SAFETY DEMANDS IT.

Barre Times.
There is growing demand throughout
Vermont that stricter requirements be
imposed on drivers of motor vehicles;
that u.s. the candidate for an operators
license must give satisfactory evidence
of his ability to manipulate the machine,
as well as his mental temperament. The
increasing number of accidents is the
cause for the demand. Another act
should be to deal most severely with per-
sons who, while intoxicated, drive motor
vehicles. The simple question now asked
by the State before granting license,
"Do you use iquor?" is not enough
Moreover, when person is found guilty
of being intoxicated while running car
he should be dealt with severely not
merely called upon to lose his license
Safety on our highways demands it,

SCULLY GAINS TOTAL
OF 96 IN COUNTY
Leading Democrats Say That
Congressman Stands Re-
eIected-AWait Final Action
in Monmouth and Ocean.
srscfaI to the EVENING NEWS.


New Brunswick, Dec. 2S:-On the
face of final recount figures an
nounced after Supreme Court JUS
tlce Samuel Kalisch completed con-
sideration of referred ballots yester-
day afternoon, leading Democrats
about the county claim that Con-
gresham Thomas j. Scully stands
reelected. They say he will easily be
proven renamed when the final re-
turns from recounts of Monmouth
and Ocean counties are in. Congress-
man Scully's plurality in Middlesex
has grown from 395 to 491, showing
an increase of ninety-six votes for
him in this county alone. The final
count now stands, Scully 10,052, and
Carson 1861.
The original returns from Middle
sex county gave Scully 1876, and
Carson 9,761. After completion OF
the recount for the county and pass
ing of decision on all referred bal
lots, Scully lost 104 from his original
count, and Carson lost 200 from the
original figures, leaving a net gain OF
ninety-six votes for the congressman
This number of votes is more than
! enough to prove his reelection, un-
less the recounts in either Monmouth
| or Ocean counties, or both, should
favor Robert Carson.
There is every reason to believe that
Mr.. Scully will gain extensively by the
| recount in Monmouth and it is believ-
ed that the Ocean county recount will
also favor him. AS Mr.. Carson pulled
lout by plurality of but eleven votes
in the entire district, consisting OF the
three counties, it Is firmly believed
THAT Mr.. Scully will easily be proven
victor when all recount figures are
! in. Referred ballots of Ocean and
| Monmouth counties are yet to be con
sidered by Justice Kalisch.
The next question to be decided will
| be the legality of the recount. This
point is now before the court of err
| rors and appeals. the highest tribunal
| in the state. ---

TO FIGHT MOVE
FOR STRUCK JURY
Attorneys of Accused Excise
Commissioners to Fight Ap-
pIication to be Made Tomor-
row Before Judge Daily.

That efforts to fight the application
for the appointment of struck jury
to try James Mullen and Adolph c.
Koyen on a charge of malfeasance in
Office will be made by attorneys for
the men, was evident from various
rumors about the city this morning.
Thomas Brown, attorney for the ac-
cused excise commissioners, was In
Newark, and other parties, it is un-
'derstood, have been working on the
case.
Prosecutor Stricken served notice
las: week that he will make applica-
ton tomorrow to Judge Peter F.
Daily in the court of common pleas
for struck jury panel to try the
commissioners on the malfeasance
charge. The indictment is separate
from that charging conspiracy. the
prosecutor claims, and that therefore
the men are liable to trial on the
separate charges.
Thomas Brown left this city this
morning in connection with the cas-
and 1t is believed that he will confec
with Robert H. McCarter and other
interested attorneys in regard to
contesting the application tomorrow,
1t is known that others are work
ing on the case in an effort to have
the application refused.
The charge of conspiracy on which
the men are being held, together with
Louis Splitter, who acted as inter
mediary in the transaction, it Is
charged, will be held pending the re-
suit of the application for the striking
out of the Indictment against Splitter
and the application for the inclusion
of the excise commissioners in the
certiorari proceedings brought to free
Splitter from the charge.
The application to be made tomor-
row will be one of the vital points in
the case, as, If the application is
granted, the trial of the men, looked
forward to in this city for several
months since their arrest, will take
place as soon as the time limit placed
by law is UP.

Official Who Announced Re.
ceipt of Reply Said Nothing
Confidential Was Attached
to the RepIy-Note Appre-
ciates Presidents Intention.
Special to The EVENING NEWS

Washington, Dec. --Cermany'e
answer to President Wilson's peace
note reached the State Department
today. The official who announced
the receipt of the reply, said nothing
confidential was attached to the
answer. There had been suggestions
that Germany might give her terms
secretly in n accompanying message
TO Ambassador Gerard for transmits
sion here.
The fear that if present peace
negotiations fail, this nation then
must clear its slate on the submarine
question with Germany. grew apace
today. But President Wilson intends
10 push his peace work to the limit
10 avoid such possible subsequent
unpleasantness with Germany, il
possible.
Both President Wilson and Secre-
tary Lansing have decided to maintain
discreet silence on this topic There
is now no mistaking, officials believe,
that President Wilson's peace note to
the belligerents and the two subse-
quent explanations" by Secretary
Lansing, constituted warning against
any unbridled act of war that would
involve American lives or rights. Tho
fact that the Allies intend to state
their terms and aims is thought here
likely TO put Germany automatically
'fn hole" and hence make peace
even more improbable than it now
seems.
Whether there will be an extra ses>
sion of congress after March 4. de-
pends in large measure on the pros
poets of peace in Europe. Best infor-
nation today was that President VIII
son will desire to have a national Leg
islature in session, if there is any fn-
dication between now and the time OF
the close of the present congress, that
peace is possible.
If the administration determines on
a severance of relations with Germany
it is believed the President will ask the
advice of congress-presumab
through a special message-and thia
despite the fact that he could tal<e
such action without congressional
authorization.
Secretary Lansing this afternoon
gave out the text of the German au-
swer to President Wilson'S latest note.
/ 1t was practically Identical with the
! United Press version carried yester-
| day.

London, Dec. 2s-Dispatch of the
Allies reply to Germans peace propo-
sal is imminent Information today
indicated that the phraseology of the
identical note to be sent by all the en-
tente nations, had practically been
settled upon.
terms agreed upon by the Allies Ii
already en- route to Paris, where It
will be handed to the American am-
bassador with Frances note, for
transmission to Berlin, some time
within the next few days. From au-
thoritative sources the United Press
learned the Allied note will contain
a rejection of peace, based on GER
manys laid plans-a vigorously word
ed summary of the principles for
which the Allies contend they are
fighting to remove the menace of MIL
itarism of might over rigth of the rule
of force over international law.
Probably the Allies will make stu
clearer their aims and purposes by q
recital of the Grimes for which they
propose to hold Germany responsible.
The note, however, will not state spec
cifically the terms on which the ALI
lies will consent to talk peace. Such
terms must be inferentially drawn
from this statement of the aims and
purposes for which the Allies arc
fighting 1t will not consent to tbs
peace conference urged by Germany.
1t will not admit the timeliness of the
German plea nor of President Will
sons suggestions.
At the same time these Allied notes
go forward to the Central powers
through the diplomatic agencies OF
Spain. Switzerland and America. the
Allies will probably forward an iden-
teal note, answering President Will
sons peace suggestions.

Say Germany Weakens
,cfdI bU United Press Wire.

London. Dec. 2S:-Germany is
weakening. Her peace proffers come
from knowledge of that waning
strength and realization of the in
creased strength of her enemies, Car
Nicholas of Russia asserted in army
orders sent to all Russian fronts to-
day.
Germany is feeling that her COM
plete defeat is near, and near also is
the hour of retribution for all her
wrongdoings and violations of moral
law" the czar said.
"As in the time of her strength she
declared war, so now, feeling her
weakness she suddenly offers to enter
upon peace negotiations, desiring to
complete such negotiations before
her military talent is exhausted.
