Trent and Trieste, acquisition of

aspiration. The concessions which
Austria is believed to be willing to
make are insignificant as compared
with the demands.
1t is regarded as probable that,
under pressure from Germany the
negotiations may be extended and
Austria may be induced to grant
larger concessions than she now is
willing to consider, but the belief is
generally held in responsible quarters
that the extreme Austrian conces-
sions would be insufficient to satisfy
Italy.
The demands of Italy as outlined
today, are set forth as follows:

CORPUS PRAYED FOR.

! William Shaffer, negro, now in III,
Logan county jail, held on charge o
burning the two cotton gins at Crcs
cent City, was denied his freedom on
q writ Of habeas corpus by the cri,ni
nal court Of appeals in verbal opin
ion announced from the bench ysster
day evening by Presiding Judge
Thomas H. Doyle.
The negro, who has figured promi-
nently in the famous case, based his
request for freedom on the ground
that two terms of court had passed
since his arrest and that he had not
been tried. He asserted that his fur.
ther detention in the Logan county
jail was without authority OF law. he
is held on two charges with his bond
fixed at $4,000 in each case.
In another opinion announced by
Judge Doyle, A, B. Wright, held in the
Grady county jail awaiting trial on
charge of first degree assault, was
denied his release. Wright instituted
labeas corpus proceedings before the
court on the ground that the evidence
vas not sufficient to convict him. All. !
hough the court denied him his re-
ease his bond was reduced from
10000 to $500. A 14-year-old girl
or whom Wright was appointedl
uardian is his accuser.

FORD QUITS PEACE ENTERPRISE
SAILS FOR AMERICA
London, Dec. 24.-Henry Ford has
abandoned his enterprise to bring
the boys out of the trenches by
Christmas" and sailed for America
today aboard the liner Bergensfjord,
according to dispatches from Ber-
gen.
The peace program will be carried
out by others who crossed from
America on the Oscar II. Nine. Ro-
Ska Schwimmer, Hungarian peace
advocate, has promised to interest
other leaders of the Woman's Inter
national Peace Congress in the
movement for a neutral congress.
Ford's secretary, Louis P. Lochner,
remained with the peace delegates,
who were due to reach Stockholm
this afternoon.
Dean S. S. Marquis of Detroit, a
close friend of Ford, is accompany
ing the peace leader on the return
trip to America, according to Ber-
gen dispatches. Ford decided to quit
the party principally because his
health has not been good since his
arrival in Norway.
Ford delegates enroute to Stock
holm are ignorant of the fact that
their leader and principal financial
hacker has turned his face toward
Amarica IF iC acc11Oond horo bOu
ever, that Ford will continue to pay
the expenses of the peace party and
that there will be no danger of any
of the delegates being stranded. The
fact that Lochner, who really man
aged the expedition, remained with
the party as Ford personal represen-
tative, apparently gives this assur-
ance.
