(By International News Service.)
. LONDON, Jan. 11.—In a ringing
speech at Guild Hall this afternoon
Premier Lloyd-George declared that
war is better than peace “at the price
of Prussian domination.”
This, declared the Premier, was
made plain in the Allies’ note to Ger
many and still! clearer in the En
tentes' answer to President Wilson.
The Cerman proposal last month
was not a genuine peace offer, the
Premier declared.
“The Germans did not offer terms,”
said the Premier “They offered a
trap balted with fair words This
might have tempted us once, but now
the British lion has his eyes open.”
The Premlier reiterated his former
declaration that Prussian militarism
shall not dominate Europe. That is
one of the big aims of the allled
powers, he said,
Mr. Lloyd-George salid that the
Kalser is telling his people that Eng
land rejected his peace offer.
“But,” he cried, “that is only to
drug those whom he can not dra
goon.”
In continuation, the Premlier sald
that “the Prussian menace is a run
ning mortgage that is detracting
value from our national security. That
mortgage must be cleared off for
ever.” The speaker urged the people
to respond to the urgent need of
}mm)m; adding
“When the time comes for a tri
umphal march through darkness and
terror to the bright dawn of a new
<Age of peace and security they will
feel that they have done their share”
The Premier laid emphasis upon the
necessity for every person to sub
scribe as much of the new loan as he
could, calling it “the loan of victory.”
Every well-directed check, he sald,
I a more formidable weapon of de
struction than a 12-inch shell and will
“Clear a path through barbed-wire
entanglements for our brave fellows
to rush
A big loan, declared the speaker,
will win the war
Premier Lioyd.George predicted
victory for the Allies this year if the
People exert themselives to the yutmost
Fhe Premier's speech was received
with rounds of cheers
It was delivered at the “war loan”

Manchester Guardi
(By International News Service.)
LONDON, Jan. 11.—The Manchester Guardian today states,
regarding the Allies’ reply to President Wilson :
Restitution, reparation and securities are demanded, and
the note gives some indications of the aims of the Allies in
redrawing the map of Europe. The principle governing this
must be the question of nationalities.
Certain formulas are mentioned.
Belgium must regain her independence 'and be indemni
fied for her losses.
The boundaries of France must be redrawn in a spirit
of restitution.
Italy must be redeemed for her provinees and the bound
aries of the Balkans must be redrawn in conformity with
nationality and history.
Russia must have access to a warm sea
Great Britain is not mentioned, nor is the question of
the colonies.
The reply also deals with America’s proposals for a
league to enforce peace, which it approves in principle, but
questions how such a league can be brought about.

BERLIN (via Sayville wireless),
Jan. 11.—The German Government
today gave to the neutral Govern

Allies to the original German note of
December 12, containing the proposi

The note says:
“Our adversaries decline this prop

without sincerity and without impor

“The form In which they clothe
their communication excludes an an

point out to the Governments of neu

“The Central Powers have no reae

note continues.

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 11.—Late this afternoon physicians at
St. Mary’s Hospital stated that the symptoms shown hy Thaw in
his extreme delirium and weakness made it appear that he had con.
sumed some of the bichloride tablets, seven of which were found in
his pockts.
(By International News Service.
PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 11.—Harry K. Thaw attempted to kill
himself by cutting his throat with a razor this afternoon just as
detectives were closing in on a West Philadelphia residence to
arrest him.
He was rushed in an ambulance to St. Mary's Hospital, where
Iphysicinns said his condition was serious. Dr. John Wanamaker,
police surgeon, later announced, after a short examination, that
‘Thaw ‘‘has a fair chance of recovery.'’
t The scores of detectives who have been combing the East for
Thaw for the last two days learned of his suicide attempt almost
‘limnluneomly with the knowledge of his location. They were)
'seeking him on a warrant issued in New York, charging Thaw with
flogging Frederick Gump, Jr., a 19-year-old Kansas City high schoo!
boy, in a Broadway hotel on Christmas night.
Besides the wounds in Thaw's
throat—two long slashes—there
are also cuts on both wrists,
hacked by Thaw in his frenzy,
according to physicians.
Thaw's family In Pittsburg learned
of the suicide attempt before the local
police or New York detectives here
searching for him. Occupants of the
house where Thaw had been hiding
since he learned detectives were after
him notified his relatives of the act
over the long-distance telephone.
They immediately got in touch with
Dr. John Kirby, an old friend of the
‘umuy here, and Dr. Kirby got in
touch with Captain Tate at police
headquariers.
Urged to Aid Thaw.
Thaw's relatives told Dr. Kirby to
do everything possible for him.
The ambulance an dthe detectives
reached the residence where Thaw
was hiding at about the same time. A
great crowd collected. Thaw was
brought out on a stretcher, a blanket
completely covering the stretcher and
chielding him from the public view,
Feeble moans came from under the
covering.
At 3:30 p. m. it was announced by
Dr. Kirby that Thaw was uncon
sclous.
“He Is semiconscious at intervals™
announced the physician. “He is ner
vous and hysterical at these intervals,
but I think he has a fair chance of re
covery.”
The detectives who had been
searching for Thaw for two days, and
who know him well because of their
long association, declared that they
had feared Thaw would attempt to
take his life. |
Worried Over Charges.
The disgrace over the charges made
against him by the Gump boy, they
said, had undoubtedly weighed heav
ily on his mind, Similar charges made
during his sanity trials—that he
whipped young girls after tying them
to the bed post—almost moved him to
hysterical anger.
The first direct information that
Thaw was In Philadelphia came by
telephone to Dr. Kirby.
“This is a member of Harry K.
