ROUMANlAN LOSS 100000
Berlin Says 100000 Are Prisoners and
$50 900 Killed or Wounded

Berlin, Dec. IA. - The total losses
of the Roumanians in all sections
since the beginning of the war to date
are estimated at 10000 prisoners.
250,000 men killed or wounded and
600 cannon, or the equipment of four
to five army corps The strength Of
the remaining Roumanian artillery, in
consequence, is reckoned at nearly nil,
and the strength OF the army at even
less than that of the Serbian forces
which reached Greece after the re-
treat last year.
1t is reported that the destruction
of Roumanian petroleum supplies was
considerably less serious than at first
believed, as the Roumanian flight was
too precipitate for them to do more
than partly set the supplies on fire.
They are said to. have lacked suffi-
cient explosives, while the work OF
the Austro German troops In extin.
gushing such fires as had been set
proved Unexpectedly effective.

GREEK PROTEST PUBLISHED D
Denounces Blockade Established by
Entente Allies.

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE Greek
legation has made public the text Of
the Greek protest against the allies
blockade of Hellenic ports. 1t reads:
Greece, who is at peace with the
powers of the entente and has never
ceased giving them the most striking
proofs of her firm desire to maintain
with them friendly relations and mu-
tual confidence, sees with grief these
very same powers have recourse
against her to q measure which is
contrary to the rules of international
law and the principles of international
Justice and freedom.
The royal Hellenic government, ex-
pecting that the allied governments
would be good enough to inform them
on what ground such = measure has
been taken and OF the nature Of the
blockade they have decided upon. pro-
tests firmly and legitimately against
such measures taken against neutral
and friendly nation"

LITTLE CONFIDENCE
IN PEACE PROFFER

London. Dec. 14.-Although little
confidence Is shown in London that
any result will come from the peace
proposal of the central powers, and
the opinion prevails quite generally
that the time is not opportune even
to discuss terms, there is an under
current Of feeling that something
would be gained by making the world
acquainted definitely with the OBJ
jects Of the belligerents.
The attitude of the British govern.
ment toward the offer will be made
known in the house Of commons short
ly and this statement is awaited with
the greatest interest.
II the press, which supports the ad-
ministration, correctly interprets ON.
cial opinion, little time will be taken
up by consideration of the move OF
Germany and her allies, although the
moderate opinion OF, the country does
not favor too hastily rejection Of the
overtures.

Central Powers Stalking All
in Present Peace Offer.
PUBLIC APPROVES IDEA
German People in Complete Approba-
tion OF ChancelIor's Warning In
Reichstau That IL Enemies Continue
War II viii Be for Conquest Only.

Berlin, Dec. 14-If Germany's bid
for peace is rejected by the entente
powers 1t is certain the central en-
pires will not take the initiative again
to end the war.
The public voices complete appro-
baton of the imperial chancellor's
solemn warning in the reichstag that
II Germany's enemies continue the war
it is because they have conquest In
mind Such belief imbues the gen
eral public with fixed determination
to fight on to the bitter end against
any dismemberment of the fatherland.
The hopes of the German people
are wholehearted, but If the present
proposal is scorned, the rejection of
plan for discussion of terms would be
sure to cement the empire more firm
ly in it's determination and to dispel
peace talk and speculation which has
been current.
Berlin newspapers are not sanguine
that the peace offer would be accept
ed, although applauding the chancel-
lor's steps. The comment of Editor
Theodore Wolfe of the Tageblatt lis
typical
"lf the opposing allies should de-
cline the peace overtures or disdain
them as a sign of weakness and suf-
fering. the people will once more ask
themselves whether they are not be.
ing driven senselessly and without
urgent need to new sacrifices and re-
newed massacres.
"The German people, II their oppo-
nents answer in the negative, will
see clearly ii is their duty to bear the
heavy burden or heavier burdens so
long as there is no possibility OF
agreeing upon an acceptable and SEN
sible peace"
Die Post warns the entente 'if Ger
many's hand Is refused her fist will
soon be felt in increased force"
The editorial also suggests that
Germany's own peace offers indicate
there is no necessity of neutral ma
tions' offers for peace.

President Wilson Seeks Way
to Secure Peace.
TERMS NOT MADE PUBLIC
Washington Executive Silent on the
Question, but He Holds Conference
With Colonel House, Former Peace
Envoy to Europe.

Washington, Dec. 14.-President
Wilson's course of action In connec-
ton with Germanys peace proposals
remained undecided while he awaited
the official proffer which the central
powers have asked the United States
to transmit to their enemies.
The impression grew that while the
presidents first consideration was to
safeguard his usefulness as peace
maker by emitting any comment
which might possibly be coupled with
disposition to find some way how
ever delicate and informal. to init
mate the sincere wish of the United
States that some basis for discussion
at least might be reached
Many officials felt that an indication
of the temper of the entente govern.
ments should be available before the
influence of the United States was
thrown into the balance.
dual responsibility of representing the
interests of most of the central pow
ers and the entente governments in
the capitals of their enemies, would,
of course, become the medium of com
munication through which any reply
of the entente governments to the cen
tral belligerents would be made.
Germany Expects an Answer.
The Germanic diplomats in this
country, rejecting the views of their
government, believe the answer OF
the allies will be an inquiry as to the
basis on which Germany proposes
peace and with that much as a foun
dation they see the warning nations
well on the way to conference from
which they are sanguine peace would
result.
The president Cancelled all his out
side engagements, including one to
preside over the annual meeting OF
the American Red Cross, and remain
ed in the White House, where he con
ferred with Colonel e. M. House, his
friend and adviser. who made one
trip to Europe to sound out peace sen
timent several months ago.
| II was reiterated that until the of
icial documents had been received fol
transmittal to the entente no decision
could be reached as to what the Unit
ed States would do further than tc
transmit them.
In quarters close to the allies ar
opinion prevails that II the entente
made reply their first course might
be to inquire what guarantees would
be given by Germany that the terms
OF peace treaty would be fulfilled. BY
making such reply, entente diplo
mats see the responsibility for con
tinuing the war thrown back to the
central powers.

U. S, CONTROVERSIES

Washington, Dec. Ia. Peace over

effect Of suspending all diplomatic ex.

ADVISES HIGHER TARIFF
Steel Corporation Head Believes Unit

keener Competition Than Ever Be-
fore In Country's History.

New York, Dec. 14-Elbert Fl. Gary
chairman of the United States Steel
corporations directorate. said he be-
lieved peace would have an adverse,
II not disastrous, effect upon industry
and labor in the United States, unless
our tariff laws are changed.
my views are the same today as
those expressed before the American
Iron and Steel Institute" he declared
Whenever the war shall close the
business of this country will be con-
fronted with new conditions.
"The purchasirg power of the whole
world will have been very greatly re-
duced. Foreign countries which are
now buying our products, because
compelled, will withdraw their patron
age in a large measure.
"Other nonproducing countries will
find their financial resources and
credits lessened. More than this, for
strive more diligently than ever to
supply the countries that are imam
cially able to pay and at prices based
on cheap labor and low cost. as they
have perfect right to do.
Our producers. including our wage
earners, will find themselves in COM
mercial antagonsm with the most
persistent and difficult competition
ever experienced, unless this shall be
prevented by laws that are reason
able and sufficient.
II firmly believe IL the present un-
protective tariff laws remain unchang-
ed we shall meet with competition
from foreign sources after the war
closes which will adversely and per-
haps dsastrously affect American in
dustry and American labor"

COAL DUST AS SUBSTITUTE
Shortage Of Natural Gas In Pittsbure
District.

Pittsburg. Dec. 14.-Threatened by
shutdowns during the winter months
on account of shortage of natural
gas manufacturers In the Pittsburg
