REFUSAL BY HOLLAND f] TO DEMAND OF ALLIES < 1 Dutch Government Declares it is Not !: Party to Treaty.?Traditions J i Called on to Support Claims. < 1 b Paris, Jan. 23.?The demand of the entente' powers that Holland de- i ^ liver up to them Former Emperor j William of Germany that he may be j tried "for a supreme offense against; international morals and the sanctity j of treaties" has been refused by; Holland. t j. - j-ii i it:. ..ri. i in a note uemereu uns iuieuiuun , to the foreign office the Dutch min-! ^ ister, Holland takes the ground that. 1 the Dutch government is not a party j( to the peace treaty which condemned 1 William Hohenzollern and that it canj* not recognize as an international duty j1 the necessitv to associate itself with I I A '*this act of high international policy ; 1 of the powers." j* It declares also that the constitu-'1 tent law of the kingdom and the tra- ,1 dition of the country, always a J ground of refuge for the vanquished in international conflicts, will not per- j * mit the government to defer to the j 1 wishes of the entente by withdrawing 1 from the former emperor the benefit S? of its lawrs and traditions. The dec- ^ laration is made that the people of;c the Netherlands can not betray the c faith of those who have confided * themselves to Holland's free institu-;0 tions. * jc The text of the reply: ^ "By verbal note, dated January 15, \c 1920, given to the envoy of the queen I at Paris, the powers referring to j1 Article 227 of the treaty of Versail- j les, demand that the government of j ?- " ? 1 ii 1 ? j_ nr.*ii; ' I Woiiand give into me nanas w imam ofHohenzollern, former emperor of i* Germany, so that he may be tried. j "Supporting this demand they ob- ^ serve that if the former emperor had * remained in Germany the German 1 government would, under the terms c of Artiflp 9.9X of the treatv of oeaee have been obliged to deliver him. e "In citing: as premeditated viola- c tions of international treaties as well * as a systematic disregard of the most c sacred rules of the rights of man a number of acts committed during the * war by German authority, the powers c place the responsibility, at least mor- 11 ally, upon the former emperor. j 0 "They express the opinion that Holland would not fulfill her interna-.v tional duty if she refused to associate herself with them within the limit of v her ability, to pursue or at least not fi to impede, the punishment of crimes d committed. I ? "They emphasize the special char-! G acter of their demands, which contem- w plate not a juridical accusation but CJ an act of high international policy j b' and they make an appeal to Holland's a] resDect of law and love of justice not ^ - v - ? _ to cover with her mor&l * authority &] violation by Germany of the essential Sl principles of the solidarity of nations. 'The queen has the honor to observe, first, that obligations which for ' C Germany could have resulted from ' A Article 228 of the treaty of peace can ' not serve to determine the duty of *e Holland, which is not a party to the j treaty. icc "The government of the queen,'cc moved by imprescriptible reasons, can in not view the question raised by the j demand of the powers except from : the point of view of its duty. It was ' pT absolutely unconnected with the M origin of the war and has main- b< tained, and not without difficulty, its : th neutrality to the end. It finds itself then face to face with facts of the : war in a position different from that of the powers. ' n< "It rejects with energy all suspi- si ,cion of wishing to cover with its sov- j Si ereign right and its moral authority f 0J violations of the essential principles '; of the solidarity of nations; but it I q can not recognize an international, duty to associate itself with this act: p of high international policy of the u powers. | r( "If in the future there should be j 0 -?iAnc n n 4-1 ITIbl* 1 III 11 CI t IIC i?UV ICt \ \J A 11C4 i, 1 V/ uo c\ a a ^ J international jurisdiction competent p to judge in case of war deeds, qualifi-' J ed as to crimes and submitted to the fc acts committed, it would be fit for;a Holland to associate herself with the -f i new regime. ; ( "The government of the queen can a not admit in the present case any; t other duty than that imposed upon it j ] "by the laws of the kingdom and na- j tional tradition. | ( "Now, neither, the constituen? laws < of the kingdom, which are based upon I i the principles of law universally rec- j j ognized, nor a respectable secular i j tradition which has made this country , 1 always a ground of refuge for then vanished in international conflicts, 11 permit the government of Holland to | < - - - > i ii-.

MEXICAN PLOT WIDE IN SCOPE Senate Committee Hearing Develops Charges Against Carranza and His Principal Lieutenants. San Antonio, Texas, Jan. 22.?

This was supported by testinony by John A. Walls, the district ittorney at Brownsville, Texas; L. R.; Barnes, in charge of the United states army intelligence work along he border during the war, and other .itnesses. The committee obtained from them ! md from documentary evidence in- j * 11 A.

"Plans of San Diego.'* Summarized the plan of San )iego, a copy of which was read into he record, follows: * * r*-? \r tic : : "The states ot Texas, i\ew iuexico, j .^olorado, Arizona and California are o be invaded simultaneously with upisings of Mexican and negro citizens ?n the American side. "A separate government is to be stablished and reannexation to Mexio requested. Six other states con-1 iguous to this territory are to be arved out of the United States to be ormed into a republic under the pro- ' ection of Mexico. This is to be acomplished in a ruthless manner. All lale Americans more than 16 years f age are to be killed.*' The document itself is about :^,uuu ,rords long. ; The character of the testimony de eloped three phases of the program,; rst that which took the form of bor- j er raids beginning in 1915, the sec-1 nd that held out as a bait by the ermans in the Zimmermann note hen they dangled before the Mexi- j ans the prospect of recovering the i. order states with the .possible assist- j nee of Japan. The third is closely ' Hied with the impetus that has been :, iven the Bolshevist movement and in :. lpport of that charge Chairman Fall j mounted there would be placed be- j. >re the committee evidence showing!, arranza is yet offering support to ' ugustin Garza, mentioned in the*, an of San Diego as the military ;. ader, and the minutes of a meeting ( f anarchistic organizations in Mexi-1 ^ ) said to indicate the existence of a ^ >nspiracy to foment labor uprisings ] the United States. 1 ] Testimony of Attorney. 1 \ Mr. Walls was the attorney who 1 -osecuted the cases of a few of the ! exicans captured in raids across the j )rder near Brownsville. Four of ] iese were convicted and sentenced to ?ath, but their lives were saved by a * jcision of the Texas court of crimi-, * il appeals which held that they could ,' Dt be punished since the evidence i lowed Mexico and the United' tates were at that time win a state < f war." i. ? ? What is taken as evidence that j arranza was backing the plan in ; 915 and 1916 is contained in a re-, ort to the state department which ; as made a part of the committee's j 2cord. The report is the statement j f a man used by thfe principals in i tie working out the organization and rogram. He said he was sent to j esus Acuna, minister of gobernacion,! y Eliseo Arrendondo, Carranza's mbassador designate in Washington, j or instructions. Acuna sent him to General Zuazus who was maintaining I m office in Mexico city in the same I milding with Augustin Garza, alias j -,ina Caballo. They dined with him j frequently, he said, discussing the ; carrying out of the plan of San Diego >r "the Texas revolution," as it was Uso referred to by them. He was isked bv them to assist in raising funds for the work. The author of the statement said he asked if Carranza knew of this plan and was told "that part was all fixed" and that any commission which they issued him in connection with the plan of San Diego, presented anywhere, would secure him ample protection.

Mr Quigley declared that the leaders oi the city wide swindle can not escape The amounts collected Dy iiu "agents," it was said, varied from $1 to $500, and in several instances large quantities of liquor were confiscatec by the imostors. The members of the band, according to Mr. Quiglev, were carefully selected by the genuine revenue agents, a qualification being the ability to use firearms in the event oi a trap. The imitation badge shown by the swindlers when they discovered a saloon keeper violating the law, in variably brought results, ne aaaea, and little argument was required to obtain payment from the frightened liquor dealers. In one instance, he said, the self appointed "agents" visited a saloon with women companions and after trapping the proprietor, demanded whiskey as well as money. Then they adjourned to a rear room to celebrate. California wine and Kentucky whiskey are rolling into New York at the rate of four car loads daily, Mr. Quigley asserted. The wine is valued at $300 a barrel and 150 barrels come in each car. load. The owners of the liquor ' have permits placing it in bond for sale to druggists or manufacturers. The shipments were held up by car shortage, he said, or were delayed in transit until too late to be put aboard ship for export.
