 VIENNA, Oct. 11.-With a keen longing for peace, has come a persist ent speculation of the central states, as to the manner in which this bless ing may be secured. But although the question is but the substance of the persons own wishes. Political and military circles today are as far from seeing definite plan for the cessation of the war as they were in the be- ginning.
 If the fear prevailed in the central states that a peace with honor, and possibly profit, could not be secured, then thought must run in a different channel. But that the entente has not shown that it can ultimately realize its own hopes is the universal view in Austria Hungary and Germany and their allied countries. The offensive on the Somme, the Russian attack in Bukowina and in East Galicia, the en- try into the war of Rumania, and it's immediate consequences; the campaign from Saloniki and the exertions of the Italians have all contributed toward the feeling in the central group that the resistance met by the entente may vet open the eyes in those who must first announce that they will be satisfied with peace whose terms will not have the dismemberment of central Europe as a basis.
 The central governments are today today for a peace which would leave Europe very much as before the war, with the exception that Poland must be made an autonomous state. and that neither Belgium nor Serbia can again trouble, innocently or purposely, the quiet of Europe.
 There is here not the faintest indi- cation that the entente is inclined to enter negotiations on that basis. In Vienna and in Berlin on the other hand, nobody can yet see why the cen tral group should make concessions. since they claim to hold trumps every where by the occupation of enemy ter> ritories so large that the few ad- vantages gained by the entente can hardly count. Had the summer opera = tions driven the central troops out of France and Russia, things would be different. The Somme offensive has merely shown, according to the people here. that the steel wall of the Ger mans in the west may be bent. but cannot be broken, while resistance in the east has been splendid, numbers considered. The Italians have again been obliged to take breath. So long as the entente cannot convince the pub Hc oI the central states that It is gaining militarily, the necessity of making concessions will not break upon the centRl European mind.
 It is evident that the government and public are one on this subject. There is much grumbling about this or that regulation but all these things are trifles compared with the great objec- tive-that the war must not be lost.
 There is no evidence that Russia would be the first to make peace. Nevertheless-that country is thought of in this manner. Peace rumors al- ways have Russia in mind. Possibly this is due to the belief that Russia is, after all, the most vulnerable of

PARIS. Oct. 15.-(Via London.)- According to Jean Herbette. military strategist and writer on international affairs. the German submarine U-53 made a breach in the Monroe doctrine by sinking vessels off the New Eng land coast and it remains to be seen whether the United States will "sus- tain the celebrated American tradi- ton or jet it be cast aside"
 France is only disinterested spectator in the debate" said M. Herhette. because it makes little diff ference to her whether the Germans operate on one sid of the Atlantic or the other. but it will produce q great change in the political equilibrium of the world, if tEe doctrine shall be abrogated by President Wilson.
 President Monroe in formulating ms doctrine opposed naval as well as military control One cannot he tolerated without opening the door to the other"
 M Herbette recalls the case of French warships in 1870. cruising off New York in watch for German ves- sels. The French ships violated no laws. he said, yet their action re- suited in the American secretary of state sending warning note to Trance The principle then laid down has not been forgotten, he adds.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 15.-Clergymen at tending the general convention of the Protestant Episcopal church, in ses- sion here today, occupied all of the Episcopal pulpits of St. Louis, while numbers of others preached to congre- gations in neighboring cities. Scores of persons were obliged to stand through the services at Christ Church cathedral, a downtown church. where the Rt. Rev. Charles P. Brent, a bishop of the Philippines, made a plea for church unity.
 "Heresies and 'isms," said he, "be- gan with the separation of truth from the truth"
 Bishop Brent pleaded for loyalty on the part of all people to the whole truth and for a fearless study of any truth that may not be prevalent in our own church"
 Ut would do us no harm to study other creeds with a view to adopting the things worth while for ourselves" he added
 Twenty-Five thousand dollars in twenty five minutes for the estab- lishment of technical high school at Sagada, r. l., was subscribed by about 400 persons who remained after the regular sermon at Bishop Brent's in vitation.
 This afternoon a missionary mass meeting was held at which mission aries of the church told of their work in various parts of the world Tonight Bishop Ii. H. Montgomery. secretary of the Society for the Propagation of the gospel of the Church of England, preached the triennial mission sermon, and told of the work of his church in the mission field.
 Bishop Montgomery suggested that the American church send deputation of bishops, priests, laymen and lay women to England, to aid the church there in meeting unprecedented prob lens brought on by the war. Do you think you could send such | a delegation?" he asked. 'Of course | must get official sanction before I can | issue an invitation. The national mis- l sion council of Repentance and Hope | is to open January IF and 1 am posi- | tive you would get a welcome then anC | would aid us enormously in our study | of what is almost world reconstruc- ! tion"

MORALES, Ariz., Oct. 15.-Arriving here late this evening after the long journey from Tucson in the safety first" car. Governor J. H. Kibbey, Joe V. Prochaska and Judge Otis J. Baughn were warmly welcomed by a large dele gation of prominent citizens.
 Stops were made at San Xavier, Twin Buttes and Tubac during the afternoon where the candidates met many voters renewed old acquaint- ances and made many new friends. In view of the fact that these stops were of considerable length the arrival of the party in this city was not until nearly o'clock this evening.
 Everything is in readiness here for the monster republican rally to be held tomorrow evening when the candi- dates will address the local voters upon the issues
 Norman J. Mckenzie republican candidate for mine inspector, who has been meeting with exceptional success during the campaign did not arrive with the party as he spent the day at Silver Bell mine near Tucson. He will arrive here tomorrow in time for the meeting.
 In view of the unusually large audi ences that have been gathering to hear Governor Kibbey and the other candidates on the republican ticket, it is predicted that the meetings to be held in the south by campaign party number one will even exceed the monster Campbell meetings of sev- eral weeks ago.
 Never before throughout the south ern part of the state have there been so many republicans in evidence. It seems as though great flocks of them are coming out from behind every cactus and boulder in Santa Cruz and Cochise counties.
