Pan-Germans Also on Trail Kuehlmann for Peace Failure.

1 AMSTERDAM, Jan. S. The social democratic party, says a Herlin dispatch, has adopted a resolution that In iew of the occurrences at MrestIatovsk and the annexationists attack on the people's right of selfdetermination, it aKain declares that a lasting peace Is only possible if the democratic people of self-determination is honestly carried out. The party demands that free and absolutely independent expression of will shall be guaranteed to the peoples concerned. The social democratic party also unanimously approved Its representatives' standpoint in the main committee of the reichstag and has resolved resolutely to combat the misuse of the right of self-determination for the purpose of disguised annexations. AMSTERDAM. Jan. S. There was a more calm feeling in German parliamentary circles Sunday afternoon, according to the Tageblatt, "and the reichstag majority parti firmly intended to support the government." (hi the other hand the socialists hold meetings on Sumlay. which Vorwaerts calls "perhaps the most momentous" since August, 1914. The socialist organ says that the socialist party will make Its at1 titutle dependent on whether the government returns to the declarations made on Dec. 2.". In the meantime, the Taueblatt says, the annexationists are making every eifort to overthrow Foreign Sec'y von Kuehlmann, certain serious consequences being threatened openly if Vie ttay in office. lb. Wekerle, the Hungarian premier, and Fr. von Wimnur. the Austrian minister of finance, arrived in Uerlin. Tirpit: lamls Stand. Admiral von Tirpitz, voicing the demands of th fatherland party and tho pan-Germans regarding tho negot ir tior.s with llussia, has telegraphed to Chancellor von Hertlinir, formally commending the firm stand taken by tho chancellor towards the liussian demands. In tlie position taken by Russia, rays the admiral, is seen "the fruit of 10 days' work of the entente." He claims the transfer of the negotiations to Stockholm would constitute a decisive step on the path to a general peace which would have no regard for Germany's vital needs. The . Rheinische Westfälische Zeitung attacks Dr. von Kuehlmann's conduct at the Mrest-Litovsk negotiations, which it considers responsible, it says for the intention of Gen. von Ludendorff, right-hand man of Field Marshal von Hindenburc. to resign. (An official F.erlin dispatch last niuht denied a report published In several German newspapers that Gen. von Laidendorft had tendered his resignation.) The newspaper regards any further cooperation between the army command and Dr. von Kuehlmann as impossible. CAMP TAYLOR PRIVATE SENTENCED TEN.YEARS International News Service: DOFD-'VIDDK. Ky Jan. S.

at tin: olivi:k. "So Long Dotty,' one of the snappiest musical farces, with just enough risque lines to carry it alonj; with a whirl and a swing, is to be the attraction at the Oliver theater this evening and tomorrow matinee and night. "So Dong Letty" is different from the average musical farce that has been forced upon tho theater-going public. The lines are bright, the music has the right jingle and the costuming and stage effects are all that could be desired. "So Long Detty" is just the kind of a musical farce that should meet with the approval of those who seek the theater for amusement and to drive away the blues anil boost up the jaded. "So Long Ditty" is produced and written by Oliver Morosco, with Dimer Harris. The music and lyrics are by Karl Carroll and the entire production is stauotl under the direction of Mr. Morosco. "S Dong Detty" was first produced at Dos Angeles, Calif., where it ran for a season of 20 weeks. Afterward it had most successful runs in many of the large cities of the west and cast, running in Chicago all last summer. The story deals with two families in the street car colony f San Francisco. There is an exchange of wives through a prearranged agreement c! the husbands. The complications are many ami the fun incessant. Mr. Morosco has assembled one of his famous "typical Morosco casts" ftir the pmductbin. In addition to the capable principals, there is a ( lioriia of California I.K autit .-. Charles Dillingham's prodin tion of Irving F.erlin's greatest musical comedy success, "Stop: Dook! Listen!" is announced as one of the bookings at the Oliver theat'-r Monday eenir.g, Jan. 11. Tire piot centers around a young thorns girl who demands a chance in the loading role of a star play when the prima donna sudtlenly decides ti forsake the stage. She secures the able asistain-e of a pres agent and the sth-mirg of this hurtling individual finally results in the chorus girl being beggetl to accept, the position om e denied Jk r. A (.i.-t of exceedingly cber principal-, who contribute enough vaudeville turns to furnish a first c!a-s bill alone, many pretty girls, and the licht, entrancing music of Irving F.erlin. the most popular and best known of ragtime composers, all combine tn make '"Stop! Look! Listen!" well worth its name. "The Mad Dover" is the unusual title of . a delightfully presented comedy-drama shown at the Oliver theater for three days, boirinnins Friday. Robert Warwick, the wellknown and popular screen star, is the featured player in a -tory 50 human and natural in its characters that it will hohl the attention of any-audience and leave with them a pleasant impression. Flaine Han. merstein is seen to pood ailvantapo in tho role of a youn? wife, who so arouses the jealousy of her husband that, in the rehearsal of an amateur perf'jrmance of " thello," he plan? to choke her. The remarkably beautiful settings include a number of woodland scenes, while the interiors are well-chosen and artistic in the extreme. AT Tin: A FDITOIUl .M. Thela Rara is at her best in her new picture. "The Rose of Rlood." which opened a two days' run at the Auditorium theater yesterday. Rarely has the noted star attained the heisht-s of emotional success which she reaches in this picture. Nor has she often had a vehicle which affords such opportunities for varying moods, conflicting emotions and changing expression. "The Rose of Flood" is a story of the Russian revolution. Instead of concerning it?elf with the circumscribed lives of cr.irs and prie.ts. howrvr, it coos into the heart of the Russian people and md hllej shows what thev wer i'.oin? while their irovernrnent was beir.ir ov turned.

The Pathe News and a funny "Duke comedy will also be on the bill. AT Tili: CASTI.I-:. Carlyle HlackwVll is the Castle's star again today in "The Good-For-Xothing," a five-reel drama of heart appeal. Beginning tomorrow, a new Bluebird release, entitled "Mother O Mine," and starring Rupert Julian, who is also the author, is the Castle's five-reel attraction. The pathetic story of a mother who visits her wealthy son in the city, only to be introduced to his society friends as his "old nurse," is told tn this human classic, which is filled to the brim with heart interest. Really loving his mother very much and ashamed of his action, the son leaves the city, breaking his engagement to a society girl, and returns to the country to devote the rest of his life to making his mother happy. A novel feature of the new bill now playing at the. Orpheum theater is the spectacular electrical dancing novelty presented by Mine. M. "ronin.
