BERLIN CONTINUES
 TO DISCUSS PEACE
Possibility of Further Concessions
 As Contrast With Allies
WAR PARTY CROWS STRONG

Chief Topic of Conversation But
 Ruthless Assaults on Commerce Arc
 Not Expected.
 Berlin, via London, Jan. 17.-Time enough having elapsed since the pub lication of the Entente's reply to President Wilson to permit German opinion to crystalline the effects of the announcement of terms which the Entente allies regard as necessary result of the war are clearly evident. In the first place the pronouncement of the Allies, together with earlier in- terchanges of opinion on the peace proposals, may be regarded as having virtually eliminated the peace party in Germany except for a small minority or dissident socialists, some of whose newspaper organs still see the possi- bility of continuing the discussions after the Entente's reply. The large and influential section, including 0 majority of the socialists and power- 1ul Influences among non-socialists. which up to last month was bringing the heaviest pressure to bear upon the government to take steps for the opSltllS OI HeSOLlatlOnS TOT peace, based on an understanding, is now convinced such negotiations are inn possible. Virtually the entire nation Is lined up behind the government for urgent prosecution of the war. Re- garding the possibility that Germany would make peace terms, the an- nouncement of Dr. Alfred Zimmerman the foreign secretary, to the Associat- ed Press indicates that this is now out of the question and the government has adopted this as a definite decision. For some reasons however, there is an impression which will not down, that the government may perhaps recon slider and make some announcement of its peace program. particularly in regard to Belgium and the remainder of the western front as it has done al- ready in regard to Poland.
 Depends On Polish Spirit.
 Whether the government will thus change its policy may, perhaps de- pend upon the degree of enthusiasm shown by the Poles in defending their country.
 Announcement of terms for the res toration of Belgium and return of the occupied provinces of France would, If issued, be made for purposes of con- trast with the program or the Entente which, so far as Germany is con- cerned, is interpreted as meaning an- neXation of Alsace and Lorraine, the west bank of the Rhine and the an cient Polish provinces of Prussia. Should the terms be announced it would not be in the expectation that they would lead, for the present to negotiations with the Entente.
 The possible inauguration of ruth less submarine warfare in conse quence of the attitude of the Entente with view to bringing England to terms, is much discussed.
 At present inauguration of so- called big submarine war-in other words, indiscrilninate destruction without warning of hostile merchant men and of neutrals within the for bidden zone-apparently Is. not con- emplated, but there are Indications that naval warfare may be sharpened in other ways affected by the German American agreement. Among possi- ble new measures is an increase in the rigor of the prize rules.

America Rapped at Dollar Man

Amsterdam, via London, Jan. IT, The Leipsic Neueste Nachrichten, commenting upon the speculation on the New York stock exchange at the time of the issuance of President Wilson's note. under the heading of "The Washington ScandaP' says:
 What interests us most in the scandal, so characteristic of American adroitness in making dollars out of a horrible slaughter by rustling peace palms, is the searchlight falling on national institutions and administra- ton. The war shows anew what peace taught to us hundred times Jupiter mammon is the real ruler of these states which praise to us stay -at-home Germans their free contentious and which, so far as they are linked with our enemies, talk to us of their aim to liberate us from militarism and monarchy and offer to bless us with their patented Nber- ties.
 Germany declines with thanks the offer to improve us. Though there may be many respects in which we need reforms and are susceptible of improvement, the inner purity and unassailability of our monarchical government raise us high above the pseudo o-democratic-repub repub- lie and cause us to thank God that we remain protected from this all too western progress"

MISSED THE MARK.

Governor Campbell, Of Arizona,
has investigated the !. w. w.
troubles at Bisbee and places the
blame on the citizens OF Bisbee.
The governor in his report says that
the acts of the /. w. w. in Bisbee
were stencil in the nostrils of

report the governor says that the
deportation of the |. w. w. men
without due process of law was
without justification ON the part of
the citizens of Bisbee.
The people of Arizona, by due
process of law elected Campbell
governor. and also elected the other
necessary officers whose sworn duty
Il was to protect the citizens of
Bisbee from acts that were, in his
words. "A stencil in the nostrils of
decent Americans" And when the
duly elected officers neglected or
refused to rid the community of
such a stencil by due process of law.
there was but one OF two courses
left open for the citizens of Bisbee
to follow Either endure the
stencil or dispose Of II by unlawful
means. The criticism of the gov
crnor comes with bad grace from
a guilty official who forced the
citizens of Bisbee to handle such |
a situation in an unlawful manner. |
