TAGEBLATT FAVORS IT. Cologne Gazette Fears the President Is Playing Into Hands of Lloyd George. BERLIN, Deo. 2% (via Lonion). —The Berlin preae receives Presi- dent Wilson's note ‘> the belligeren: powers with varying views, scarcely | any two papers looking alike at the proposition. The views range {ror the enthusiastic welcome accorded plan by the Tagebiatt to the un- expectediy cynical quasi-acquiescence of the Voesische Zeitung, with the middle grounds represented by tho Lokal Anseiger, which prefers to await the answer of the Entente Powers to the German note before de- ciding for or against. George Bernhard, in the Vossische Zeitung, views President Wrison proposal as actuated purely from American. selfish motives. America, he says, finds itself in the position of having passed the heyday point in ‘ financial operations with the Entente and now wants pesce and the o- operation of England in preparing for what it alludes to as the inevitable Japanese trouble. Herr Bernhard refers to Secretary Lansing’s statement regarding Amer. ies being drawn to the verge of war ‘@ distinct tip to Germany, yet he convinced that America desires to avoid such a confiict, primarily, for selfish reasons. “President Wilson's step we wel- come” are the words with which Theo- dore Wolff opens his comment In the ‘Tageblatt. He adds that quite reo wardiess of feeling for or against President Wileon or the desires in some circles for war with America, Ro responsible politician capable of thinking has the right to reject peace proposals because they come from Washington. Herr Wolff points out that President Wilson undoubtedly has many gources of information as te the feeling toward peace in vari- o@6 Warring countries and therefore is pot guided by parilamentary speeches delivered for home and enemy consumption. In ending his article Herr Wolff declares that, whatever may be the outoome of the proposition, the dis- cussion of peace has in any event begun and cannot be hushed. “Just because President Wilson's peace move is such @ eurprice,” says the Cologne Gazette, “it is more nec- eesary to be reserved in judging it. It ie not very clear what the nature of Dr. Wilson's proposal is. If Dr. Wilson tries to bring about the pub- Meation of the conditions upon which the two groupe are inclined to make peace he will aggtavate instead of smoothing over the contrasts and only prolong tht war, He would only be wanting what Lioyd George de- manded in his speech, and would be Playing the British game.” The Cologne Volks Zeitung says: “President Wilson's remark that his etep is not prompted by the peace of- fer of the Central Powers shows that he has for @ long time contemplated mediation for peact. What this peace would be we can easily imagine after Dr. Wilson's attitude toward this war, We must decline from the out- eet the participation of a neutral state, namely, the Unitéd States, as a responsible party in the proposed confertace.” The Neuve Freie Press of Vienna, says President Wilson's note will have the effect at any rato of kcep- ing the question of peace for some time in ¢he foreground. It adds that the entente will be obliged to dis- cuss @ reasonable basis on which to end the war and that the desire for peace tn the ite countries will Maks with satisfaction that A: Hungary and her allies considered the same moment opportune to pre- we the way for peace Regotiations.

LONDON, Dec. 23.—Analyzing the criticisms of President Wilson's note to the belligerent nations, the Man- chester Guardian in a remarkable a column long, which Is unique because it endeavors to in- terpret the President's viewpoint, sounds a word of caution to-day against hasty and ill-considered ac- tion in making a reply. ‘The Guardian believes that the note if coolly considered and wisely an- ewered, can only help the allies’ cause and throw into atronger relief the moral weakness of the German position. The newspaper emphasizes & point which it say ems to have been forgotten in this country, that the identical note was addressed to all delligerents, and says that a care- ful reading of the passage in which President Wilson suggests that both sides are fighting for the same end reveals that the President said that this is what the belligerents tell their own countrymen. The Manchester Guardian then sounds a warning against the “allies being betrayed into playing Ger- many’s game because If we put our- selves wrong with America we do play Germany's game.” The news- paper then adds this advice: “Let us avoid tmputing motives, take the President's note at its face value @ perfectly sincere docu- ment meaning simply what it says, Tho newspaper says when it is r mombered that Germany has made no definite proposal it must also be borne in mind that President Wilson does not invite the allies to do any- thing Germany already has done, and that the note equally ts an invita- tion for Germany to do something ehe may not find easy, “If we resent every suggestion of peace and are bent on seeing Ger- man mischief-making in every-men- tion of an end to the war we shall quite gratuitously be placing our- selves in an unenviable light.” The London press generally took a new tack to-day in figuring out why President Wilson sent his peace note. The first outburst of indignation having died down somewhat, editorials to-day began speculating on tho belief that the American President has “something up his sleev: Some had the idea that the note was based on special information which Wilson had obtained as to the exact terms which Germany {s will- ing to mako and that the note w not an indication of an anti-Ally sentiment. The two statements by the Ameri- can Secretary of State Lansing were held thoroughly bewildering—but the editorials agreed they were a side issue. All newspapers expressed the hope that the President's hint that peace may be “just around the corner” might have been based on secret information from Germany. An Amsterdam despatch to the Post mentions a rumor there that Germany sent a note to the neutral powers announcing that a ruthless submarine war would be Inaugurated unless peace was concluded and an- other rumor that Germany planned to clone the Mediterranean by means of submarines. The Pall Mall Gazette came out frankly to-day with the suggestion that the President withdraw the Lote. “Whether it was simple oversight, or a case of over-subtiety,” the edi- torial asserted, “the President grave- ly blundered, and unless the vlunder is revoked it will bear evil and irrey- ocable fruit.” DOBRUDJA BATTLE IN RAIN AND SLUSH Germans Outnumber Russian De- fenders and Force Them Back, Says London.

CLEMENCEAU OBJECTS. “Inspired by High Sentiments, but Inopportune,” Is View Taken by the Paris Matin. PARIS, Dec, 28.—President Wilson'e note and the statements of Secretary Lansing continue to be the sen: of the day and take precedence of everything else in the morning pa- pers. The President's action by no moans meets with favor among the commentators, Who only vary in the manner of expressing their opinion. The principal reproach is in the words of Stephen Pichon who,, writ- ing in the Petit Journal, says: “The note makes no distinction be- tween the states who provoked the war and those upon whom it wi forced, Tho belligerents, whoever they are, seo themselves treated in the same manner by President Wil- son. He does not remember either the violation of Belgian neutrality, the crimes of the submarine warfare or any of the monstrous acts which revolted the conscience of his com- Patriots and that of the civilized world. Germany—her victims, Bel- gians, Serbians or Frenoh—it is all the same. merica can appreciate this sin- gular conception as she p ses. We should be lacking in the first of our duties in not holding it up as an out~ rage to our bonor and our dignity.” Georges Clemenceau, former Pre- mier, in his newspaper L'Homme En- ohaine, says: “The moral side of the war has escaped President Wilson. He puts on the same footing all of the belligerents without asking for what reason each of them is fighting. It would seem almost blasphemous to hear it eald that ‘the objects seem the same on both sides.’ ” Lincoln's answer to the French and British offers to mediate between North and South in 1863 is freely quoted and analog! are drawn be- tween the situations then and now, “What citizen of the United States would blame us if we answered Wil- son as Lincoln answered the media- tors then?” asks the Echo de Theo Matin says: “The American note ts certainly inspired by high sentiments. It is doubtful whether it is opportune. It comes at a moment when it is to every interest of Ger- many to stop or slacken hostiliti It comes after the four ringing dec- larations of Sonnino, Pokrovsky, Briand and Lloyd George.” The opinion of the Petit Parisien is expressed as fellows: “One may ask with President Wilson himself whether the moment for such intervention wos chosen opportunely. The speeches which were delivered this week by Ministers of the Quadruple Entente have defined the views of the Allies upon the problems of peace and war.” The Journal and the Gaulois think President Wilson was influenced by fear of intensification of submarine warfare and considcration of the con- sequences of total interruption of sea traffic if the Germans should carry out the project they are reported to have decided on and send 125 subma- rines to American waters. The Presi- — may also have been influenced, papers my, by the increase in the wont of living in the United States. “Let us consider the President's note coolly,” save the Gaulois, “and send him answer courteous but firm, be- fitting our dignity and our desire to safeguard the future.” ee PARIS REPORTS REPULSE OF GERMANS AT AUBERIVE Considerable Artillery Activity in Region of Hardaumont and Near Chambrettes.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 23.—Contra- dicting Germany's contentions that the steamer Arabla was a British transport, the British government to- day informed the State Department the Arabla was not in Admiralty ser- vice when she was torpedoed nor had she ever been in such service, Great Britan did say, the Arabla carried some goverment passengers “booked as ordinary packet passen- gers at the expense of the Gevern- ment.’ The State Department had awaited this word before deciding its course toward Germany in pending sub- marine matters. Secretary Lansing indicated he is undecided about passing along the “incomplete information to Ger- many, and it is thought he will wait for the figures of Great Britain be- fore deciding upon action, German asserted that the Arabia was in the service of the British Government, filled with coolle la- borers, with no women or children | visible on board, painted like a trans- port and traversing | the ransport lane, but has offered repac- Rif che shall be whown to have been Wrong in that opinion.

MAYOR — IS ASSAILED. | |Dowling, in Sarcastic Speech, | Denies the Charge of * Playing Politics. The Tammany faction of the Board of Aldermen completely failed this afternoon in its effort to override the veto of Mayor Mitchel on 1917 budget cuts amounting to $120,420, When the Board of Estimate, which the Mayor is Chairman, p the 1917 budget of $211,1 Aldermen cut $120,420 in fe 8, new positions and positions they considered useless, Sixty of the 78 votes in the Board of Aldermen are necessary to over ride the Mayor's veto. To-day, on the question of salary increases amoun’ ing to $38,320, the Tammanyites could got only 49 votes. The Fustonists, who supported the Mayor, cast 20 votes. On the propositions for thirteen new post- | tions costing the taxpayers $44,070 and |the attempted abolition of sixteen | “useless” positions costing $37,150 the |Tammanyites got but 48 votes out of the necessary 60, The Fusionists cast 20 votes. | This means that the $211,115,016.82 budget for 1917 stands as the Board |of Estimate passed it. In @ speech bristling with sarcasm and ridicule, Aldermanic President Dowling attacked the Mayor for vetoing the budget cuts “If we had been playing politics,” |declared Alderman Dowling, ‘“wej| jcould have cut $3,000,000 out of the! | 1917 budget made up by the Board of | Estimate and then told the Mayor to put the amount back. “I desire to serve notice on Mayor Mitchel, and I do not think he ever has reason to doubt my word, that I was not approached elther by any member of the board or of any polit- ical body whatsoever while the Alder- men were considering the budget. In fact, the Finance Committee of the board took up the budget and an- alyzed it, item by item, during my absence.” Mr. Dowling then proceeded to flay many of the methods of the Mitchel administration. First of all, he cited an instance of the “riotous use” of the word efficiency. “During an absence of Mayor Mit- chel from the city," he said, “I was acting Mayor and had to present street cleaning medals in Union Square, One of the White Wings who came before me for decoration was a resident of my district. This man, well known to me, was having a badge of honor pinned on him for eMciency. As I affixed the medal I leaned over and asked him how many days a week he was called upon to work and he replied “three.” That means that the great City of New York shows {ts appreciation of n efficient man by handing him 7.50 a week and a med ———anree DENIES TORREON HAS BEEN | CAPTURED BY VILLA | Military Commander at Chihuahua City So Replies to Carranza Consul at El Paso, | | EL PASO, Tex., Dec. 23.—A mea- sage from Gen, Francisco Murguia, | military commander at Chihuabua City, denying that Torreon has been leaptured by Villa's forces, was re- ceived to-day by Eduardo Soriano Bravo, Carranza Consul here.
