ABSOLUTE SILENCE,
WILSON PEACE POLICY

Washington. Dec. 2S.-A
policy Of absolute silence re-
garding the peace negotla-
iions has been adopted by
President Wilson and Secrc-
tary Lansing. 1t was stated
officially to-day that all step:
henceforth will be regarded
as confidential, that no COM

development and that rumor,
will not be discussed in any
way.

No Terms Unless Asked

No Terms Unless Asked
No terms. concretely speaking,
will come from the German govern
ment unless President Wilson makes
a definite request for a statement OF
terms, which. it is said, he will not
do, or unless the expected note Of the
Allies leave the situation in such
form that the Germans must as
matter of policy announce terms.
President Wilson and Secretary
Lansing have made resolution, ef-
fective Immediately and based on the
saying: Least said soonest mended."
So far as the Secretary is concerned
he is under orders to say nothing.
The President himself has told
friends no further word will be
vouchsafed by the government of the
United States until some word or act
of the Germans or the Allies calls IT
forth.
A report is expected tomorrow
from Ambassador Gerard, following
the luncheon conversation he had
yesterday with the German Foreign
Minister, Zimmerman. Mr.. Gerard
may have tidings Of the greatest mo-
ment to communicate concerning the
submarine peril which the American
officials have such good reason TO
fear.
Talk of Break IL Unfounded
It is said, too, that Mr.. Gerard may
have been authorized TO tell Presi-
dent Wilson that Germany is willing
TO state terms Of peace to him in con-
fidence, if the expected reply Of the
Allies declines the German offer OF
direct conference without prior knowl-
edge OF terms.
A story printed here this afternoon
and sent TO a great many afternoon
newspapers throughout the United
States was to the effect that Presi-
dent Wilson contemplated a diplomatic
break with Germany. II peace negotia-
tons failed. This action vas to be
taken on the basis Of submarine cut

This Is dream stuff, pure and simple

half a dozen reasons for break vitf
Germany If Mr.. Wilson meant what no
said in the Sussex note. The peace ne
gotiations come at very opportune
time to cover the unwillingness Of the
Administration to grapple boldly with
the submarine peril. The Arabia ease

PARIS IS PLEASED

French Hold Berlin Reply
a Rebuff to PreSi-
dent Wilson
By cable 20 rhe rdbunel

Paris. Dec. 2S.-French opinion re-
ceives the German reply 20 President
Wilson's peace note with scorn, seeing
in it no opportunity for peace, but only
another and more gross trap for the
Allies. II is considered as an a5so-
lutte refusal, in courteous form, OF the
Presidents proposals, as no attention
is paid to the suggestion that the bel
ligerents state the ends for which they
are fighting.
The general opinion is that the only
thing the Allies can do is TO answer
President Wilson, giving him clear
exclamation of'what he asks for. and
then 20 on fighting until Germany is
conquered.
The Cars order to his troops to-day
has boosted the Allies position greatly.
Great satisfaction is also evinced over
the resolution adopted yesterday by
the French Socialist congress, saying
that the German note made no real
peace proposals and calling upon the
Allies to prosecute the var vigorously.
War to the Knife
Gustave Herve says in "Victoire'
"This time the trap is so open that
e&en the most determined pacifsts can
not fail to see it. But happily the Allied
governments are not so unintelligen'
as to fall into it. All they can do is to
tell President Wilson in a collectiys
note what their peace conditions are
and this will not inconvenience them in
the least.
president Wilson and the Socialist
party ask the government what are tho
ends of the war? They will soon have
the question answered, but we warn
them that this enunciation will throw
Germany back into war 20 the knife

Wilson's proposition.
at carefully eliminates every essen
tial point" this paper continues. "anc
responds TO the question as TO what are
Germany's ends in the war by vague
formula. Germany would Ike TO fish II
troubled waters, and it is easy TO see
why. While plenipotentiaries talked
there would necessarily be let-up, Il
not cessation, of hostilities, and Ger
many would expect relaxation OF th'
Allied blockade in exchange for eessa
ton Of submarine warfare.
Hopes TO Replenish Supplies
Germany knows the Allies will no
make peace on her terms, but she know:
that while pourparlers were going o:
she would have time for ravitaillemen
and fresh military preparations, IN th'
same way she prepared for mobilization
on July II, 1914. while the other nations
were trying 20 preserve peace.

BABY WINS FIGHT
FOR FRONT DOOR
Court Kills Rule. FayOring
Dogs, That Infants Must
Use Side Entrance

Ma.gery Reese. four years old. may

the apartment house at 900 West l6Oth
Street, where her father. Albert, lives,
just as freely as the most arlstocratic
dog in the house. by the terms of an
injunction Justice Blur granted yes
terday As to children in other houses,
II depends altogether on what Kind of
a side or rear entrance there is.
Justice BLUR decided that the side
entrance at 400 West l6Oth Street
was suitable for Msrgery neither in
convenience. safety nor dignity. at
is not in any respect appropriate to
that end" said he.
So that will be the status Of the fight
for baby's rights until the matter can
be tried before a jury. In The mean
time the temporary injunction OBJ
tanned by Mr.. Reese IS continued by
Justice Blur.
The entrance to the house" said
Justice Blur. "as appears from photo
graphs furnished by the defendant. is
on Edgecombe Avenue. through a fairly
imposing arched door two stories
in height, which openf upon high and
elaborate marble hoored hall. from
which two elevators and stairway lead
to the upper stories When plaintiff
rented his apartment nc acquired ac~
cess thereto through this entrance for
himself and the members Of his fam
lily.
ar another and subordinate entrance
was provided for them with suitable
means of ingress and egress. even
though less elaborate and dignihed in
appearance, il might be that the defend
ant could properly insist that members
of plaintiffs family under the dissbili-
ties naturally attendant on infancy or
illness should use such auxiliary means
of access. The so-called entrance, how
ever. through which defendant now in
ssts that plaintiff shall take his baby
in the baby carriage is not in any re-
spect appropriate 20 that end.
An Unreasonable Regulation
Justice BLUR goes into the details Of
the construction of the side entrance,
which he points out is 100 feet from
the front entrance of the house and
down a grade of s degrees. He said
that the inconvenient location of the
passageway. its obstruction b. three
sets of doors and the three steep steps
over which it gives access to the street
are all elements that SHOW the incon-
venience and danger of taking Margery
in and out that way.
Therefore, the regulation requiring
Mr.. Reese to avail himself Of the in
appropriate passageway leading 20 the
side entrance on l60th Street is an un-
reasonable one, in the opinion Of the
justice.

Capture 5000 More

In their operations north OF Ram
nicu-Sarat the Germans captured yes
terday 5000 more prisoners. The main
body OF the Russian army retreated
20 the Ramnicu River.
The 9th German Army claims that
capture OF more than 10000 prisoners
in the battle for Ramnicu-Sarat. Com
plete victory has met the efforts Of
Falkenhayn in this region. Berlin
states tonight. The loss Of ground

Goats, Tea and Rubber.

There was time when the Turkish
government imposed the death penalty
on persons caught trying to smuggle
out Of the empire the best breeds Of
Angora goats. In 1881 a Californian
bought four goats in Turkey, carried
them on mules, camels and in a closed
carriage for some hundreds Of miles,
sheared off their luXuriant wool, rolled
them in coal dust and escaped with
the goats. The descendants of these
goats are found on ranches in the west

STEAM AUTO FOR RAILWAYS.
New Car to Carry a. Persons and
Make a Mile a Minute.

A steam automobile railway car
using kerosene as fuel, capable of
making a mile a minute and carrying
"A passengers, is being built by the
Unit Railway Car Company in New
ton, Mass. The members Of this con-
Germ consist of F. E. and F. o. Stan
ley, who manufacture steam auto
mobile that bears their name. For d
long time the Stanleys have been
working upon a plan of adapting the
steam automobile engine to railroad
and street railway purposes. They
have now reached a point where the
first car, which may be described as
the steam automobile enlarged and
applied to rail conditions, will be on
the rails in the course of a month or
two.
F.. E. Stanley estimates that with
the present cost of kerosene the oper.
alton of the car will be about 1 cent
mile. It has a Luggage compart
ment for the engineer, weighs about
$4,000 pounds and will cost about $10,-
900. The body is Of steel and is
equipped with airbrakes, electric light
ing system and standard equipment.
Designs have been made for a smaller
car to carry 26 passengers and adapt
ed more for service similar to that of
trolley cars.
