Press Not Optimistic.

London Feb. l3.-The correspondent
at Geneva Of The Daily Express tele-
graphs:
"News that reached here via the
Tyrolcse frontier shows that the Wen
nese went mad with Joy when they
heard Of the Ukraine peace. The city
was soon bright with flags and bust
ness came to d standstill Crowds in
yaded the streets, women crying for
Joy and men embracing one another
Special editions Of the newspapers an
nouncing the news in few lines were
sold OUT Immediately. The people cheered
for the Emperor and Count Czernin, and
shouted: Now we shall have plenty of
food. The school children were sent
home for holiday"
All the Vienna newspapers consider
the Brest-Ljtovsk peace a diplomatic
and economic victory, and also a great
blow TO the Allies.
The news was welcomed with the
same Joy at Budapest, Prague, and Inns
bruck, though the people were less de-
monstrative than the Viennese.

Lloyd George Tells Parliament Al
lies Must Concentrate to Meet
Impending Blow"
InNnnN. Enn. Ii

Addressing the House of Commons yes
terday afternoon at its reassembling
after prorogation last week, Premier
Lloyd George expressed his conviction
that, in view of the uncompromising
, attitude of the Central Powers as shown
in the recent speeches of the German
chancellor and the Austro-Hungarian
foreign minister, and the menace of
enemy renforcements at the western
front, it was the duty of Great Britain
10 continue preparations to establish
international justice by force of arms.
He said he regarded il as essential
that the Allies, including the Unitod
States, should treat their armies as one to
meet the blow which was impending.
The premier said he had read with
profound disappointment the replies
given to President Wilson and to tho
declarations of the British government
by Count Won Hertling and Count
Czernin, and added that it was per-
fcctly true that, as regarded the tone,
there was a great deal of difference be-
tween the two speeches, and he wished
he could believe there was difference
in substance, but when there was Il
question of considering the real de
mands Of the Allies, he said, Count
CzeTnln was adamant.
He remarked that he would like any
m1mbcr 10 point out anything IN the
speeches Of Count Czernin or Count Won
llertling which could possibly be re-
gardod rs proof that the Central Pow
ers we're prepared to make peace on
terms which could be regarded as just
and reasonal le
Germanys s action regarding Russia he
said, proved that her declaration re-
garilng no annexations had no real
meaning. No answer had been given
regarding Belgium that could be re-
garded rs satisfactory, he declared, no
answer hsd teen given regarding Po-
lard or France, with her legitimate
claims for the restoration of her lost
provinces; not word had been said
about the thousands of the Italian race
and tongue now under the Austrian
yoke.
Until there was some Eetter proof
than has ! cen provided in the speeches
to which nc referred that the Central
Powers We're prepared TO consider the
aim and ideals for which the Allies were
ghting. said MIR Lloyd George, it
would be the nation $ Fegrettable duty
to 20 on and make preparations ncces-

British Charge on Turks In Palestine
Desperate, But Wins.

London, Feb. 2.-How British cavalry
charged and captured three Turkish bat
terles and thus opened the way 10 JerrI-
salem, is told in letter from British
officer.
't was the first time the brigade had
used their swords" he saws. "When
''Chargel' sounded | think every man
went stark mad Guns we're belching
their shells at us in one sheet of flame, and
bullets by thousands swept past, but not
one man seemed To get hit as on we went,
with drawn swords flashing in the sun,
IN long straight line; horses going like
mad and everyone shouting like fury.
Now we could sec some of our pals falling,
yet straight Mt the guns we charged.
As we came up with the first line of
protecting infantry the enemy put up
their hands as they stood in the trenches,
so we jumped them and were charging
at the second line when the first line
thought better OF their surrender and
fired at us from behind. Their artillery
and machine guns kept firing at us up to
the moment we reached them with the
sword II seems marvellous that any Of
us escaped alive, but though our ranks
were thinned we took the positions, and
all the guns and ammunltion."
