TOWER OF LONDON TO HOLD E.V-KA1SER Wilhelm 11. To Be Jailed In White Tower During Trial. Walls Are 15 Feet Thick London, July 12.?"Tower of London receives the Ex-Kaiser." At sonic time in the not distant future we may expect, it appears, to read this headline, in staring capitals.' across the front page of o.ir morn-, ing pane:. Some tine day we Arneri-I cans who make our temporary homes | here, will join the vast crowd that; assuredly v. ii! gather to try to snatch u glimpse of V.'iihelm 11, or. his way to confinement in the grim stronghold in which so many famous figures of the past dragged down from their high t. talc, languished in captivity and met their death. ; And, a few days later, we may again be struggling for a point o: vantage in the throng that will line j the streets of this metropolis through! which the Ex-Kaiser is conveyed' from the Tower to Westminister \ Ha'l, or the iCoyai L;ourTs 01 ousuce i or the prim Old Built by William' the Conqueror in 1078 decided that the "Butcher of Berlin" shall stand his trial for the crime against law and humanity with which he stands charged. For, ; as all the world knows, it has now been announced authorita-; tively that the Kaiser, on being sur-1 rendered by Holland, will be brought) to England for trial, and that the Tower of London will be his place of confinement. This would be sufficient in itself to center world-wide' interest once again upon the famous fortress, prison and former royal palace whose long history is stained with so much human blood, and' which so many American travelers have visited at one time or another. Now, however, comes the additional announcement that the principal German army and naval commanders who will be charged with specific atrocities on land and sea soon as the peace treaty is ratified, are also to be confined in the Tower and that arrangements are now being made for their reception there, "at f an early date." The Kaiser, it is stated, will be imprisoned in the White Tower, which is the great central building of the historic fortress, and its old-. est part. Built by William the Con-! queror in 1078, it is a nearly square i /..i. . building, measuring xio ieti uvm t east to west and 107 from north to i south. At the corner are turrets, j three square and one circular. The j walls in the lower part are 15 feet' thick, decreasing to 11 feet in thei upper story. Its main floor and its famous dungeons were opened to the public only so recently as in 1916. The main floor contained the private apartments of William the Conqueror and it is probably there that William the Defeated will be housed. Beneath, in the crypt leading to the dungeons, 45,000 rifles used to be stored?representing London's chief ; preparation for mobilization. It was in the White Tower that Sir Walter Raleigl. was confined previous to his execution at Westminister, and in the stonework of its winding stairway that the bones were discovered of the little princes who were done to death in the adjacent Bloody Tower, by order of Richard III. Arrangements are now being made to fit up-the White Tower for occu, pancy by the Ex-Kaiser. Suitable furniture will be provided and rooms will also be set apart there for one 10552!
