STILL HOPE FOR
PEACE MEETING
IN ternational News CIVIC:


WASHINGTON, Dec. 20. - Hope
for continued negotiations between
allied central powers and the en-
tente powers with final peace as a
possibility if not a probability. was
expressed in diplomatic circles
here today. While neither Pres't
Wilson nor Sec'y of State Lansing
would discuss the matter, it was
learned that the administration be-
lieves the lOyd-George reply to the
German peace proposal leaves the
way open for further peace discus
sion, with fair prospect of sue
cess. This view is likewise held by
representatives of the various neu-
trail nations in Washington.
Washington diplomatists base
their hope on the paragraph Of
Lloyd-George's speech which set
forth that the entente powers will
wait till we hear what terms and
guarantees the German govern
'ment offers. better than those, surer
than those, which she so lightly
broke"
On authority close to the German
embassy, it was learned that Ger
many is fully prepared TO lay before
the entente allies terms of peace
which will be more or less definite.
German diplomats, however, will
rot at this time make a public state
ment Of the details Of her peace
terms.
They take the position that the
basis Of settlement should be reach
ed in private discussion and not
through public diplomatic cores
pondence, characterized by all of
the bitterness of the pending con-
fiict.
Germany's reply to the first COM
ing entente note on the peace pro-
posals is expected 70 suggest that
the terms of peace be submitted to
a joint conference.

Mrs. Iva Barnes. charged with the
murder of her husband, James r.
Barnes. today took the witness stand
and laid bare her life before the

life.
Previously Mrs. Barnes had heard
her sister, Mrs. III. Ingersoll, and her
closest friend, Mrs. Louisa Thomp-

treated her cruelty ana repulsed her
affectionate advances while they
were living together.
Mrs. Barnes collapsed shortly be-
fore she was TO take the stand, but

ed bravely to the witness chair.
There, with face white as wax. and
a voice so low il scarcely reached
the jurors. she began her story.

She told of her early life, of
hoy and girl marriage contracted
divorced and OF her work as a mil
liner in her home town of Misha-
waka, Ind, and in South Bend, Ind,
and later in Chicago. Then she
rapidly sketched events until the
romantic meeting which led to her
marriage with Barnes.
IL was in a restaurant where she
was dining with a man, she said.
her escort left her for a moment
and Barnes. who was seated at a
nearby table, passed by and drop
ped into her hand a card bearing
his name and telephone number.
She called him up the next day, she
said. met him on a street corner
later and thus began friendly rela-
tons which eliminated in their
marriage.
Mrs Barnes next took up the
story Of her life with Barnes, which,
as she pictured il. was years OF
drinking. i'll treatment and neglect
on his part and of love that made
allowances for many things on hers.
Met Dandy Bartender.
Gradually she was led up TO her
meeting with Ray Scheliheimer. the
dandy bartender whom she met in
a park and whose presence in her
home led to q separation from her
husband
1t was the part Of her testimony
for which the spectators, tanning
every foot of the court room, had
been waiting impatiently.
At this point Mrs. Barnes was
overcome and sank from her chair.
unconscious. She was revived and
court adjourned for the noon day
recess. After being taken TO the
matrou's room, Mrs. Barnes again
collapsed.
