Reports of startling Developments

fully considered by ali officials OF the

German autocracy, facing disaster on
the west front and besieged by dis

vet more serious problem to so've,
if it prevents the entire collapse OF
the Austrian-Bulgarian allies.
A plea by Austria-Hungary for a
separate peace is considered to be I'M
mincnt. Indications are that such a
plea already has been made secretly
and that it is now being considered
Ibv statesmen of Italy, France, and
England at the joint conference no"

Because of the pressure that BERN
would bring to prevent any sucr
apreement, the negotiations upoT
which separate peace might be oaS
ed must of necessity be kept secre'
until tentative agreement has beer
reached.
Ready to Cede Provinces.
From all indications Austria-Hun
gary, as controlled by the new I'm
peror Charles, would be willing tt
give up the captured italian provinces
of the south and even cede part O
jber most eastern boundary to her en-
emies if there existed a chance O
escaping the war with her mann pos
session intact.
The new Emperor is known to have
been resentful of the growing Ger

With a young mans spirit of indie
