FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 30, 1917. BISMARCK DAILY. TRIBUNE CEAMAN PRIME M INISTER [5 READY 10 RECEIVE EMBASSY FORM Tht BOLSHEVIK REDS Principles Upon Which Opening of Negotiations May Be Based Entirely Tenable HERTLING IN ADDRESS TO THE REICHSTAG Dwells on German Internal Situa- tion—Cautiously Refers to In- tended Reforms SWEDEN AS MEDIATOR London, Nov. 30.——A Copen- hagen dispatch to the Exchange Telegraph company says that the Swedish legation at Petrograd has agreed, at Leon Trotzky’s request, to act as mediator between Russia and Germany and has already sent to the Berlin foreign office a note proffering a truce and peace negotations. London, Nov. 30.—On the Cam- brai battle front British troops made a slight advance today west of Bourlon wood, according to the official statement tonight from Field Marshal Haig. READY FOR PEACE Berlin, via London, Nov. 30.—Count Geo. F. Von Hertling, the Imperial German Chancellor, told the Reichstag today that he was ready to enter into} peace negotations as soon as the Rus+ sian government sends representatives having full powers to Berlin. “I hope and wish,” he said, “that these efforts will soon take definite shape and bring us peace.” * Respecting Poland, Lithuania and Courland, Count Von Hertling said: =“We respect that right of self-de-; termination of their peoples. We ex- pect they will give themselves a con- stitutional form of government corres- ponding to their conditions.” SAYS CROWN GIVES REFORMS Count Von Hertling claimed the in- itiative for Prussian reforms proceed- ed from the crown, and after alluding to some new bills of reform affecting the workmen’s unions, referred to the cengorship and promised to do what was possible to allow a free expression of opinion. s SUBMARINE WARFARE ' As to, the, submarine campaign, ‘the chancellor »said: 4 i . “Submarine warfare against mer- chant ships exercises systematically its powerful: and inevitable effect. It was: and is the only thorough going means for carrying on against the superior power of our adversaries the economic war forced upon us. ‘It di- troops netted the enemy some prison- ers and two machine guns, but an- other hostile attack on Belgian posi- tions in the neighborhood of Asch- hoop was beaten off after a bitter fight. Germans Beaten Back. After violent preparations the Ger- mans in great strength undertook a raid north of Carnillet in the Cham- pagne, but were beaten back by the French, who inflicted heavy losses on them. Two other German attacks, one near Bethincourt, on the left bank of the Meuse, and the other west of Vaux Les Damloup, on the right bank, also were repulsed, while a French raid on the German lines in the Ar- gonne, west of the Aire, was carried out successfully and resulted in the taking of some German prisoners, Violent Bombardment. Along the entire Italian front the batteries of the contending armies are maintaining a violent bombard- ment, but no infantry actions of im- portance are reported from this the- ater of the world war. The German war office reports that Italian attacks against the Austro-German mountain positicns or tke west bank of the Brenta and on Monte Tomba failed. ‘News from Petrograd is meager, and no exact detai!s of conditions in Rus- sia are available. Germany Seeks Peace. Count ven Hertling, the imperial German chane: , has informed the reichstag that Germany is ready to enter into peace negotiations with Russia as soon as representatives fully accredited by the government of that country arrive in Berlin. .The chan- cellor asserted that Germany would| respect the rights of Poland, Lithuania and Courland to self-government. All but two of the crew of a Ger- man torpedo boat destroyer were lost when the warship struck.a mine off the coast of Holland and sank. The destroyer was a part of the Zeebrugge flotilla.

All observations give’ us unmistakable proof. that the submafine ‘war against merchant, ships, will reach the aim in- tended for it.” § CONFERENCE BEGINS The all important inter-allied con- ference has begun its sessions in Paris. Fifteen nations were repre- sented ‘at the first meeting, and much is expected from’ the discussions and decisions of this conference in the way of co-operation in carrying on the war against the central powers and the pooling of the great resources of the allies. Important meetings of the supreme war council, composed of representa- tives of the United States, Great Bri- tain, France and Italy, will be held shortly, at which the military- oper- ations on the entire western front will come under consideration. Little Change on Fronts. There has been little change on the various war fronts, according to the meager information coming out of the capitals of the belligerent countries in the last 24 hours, but the British are pounding hard along their front in the Cambrai sector. The town of Cam- brai is now directly under fire of the itish cannon. Pine battling of the infantry for the possession of Fontaine Notre Dame and between Moeuvres and Bourlon has ceased temporarily, but at times the artillery fire is of great interisity in these regions.

Give Dr. King’s New Getit it at your druggists TASK OF COORDINATION TO BE UNDERTAKEN HERE Physicians and surgeons, members of the national medical advisory board of thé nations! counci! of defense, will be assigned to every district in North Dakota to offer free medical advice to registrants called in the second draft. This decision was arrived at at a session of the North Dakota medi- cal advisory board of the! national de. fense council held in Bismarck yester. day at the call of Dr. V. H. Stickney of Dickinson, chairman for North Da- kota of the national advisory commit- tee. Among the prominent medicos in at- tendance were Senator H. J. Rowe of Casselton, secretary of the North Da- kota medical council, and Dr. Paul Sorkness of Fargo. Medical advisory boards will be established in Bis- marck, Dickinson, Williston, Minot, Devils Lake, Grand Forks, Fargo, Wahpeton, Valley City, Jamestown, New Rockford and perhaps other cen- ters which will conveniently serve the registrants in their territories. For Co-Ordination. Dorr H. Carroll of Minot, chairman of the North Dakota national defense council, advised following his. confer- ence with Governor Frazier here this week that owing to the absence of Sec- retary F. O. Helstrom another confer- ence would be necessary before any- thing definite could be given out on the defense council's plan to co-ordin- ate all future liberty loan, Y. M. C. A., Red Cross and similar drives in North Dakota. The plan seems to be the appoint- ment of permanent committees in ev- ery county in the state, which will handle these campaigns under the di- rection of a central committee which will assume the task of apportioning the amounts to be raised in the vari- ous counties. All money raising schemes which do not appear material to the successful prosecution of the war will be eliminated through this general committee, to whose secre- tary each project must be submitted, and without, whose endorsement no financing will be undertaken. COST OF LUMBER __ FOR GOVERNMENT PURPOSES FIXEL Chicago, Nov. 29.—Representative lumbermen from all parts of the coun- try will meet here tomorrow to dis- cuss and prepare statements on the cost of production, which they will present to United States officials in Washington, December 4.

CABINET MEMBER - ROUGHED Sherbrooke, Quebec, Nov. 30.—A riotous, crowd tonight broke up a meeting here at which Minister of Justice Doherty and Hon. C. C. Ral- lantyne attempted to speak. The front of the theatre in which the meeting was heing held was wrecked and there were many fist fights among persons in the audience. Mr. Doherty is a member of the cabinet of Sir Robert Borden. The disturbance was the most seri- ous that has yet occurred in the prov- ince of Quebec in the present general election campaign. The rioters were held back only ‘by the use of a fire hose at the stage door, when they attempted to storm the stage where the speakers were. NO.

But there was a martial note in the festivities which has been lacking in other years for thousands of soldiers, sailors and marines were honored guests in the homes, clubs, hotels and restaurants. i Reinhold A.

The insurance company, which had insured farmers’ crops to the amount of $7 an acre, had been hard hit by the drought; and was un- able to pay losses until. the certifi- cates of deposit could be paid. Banks had taken premium notes given to the company by farmers, and has issued the certificates of deposit for them. Bank Examiner Waters now notifies’ the banks, under instructions from Attorney General Wm. Langer, that certificates of deposit: when issued without restrictions as to negotiabil- ity, and made payable to the order of the payee, are absolutely negotiable instruments, and must. be paid .on presentation.

FOR SOMEBODY SAID ‘KAISER’ TO THIS DOG In fact, so great was the desire to honor the nation’s fighting men that there were not enough of them to go around and many persons who had extended invitations had to do with- out Khaki or blue clad guests. It was essentially a soldiers’ holi- day, and’ estimates placed the number ofthem’ entertained in the city ‘at 30,000. The day began with services in the churches, where heartfelt pray- ers for the success and honor of Amer- ica’s arms were offered by hundreds of pastors, priests and rabbis. Then followed the feasting and the enter- tainmenis. Madison Square Garden. Probably the biggest event of the day was the dinner and entertainment given at Madison Square garden by the patriotic service league. A uni- form was all the admission ticket re- quired, and 6,000 soldiers and sailors received cordial welcome. Scores of famous actors and musicians provided continuous program from = 3:30 o’clock in the afternoon until mid- night. Adolph Lorber turned his big Broad- way restaurant over to the soldiers and entertained 1,300 men whom he brought from Camp Mills on a special train. His own daughters served cigars and cigarets. An army of cheerful waiters refused to accept tips. Be- sides serving the dinners, Mr. Lorber chartered a squadron of sightseeing automobiles in which his guests were , taken for trips around the city. Mothers 500 Boys. Mrs. James B. Regan, wife of the proprietor of the Knickerbocker hotel “mothered” 500 boys from the New York navy yard. Stage stars enter- tained them while they dined. Frank H. Maynard was host to 250 soldiers and sailors at the Waldorf, and there was not a hotel in the city which did not have its quota of soldiers for guests. All the club houses in New York were turned over to the military men, too. Bars were ordered closed and PLY? WEL DOT BE Drive Them Off no liquor was dispensed, even to the members, because of the regulation which forbids soldiers and sailors in uniform to drink intoxicants. Blessed by Cardinal. Greetings and blessings were’ ex- tended by Cardinal Farley to 150 sol- diers and sailors at a feast given them by the National Catholic Service club. At National Service dlub No. 1 more than 200 men were guests of the Har- vard club, while National Service club No. 2 entertained 3,500 men, 200 at its rooms and the remainder through invitations from individuals. The Ro- tary club had 300 guests. 3 ete Charles E. Hughes and other prom-! Nothing From Festivities Along inent men welcomed 200 soldiers to! PHONE 17 lishmen and a number of American residents of London.. The quaint old church, which is one of the landmarks of the city, was decorated with Amer- ican and British flags. The service included prayers for King . George, Presideut Wilson, Great Pritain and the United States, and the singing of “Hail Columbia,” “The Star Spangled {Benner,” “The Battle Hymn of the | Republic,” “God Save the King,” and “My Country ’Tis of Thee.” The Rev. W. F. Cobb, the rector, in his sermon, spoke of President Wil- son as a worthy successor to Wash- ington and Lincoln. DISAPPOINTED HOSTS Chicago, Nov. 30.—Fifteen hundre: ' ; the Union League club. All the men were from Camp Upton, and _ they marched into the dining room singing “Tipperary.” Members of the New York democratic club entertained 400 soldiers at their homes. Every soldier on guard in the zone along the water front barred to enemy aliens was given a Thanksgiving din- ner which was served to them in re- lays. : Poor Not Neglected. While the men of democracy’s army were the ones the city delighted most to‘honor, the poor were not forgotten, St. Andrew’s society served more than 2,000. A line two -blocks long formed in Eighth street early and all who came were made welcome. The Third street Y. M. C. A. near the Bowery, served turkey dinners at five cents each to 2,000 heedy men. The Bow- ery. mission had as its guests more than 800 men it had rescued {rom the slums.
