TO act In case of a German invasion
whether to fight as citizens or re-
main passive--has prompted the
Daily Mail to reprint orders issued
more than a hundred years ago to
meet a similar contingency. The
author of the orders was the Duke Of
York. then mmander-in-chef. and
they were promulgated in 1901. when
Britons regarded the landing OF
troops by Napoleon as not only pos
sible but probable. AT any rate this
is to be inferred from the tone of
the dukes pronouncement.
Commenting on this ancient docu-
ment, the Daily Mail says it is "of
special relevance at the present time.
when the Germans are loudly pro
claiming their intention OF attempt
ing invasion OF this country" The
order was headed: information and

I'VE must naturally suppose. from
the host of foes that surround us

American Army to
EUacuGte Vera Cruz

Washington, D. G. Evacuation of
Vera Cruz was ordered Wednesday by
President Wilson. The United States
soldiers and marines, under General
Funston, who held Mexico's principal
seaport since it was seized by the fleet
April 81 last, will embark for home in
about two weeks, and shortly after
ward all Of the war fleet except a few
light draft vessels will be withdrawn.
The order for evacuation was form
ally announced at the White House
after a long cabinet meeting. 1t is
the concluding chapter Of the second
armed conflict between the United
States and Mexico, in which score Of
Americans lost their lives, nearly a
hundred wounded and upwards of 800
Mexicans were killed or wounded.
Specifically, the American forces
were withdrawn at the urgent appeal
of General Carranza, first chief of the
Constitutionalist army, who is in
charge Of the executive power in Mex
leo City. Through Paul Fuller, per-
sonal representative of President Will
son in Mexico, General Carranza set
forth that the presence of American
troops, instead Of being safeguard
against further revolution and peace
with the United States, constituted a
constant menace to friendly relations.
The Mexican chief. contended and
he was supported by Generals Villa
and Obregon that the Mexican people
would not understand the continued
presence of American troops on Mexi-
can soil and would be bound to cherish
resentment, no matter how well in
tentioned the American government
was or how acquiescent the Mexico
City administration itself might be.

Peace Must Be Permanent
Declares English Official

Washington, d. C.-Two develop
ments Of the highest Importance in
connection with preliminary peace ne
gotiations which have been in pro-
gress here have taken place.
First President Wilson received a
communication direct from the en-
peror Of Germany protesting against
the use by the allies of practices con-
trary to the laws of war, deploring the
shedding of blood and the destruction
of property through a war brought on
the German empire and intimating
desire for peace.
Second Sir Edward Grey, minister
for foreign affairs of Great Britain,
sent a reply to the informal peace
overtures made on behalf of the Ger
man ambassador to the United States,
through Oscar Straus, of New York,
and Secretary of State Bryan, to the
representatives here Of the allies gov
eminent.
The message Of the German emper-
or is under date of last Friday. On
the same day DR.. Van Bethmann-Holl-
veg, chancellor Of the empire, advised
Count Won Bernstorff, the German
ambassador here, that Germany had
not gone into the war for further ad-
ditions Of territory.
1t is apparent there ID a movement
on the part of Germany to obtain:
Peace on the basis of the present
war status quo.
To place on the allies responsibility
for the war
To relieve Germany of the charge
of wanton destruction Of life and prop
erty.
To explain that the wiping out Of
the city of Louvain was necessary, as
a result of the conduct of the Belglans
AS establishing the character Of the
warfare conducted by the allies, the
emperor refers to the use by them OF
dum-dum bullets, abundant proof a
which, according to his letter. exists
Sir Edwards reply was made to Am
bassador Page in the course of a con
ference. In accordance with the me
diatory role which he has assumed
Secretary Bryan will acquaint the Ger
man ambassador with the nature o
Sir Edwards response. This probabl,
will lead to another conference in th'
next few days.
It now will be for the German am
bassador to drop the informal charac
ter Of his presentations and il he real
| ly is acting in accordance with the IN
structions Of his government, to max
representation under which the pres
ident and Secretary Bryan can pre-
coed with their efforts to terminal
| the war.
The British communication Is sig
nificant in several aspects.

move for the restoration of peace
