NO SEPARATE PEACE
FOR RUSSIA, DECLARES
ENVOY BAKHMETIEFF

associated Press by q. s. Naval Commun1-
cation SerVice)
WASHING TON, D. c., June "a
No previous incident of the war has
caused so great enthusiasm in con-
gress as did the utterGnre Of Special
Ambassador Bakhmetiefi Of Russia
yesterday. 1t occurred at a joint SEES
sion of senate and house that he WAS
addressing and the legislators went
wild. The ambassador was applaud
ed to the echo and the assemblage
rose to its fee: and gave round after
round Of wild and prnloEs 81 cheers.
The joint session of yesterday was
held to hear from the Russian special
ambassador He pledged new Russia
to devotion to the cause Of democracy
against autocracy, and the climax
came when he said: with all en-
phasis let me say, and let there be
no mistake about it, Russia rejects
any idea of separate peace. She is
in this war for the cause of true
democracy and she is in the war to
stay until the victory is won. A sep
arate peace between the Central
Powers and Russia is an impossible
ity." This was the utterance that
brought members Of both houses up
standing in one of the widest scenes
that there has been in the historic
capitol in many years.
