered in various parts of France engaged in closing out wartime enterprises. The force on the Rhne is composed of two brigades, the first at Coblens, composed of the Eighth infantry, First battalion, First field artillery, First field signal battalion.

Companies and First engineers, two provisional troops of cavalry and the usual hospital, transport and supply units; and the second commanded by Col. William H. Sage, at Andernach about. 35 kilometers from the Rhine from Coblens. 6econd brigade includes the Fifth and Fiftieth infantry sent over to carry out the American part in policing the Silesia plebiscite area.

When this was prevented, due to the fact that the United States had not ratified the treaty, the brigade was retained in the American area on the Rhine. Command Completely Motorized. An unusual feature of General Allen's command. Is that It Is completely motorized. Including the artillery.

Whatever may be the outcome of the military conference on the Rhine Ifc was believed by officers that General Allen's function would be limited to defense of his area. As a war measure, it was suggested the President could direct such operations as he deemed necessary to compel the carrying out of the armis tice terms, but It was added that nothing had developed In Germany so far as known which could be clearly regarded as a violation of the armistice. Paris reports of uprisings in cities along the Rhine also attracted attention as they were taken to indicate the probability that General Allen. soon would come directly Into touch with the new situation In Germany. His action, ss reported from Coblens, In Informing Socialist leaders In his territory that If they could not preserve order American troops would, was taken as Indicating that the American commander's, course would be to concern himself only with seeing that no disturbances occur In his territory.

Washington, March 14. Overthrow of the Socialist movement in Germany is the climax, of a persistent, heavily-subsidy seed and nation-wld campaign waged during tho past, six niopths. The promotors or the were the so-called -ISatWmtllst parties, comprising the Prussian Junkers, tho pan-Germans, tht Militarists, the Monarchists and the "'big business" magnates. Propaganda on behalf of their program has been ppenly conducted. Money to push it has been forthcoming liberally from the Krupps and the other industrial barons of Rbjneland.

Westphalia, Silesia and Saxony and from tho money kings of 'Berlin, Hamburg and Frant-fort. From headquarters in the Wllhelm-strasse, Berlin, the campaign has been prosecuted with typical Prussian thoroughness; one of Its principal objects was to buy up Influential daily newspapers In all parts of the country. This was being accomplished with Increasing success from day to day. Two powerful "industrial Junkers" (Hugenberg, managing director of Krupps, and Hugo Stinn'es, the Rhenish coal dictator), formed In January a corporation called the "Vera Publishing company," for the specific purpose of securing control surreptitiously of newspaper properties. Those Journals would thenceforward plead the Nationalist cause out of apparently disinterested motives, tho real ownership being cunningly concealed.

They became "Germany's battalion of death." They grew bolder from month to month in their threats of vengeanc on he Ebert-Noske administration If It continued fo yield humbly to Allied demands.
