ward board tried to steal its thunder
by giving a count on mayor. 1t was
about three minutes before $500
o'clock that the official count came in
from the seventh ward. It was fol-
lowed few minutes later with the
third ward figures. Then came the
fourth ward, the second, and the first.

CHRISTMAS SHIP
SAILS FOR SYRIA
WITH FOOD MONEY
Half Million Dollars Worth
Of Supplies Going to
Starving People.

New York, Dec. 16.-Two former
American ambassadors to Turkey, Os-
car S. Straus and Henry Morgan
THAI, took part today in the cere-
monies preceding the sailing of Am
erica's Christmas ship, the United
States naval collier Caesar, for Beir-
ut, with $250000 worth of food, cloth
ing and medical supplies for the desti-
tute people of Syria and Armenia.
The food and clothing were pur-
chased with funds collected by the
American Committee for Armenian
and Syrian relief, and the medical
supplies were contributed by the Am
erican Red Cross. The ship will not
sail until tomrrow, because the load
ing of the cargo was not completed
until late today.
The relief committee announced to-
day that besides the shipment on the
Caesar, they had cabled $410,000 for
disbursement at inland points which
can not receive supplies from the
Caesars cargo, and besides have
pledged S5OO,O00, to be spent in Syria
and Armenia in January, although its
treasury is declared to be virtually

Associated Press Summary

ASSOCIATED Press Summary
The notes of Germany, Austro-Hun-
gary and Turkey, proposing peace ne
gotiations, are expected to reach the
capitals of the entente powers before
Monday night. They were forwarded
from Washington late Saturday by
cable. They were not accompanied
by an expression from the United
States government, but it is said that
President Wilson has reserved the OPP
portunity to add word for peace in
some way in the future.
Transmission Of the notes was pre-
coded by visit by Count Won Berns-
torff, the German ambassador, to Sec
rotary of State Lansing, at the con-
clusion of which the ambassador said
they did not discuss peace terms, and
that the sending of the proposals
without comment on the part of the
United States government was a mat
ter for this country to decide.
The note to the British government
probably will be received in London
in time to be read before next Tues
day, when the premier, David Llovd-
George, was to appear before the
house of commons, but it now appears
unlikely that his physicians will al
low him to speak before the house on
that day. ,..
Infantry Fighting Near Verdun.
Infantry fighting was resumed to-
day on the east bank Of the Mouse
river, in the Verdun sector, but which
of the combatants assumed the Of
fensive is not specified in the state
ment issued by the German war of
flee. During the previous night, the
German troops had undertaken no
counter attacks to regain the ground
lost as result of the stroke inflicted
by the French on Friday. Details of
the French advance indicate the cap
ture of 5000 Germans and about so
guns. Four French divisions partici-
\ pated in the attacks, and the French
war office indicates they were OPP
posed by five German divisions.
The Teutonic armies in Rumania
continue to gain ground. The state
ment by the German war office that
the Buzeu river sector has been forced
may mean that the Teutons actually
have crossed that river, along the
line Of which it was expected the Ru-
manians would make their next stand.
Germans Penetrate British Line.
After an intense artillery duel in
the vicinity of Ypres and Wyschaetem,
German troops delivered an assault
south of Zillebeke, penetrating a sec
ton of the British line.
The further advance of the British
on the Tigers front in Mesopotamia to
within three-fourths of mile of that
river, opposite Kut-el-Amara, is re-
corded.
Revolutionary outbreaks in Portu-
gal, accompanied by mutiny of some
troops, have been quelled.
1t is announced that Great Britain
has decided to take control of the
Irish railways, and that the threaten
ed strikes on those lines have beer
averted.

PRIZE Of WHEAT AGAIN
May Goes to S1.63 on Excited Market,
Due to Rejection by Russia of
Peace Offer.

Chicago, Dec. 16.-The wheat mar
ket somesaulted on gigantic scale to-
day, and an upward jump of 10 points
to 1O2 came as a violent reversal of
the 13 1-8 drop in the trading of the
day before. During the rise the ra-
pidity of trading and accompanying
excitement were at a pitch not sur
passed since the beginning of the Eu-
ropean war.
The Russian dumas decision to re.
ject the German peace proposal, and
the declaration of the white house that
it would forward the Teuton proposal
without comment were ruling fac
tors.
Final quotations were greatly un-
settled, May, the leading option, 60
