to be used for the benefit of victims
Of the recent explosion tragedy in

So German peace negotiations. Both
sides have declared that certain pre-
posale OF the ether side did not meet
with their approval. Russia has said
that the German terms concerning
occupied territories could not be ao-
cepted and German Chancellor Won
Hertlinp announces that the Ger
n1ane cannot move the conference TO
Stockholm, az Russia has suggested.
The Russian position, coupled with
reports that the delegates Of the
central powers, and even Of Germany,
were divided as to the question Of
annsxations, appears the stronger
one, but there 10 no indication that
Germany will rseedo, although IL has
been ruFi1ored that the LEADING cer-
man and Auetrian eraissariaa had rec
turned 10 Brest- Litovsk with new in-
structions.
Before the reiehstaq COMMITTEES

that Germany had 20 deal with i'm

proposed transference to Stockholm

British and French airmsn have
been active, az have those of the
