LONDON, Jan. s.-The greatest
Significance was attributed to the
speech at the Blowning settlement Of
Minister of Pensions Barnes, urging
an explicit reply by the allies to
President Wilson's plea for submis-
sion Of definite peace terms.
The fact that member Of tho
Lloyd-George ministry publicly an
nounced president Wilson's appeal
for belligerents to state their terms
Of peace, is entitled to all the respect
that can be shown 1t, for many rea-
scns. was takcn as indicating that
the allies reply viii probably set
forth definite list OF the aims for
which the entente is fighting. United
Press dispatches on December ~
sum married. the view of oficialdo,n
then that the reply should make .
listing of the allies purposes.
It is now expected that as re-
suit of the harmonious conference at
Rome, just concluded. the reply will
be forwarded to President Wilson
within the next two or three days.
Those sentences in Barnes speech
which attracted most attention Were:

done in the way of making our gen
eral terms or the general objects for
which we are in this war, more
widely known tc the American peo-
pie. We should accept the invitation
Of the American president, to tell
him, at any rate. what our terms or
objects are. Whether they should be
made public is another matter.
"The president should be assured
that this country is not one to smash
the Germans, Germany, or anyone or
anything except military power and
military pride. l think he may be
told Of our negative objects and as
sured that we have no idea in this
war of increasing our territory or
our power or anything of the kind"

 "Oh! What happiness 1t will be-" the letter said. Do call me up as soon as you know anything definite. Darlng, I am so excited and so anxious can hardly breathe. I have prayed all day for you and I am sure God cannot refuse"
 In 8 letter written July 25, 1913, Mrs. DeSauNes said:
 T have had @ great big heartache ever since you\told me to go to your room,' and I had made up my mind that I would not write to you until you write to me or else spoke one word through the phone, but I have relented and instead am going to tell you how harsh and unkind you were. l did not think that ever in your life, even if you lived to be 1OOs you would have ordered me out of your room ?'-e gone away without saying goodbye and where you were going to stay that-after a thousand and one pro- fessions of love-well I suppose every ones ideals are shattered and yours, probably, also, although I have tried not to shatter yours, even when things did seem so hard"
 Reading of the letters occupied nearly 45 minutes. Mrs, DeSaulles sat self-constrained and but with dreary gaze while they were being read.
 She identified four checks drawn on her account and made payable to
 cash all four having endorsements of John l.. DeSaulles. They were dated August 2S. September 29, Octo- Der "A and December g, 1913, and were for $15,O00. $500 $2,OOO and $1,000, respectively.

 Petrograd, Nov 24-Proclamations have been posted alleging that the Bourgeoise is blocking efforts to pro- vision the army and to provide funds for the support of the government.

 The committee on the Salvation of Russia in a proclamation declares that the last steps of Bolsheviki is final ruin of Russia. It says:
 The Allies will consider all Rus- sians traitors. Without resources Russia will be a prey to any one who chooses to pluck her. Abandoned, 1t will be at the mercy of Germany and will have to beg on her knees for clemency. This is where Lenine and Trotzky are leading.'
