AUSTRIA TO
MAKE PEACE
Reported as on the Verge of
an Agreement with
Russia
so DECLARES A
BELGIAN SOCIALIST
Peace, but by the Sword, De-
clares the French
Premier

Peace and rumors of peace will moi
down. Austria is about TO reach an un
derstanding with Russia, according to q
statement credited to NJ. Huysman, Bel
gian secretary of the international So
cialist conference. The report comes in
the form of an interview with a large
bag of salt. On the other hand the
French premier declares that France can
not make peace on any but basis of
victory. Agreement on the situation as
it stands to-day would mean ruin
for France and prosperity for Germany,
The German chancellor asserts that there
are no signs of peace, but that if the
German people only hang on long enough
there may come crack in the determi-
nation of the enemy to overcome the
Teuton nation. That the German gov
eminent was in possession of the Aus
trian utimatum fourteen hours before it
was sent to Belgrade is confirmed by
Washington, which gives out the addi-
tional interesting conformation that
joint Teuton war council was held July
5, 1914, when it was decided to plunge
Europe into war. The first intimation of
this fact was contained few days ago
in a speech dispatch in these columns.

charges will result in a necessity for ex-
aiming four registrants to produce one
soldier" said Secretary Baker, cit is APP
parent the system must be capable of
examining five million men during the
year. For this task the organization i'm
cludes a personnel of more than $4,000
persons"

indianapolis, Aug. 4.--The idea of init
nations of attempts to call out the
United Mine Workers of America should
the government not intervene in behalf
of Industrial Workers of the World in
labor disputes in certain sections of the

leading and incorrect yesterday by VIII

United Mine Workers, when he was told
of the Washington despatch concerning
possible drastic action by the govern
ment in the labor troubles in the South
west.
Mr. Green had made public kilograms
he sent TO President Wilson and others
protesting against the deportation of
members Of the United Mine Workers
At the same time he specifically stated
his protest was not because of any action
taken regarding the industrial workers
but because of alleged deportation of
United Mine Workers from tent colony
at Gallup n. NJ.
