Amsterdam, Nov. 30.—The Austro- Hungerian government, according to a despatch from Vienna has sent an official reply accepting the Russian government's wireless proposal to en- ter into negotiations for an armistice and a general peace treaty. Secret Treaty. London, Nov. between Great Britain, France, Russia Bolsheviki government, according to Wednesday to the Daily Mail. It enter the war. Great Britain, France and Russia according to the published text, agree to Italy annex- ing the Trentino, the Southern Tyrol, Istria, Dalmatia, certain islands in the Grecian Archipelago and territory in Asla Minor and Africa. Article XV. bf the treaty is reported to read as follows: building new ones. ‘Count von Hertling expressed the wish that the territories formerly un- der Russian sway—Poland, Lithuania and Courland—could havq(fhe right of choosing their own govarnments and could obtain that political form which corresponded to their condi- tiongand culture.” He said that af- fairs in this direction were still in a state of uncertainty. _He referred to Germany and her ajlies in. which they'expressed’'them- selves on the foundation of the Papal note of last August, and said every ground had been removed for the ‘foolish argument” that the objec- tive of her enemles was to destroy German militarism which was de- stroying the peace of nations. He sal ; +*“It has been shown where neace destroving militarism can sought. The Italian minister, the be Son- 26, expressly waived the thought of gen- eral disarmament and Premier Clem- enceau goes so far as to expressly shut out Germany and Austria-Hun- gary from the peaceful community of nations of the future when right shall take the place of armed force.. Premier Llovd George has declared | distinctly that the aim of the war is the destruction of German commerce and that the war must be continued unti] this end is reached. Indeed, the lust of conquest falsely attributed to us, is now placed before the world through the publication of secret treaties by the Russian government. “Our war aim from the first dav was the defense of the Fatherland and the inviolability of its territory, free- dom and independence of its eco- nomic life. On that account we could greet jovfully the Pope’'s peace ap- peal. The spirit in which the answer to the Papal note was given still is alive today but—so much the enemy must admit—this answer signifieg no license for the criminal lengthening sof the war. Terrible Slaughter. “For the continuation of the ter- | rible slaughter, and the destruction of works of civilization and for the mad self-mangling of Europe the enemy | alone bears the responsibility and will | , also have to bear the consequences. | This applies especially to Sonnino (Baron Sonnino) Italian minister foreign affairs. If the Italian author- Ities forced into the war the unfor- tunate popuiation of a beautiful land bound to us by thousandfold mem- ortes had taken the hand of peace +'held out by the people, the frightful defeat of their armies with all its as- soclated consequences would not have taken place. May Italy’s friends ac- cept this as a warning and lend an ear at least to the voice of reason and humanity.” In conclusion the chancellor said that Germany’s watchwords must be “wait, endure, hold out.” The speech was received with applause from al- most the whole house, only the e treme right and extreme left not pa ticipating. of Russian Envoy London, Nov. 30.—The Russian en- voys sent to treat with the Germans, according te a Reuter despatch from Petrograd, have telegraphed the Bol- } ‘sheviki leaders, that the Russo-Ger- man plenipotentiaries will meet Sun- day noon at the crossing on the PDvinsk-Vilna railroad west of the vil-| lage of Kukharishky, between the op- pr‘mg miilitary- lines.. Thence they “France, Great Britain and Russia take upon themselves to support Italy in her disallowing representatives of the Holy See to take any diplomatic steps for the conclusion of peace or regarding matters pertaining to the present war.” intainsunGhsVGtete te Washington’s Views. ‘Washington, Nov. 30.—Austria’s de- cision to line up with Germany in opening peace negotiations with the Russian Bolsheviki may possibly h some effect on the administ disinclination toward a declaration of war on the Dual Monarchy, but the general impression in official circles here is that it will not bring about any development for the present at least. Secretary Baker has announced that as far as the men and ships are ready they will be combined and additional forces sent to join General Pershing. By this means guard divisions first to show themselves fitted for transporta- tion to the training camps in France will be first to go. It appears possible that the re-grouping of National Army divisions made necessary by the use of drafted men to fill ip depleted Na- tional Guard units, will be among the first National Army units to be sent over. Richard Anderson of Camp Dix Is home on a short furlough. Ensign Gunnar Suneson of the Na- val Reserve spent Thanksgiving at his home on Pleasant street. Edward F. Suprenant, U.

Nominal rallies.in shippings and motors were not especially hcipful, abstention of public interest and likewarm support from other sources constituting the chief drawback.

After the engineers had reached a point where they were ex- posed on the sky line it was neces- sary to work at night or on foggy days in order to avoid enemy obser- vation. There have been three bodies of ! Americans emploved in this region since about August 1.

The engineers love to hear the guns and to get as close to the firing line as military orders permit. Some of them had an unusual experience, much to their liking, on the first day of the offensive. The British called for vol- unteer stretcher bearers to. go . for- ward to the battlefleld and bring in wounded Britis and Germans. A large number of the engineers offered their services, which were accepted. They just had finished a hard day’s work on the railway, but they gladly undertook the new, arduous and dan- gerous task and labored through the night getting injured soldiers back to the dressing stations. They were highly complimented by the British for their efficiency in this line of ser- vice, which was rather a far-reaching one from building railroads. Italian Army Headquarters, Italy, Nov. 29, (By Associated Press)— The lessening of the intensity of the enemy dttacks along the northern front is regarded as forecasting the moving of activity to other points, either for massed attacks or in prep- aration of defensive positions capable of meeting the Italians, reinforced by the British and French, in a concerted advance. Aviators report that the enemy is feverishly busy along the Tagliamento river, where he is com- pelling the civilian population to as- sist in the construction of lines of de- fensive trenches and works on the eastern bank of the river té which he probably will fall back in case of a reverse alang the Pilave. The arrival of a number of Amer- ican officers is regarded as highly sat- isfactory and perhaps significant of coming events. Up to the present the American government has required military and naval observers to re- main comparatively inactive in Italy. ADDS ANOTHER STAR.
