 Russians Must Be Repulsed 'Therefore Baron Burian urged that the Russians must at all costs be re- pulsed and that Germany lnuEt send large endorsements to Hungary to prevent a cata strophe. In any case, he said, it was doubtful if it would be possible for them to resist the Russian and Servians and perhaps. also, the Roumanians nee

ceilent and, to some extent. justified by circumstances, but they declared that such a peace would be more ruinous to Germany than total defeat. Disarma- ment of Europe, they contended, would only mean that Great Britain would be able to tyrannize the whole world and Germany would have lost all chance for safeguarding her commercial. industrial ana economic interests.
 The other terms advanced by Baron Burian, namely, the status quo ante bellum, that Is to say, the restoring of Belgium and northern France but also the recovery by Germany of her colonies were, with the exception of the relin- quishment to France of French Alsace and of the Polish provinces to Poland. no absolute hindrance to peace.
 Negotiations Hopeless
 For the reasons set forth the German sta tesmen declared the negotiations for peace are hopeless and that therefore 1t would be madness to take any steps re- vcaling a disposition for peace on the part of Germany and Austria-Hungary, as this would only weaken their case.
 
 there was no other way than to reject all ideas of peace and to take all chances and all risks in continuing the war in the hope that something undreamed of might occur to save them Perhaps Il disagreement among the allies or some great victory might prove their salva- tion.
 ''The German agreed that it was neces- sary to dispatch endorsements to Hun- gary and promised to transfer troops up to the number of one million by spring. one and one-half million soldiers would be sent to France as last attempt to crush the allies and force peace.
 These are said to have been the main ponits of the negotiation between the German statesmen and Baron Burian, but of course, number of special ques- tions also were discussed and settled. '

 FRANCE GIVE VIEWS

Great Britain and France have Siven the American government their vi, ws on changes of registry in connection with various phases of the question that have developed since the outbreak of the war with the seizng of the Brin- dilla, and the purchase of the Dacia, which sailed today from Galveston on a test voyage, with a noncontraband cargo for neutral port. But ,n ac- cordance with diplomatic usage, the state department does not consider tha. Anything that may have, been said by foreign governments in special cases of transfer of flag. or on the general subject, applies to the purposes of the pending bill because the United States government would be a party to the transaction, whereas in all previous cases considered, private individuals alone have figured.
 It is believed in we'll informed quar- ters that an equal distribution of the American governments's purchases among British, French German and Austria would not meet with serious objections by the belligerents
