HUN SPY CAUGHT
 FIRING MAGAZINE
Walter Spoerman Grabbed While At tempting to Destroy Aviation
 Plant at Norfolk

NORFOLK, Va. Jan. 15.-Walter Spoerman. a German spy wearing the uniform of the American army, was caught last night in the act of setting fire to the oil magazine of the govern ment aviation station here. Papers taken from his person show that he was a German agent in charge of var ious plots to destroy American muni- tion and shipping plants and that he had paid out $s0,000 to German spies working under the direction of Count Bernstorff, when the latter was Ger man ambassador to the United States.
 Spoerman will undoubtedly be shot. He is we'll known in Norfolk and has an excellent character here. The pap CTS taken from him show, with other evidence. that plans were nearly per fected for extensive operations in des- troying war equipment of all kinds.

LITTLE PROSPECT
 FOR EARLY PEACE
Papal Nuncios In Germany and Aus tria Report to Vatican That
 War is Still Favored

ROME. Jan. 15.--Pessimistic re- ports on possibilities of early peace have been received at the Vatican from the papal nuncios in Germany and Austria have been instructed by the pope to ascertain the chances for cessation of hostilities on basis satisfactory to the central powers.
 The papal representatives say that peace is less favored in Germany and Austria because of the belief there that their prospects for victory are improving. This has placed the mili- tary party in the ascendency in both nations and at this time no peace terms would be acceptable unless dic- tated by the junkers.

DOES NOT FAVOR
 HUN PEACE MOVE
cere and Attitude is Unchanged on Important Questions.

WASHINGTON. D. C.. Jan. b. The conditions surrounding Count Czernin's proposals for basis of peace cause officials here to feel ap- prehension regarding their sincerity. There is a great disposition to feel that the object of the German dele gates is to prOtract the negotiations as long as possible without any expec- tation of an immediate peace agree ment with the double purpose of lead ing the German people to believe their government really is desirous of mak ing peace and shifting the burden of continuing the war upon the enemy. One condition regarded as impossible for the present at least is that the adherence of all belligerents must be secured to the peace the Germans are trying to make with Russia before it can become effective. This is accom- panied by demand for the return of the German colonies now in the pos session of Russias allies.
 It can be stated authoritatively that the position of the American govern ment has not changed in any respect with regard to it's determination to enter into no agreement with gov ernment which does not represent the free will of the governed people. This would dispose of any hope the Ger mans might have that America would enter the conference. As for the Ger man colonies Lloyd George declared that was subject for the peace con- ference.
 No provision is made in Count Czernin's terms for the return to France of Alsace-Lorraine, which is regarded here as a condition that must be met as preliminary to any peace agreement.
 In the light of the extraordinary ef- forts Germany has been making to rid those provinces of French inhabi- tants it is believed here that Germany may propose a plebescite of inhabi- tants; relying upon the vote of Ger man soldiers and the imported Ger man population. but such proposal probably would be rejected by the United States and her co-belligerents.
 Apparently Belgium is promised freedom by Count Czernin if all the other German demands are met. But officials note there is 8 reservation. most inseparable from German dAplo- macy. in the shape of guarantees" which Germany requires to insure the of all of these complicated factors of the peace treaty. The Ger man insistence that the pledge to re- store the political independence of countries occupied by the central powers shall not apply to nationali- ties which did not previously enjoy independence. is regarded as aimed al, the projected Polish state.

RUSSIA POISONED BY HUN INFLUENCE
John F. Stevens Says German Propa- ganda and Labor Agitators
 Have Produced Chaos.

John F. Stevens, the eminent engi- neer. who is working in Russia to put the railroads of that country on an effective basis, recently visited Tokyo, and while there made the following statements, according to press dis patches
 The Russian situation is very i'm portant as it involves the return of 1 .5OO.OU0 German and Austrian ef fectives and gives unlimited possibil- ities to the German organization of Russia's resources and man power.
 Russia at present presents a com pletely chaotic condition. permeated hy the most clever German propagan- da. Nevertheless, I believe the bet ter judgment of the mass of the peo- pie will be asserted and Germany will not succeed in forcing d separate peace. Such a peace cannot be con cludrd if the allies promptly give their theory and suggestions.
 Maximalists Very Strong.
 The Maximalists in control now are very strong: ill fact are much stronger than are generally credited. Tn any future reorganization they must he considered and handled with caution.
 The chaos is most evident in the manufactories and railway shops where the workmen's and soldiers delegates are now in absolute control. They work or not as they please. and everywhere wOrkmen may be seen loafing. Women are doing much of the work in the shops along the rail- way tracks and in the fields and even acting as brskesmep. Where one woman is working 500 men are loaf. ing.
 "A hundred thousand soldiers are Crowding the stations. attempting the management of the trains and sup porting themselves on a small daily allowance to which they add by thiev- cry and smuggling

 Coal and Food Shortage.
 The government evidently is un able to commander food and fam inc threatens for which the peasants are largely responsible. There is also a coal famine and the production is only one-third of normal because the miners are refusing to work.
 "At Vladivostok the supplies of all kinds are carefully guarded. The port authorities have erected large and there is not much de terioration of the supplies. The Bol sheviki are in possession and the sol diers maintain order but the laborers are uneasy at the prospect.
 siberia is not so much disturbed as Russia, and it is the peoples desire to support any government appearing stable. The uncertainty in Russia rests in the vast preponderance of the 130, 100000 persons in the peas ant class. If Germany Is allowed to finance and advise them the situation Is lost
