NOTHING SHALL TURN U. s. ASIDE UNTIL THE WAR IS WON AND GERMANY DEFEATED" PRESIDENT DE- CLARES < PEACE AT THIS TIME OUT OF THE QUES- TION-- DOES NOT FAVOR IMMEDIATE WAR ON TUR- KEY AND BULGARIA -- CLEARLY DEFINES WAR AIMS, AND OBJECTIVE WHICH WHEN ATT TA|NED, WILL MAKE PEACE POSSIBLE.

Washington, Dec Immediate declaration of war against Austria Hungary was recommended to Congress today by President Wilson.
 The President did not however, recommend declara tion of against Turkey and Bulgaria at this time
 Immediate war against Austria, the President told Congress was necessary to meet the anomalous situation that the United States faces in it's with Germany though Austria not her mistress and merely vassal of Germany
 The same logic, he said, would lead to war against Turkey and Bulgaria. but they do not yet he said stand the path of the United States in it's against Prus sian autocracy
 In ringing definite terms the President declared that nothing shall turn the United States aside until the war is and Germany is beaten All talk of peace he pro- nounced out of the question.
 Peace the President declared could come only when the German people make it through rulers the world can tust when they make reparaon of the destruction their present rulers have wrought and when Germany recedes from all the territory acquired by armed conquest.
 The president spoke as fOllows:-
 Gentlemen of the congress: Eight months have elapsed since last had the honor of addressing you They have been months crowded with events of immense and grave significance for shall not undertake to detail to summarize those events The practical particulars of the part have played in them will be laid before you in the reports of the executive departments shall discuss only present out look upon these vast affairs present duties and the m mediate of accomplishing the objects shall hold al ways in view.

CONNECTS ARE CAPTURED
 AFTER ESCAPE

Joliet, H., Dec. 4-Seven of the is convicts who escaped from the state prison here yesterday morning were captured early today by three posses near Morris, in box car on the Chi mago, Rock Island & Pacific railroad. The six others are surrounded and their capture is expected soon.
 The captured convicts offered no re- sistance.

One posse was led by Sheriff Walter Hendrickson of Grundy county, another by George M. School, and the third by prison guards.
 Reports from Morris said that tho passengers from the interurban car reached there about midnight, all se- verely bruised but not seriously in-i jured.

ALL NATIONS OF
 WORLD TO READ WILSON'S SPEECH

Washington, Dec. 4-The interna. tiona1 character of President Will sons address, which will be deliver ed at 12:30 o'clock today, is indicated by the fact that the government al- ready has placed it for simultaneous publication in practically every capi- tai in the world.
 The fact that the government also has taken steps to have the document placed in the hands of Ambassador Francis in Petrograd is taken as an indication that the address will deal also with the situation in Russia.
 Although the address was not en- trusted in advance to American news papers or news distributing associa- tions, 1t already has been placed with the London office of Reuters, the principal European news distribut- ing agency, which in turn is to supply others in Europe. Indirectly the ad- dress will get to Berlin and the other Central power capitals.
 It's worldwide distribution is also evidenced by the fact that it will be available for publication today in China and Japan.

STRIKING EXCERPTS FROM WAR MESSAGE
 MADE BY PRESIDENT

Tt is impossible to apply any standard of justice as long as such forces are unchecked and unde- feated as the present masters of Germany command.
 Our present and immediate task is to win the war and noth- ing shall turn us aside from 1t un- til it is accomplished.
 Those who desire bring about peace before that purpose (the defeat of Germany is achiev- ed, counsel to carry their advice elsewhere. We will not, entertain it. -. ~

 The German power, a. thing without conscience or honor or, capacity for covenanted peace must be crushed =.

Mob Beseiges Fuel Office to GetCOaIC

A mob of more than 200 persons housewives and husbands - besieged the office of the Bridgeport Fuel Com mittee, Room 19, Stratfield building. Main and Golden Hill streets, today and up to noon more than 100 coal cards had been issued to persons claiming to be in want of coal and unable to get 1t from their dealers. Murray Caldwell, secretary, was an exceedingly busy man and was still submerged in work at press hour.
 Plans to further relieve the situa- tion will be made at meeting of the committee this evening when a stand ard price and measure will be estab- ished for street pedlars of coal. Since the shortage of coal became acute, the street pedlar has practically been Ignored by the dealers. who have re- fused to sell them any coal, fearing they would charge excessive prices.
 Chairman Carl F. Siemon believes these street pedlars will bring great relief, especially to the poorer class of people who can't afford to buy whole ton at time. With the assist ance of City Sealer Dennis Kelly, a standard measure will be set, also price per measure, and pedlar vio- lating will be subject to prosecution.

 THOUSANDS OF ENEMIES
 IF WE WAR ON AUSTRIA

These subjects will be forced to ob- tain permits to enter restricted zones or to leave the city. The work of the police and government agents will be more than tripled> as when German aliens were registered 1t was found that there were a few more than 300 in the city. It is also expected Aus tria- a-Hungarian subjects who have taken out first papers will be included in the restrictions.
 It means that several thousand of these subjects, still under the citizen zenship of Austria Hungary, now liv- ing in the vicinity of East Bridgeport intuition plants, will be forced to va cate their homes and move out of the restricted radius. Eventually they may be moved back 100 miles from the coast.

According to the actual census com pilation of aliens completed in May by Assistant Supt. of Police Charles H. Suckley there were 6,045 Austrian subjects in this city, excluding Slo- vacks and Elavonians.
 They were classified as follows! Hungarians, APT; Austrians, 1,144; Lithuanians, 4o1, and Bohemians, 73. It is estimated that since the census was compiled that at least 1000 more than that total have taken abode in the city.
