Overwhelming in its horrible revelations, it will.fnform those who are igorant of the real cause of our war with Ger ‘many. In rapid succession are shown James W. Gerard's reception by the Kalser, the meeting i the Palace Gardens, the protest against the elak= ing of the Lusitania, the investigation of the Dase hospital, where fnterned British soldiers are driven mad by filth and disease; the Billing of the ucless old, ravaging of innocent girls, the Banquet Hall in the Hobeasollera Palace, the attack oa the U. S. Embassy. "Each scene exposed the intrigue and plots of state, the atrocities of the treacherous Germans and thelr pretense of ‘cordiallty, which, however,’falled to deceive Ambaseador Gerard. ‘A company of truly great actors gave lifelike portrayals of the various familiar characters, the Impersonation of the kalser by Louis Dean being ‘very good.
