PEACE PROVE FUTILE
Berlin, Wit The Hague, March a.
President Wilson's newest effort to
bring about a cessation of hOstilities
in Europe has met with failure. Col.
E. H. House of New York, presidents
personal emissary, will leave Berlin
for Switzerland tomorrow, convinced
that peace negotiations at present
are out Of question.
Col. House conferred with Sir Ed
ward Grey, England's foreign secre-

Rene ViViani, and finally with Herr
Won JagOw, secretary of German for
eign affairs. With all possible cOur-
tesy and appreciation of President
Wilson's kindly interest, Col. House
has been told that there is no posi-
bility of a peace compromise at this
time.
German people were never more
confident of successful outcome of

showed that total of $2,355, OOO,OOO
was subscribed.

GAS COMPANY WARNED
BY UTILITIES COMMISSION

Drastic steps are to be taken by the
public utilities commission to prevent
the manufacture and sale in the Dis
trict Of gas containing hydrogen sui
phide. The commission has brought to
the attention of the Washington Gas
Light Company the fact that during
December hydrogen sulphide was
found in gas furnished by the COM
pany on thirteen days at the central
testing station of the commission, and
on Ave days each at the southeast and
northwest stations. Daily tests of gas
furnished by the company are now
being made, and reappearance of hy-
drogen sulphide may result in the
levying of heavy flnes by the commits
sion against the lighting concern, it Is
stated.
While the District regulations pre-
scribing the quality of gas to be fur
nished contain no requirements as to
Illuminating power. the commission has
made tests of the candlepower of gas
manufactured by the Washington Gas
Light Company and discovered. so 1t
has informed the company, that during
December the candlepower ran from
three to 9 points under the old stand
ard of twenty-five. If such a low rat
ing is maintained the commission may
adopt a standard for Illuminating
power.

DEMOCRATS CAUCUS
ON SENATE PROGRAM
Fear That Unless Drastic Means Are
Adopted Extra Session Will
Be Necessary.

Fearing that unless drastic means
are adopted to hurry legislation IN the
Senate, the legislative program OF the
administration will fail utterly and
that even the annual appropriation
bills will not be complete by March
next, the date of the adjournment Oh
Congress, the democratic members OF
the Senate met in caucus this afternoon
to determine on a line of action. Ine
meeting of the caucus was preceoed Dy
a meeting of the democratic steering
committee of the Senate.
The steering committee, 1t was SAID.
decided to leave the whole matter up
to the caucus. For some time ~ mas

tion conservation bills which exists IN

get any of these measures enacted INTO
law and complete the appropriation
bills by March 4.
Program Up to Caucus.
The caucus must determine this aft
ernoon whether it will go ahead with
the idea that only the appropriation
hills are to be disposed OF before
March 4.
If such conclusion is reached, the
republicans probably would JON IN
putting the appropriation bills through
by that time. But if the caucus his, oer e.
termines to push the shipping Dill, or
any of the other administration piiis,
sidetracking the appropriation Sn ,oth o,ils
temporarily, there seems 10 De notn-
ing that will prevent the necessity
arising for an extra session OF Con
gress this spring to complete the ap-
preparation bills. At present there re-
main thirteen of the appropriation niiis
to be disposed of in the Senate, with
out mentioning the District bill,
which is before the Senate today.
It was suggested today that the demo-
cratic caucus might determine to bring
the shipping bill before the Senate con-
stantly for the next two weeks in an
effort to pass it. 1t was said that only
by holding continuous sessions. all day
and all night, could it be hoped to get
this bill disposed of finally. if such a pro-
gram was adopted. Night sessions have
been tried several times already this ses-
sion, but it has been impossible to get
quorum to attend.
Talk of an extra session in the last
few days has grown stronger and stronger.
