Foes Chancellor
Urges Wilson to
Halt World War

Copenhagen, Oct. 7, CBy the AS
sOciated Press Prince Maximil-
ian Of Baden, the new German i'm
perial chancellor, announced in the
reichstag Saturday that he had sent
a note through the Swiss govern
ment to President Wilson in which
he had requested MIR. Wilson to
take up the question of bringing
about peace and to communicate
with the other belligerentS regard
ing the subject
Emperor William of Germany is
sued proclamation to his army

to sue for an honorable peace"
Austria also has dispatched a
note to President Wilson asking
him to halt hostiIities and call d
conference to make peace on the
terms he laid down in his three
great speeches on world peace.
The German chancellor told the
reichstag he had addressed his note
to the president OF the United
States because Mr.. Wilson in his
message TO congress on Jan s, 1918,
and in his later proclamat1ons, par
ticularly his New York speech on
Sept. 27. had proposed a program
for a general peace which Germany
and her allies could accept as a ba-

FRENCH SEES FOES
BIDS ATTEMPT TO
EVADE DISASTER

Paris, Oct. (Havas. The re
quest for an armistice and the open
ing of peace parleys by the central
powers is looked upon by the French
press generally as an attempt to
evade certain disaster. It is de-
clared that Germany hopes to con-
clude a peace which will permit
her to exploit the peace treaties of
Brest-LitoYsk and Bucharest and
also to save the Hohenzollern dyn-
asty.
Monday being a two-page day for
the newspaper here, there is little
comment on Prince Maximilian' S
speech printed this morning.
The Figaro, which fairly repre-
sents moderate opinion, finds the
speech inspired by a desire to avoid
such a degree, of defeat as will be
prelude to revenge In his inter
nal policy. Prince Maximilian, the
newspaper says, aims at q liberal
even a proletariat empire"
Raised in the real German
school, Prince Maximilian multi
plies equivocal phrases" continues
the newspaper. THE passage rel
ative to Alssce and Lorraine is the
never of Won Kuahlmann in a
minor note 1t is unnecessary to
show that il the war is stopped now
it would be a German victory. less
grandiose than hoped for, but still
sufficient to leave Europe under
Germany's menace"
