ALLIES DON'T THINK
PEACE POSSIBLE NOW
Supplementary Reply to Wilson Sets
Forth Promise Of Long War.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 1.-THE entente
allies, in a note addressed by Arthur
Balfour, British foreign minister. to
Ambassador SpringRice, and dellV-
cred today to the State department
amplifv their reply to President Will
sons peace note by explaining in de-
tail why they believe it impossible at
present to attain a peace which VII!
assure them such guarantees as they
consider essential The note also ex-
plains why the allies demand the eA-
pulsion of Turkey from Europe; res
toration of AIsace-Lorraine to france,
of Italia Irredenta to Italy and the
other territorial changes set forth.
Those who think the future peace
of the world may be- insured by inter-
national treaties and international
laws. the note says, have Ill learned
the lessons taught by recent history
After charging that German influence
in Turkey had resulted in conditions
as barbarous and more aggressive than
were known under Sultan Abdul
Hamid, and that had been shown
Germany can not be expected to re-
spect treaty obligations, Mr. Balfour
says:
$50 long as. Germany remains the
Germany which without a shadow OF
justification, overran and barbarously
i'll treated a country it was pledged TO
defend, no State can regard its rights
as secure if they have no better pro-
lection than a solemn treaty.
Not Only Belgium.
Asserting that Belgium was not
Germany's only victim, and that "neu-
trails were invited to note outrages
which accompanied its conquest the
note recites the "reign Of terror" at
tendant upon Germany's method OF
warfare, and in that connection says:
"The war staffs Of the central pow
ers are we'll content to horrify the
world if at the same time they can
terrorize it."
The people of Great Britain. Mr..
Balfour says, share President Wilson 5
desire for peace. but do not believe it
can be durable unless based on the
success of the allied cause. Such a
peace. it is argued, can not be ex-
pected unless these three conditions
are fulfilled:
Existing causes OF international
unrest shall BE- as far as possible re-
moved or weakened: the aggressive
aims and the unscrupulous methods
of the central powers shenld fall into
disrenute among their own peoples;
and. finally. that behind internationa:
law and behind all treaty arrange
ments for preventing or limiting hos
tilities some form Of international
sanction should be devised which
would give cause to the hardest ag-
gressor.
It is recognized that the conditions
NAV be difficult of fulflllment, but the
belief is expressed that they are in
general harmony with President Will
sons ideas.
Only Sure Peace.
The note declares confidence that
so far as Europe III concerned, none
of the conditions can be satisfied,
even imperfectly. unless peace is Sc
cured on the general lines indicated
by the allies joint note.

ATHLETES REPLY
TO CALL TO ARMS
Ted Meredith and Don Lippin-
colt Volunteer for Avia-
ton Corps.
ovERToN IN ARTILLERY

New York, April 1.-The call to
arms has found the men who won
renown in amateur sport ready to do
their bit for their country. From
all parts of the United States come
reports of sportsmen who have made
known their willingness to give up
everything else and serve the coun-
try in the threatened strife with Ger
many. Locally, all of the splendid
athletes that are members of the
Seventy-frst regiment are sworn into
the federal service, and the crack
runners who wear the colors of the
Second battalion, N. NJ, have long
been doing guard duty on and about
the local bridges.
From Philadelphia comes the news
that Ted Meredith and Don Lippin-
colt, the University of Pennsylvania
Olympic sprinters, have volunteered
for the aviation service if war comes.
Four of Yale's finest track men are
already on their way to Florida to
start training for the air service
Gates, the hammer thrower and 1918
foot ball captain; Farwell the star
hurdler; Stewart, the Splinter, and
McLush, the pole vaulter, are speed
ing southwark on their preparedness
mission. Johnny Overton, the great
est distance man that ever sported
the blue of Old Eli, stands ready to
answer the first call as member of
the Yale field artillery, in which there
are dozens of athletes less prominent
but~just as eager to serve the flag
as is the middle distance and cross
country champion. l
John Harvard is furnishing his
quota, too. On the train that is bear
ing the Yale men to Miami, Fla. is
Westmore Wilcox, one Of the fastest
quarter milers that ever won a race
fo- the Crimson, and a general favor
lite to win the intercollegiate Ameri-
can Amateur Athletic associations
championship in May. Princeton is
preparing also, and is already rep
resented in the reserve aviation corps
by one of the most famous athletes
in the college world. HOBBY Baker.
Baker has been training for nearly
year and will surely draw down a
commission as soon as state of
war is declared
Eddie Casey, Harvards great half
back, and his roommate, Bill Swart,
a track man, will enter an aviation
school in Virginia at the outbreak of
war. while Johnny Knowles. the
crack base ball player is on his way
20 Florida with Wilcox and the
Yaic men. These are just few of
the thousands of amateur sportsmen
who stand ready to follow the ex-
ample OF Jean Bouin, the great
French runner, who gave his life
for France in the first month of the
war, and whose example will stand
as a model for the athletic youth o.
all nations for decades to conc.

DENNISON WILLING
TO RACE HIS HORSE
Omaha Man Ready to Match
R. O. H. Against Heir
Reaper for $1,000.
SPEEDWAY OFFERS PURSE
BY RUSSELL PHELPS.

A match race between the two
fastest trotters in Nebraska will prob
ably be one of the features of the
Omaha Driving clubs Great Western
circuit meeting next August. In this
race it is planned to match R. c. H.,
a famous trotter in the Tom Denni-
son string, against Heir Reaper,
holder of the state record, owned by
F. c. Warren, the Shelton, Neb.,
horseman.
If Mr.. Dcnnison's proposition, sub
mitted to Mr.. Warren yesterday, is
accepted, pair of the states fastest
harness horses will battle for purse
of $1,000. A few weeks ago the Shell
ton horseman hurled a def at Mr..
Dennison, offering TO race Heir
Reaper against R. c. H. for a $1,000
side bet. The Omaha racing man ex-
pressed willingness to have his star
tangle with the state champ at the
meeting offering the best inducement.
Lincoln state fair harness racing Of
fcials were sounded and they offered
to hang up a $500 purse for the title.
Otis M. Smith, secretary of the driv-
ing club, and other local horsemen
then bid in with better inducements
and a $500 purse, for a match race
at the August meeting.
Expected To Accept.
Mr.. Dennison. wrote Mr.. Warren,
stating the terms and agreeing to a
$1,000 side bet, winner take all, which
will make it most attractive race
and good feature for the Great
Western meeting. 1t is understood
that the horseman out in the state
will accept this proposition.
Keen rivalry exists between the
owners of these two royal trotters-
Heir Reaper and R. c. Fl. If it were
not for the fact that, East Omaha
Speedway is in Iowa and not Ne
braska, R. c. Fl. would be the UNI
disputed state champion. Mr.. Denni-
sons animal went in 2:1lM at the
Great Western circuit races here last
fall-a half second faster than Heir
Reaper's mark of 2:llM made at FIRE.
mont, which is the state record. Both
horses are possessed Of rare class and
are animals with the reputation of
giving fans their moneys worth. 1t
is known that much money would be
bet on the result of match race be-
tween R. c. H. and Heir Reaper.

SPRING PLAYS HER
FRANKS ON ROURKE
Diamond Is Sea of Mud and
Conflict With Kansas City
Is Called Off.
PLAY THIS AFTERNOON

Gentle spring, working in cahoots
with the weather man, got in her ne
farious work with a vengeance yes
terday with the result that the con-
nct scheduled for Rourke park be-
tween Pas hopefuls and the Kansas
City American association club was
called off.
When the Kaws arrived in our
midst yesterday morning it was snow
ing or raining or both and the dia-
mond was sea of water and mud.
So all the athletes could do yester-
day afternoon when they should have
been performing for the plaudits of
the multitude was shoot Kelly pool or
lamp Theda Bara in action.
If the weather clears today, how
ever the Rourkes will get an oppor-
tunity to test their skill against the
Kay See cvrew. Brother Dave has
the gasoline crew ready for charge
and if the elements suspend their
pranks and the sun comes out the
crew promises to have the diamond
in good shape for play.
Omaha fans were greatly disap-
pointed yesterday because Kansas
City looks like the goods in the AS
ISOLATION this year. Some of the fans
predict a pennant for the show-me
aggregation. .
Camel Is Leader.
John Camel, former Federal league
pilot, is leading the Missourians. He
has assembled bunch Of ex-major
leaguers who look like the goods.
At first he has Mollwitz, who only
lost out at Cincinnati, because he had
to compete with Hal Chase. Jimmy
Viox, team-llate of Hans Wagner for
several years, is at second. Mulligan
and Phelan, former Cubs, fill short
and third respectively. The outfeld
consists Of Becker, Good and Lelivelt.
All except Lelivelt just returned this
spring after long careers in the
majors.
Chalmers and McQuillan, members
of the championship Philadelphia
team of 1915, are members of the
hurting corps. Crutcher, once with
St, Joseph and later with the Braves,
is another. ,
It's a pretty slick looking outfit
Camel has gathered together, and if
the game is played today Omaha fans
are likely to see some bits of big
league ball. The game will start at
3 o'clock
Currie and Merz to Hurl.
Murphy Currie and Otto Merz will
probably do the hurting for the
Rourkes today.
Pa Rourke was in Kansas City yes
terday for a conference with John
McGraw. He is expected home Mon
day and he probably will bring a
couple of athletes, presents from
Muggsy, with him.
Monday the Milwaukee club plays
the Rourkes in Omaha.

MUCH NEW BLOOD
IN WESTERN LOOP
Omaha Has as Many Veterans
as Any, and Half Of the
Rourkes Are Gone.
JOPLIN is A MYSTERY

New blood will be seen throughout
the Western league this year. The
Western has never been a league OF
veterans, but this year it seems more
than ever that the old-timers have
passed on their way. Practically every
club in the loop will contain more
new faces than old.
Omaha will carry as many veterans
as any club and half OF the Rourkes
are gone. Krug, Burg, Irelan, Smith,
Forsythe, Merz O'Toole and the
Thompsons are the vets who remain
in Omaha, while Currie, Barham,
Brottem, Henning, Brokaw, Watson
and Chemeler are new men. And
Rourke has couple OF more to dig
up. too.
The Denver club has been consid-
erably rebuilt In the inheld Kelleher
alone remains. Shields and Reed have
been canned and Dyer went up to
Detroit. Mills is the new Grizzly first
sacker, Wuffli succeeded Reed at Sec
ond and Scgrist Dyer at third. Boehl-
cr, Smithson and Mccoy are new
hurlcrs IN the mile high city.
Wichita All New.
Wichita is almost all new. Out
folders Coy and Fox, Inhelders Het-
ling and Rapps and Pitchers Davis
and koestner are the only veterans
Isbell has retained. He transplanted
Tex Jones and Baker from Des
Moines, however.
Lincoln has kept few Of the old
timers. Carlisle, Lober Rohrer, East,
Gregory, Halla and Smith were all
members OF the squad which gave
Omaha so much trouble in 1916.
St. Joseph has been strengthened
greatly by acquisitions. Holland had a
weak team last year and is only
keeping the cream. He has filed all
the holes with new men. and, accord
ing to the dope, intends to be in the
race.
Holly, the new manager at Sioux
City, has picked up bunch Of new
chaps to fill the holes of last year.
He has kept quite few Of the vets,
though.
Hard to Recognize.
Des Moincs will be hard to rccog-
nize with Tex Jones, Eddie Hahn,
Bruce Hartford Claude Thomas,

Big WRESTLING GO \
JUST ONE DAY OFF
Thirty.Six More Hours Before
Stecher and Caddock Face
Each Other.
MANY FROM OUT OF TOWN

Omaha will be a synosure OF all
eyes tomorrow night when Joe
Stecher and Earl Caddock climb be-
tween the ropes OF the wrestling ring
at the Municipal Auditorium to clash
for the mat supremacy Of Nebraska
and Iowa and the forty-six other
commonwealth of these United
States OF America.
Probably no match since Joe
Stecher first jumped into fame by
Aattening Charley Cutler at Rourke
park two years ago has created the
widespread interest the Stecher-C Cad
dock cash tomorrow night has created.
Neither Stecher nor Caddock have
ever had their shoulders touched to
the mat since entering the profess
sional ranks. Both are sensational
young wrestlers who have swept all
before them and whichever one loses
will have the first black mark placed
opposite his name on the records.
Stecher, of course, is the ruling
favorite. He always ranks the
favorite in Nebraska. Joe will have
an advantage of some ten or perhaps
fifteen pounds in weight over his ad-
versary and has had, even though
five years younger. more experience.
And Omaha has seen Joe in action
several times, while Caddock will
make his first appearance in this city
when he tackles the champion.
Iowa Backs Caddock.
While Stecher carries the con-
fdence of Nebraska, Caddock will in
wade Omaha with the full support of
all Iowa. Hawkeye wrestling fans
are heralded Caddock as a new con-
querer, the man to bring back to Iowa
the wrestling crown which that state
owned until Frank Gotch quit the mat
game. Hundreds of Iowans are COM
ing to the match to give their favorite
their support.
Both wrestlers have been training
faithfully for this go. Stecher, i'm
mediately upon his return from the
coast last month, opened his camp at
Dodge and began working out daily.
He is said to be in as good condition
as he ever was and that means he is
as near perfect as possible.
Caddock. has been training at the
Chicago Athletic club. There he has
been received the expert advice and
coaching of Frank Gotch, the former
champ, Charley Cutler, who was one
of the first to learn the terrors of the
scissors hold, Ben Reuben, who is a
claimant to the middleweight cham
pionship, and others. Like Stecher,
the Iowa gladiator is said to be in the
proverbial pink and ready to enter a
gruelling battle.
One of the unusual features of the
approaching tangle is that over 50 per
cent Of the spectators will be from
out Of town. When seats were placed
on sale $4,000 were already taken by
mail orders from interested fans in
nearby cities. Fully $500 worth of
the tickets, and perhaps more, have
been sold outside the city. If the
house totals $4,000, at least, 50 per
cent of those in the Auditorium will
be residents of other places. y
Governors Attend.
Among the distinguished visitors
who will be at the ringside are Gov
errors Neville and Harding Of Ne
braska and Iowa, respectively. They
will be on hand to urge the repre-
sentatives of their respective states
on to victory.
Severl preliminaries have been ar
ranged to make the evenings card
good one. .r..
