SEES PEACE
IN 90 DAYS
Zimmerman, Banker,
Says Hardest Step
Has Been Taken

Indications that German fnanciers
in this country, men who are credited
with possessing powerful banking as
sociations in Berlin and Vienna, looA
for speedy conclusion of the war were
found in statement issued yesterday
bv Leopold Zimmerman, OF Zimmer
mann & Forshay.
Mr.. zimmerman explained his recen'
action in Offering German and Austrian
exchange at present prices, payable IN
ninety DAYS in Berlin and Vienna, on
the grounds that he was convinced, as
a result of advices from high quarters
abroad. that peace would have been
brought about by that time.
Weight was attached to this state
ment in some quarters because OF the
fact that the Zimmerman firm has
seemed TO have access to avenues of
information from the Central Powers
not open to others. Mr.. zimmerman
sold bonds Of the Central Powers here
early in the war and, a short time
later. sold English. stocks held in Ger
many at 25 per cent off the New York
price.
Mr.. Zimmermann's Statement
His statement was:
"The activities OF the firm OF zim-
mcrmann & Forshsy with reference to
the sale Of German and Austrian bonds
and time exchange since Germanys at
titude on peace was announced recent
tv have resulted IN much speculation
among those in this country and
abroad whose commercial interests ere

anv special significance in the offer OF
his firm known to have been made IN
the last few days TO large American I'M
norters TO sell them German and Aus

Deutscher bank, Berlin, or at the
Wiener Bankverein, Vienna.
Sees Immediate Peace
"r, ,vas nointed out that this is the
first time since tn, commencement OF
the war that time bills of exchange on
either Germany or Austria have been
offered in the American market, and
Mr. Zimmerman was asked whether he
was acting in cooperation with the Cen-
tral Powers and whether the transac-
tions proposed reflected the view OF the
latter that the war would be over IN
ninety days. .,.
"Mr. Zimmerman replied 70 the cues

AiARi's, LITTLE LAMB OITnONl1

According to Juvenile literature
Iary's Little Lamb followed her to
school one day, but this tradition is
entirely put out of the running by
he fact that the Montana sheep
.nan's little lamb follows him to the
-ank. With the present price OF
ambs at SIS per hundred, which
would average SIS per head, and with
wool around 35 cents per pound, it
IS no wonder that the Montana flock
masters are fighting for an oppor-
tunity to subscribe for all the for
cign loans offered in this country.
