DECLARE KAISER DOOMED. Hindenberg, Says Attache, Will lie First President of (Germany. "If there is a revolution in Germany it will be led by Hindenberg." This is the astounding statement made the other day by a neutral military attache with the German army who has just come from German headquart ,-rs 021 urgent''private business to London. "What I say is a fact," he continued. "If the Hohenzollern dynas-j tv is to be overthrown. Hindenburg is the man who will overthrow it and I before the war is over you may see Von Hindenburg the first president of the United German republic. "Germany is ripening for a revolution. It is not merely that the mass of the people are suffering greatly, and are growing daily more discontented. However great their suffering and their discontent, the masses in Germany would probably never dare to break out into open revolt. "But it is not the masses alone who are discontented in Germany. The wealthy middle class are in an Avon pTAator state of anger and rest lessness than the masses. I happen to know that a couple of weeks ago there was a private meeting of some of the most influential commercial and business men in Berlin. The gathering was held at the house of Herr Ballin, the great shipping magnate. Herr Ballin is one of the kaiser's most intimate friends, but Herr Ballin is also a business man, and his vast private interests are of much more concern to him than his friendship with the emperor. 'Our loyalty to the emperor has cost us half of our fortune already,' he said. 'We shall not allow it to cost- us the other half.1 A resolution was passed at the meeting to send the following * message to the kaiser, 'Win the war or end the war.' "I believe that there would be a revolution in Germany tomorrow but "for one fact?that no revolution in any country, least of all in Germany, . is possible that is not supported by the army, and the only man whom oi?mr nrnnl/? fnllow in a rovnl t WUQ UA UiJ VUiU 4V**W ?? *** v ' w would be Hindenburg. "Von Hindenburg is at the pinnacle of his popularity. He is the idol of the German people. All the successes that have attended the German army have be6n scored by the German idol. And if Hindenburg is an idol to the civil population in Germany he is something even more to the rank and file of the German army."?London Answers. THREE YEARS GIVEN TEAL. 18 Months of Teacher's Sentence Suspended.?Will Appeal. Greenville, March 21.?Prof. W. Archie Teal, of Hartsville, who was found guilty Tuesday night on the charge of seduction under promise pf marriage to a young lady of Traveler's Rest, was sentenced today by Judge Mendel * L. Smith . to three years, with eighteen months suspended, provided the defendant pays to the mother for the support of the child the sum of $100, on the first of each January for six years, and then $150 on the first of January of each year until the child is fifteen years of age. Immediately after the Hartsville teacher was sentenced his attorneys gave notice of appeal and the case will go to the supreme court. Temporary cash bond in the sum of $1,500 has been arranged until the bond can be fixed. That the course of justice was interfered with by the presence in the court room of several well known and prominent ladies of the city, and that other agencies were used to i make public sentiment favor the prosecutrix will, it is understood from a reliable source, be among the grounds for appeal. JOHNSON ELECTROCUTED. Slayer of the Rev. Hugh Harrelson Pays the Death Penalty. Columbia, March 23.?John Johnson, colored, was electrocuted at the State penitentiary this morning for the murder of the Rev. Hugh Har relson, cf Dillon county, last November. Three times the death-dealing electric current was applied before the negro was pronounced dead by the penitentiary physician. No relatives appeared to claim the body and it was buried in the potter's field by the prison authorities. The condemned man had nothing to say when given the last opportunity for a statement after being strapped in the electric chair and before the black mask was adjusted about his head. He confessed to the crime when tried at Dillon and told Sheriff Lane, of Dillon county, yesterday that he had nothing to add to what he told at his trial. He went to the electric chair in a stoical manner and apparently had abandoned all hope of anything but death weeks ago. He said several days ago that he had made his peace with his Maker and was ready to meet his fate. Read The Herald, $1.50 a year. TAKE U. S. TWO YEARS TO AID. Couldn't Supply Adequate Force for Trench in I^ess Time, Says Beith. The united States could be of no material aid to the allies so far as supplying men is concerned, for at least two years, in the opinion of Captain Ian Hay Beith, who lectured at the academy of music in Philadelphia last Thursday on "The Human Side of Trench \Varfare." "The American army lacks artillery. the most necessary branch of a modern forced" declared Captain Beith. "The infantry, seasoned after the experience of the border, needs j less training than the British at the outbreak of the war, but the allied ormioc are fllrparlv nvprstnckpd with ai UiiVO v** V vvv?^ w . w.w.w. _ ? infantry. "In another year the need of such soldiers may be greater, and may turn the scales in favor of the British, but at present the formation of an American legion from the volunteers already in the trenches might prove of as great moral value as an entire expeditionary force from this side. ' "Whatever Americans went over for the next year would have to be prepared to sacrifice themselves to gain time*for those who would follow them. The big problem would be equipping them with heavy guns, in order to fight with all the advan tages of the experience learned on the western front." Captain Beith, who is better known to many by his pen name, "Ian Hay," ridiculed the fears held in this country of dangers from German spies and from the crews of the interned raiders, characterizing the methods of the Teuton espionage system as "inferior and mechanical with no sense of proportion." 26,000 More Men Needed. Washington, March 25.?Following is the executive order bringing the navy up to war strength: "By virtue of the authority vested in the president by the act of congress approved August 29 1916, entitled, 'An act making appropriations for the naval service for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1917, and for other purposes,' it is hereby directed that the authorized enlisted strength of the navy be increased to 87,000 men. (Signed) "WOODROW WILSON." The navy must enroll immediately approximately 26,000 men to reach the required strength. Secretary Daniels supplemented it tonight with personal telegrams to newspaper editors all over the country urging them to aid the department in every way in their power to obtain men. REPUBLIC IX SIGHT? Leading Russian Party Said to Have Voted for This Form. v London, March 24.?The central committee and the parliamentary representatives of the constitutional Democratic party at Petrograd voted today in favor of a Republican form of government for Russia, according to a Petrograd dispatch. Prof. MiluKoff, the foreign minister in the nev government, is the leader of this par Foreign Minister Milukoff has out lined the attitude pf the new Russia: government in foreign affairs to a number of Petrograd and Moscow journalists. A Reuter dispatch fron Petrograd quotes the foreign minis ter as saying: "We shall remaii faithful to all past alliances similai to that with our allies, which will be still further strengthened and be come still more cordial and sincere The change in the regime will dis perse the distrust our allies had < right to feel toward the late govern ment. It is Russia's duty to con tinue the struggle brilliantly botl for her own liberty and that of al Europe. "By the change in regime we def initely won the sympathy of neutral: especially Sweden, while Finland thanks to the restoration of her con stitution has become our sincen friend. Our allies came into toucl j with the new regime wunoui au iu stant's delay, understanding that th< old regime was a, serious hindranc* to that organization of the Russiai people which is necessary for a fina triumph. 'Today Russia is no longer a deat weight in the coalition of allies. Sh< is a productive force. Henceforth al rumors of separate peace must van ish once for all. It would be anti national for freed Russia to come t< an understanding with reactionar: Germany." Got $."580 Off His Back Lot. G.
