This Point.
OPPOSED TO CONQUESTS

LoSpoN. Sept. 13. - Notwithstanding
that Germany's peace offer has been de-
clincd, Count Won Hertling. the Imperial
German Chancellor. Is convinced that
peace is nearer than is generally sup
posed, according to an address made by
the Chancellor before the trade unionist
leaders in Germany, says a despatch to
the Exchange Telegraph from Copen-
hagen.
The Chancellor declared that both the
German Government and army leaders
desired an understanding and peace
Count Won Hertllng said the Government
and the army leaders were opposed to
all conquests.
AS soon as he was convinced of the
impossbility Of an agreement with the
upper house on the suffrage question. the
Chancellor said. he would dissolve the
lower house.
In his speech at Stuttgart yesterday,
in which he hinted that Germany might
return Belgium without encumbrance
and without reserve providing no other
State was placed more favorably in re-
gard to Belgium than Germany. Fried
rich Won Payer. the German Imperial
Vice Chancellor. also discussed the peace
situation. insisting that Germany would
not submit the peace treaties made with
Russia. the Ukraine and Rumsnia to the
Entente Powers for approval The Vice
Chancellor insisted that the postpone
ment OF peace negotiations, necessitating
another winter of war. would weigh
heavily on all the belligerents and not
on Germany alone. He said;
"Our State debts are everywhere
reaching fantastic heights and every
where We struggle against the encroach-
ments on our personal liberty. All o.
the belligerents of Europe must admit. II
they are not blind, that the longer the
European peoples lacerate each other
the more certainly will the historical
and paramount position OF weakened and
impoverished Europe be lost in favor OF
cleverer and more calculating peoples"

The imperial government neither

CARDS with gravest apprehension the

Hitherto Japan has received no
joint Allied proposal. but il such a
proposal is received it will be con-
sidered most carefully. This will be
especially the case if the Siberian
