The wreck occurred at a low place

days had washed out the track. Both en-

cars which left the track. The six

gratihcation TO-DAY as ii was pointed out
both in the note itself and by Secretary
Lansing tnat one OF the dangers was
that the allies would consider the step
as a pro-German move.
IMPRESSION CORRECTED,
Every effort was made TO remove thic
impression and TO have the note consid-
cred entirely apart from any other
events The entente diplomats. at first
very fearful, have now accepted this
view.
Lnarge Grew reported to the state de-
partment today that the presidents
peace note had been received In Berlin.
Early London press comment that the
note was painful because it said the OBJ
jects of the belligerents were practically
the same, was not unexpected here,
where attention has already been drawn
to the fact that president wilson specl-
tically declared that the published views
of the opposing statesmen left that i'm
preston.
1t is stated officially that the president
would not presume to say that the two
groups were lighting for the same object
but merely that their official spokes-
men had outlined much the same general
program without going into the actual
details which he now seems.
President Wilson's note to the BEL
ligerents urging discussion of peace was
officially interpreted as not bearing any
threat that the United States might be
forced to enter the war because of the
continued invasion of it's rights by the
warning powers on both sides.
This Interpretation was made late
Thursday by Secretary Lansing in
formal statement issued to overtake
what were characterized as widespread
misconstructions placed on one made
earlier in the day saying that because
of the increasingly critical position OF
the United States as a neutral 1t was

Russia Considers German
Note AIready Answered

PETROGRAD, Dec. 21.-(Via Lon
don, Dec. 22.)-Since the text of the
German peace proposal transmitted
through the American embassy to the
Russian foreign Office is identical with
the declaration already received unof-
ficially through the press, the Russian
government, the Associated Press is in
formed, considers that the offer of the
central powers has already been ade-
Quately answered.
The official reply, in conjunction
with Russias allies, will be made as
purely a matter of form and will con-
tain no new point. 1t is stated that it
will embody official sentiment hereto
fore expressed and will emphatically
reject the proposal on the ground that
it's vagueness and lack of sincerity as
so regarded by the Russian government
do not permit of it's serious considera-
ton.

British Government Surprised
and Frankly Admitted 1t,
While Newspapers Talk of
Nothing Else
CBy Associated Press.)


LONDON, Dec. 22.-President Wilson's
note is given the biggest display in the
morning papers, RELOCATING the wal
news to a minor place. Headlines such
as President Wilson's Strange Peace
Essay" President Wilson's Peace
Feeler." Amazing Note" indicate in
slight measure the establishment caused
by the communication.
The general public had their first
news of President Wilson's note from
the morning papers and the matter was
the one topic of conversation on incom-
ing suburban trains and throughout the
country. The people. like the press.
were rather taken aback as they had
about arrived at the conclusion that
Premier Lloyd-George's speech had put
an end to all peace talk unless the CEN
trail powers in their reply to the pre-
mier, were prepared to define their
terms. That the president or any other
neutral ruler would take any action
was farthest from their mind.
The evening papers. who do not print
editorials, came out with big headlines
which expressed their views. The Eve
ming News. the afternoon edition OF
the Daily Mail, heads a reprint OF the
comment of the morning papers with
the one WOTus NO. III DAnSh NgPS
and under il, our Answer to President
Wilson" and again mo. No, No; That
rs the Answer Great Britain Gives To-
day without a Moments Hesitation to
the Surprising Note from President VIII
SON."
Much speculation is INDUCED in as to
the motives or causes which inspired the
president to send such a note after his
assumption of the attitude that he
would not mediate unless invited by
both groups of belligerents.
One section of the press, utterly re-
jecting any idea of the possibility of
peace negotiations as the outcome of
the recent German note, fatty attributes
the presidents action 10 the success of
propaganda conducted by Count Won
Bernstorff in America and what they
describe as the mastery inactivity of
the late British government.
The more general impression is that
the agitation in America for an embar go
on food exports had much to do with
Mr.. Wilson's action. 1t is also sug-
gested that the president may have re-
ceived special information from the
German government and is aware OF the
extent to which Germany is prepared to
go toward PREPARATION, restitution and
guarantees" This is the view express

LONDON, Dec. 22.-An Exchange
Telegraph dispatch from The Hague
says 1t is announced semi-officially that
should entente allies in their reply to
the peace proposals of the central pow
ers leave the door open for negotiations
Germany will make known her chief
peace terms Immediately.
The German newspapers which con-
tain the announcement declare that the
speeches of Premier Lloyd-George and
Premier BRAND do not contain single
word which justifies the supposition that
the answer of the entente powers Will
deliberately reject Germany's peace or
fer and that, therefore, the German gov
eminent will define it's attitude after
receipt of the reply.
