PEACE OFFER TO POPE
Baron Burian Sends Aus trian Note to Apostolic
 Nuncio. WANTS TEXT GIVEN
 TO HIS HOLINESS Confidently Hopes He Will sympathize and Give
 Moral Support.

Amsterdam, Sept. 17-Baron Burian, the Austro-Hungarian foreign minister, on Sept. 14, according to a Vienna dispatch, sent a note to the Apostolic Nuncio. at Vienna, Monsignor di Bonzono, saying his govern ment had decided to propose a peace conference and urging the Vatican to support it,
 The note follows:
 After four years of unheard of struggle and gigantic sacrifices the battle which has been devastating Europe has not been able to bring about a decision. Animated by a spirit of reconciliation which already has been expressed in its note of December 12, 1916, the AIstro-Hun- garian government has decided to ap- proach all belligerent states and in vite them to pave the way to peace which will be honorable for all par ties by a confidential and unbinding exchange of thoughts.
 Full of gratitude the Austro- Hun garian government hereby remembers that touching appeal which His Holi- ness, the Pope, sent to all belligerents last year, with the expectation that they seek an understanding and live again in brotherhood. Convinced that the Holy Father today also longs that suffering mankind soon will again en- joy the blessings of peace, we conf1- dently hope he will sympathize with our note and support it with the moral influence which is recognized all over the world.
 Animated by this thought, I re- quest our Excellency to submit the enclosed text of the note to His Holi- ness"
 Washington, Sept. 1.-The answer of the United States to the peace pro posal advanced by Austria Hungary ---an unconditional rejection--was before the world today. The reply is sued by Secretary Lansing last night upon authorization by President Will son almosct immediately upon deliv- cry of the Austrian communication by the Swedish minister speaks for all the nations arrayed against the Central Powers in the belief of officials today.
 The text of the answer constitutes one of the shortest important notes recorded in American diplomatic his tory After stating that Tine United States feels that there is only one re- | ply which it can make to the sugges- tion of the Imperial AustrianHunga- rian government" the President sets forth the position of the U. S. govern ment in a single sentence, as follows: Tt has repeatedly and with entire candor stated the terms upon which the United States would consider peace and can and will entertain no proposal for peace upon matter con- eerning which it has made it's position and purpose so plain"
 | With the first of the expected new series of peace bids of the Central Powers having met a fiat rejection the rest of the powers are to be heard from.
