BRYCE DECLARES THAT ALLIES
WILL FIGHT UNTIL THEY WIN

LONDON, July 5.-Niscount Bryce,
former Fritish ambassador to Ameri-
ca. addressing the Pilgrim Society this
afternoon, threw back upon Germany
the responsibility for prolonging the
war. He addressed luncheon IN
honor Of James Beck, former assist
ant attorney general of America.
Bryce directly replied to the letter
recently sent urging him to use his
efforts in behalf of peace, He de-
clared that Germany was unwilling to
agree upon a reasonable settlement
now.
"A !etter recently reached me from
America saving that the war must end
in draw, and asking why not save
further blcodshed 1t was significant
that most of the signers were Of Ger
man origin. We feel the horror and
the suffering of the war as much as
the raclficists, but We cannot agree to
peace at this suggestion First, I
don't think the war swill end in a
draw. The allies are going to win.

Tennis Stars From La Grande
Garry Off Honors of Tourney

La Grande's tennis representatives
carried back with them this morning
the CHIEF honors in the second an
nual eastern oregon tournament,
which was concluded at Roundup
Park after 6 o'clock last evening. ]
Garfield King, secretary Of the La

championship. defeating Prof.
Kroesch of Whitman college in
straight sets, He and his teammate,
n. w Frees, won tine finals OF the
doubles, taking three out Of four sets
from Groesch and Hurspool of Walla
Walla.
King was the dark horse of the
tournament, He has only been in La
Grande two or three months and
nothing was known here of his rec
ord However, from hints dropped
by other La Granders it appears that
he has played in some Of the biggest
tournaments in the country. AT that
he had Kroesch at disadvantage,
owing to the fact that the latter was
tired out by hard day of play when
the finals arrived.
Kroesch is the more brilliant player
of the two but King Is the most steady
player and surest on the return of
any racquet wielder who has ever
played on a local court. Nothing dis
turbs his cquanimity and playing far
back in the court, he returns almost
everything that comes over, lobbying
them back with a perfect stroke. He
covers a great deal of ground and
was in physical condition that made
him fresh when others were weary.
He took two straight sets from
Kroesch by 6-2 score and the Walla

WASHINGTON, july 5.-If the
Mexican note peacefully readjusts the
present strained relations it will re-
veal remarkable bit of unofficial di-
plomacy.
II became known today that Car
rama a week ago framed and prac.
tically was ready to send a defiant re,
ply to Wilson's demands. Then the
unofficial diplomats got busy, They
include American and Mexican labor
leaders and persons in sympathy with
labor, including Lincoln Steffens and
samuel Gompers.
The Mexican embassy here assist
ed in their communicating with Car
rama and the Intermediates bonn
barded Carranza without a letup.
They concentrated on the idea of con-
vincing Carranza that Wilson was sin
cere in wishing to keep hands off
in Mexican internal affairs. They
brought every argument and influence
to bear.
The defiant note was never sent
After referring to the release OF the
Carrizal prisoners, the communica-
tion says
THE Mexican government earnestly
suggested plan Of cantonments
along the boundary during the con-
ferences at Juarez and Ell Paso.
THE withdrawal OF American
troops on one hand and the protection
of the frontier on the other, are two
essential problems the solution of
which must be the object of both gov
ernments
THE Mexican government Is will
ing to consider in a quick and practi-
cal way, remedies that may be applied
TO the present situation
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1916-07-05

Seconl Germany is not prepared to
accept our terms. The German gov
ernment knows It will be beaten. but
the people do not know 1t yet The
government has fed them falsehoods
and now fears to accept terms which
would recognize its failure. Thirdly,
We co not hate the Germans. We do
not desire to destroy their national
unity or inflict permanent injury but
desire to exercise the evil spirit and dis
credit the military caste from delight
ing in war. threatening all countries
America included. What England
wants is security for herself and her
dominions, deliverance of Belgium
and France and such changes in the
east making it impossible for the
Turks to massacre Christians or be-
come the vqssals or tools of Germanys
projected eastward advance. The al
lies are resolved to prosecute the war
until the victory is won.'

WASHINGTON, July 5.-The Car
rama note. answering the American
communications was sent to Lansing
today Its tone is completely pacifi-
catory, as forecasted.
The reply in brief emphasizes the
significance Of the immediate release
of the Carrizal prisoners, indicating
Carranza's desire for peace The note
says that Mexico Is favorable to medi-
alton and will let the United States
decide whether mediation or direct
negotion is to be used Embar-
rassment resulting from the presence
~ troops In Mexico IS emphasized but
the demand for their withdrawal is
not renewed.
The note concludes: "In the mean
time this government will employ its
efforts to avoid recurrence Of the
incidents which may complicate and
aggravate the situation. At the same
time the American government may
use its efforts to prevent new acts of
military or civil authorities along the
frontier that may cause complica-
tions.'

States is willing to continue negotia-
tions with Carranza. He handed the
note to Wilson

day.
The news that the Kaiser is with
drawing troops from Eerdun to meet
the allies offensive was considered
vastly more important than the Off

lieved to indicate a shortage in Ger

grave menace Of the present offensive.
German, British and French offici-
al statements agreed that the allied
