Supreme Council Atprov TeU of
Letter to NrtherUndis Government
for Etraulitsuei of Former Monarch
The supreme council la session in
Paris on January IStb. approved the
lest of a letter to Dutch government
asking for the extraditiou of the for
mer German emperor.
The general expectation in French
circles is that Holland will refuse to
deliver the former monarch.
It is pointed out in supreme coun
cil circles that in case the Dutch gov
ernment is disinclined to deliver
Count Hohemollern It has a founda
tion for Its resistance In the fact that
offenses named in the Peace Treaty,
namely "crimes against International
morality and the Facredness of
Treaties." are not provided for Dutch
laws nor In the Treaties between Hol
land and the allied powers regarding
extradition.
It is said that the letter to the
Dutch government was drafted by
Frenchmen, who used clauses from
a similiar letter drafted last July by
the American delegation.
At the same time the supreme
council approved the text of a letter
to Germany demanding the surrender
of those guilty of war crimes, as pro
vided for in the Peace Treaty.

Man in MiaiJ4 Held for Butchery
of AluioHt Entire Family.
Aberdeen, Miss.. Jan. It. Charles
Marshall, charged with murder in
, connection with the killing last night
near Aniory of Robert Miller, forty
seven, a farmer; Leon Miller, sixteen,
his son; Annie Green Miller, seven
teen, his daughter, and Burley Miller,
teu-mouths-old. was held in the coun
ty jail to-night under a strong guard.
Public feeling is intense and precau
tions have been taken to guard
against possible attempts to mob vio
lence. Pearl May Miller, thirteen, the only
survivor of the family, is said to have
J witnessed the crime from the loft of
the Miller farm house, and, according
! to Sheriff J. B. Lewis, has charged
Marshall with the quadrupled killing.
Marshall whs convicted about a
year ago of a statutory offense against
the young woman killed and was at
liberty under bond pending an ap
peal. Pearl Miller is quoted by the sheriff
as accusing Marshall of first throw
ing a stick of dynamite on the roof
of the house, the explosion tearing a
hole in the roof but failing to injure
any of the family. Then he entered
the house, the girl Is said to have
told the sheriff, shot her father,
brother and sister, and clubbed the
baby with a piece of wood, after
which he is alleged to have poured
oil on the floor from a lamp and set
the building afire. Seeing her, the
girl stated, the man started climbing
to the loft where she was in hiding,
but she escaped through the hole
torn by the dynamite in the roof and
fled to the home of a neighbor.
The charred bodies of Miller and
menilicrs of his family were found to
day in the ruins of the farm house.

Decision to withdraw the American
troops Iroiu Siberia upon the comple
tion of the repatriation of the Czecho
slovak forces next month haa been
reached by the American government.
The troops were sent to Siberia,
iu accord with an agreement between
the I'nited States, Japan and the en
tente powers to aid the Cserhos and
protect the Siberian railroad. Japaii
has been notified by the I'nited State
of the cancelation of that agreemeat
in so far as it affects the presence tf
an American military expedition.
When the Ciechos have been re
moved, the American railroad com
mission, headed by John F. Steven,
which has been In Russia sine? be
fore the fall of the former czar's gov
ernment, will leave Vladivostok for
home. The American soldiers under
Major-General Graves will follow a
soon as transports can be made avail
able. Presumbly the same ships wMch
are to take the Czecho-Slovak troo.n
across the Pacific will be used. Two
of these vessels, the President Grant
and America, are expected to leave
New York within a few days.
With the departure of the Amer
icans Japan will be left alone to as
sist the loyal Russians In their ef
forts to stem the eastward march of
the bolshevikl. The rapid progress
made by the soviet forces has been a
source of Apprehension in Japan end
the caWinet at Tokio has beea con
sidering means of combating w h it
Japanese officials generally regard as
a serious menace.
Suggestions have been made that
Japan materially incre:iM its fo-cv' of
thirty thousand troops in Siberia :it!l
it ha opened nesot iatit'!: wi'li 1'ie

The American forc unmhert about

Siberia last suinm-r. lis presence has
been the subject of numerous spirited
debates in the Senate and resulted in
the adoption of a resolution calliiiK
upon Presindent Wilson for a state

In reply to this resolution, the state
