NEW YORK, Nov 22.-The time is not yet ripe, in the opinion of Wm. L. Chambers. U. s.

Mir Chambers expressed his views in an address on "Ameri- can experience in the prevention or settlement of labor disputes" at the annual meeting of the Academy of Past Science here today.
 Tt is a subject of grave doubt in my mind," said MT Chambers. whether compulsory arbitration would accomplish the purpose of it's enact ment Neither am convinced that the compulsory features should be at. tached under the sanction of the law to any of the movements of media tion.

 German Peace
 Terms If Right
(Bv Lawrence Dean cIark)

LONDON. Nov. 22- Any peace proposals from Germany will receive the consideration they deserve" said the Earl of Derby, under-secretary of war. today to the Associated Press correspondent in response to an in- nuiry recarding the attitude of the entente allies.
 "The allies" continued Lord Derby, "cannot entertain an idea of peace which does not give them what they are fighting for. The allies have not modified their position in this re- spect."
 When asked his opinion as to the probable duration of the war in the light of recent events. Lord Derby said:
 "Only a fool would prophecy. l be- lieve any one who understands the temper of the British people will agree with me that that has shown no signs of weakening, but, on the contrary, they are growing more de- termined to continue the war toa sat isfactory conclusion. On the other hand. the Germans appear equally determined"

 London was taken i'll last night and was found unconscious early this morn ing by a servant who went to his room to awaken him. His condition at first alarmed his sister. Mrs. Eliza Shepard. who summoned physicians from this city.

 ToHold Up Train
 Near Pershing Base

FL PASO, Nov. 22.-Armed Mexi- cans made an ineffective attempt to- day to hold up a train between Casas Crandes and Juarez, which is notable as the scene of the first bandit attack on the Mexico Northwestern line north of General Pershing's base since Jose lnez Salazar operated in this region last spring.
 The train left Casas Grandes, which is only a few miles from the Ameri- can expeditionary headquarters in the Mormon colony of Colonia Dubjan, this morning. When about 50 miles from Juarez. fifteen Mexicans ap- peared ahead near the track, accord ing to the story of the passengers. and signaled the engineer to stop. In- stead of stopping the engineer threw open the throttle. As the train rush. ed by the fifteen opened fire on it, but it soon raced out of danger.
 Passengers say they saw at this point another band of Mexicans, num- bering about forty. a short distance to one side, whom they believe to be part of the same band.
 There were six American civilians on board. coming north from Colonia Dublan where they have business.

CARRANzA TROOPS PREPARE TO
 FIGHT VILLA AT CHIHUAHUA CITY

with a complete division of troops. making it impossible for Villa to pro ceed south toward Torreon.
 It was pointed out by this official that Villa would be between two Car ranZa forces if he remained in the vicinity of Santa Rosalia and Ortiz. while he would be able to attack Chi huahua City with only General Ire who's force opposing his. This force is much smaller than that of General Murguia, who is said to have approxi mately 10000 men and who is re- ported to have reached Jimenez. Ac- cording to this same source, General Trevino was ordered to return. stay in Chihuahua City and defend the state capital instead of taking the field against Villa bandits
 A number of wounded are reported to have reached Chihuahua City from the vicinity of Ortiz where a series of skirmishes have occurred. Villa is said to be in Horcasitas. about 2S miles south of the capital, but this re- port is not verified.
 Brigadier General Gonzales, con- mander of the troops in Juarez, has been promoted to be a general of brigade. rank higher than brigadier general in the Mexican army.
