London, Nov 30.-America should
know Immediately that the Marquis
of Lansdowne's suggestion of relin-
quishment of certain original war
aims so as to negotiate a peace before
Germany is beaten does not represent
any responsible section of British
public opinion.
That was made emphatically appar-
ent here today in aftermath comment
on what most circles characterized as
the former minister's amazing COM
munication to the Daily Telegraph.
Best information is that the marquis
acted solely on his own personal ini-
tiative. He did not consult his former
Unionist colleagues. Many of them
today expressed sincere regret over
Lansdowne's suggestion that peace
should even be considered before the
ideals for which thousands of British
and French lives have been sacrificed
could be realized
Gives Enemy Encouragement.
The Daily News, which has long
shown pacifist tendencies, was the
only morning paper to approve Lans-
downe's letter without qualification
Other papers condemn his suggestions
wholly or in part. The letter is re-
garded as deplorable owing to the en-
coura cement it viii undoubtedly give
the enemy.

Amsterdam, Nov. 30.-The Austro-
Hungarian government, according to.
a dispatch from Vienna, has sent an
official reply accepting the Russian
governments wireless proposal to en-
ter into negotiations for an armistice
and a general peace treaty.
The reply was sent yesterday and
is as follows:
The guiding principles announced
by the Russian government for nego-
tiations for an armistice and a peace
treaty, counter-proposals to which are
awaited by the Russian government,
are in the opinion of the Austro-
Hungarian government a suitable
basis for entering upon these nego-
tiations The Hungarian gov
ernment therefore declares that it is
ready to enter upon negotiations as
proposed by the Russian government
regarding an immediate armistice and
a general peace.

Washington, Nov. 3O.-Austria's de-
cision to line up with Germany in
opening peace negotiations with the
Russian Bolsheviki may have some
effect on the administrations disin-
clination toward p declaration of war
on the dual monarchy, but it is
thought in official circles here that it
will not bring about any tangible de-
velopment for the present at least.
Administration senators have found
on conference with the executive
branch of the government that there
is no disposition to ask congress to
make another war declaration at this
time. They found the hope of break
ing up the central power alliance had
not been entirely abandoned
