CHICAGO. June 19-The Twentieth
Century limited flying over clear track

All along the line the big miIlion-dol-

1:4s. the monster thing of life whistled.
All along the line the big steel engine
was held back by It's engineer from out

had been set for It. At Elkhart, though
four minutes had already been list in

forced to loaf two minutes longer be-

BIRMINGHAM, England, June 1a-
Following up the report teIegraphed by
the Paris correspondent Of the London
Daily Mail to the effect that the Kaiser
has been sounding the powers on the
subject of calling an, international con-
ference to settle the Far Eastern war,
the Post today makes the statement
that q draft of what Germany considers
to be fair terms for settling the war is
being circulated among the powers.
These terms have been suggested as
being likely TO insure q durable peace
in the Far East- The document was
prepared by Prince von Buelow, who has
had a number OF conferences recently
with The Russian ambassador 10 Ber-
lin
The terms as outlined provide, for the
payment of an indemnity OF G5,0D, ,001
to Japan in three annual installments,
the return of all the interned Russian
war vessels to Russia, the recognition
OF a japanese protectorate over Korea,
and the return OF Manchuria to China
Russia Is TO be allowed 10 retain contros
of the Mauchurian and Eastern China
Railways
Proposed Terms Moderate.
These terms are so moderate and the
fact that they nave Deen issued from the
German court, to which II is known the
Car has been inclined TO look for adj
vice and support in determining TO con-
tinue the war, at former periods when
the agitation in favor of peace became
pronounced, has strengthened the be-
lief of Japan that Russia does not real
ly desire peace at this time, but is only
negotiating to gain time.
The Tokyo government, the Post
claims, has been made all the more de-
ternined in its resolve to insist that
there shall be no armistice pending the
meeting of the peace plenipotentiaries
since this draft OF peace terms has
been issued.
Adoption of Plan Improbable.
The Paris dispatch to the Daily Maii
reads:
I'm diplomatic circles it is known that
the Kaiser has been sounding the pow
ers with the object of convening an in
ternational conference 10 settle affairs
in the Far East, but it is not probable
that this plan viii be carried out un-
less the Russian army is defeated IN
the battle which is now imminent"

An agreement will be signed whereby
Prince Carl, third son of King Oscar,

Arrangements Due TO Christian.
The news of this arrangement, II

friendly informal arbitration Of King
Christian of Denmark, who is greatly
grieved at the discord between the two
brother nations so closely connected by
ties of blood and language to his own.
King Oscar at first, 1t is said. stub

LONDON, June 19.-It is believed now
that the critical stage in the negotia-
tions between France and Germany has
passed and while all danger has not dis
appeared, there is little likelihood OF
war.
Behind this Tightening of the threaten
ing situation. is a well vouched for story
current in high diplomatic and official
circles that Germany found herself
faced by a coalition Of practically all
Europe. If she persisted in huril!ating
France or forcing war. Even the
powers in the Triple Alliance Informed
Won Buelow that they would not back
Germany in any move which threatened
the peace of Europe.
This, together with the evident prepa-
rations for war in France and England.
induced Germany to assume a less dc
tatorial attitude. If this Is kept up little
doubt is felt that the war clouds will
pass away
In order to permit Germany to save
her face an International council over
Morocco will probahl-- be agreed to by
France It's effect will simply be to
confirm French paramountcy in Mo-
rocco.
Views of Diplomat.
A well known member 6: the diplo-
matte corps in summing 1Ip the situa-
tion said:
There is no doubt that Europe was
on the verge of war. Germany evidently
thought the conditions favorable to as
sert her paramountcv in European at
fairs. and selected France as her VIC
tim. Deleasse. who is one of the most
profound statesmen in Europe, realized
ar,d v,a% fI1<a -;f, fyr,v, k,o<< he
could. When he was forced out, the
Kaiser was so surprised that he again
made a mistake. which was vital. He
showed his hand plainly that the
other continental nations saw that If
Germany should be permitted to crush
France they simply would all be yassals
to Berlin.
England Scented Danger.
England recognized the gravity of the
situation from She first and has been
a powerful factor in arousing the pow
ers 10 the full measure of the danger.
Rouvier might have been more plant
had his hand not ben strengthened by
assurances, not alone from England, but
frcm Spain. Italy. and the smaller pow
ers that France would have the back
ing of practically all Europe.
The German Kaiser is a wise man.
He saw that the situation was not so
favorable as he had thought for the
establishment of German paramountcy,
and he has receded with no small skill
and grace. He is simply biding his
time, however. No doubt is felt in Ber-
lin over Germany's supremacy, and the
time will not be long in coming when
it will be asserted and put TO the test
o. battle
German diplomacy will now be de-
voted TO calming the fears of the less
important powers and the making of a
European coalition impossible When
she has done this the time to act will
have come"
