EXPECT NO EARLY PEACE. 'Austro-Hungarians Are Laboring Un- der No Delusions. Budapest, March 30.—The Austro- Hungarian armies fighting in the Car- pathians have no delusions or hopes of an early peace, says General Kovess in an interview with the correspond- ent of Pestep Lloyd. “The forces received the news that we had made our enemies a peace of- fer ‘with gratitude,” says General Ko- vess. , “The soldiers sald they regard- ed the offer as a sign of a desire on the part of the young ruler of Austria- Hungary to realize by word and deed the longing, of his people for peage. At the same time, they were skeptical of the sucesse of the move from the first. “What made them skeptical? Con- tact with the enemy. Many psycho- logical reasons may be given in sup- port of the theory that the ememy in front of us does not deslre a speedy peace. #When uwh ‘came to our troops thatthe ‘Entente had . refused the peace offer, it was received with per- fect indifference, and caused no sur: prise. One cannot speak of disheart- enment of disappointment because the enemy is constantly attacking, and in the incessant struggle the feeling of peace cannot enter our men’s minds. ‘We shall fight on until victory is won. Although the snow in some places is three meters deep the troops are in- defatigable and show no sign of im- paired morale.” — ODOTH FOR LEATHER. . d Italian Shoe Dealing Public Badly Im- posed Upon!
