Berlin, Jan. 13. "So long as this situation continues and the consequences are pot removed Germany will not be in a position to
carry out her obligations towards those Powery which brought them about," delare identical German motes handed to the French and Belgian representatives this afternoon in reply to a notification relative to tha Ruhr. The reply contends that such action contravenes the Treaty, violates international law and is a must grave violation of Germany's) sovereign rights. It further remarks that permissible measures against Germany under the Treaty can only be taken by common action by the Alles. It solemnly protests against viclence against a defenceless nation, saying that Germany cannot oppose this display of force, but she not willing to submit to a breach of the Treaty or eren. as 'jequested, to co-operate in the carrying out of the French; alms. Responsibility for the consequences rests solely on the in- vading Powers.
Paris, Jan. 13.
A semi-official French statement says the Germans of the Ruhr are adopting a pdity of passive resistance Ocials are abstaining from all negotiations with the French regarding compensation and the restoration of industrial machinery, also endeavouring to evadel the forthcoming egotiations under the Treaty for exchange of pro- ducts between Asace. Lorraine and Germany. If the Germans per- sist in this attitude, adds the statement, the Allies will have no choicef bat to take reprsal measures, and the first will probabis be that extension of the rccupation zone in Ruhr.
It is reported from Essen that the French troops have occupied Gelsenkirchen.
At a meeting of French experts and engineers and German local authorities and industrialists in the Town Hall, the District Governor declared that the local authorities would not collaborate in the carry- ing out of prescriptions regarding the distribution of coal, The Conference decided that no more coal orders should be accepted from Berlin and that only the orders of the local authorities would be executed.
Essen, Jan. 13. Germary has agreed to resume the coal deliveries under tentative arrangements controlled by the Franco-German Commission.
Cologne, Jan. 13.
The Inter-Aied Rhineland Commission for the first time has waived the Anti-Strike Ordinance and decided not to prohibit the} half hour strike on the 15th Jan., which is a token of mourning for French action.

Essen, Jan. 13.
Deliveries of coal for the Entente ceased yesterday. Nothing is ofcially known regarding French intentions in the event of the syndicate declining to work the mines, but an authoritative quarter, states that the French will take over and operate the mines them- salves.
Paris, Jan, 13.
The Reparations Commission has postponed the date of the next German Reparations. payment to 31st January as a provizional measure. N. vote was taken by the Reparations Commission on the question of extension of the moratorium, but Sir John Bradbury withheld approval of the decision to notify the German War Burden Commission that the moratorium has been provisionally extended to Sat January. Sir John Bradbury declared that this was contrary to the British policy of a long moratorium. Sir John Bradbury also. dissented from the decision to supply information to the new Franco- Belgian-italian Control Commission in the Ruhr, of which the Ke- parations Commission has no official cognisance.
The admission of French journalists to the Reichstag has been suspended.
The Houre remained standing to hear the speech of Dr. Cuno, vehemently denouncing the French most costly military action, which was ostensibly undertaken for a small arrears of deliveries of coal and telegraph poles. He expressed the opinion, however, that it was not a question of Reparations but of a four hundred years old policy of destroying the German Empire, a policy of brutal expansion lothed as formerly in the garb of right. except that the old watch word "reunion" had become "reparation." Dare we expect the com pelling force of economic development sooner or later to lead to a change before the conflagration starts, which will menace not only Germany but Europe?"
Dr. Cuno urged the necessity of the most vigilant prudence and self-restraint and the co-operation of the people and the State in order to avoid disastrous consequences for the community. He con- cluded, "Injustice, misery and deprivation are ours to-day; freedom and life is our aim and unity our path."
The Reichstag passed a vote of confidence in the Government by 283 votes to 12.
Paris, Jan. 13.
A message from Duesseldorf says the line of occupation runs from Sterkrade to Bottrop, the Herne River, Altenessen, Kotterburg, Kray, Steele. Rellinghausen, Werden and Kattwig. The foregoing! constitutes the objective of the French who at present do not con- template occupying Ecchum.

Berlin, Jan. 13.
A Vorberte messages from Essen states that the French fing hoisted by the occupying troops at Steele was torn down by the crowd. The Burgemaster apologised to the French commander. Washington, Jan. 13.-
It is stated at the White House that the Government sees no road by which its desire to be helpful in the Reparations problem can be advanced.

London, Jan, 14. Ronald McNeill, speaking at Canterbury, referred to our friendly dispute with France as the best means for making Germany fulfil her obligations. Mr. Eonar Law was not more disposed than M. Pingare to trus: German promises. He recommended that the German newspapers remember the wanton wrecking of Northern France, also the way they exacted the indemnity of 1871, before talking of injustice and brutality in the present French procedure. He declared that if it were possible for France to recover by the same method a tenth of what Germany owes her, there would be no injustice in doing so. He added that the Anglo-French disagree- ment simply related to the best method of obtaining the common end, and it would give us no gratification to see ourselves proved right in the conviction that the French policy will defeat its own purpose.
