Washington, Nov. 26.-The bolsheviki
proposal for an armistice and universal
peace is officially before President viii
son today. The peace offer arrived over
Sunday from Ambassador Francis. at
Petrograd.
1t will be carefully considered bv
president Wilson and Secretary of State
Lansing. Whether it will be answered
IS still undecided. An answer might be
construed as recognition Of the boishevi-
XII as the de facto government and this
matter will be one Of the chief points in
determining America Is course.
In any event, this government viii
not accept an armistice and it has no
intention of negotiating for peace until
its aim OF safety for world democracy
is accomplished, the state department.
indicated today.
If an answer is given, IL will endeavor
probably to solidify the Russian people
behind the war and TO shatter further
efforts at an armistice or q separate
peace which might aid Germany.

tending to the Russian army and navy

tou"y' cHolllcial reports leau the nus
sian embassy to believe that the Maxi
malist power has not reached its crest
yet. The internal bolsevilSi program is
gaining in strength every day. 1t may
be some weeks even months, il was
pointed out, before the Russian masses
realize that their program of an inter-
peace is doomed to failure.
Reports of fighting on the Jackstadt
sector are regarded as significant by
attaches of the embassy. They
believe it inevitable that some army
units will refuse to fall in with the
bolsheviki program.

STRUGGLE SWINGING
IN ITALYS FAVOR
SAYS OFFICIAL REPORT
Berlin Official Report Admits
That TeutOns Are In
Defensive Now

With the italian Armies, Nov. 26.-
The crucial battle across the eleven
mile gap between the Brenta and Pi-
ave rivers was swinging in Italy IS fav-
or today.
The fighting is indescrbably bitter.
The armies have been locked in q
death grapple almost continuously for
days. The Italians are not only win
ming defensively but in the past 4S
hours have assumed the offensive.
Their great guns have poured an al
most ceaseless rain of shells on the
German and Austrian lines
In two weeks it is estimated the en-
emv has lost $4,000 men and so far
there has been no diminution in his
attacks. Reinforcement after reinforce
ment has been hurried up and flung
into the line.
One ridge in the mountainous line
changed hands three times yesterday,
its rocky contour literally blasted
away by the terrific artillery fire of
both sides.
Italian aviators fluttering close over
the enemy's lines have performed won
derful service in locating German and
Austrian batteries. Their ranging has
given the Italian guns an opportunity
for deadly accurate shooting. Over
one position behind ridge today Ital-
ian troops swarmed over to discover
many of the enemy guns blasted out
of their emplacements. No effort is
made to disguise the fact that the sit
uation for Italy in the enemy's drive
is still serious, but the morale of the
army, officers and men is probably
the best it has been during the war
and the utmost confidence is expressed
of ultimate victory.

BROUGHT DOWN THE HOUSE.

San Francisco, Nov. 26.-
When Harry Renton, dining in
an Italian restaurant, sprang to
his feet and sang "Die Wacht
Am Rhein', he brought down
the house-one chair at a time.
When they dug Harry out of the
wreckage of chairs, tables, etc,
and the shell holes caused by a
barrage fire of spaghetti, fruit
and salt shakers he was seriously
injured. To celebrate the victory
Italian diners sang Garibaldi's
hymn.

Members Of City Council last night
received from the Street and Sewer
Department a letter, sent 70 that body
BY Thomas W. Wilson. vice-presldent
and general manager Of the Whining
ton and Philadelphia Traction Com
pany, stating that six more new troll
ley cars had been ordered for the
local tssyem These cars. Il was
stated would he placed on the divi-
sions now crowded or on which the
old style smali-cars are operated.
The letter was in response TO one
sent to the traction company on
December rs at the request of Coun-
Gilman McDermott who contended
that the Maryland avenue line was
handicapped by small cars. In his
reply last night Mr.. Wilson said the
distribution OF the compapy's equip
ment has been the subject OF careful
study on the company's part. The
heaviest trafic is handled on the
West Fourth and Shellpot Park lines
on the Delaware avenue line and on
the lines 20 Chester. New Castle and
Delaware City and tho company has
therefore placed large double truck
cars IN service on these lines.
Mr.. Wilson said the West Eighth
street line has recently shown an In
crease in the number OF passengers
carried az rush hours and the COM
panv therefore has ordered three now
double truck cars which are being
placed upon this line as they arrive.
Mr.. Wilson wrote that the company
officers believe that any change in
the present distribution OF equip
ment would result in a deterioration
u the service and the consequent in
convenience Of the public.
