SN|P|NC AT BORDER
 PATROLS MUST STOP
Republican A. p. Leased Wire1

FL PASO, Tex, Fep. z3.-Unless sniping by federal troops at American border patrols ceases at once retalia- tory measures will be carried out and United States troops will be ordered to cross the line and exterminate the snipers who have been firing on Amer ican patrols recently, it became known here tonight following the shooting of Captain Joseph N. Marx, of the bor- der patrol this afternoon.
 Captain Marx was riding along the border in the eastern suburbs of the city when he inadvertently crossed the boundary line. which was not clearly defined at that point. Mexican snip CTS opened fire on the patrol party at once. Captain Marx was shot from his horse and his mount wounded so badly it had to be killed. The captain was rushed to the base hospital with a bullet wound in his right leg having been brought back across the line by his men.
 An enlisted man was seen to fall when the snipers fired but investiga- tion proved he was only thrown from his horse. The American patrol re- turned the fire but it was not known whether or not any one was hit. Snipers have been busy recently along the river east of Fl Paso. A cav airy horse was bit near Soc6rro Thursday and snipers were responsible | for volley fired at another patrol "Wednesday near there.

 LONDON, Feb. 22.-A Russian wire less government statement received here tonight says:
 "Germany will renew the peace nego- tiations and will conclude peace on the following conditions:
 Both to declare the war ended.
 "AII regions west of the line indi cated at Brest- litovsk to the Russian delegation, which formerly belonged to Russia, to be no longer under the ter ritorial protection of Russia.
 'In the region of Dvnsk this line must be advanced to the eastern front fer of CourIand.
 "The former attachment of these re- gions to the Russian state must in no case involve for them obligations to- ward Russia. Russia renounces every claim to intervene in the internal af fairs of those regions.
 "Germany and Austria Hungary have the intention to define further the fate of these regions in agreement with their populations.
 "Germany is ready, after the com pIetion of Russian demobiization to evacuate the regions which are east of the above line. So far as it is not stated otherwies, liVonia and Esthonia must immediately be cleared of Russian troops and red guards.

 DELAY NOT ADVANCE
Republican A.sP. Leased WireJ

LONDON, Feb. 2S,-The Germans. according to the latest dispatches from Petrograd, some of which were sent from there last night, are meet ing with little or no opposition in their newest invasion of Russia, whose disorganized and scattered army IS taking no notice of the appeal of the Bolsheviki to engage in guerilla war fare.
 Livenia is completely overrun with the German armies, and the Germans are not far from the outskirts of the naval base of Reval, the evacuation of which could hardly be completed. as Petrograd dispatches say the soldiers refused to assist in the work. At Minsk the Germans are astride one of the main routes to Moscow, while further south Austrians and Uk- ranians are on their way to Kiev. Until the Ukrainian peace, these Uk- rainian soldiers were prisoners of war, but have since been released and armed by the central powers.
 Meanwhile, the helpless Bolsheviki are publishing appeals to the people to resist the invaders and there is talk at Petrograd of convoking the constituent assembly.
 Some of the agency headquarters says that units of the German army are refusing to participate in the in vasion while disorders have been ob- served among the Austrians.

Laid up with a severe attack of grippe since his return from Wash ington last Tuesday, Dwight B. Heard yesterday made the following state ment regarding his two weeks work in Washington:
 Washington is naturally in more or less of a state of turmoil. When one realizes that the city's population is twice what it was year ago; that tens of thousands of government em- ployes have been added to the pay roll; that thousands of dollar a year men have volunteered for government service, most of them of trained ef- ficiency. and that in their efforts to make their efficiency count, some dis satisfaction among bureaucrats has resulted; when one realizes that great new administrative bureaus have been created in Aladdin-like fashion, such as the Food Administration, with it's eighteen hundred employees; when We see small bureaus like the Signal Corps, which in cooperation with MT. Howard Coffin of the Aircraft Board is in charge of our tremendous rational program for air conquest enormously eXpanded one does not wonder that there is considerable con- fusion, overlapping and wasted en- ergy. This is bound to come when a great, unprepared country like ours suddenly finds itself engaged in this grim war and. begins to realize that the burden of the war is more and more on the shoulders of America.
 A Better Day.
 "The hopeful thing about the situa-
Arizona republican., 1918-02-24

tion> is that there is developing in Washington very rapidly a new spirit of efficient service. Better co-opera- tion between the old departments is now evident, and increasing team play must, and 1 believe will, continue.
 ''The m inspiring thing in Wash ington the young men in the khaki, wa ns' to get their allotments to go acl and both men and of ficers are nibits of which we cal be mighty ud.
 'Washir Hn is also filled with large nuIn ITS of foreign officers, detailed here to assist the govern ment in various branches of training work; the Italians and English largely being here to assist in training our men for work in the air. In fact. the daily airplane flights over Wash ington by the English fliers are now one of the great sights of the capital.
 My work in Washington was quite varied. On behalf of the Council Of Defense, one problem being to work out some plan, with the cooperation of the Department of Labor, in line with the policy initiated last year to bring in additional labor from Mex ico to supply the rapidly increasing need of labor in connection with the development of the long fiber cotton industry; another the adjustment of the long standing differences between the Casa Grande and Florence water

WHEAT PRICE TO REMAIN SAME AS
 SET AT PRESENT
Chicago Figure IS $2.2C
 With Lesser Amounts as West Is Approached; The
 President Issues Notice
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel


 WASHINGTON, Feb. 23.-A price of $2.20 a bushel-the same as for last years crop-was fixed by President Wilson tonight for the coming seasons wheat yield. The price is for No. 1 northern spring wheat at Chicago, with a scale of differentials for other markets.
 The differentials differ to a slight extent from those now operative and range from minimum of 32 to max mum of SIPS.
 In fixing a price now for the new crop, which will not be harvested until June, the president was believed to have two objects in view. The first came to halt legislation pending in congress to fix prices at from $2.25 to s3, and the other was to stimulate spring planting.
 The introduction of price-raising bills had begun to check the flow of wheat to market and food administra- tion officials feared that mills soon would have to close. Hoping the legis- lation would pass. farmers, it is de- clared, have been refusing to sell at the present price of $2.2O. In enacting the food control law congress put a guaranteed price of $2 on next seasons
  minimum price.
 Food administration officials have declared that if the bills passed the government would be forced to raise present prices to the new levels and that to do so would upset the food ad- ministration's flour and bread pro- gram.
 Prices as Fixed. On the basis of No. 1 northern spring wheat and equivalents, the presiden fixed the prices as follows:
 Chicago, $2.20 Omaha, $2.15; Kansa: | City. $2.15 St. Louis, S21S; Galveston $2.20; New Orleans, $2.20; Fort Worth | Texas, $2.09; Oklahoma City, $2.05 1 Wichita, Kas., s2.0S
 The equivalents of No. northern tt l which the same price applies are No. hard winter, No. 1 red winter, No. Durum and No. l hard white Tn wheat must be harvested in the Unite, States during 1918 and sold in the mar ket before June l, 1919. The presi dents proclamation states that the ac

 Russia should agree not to spread revolutionary propaganda in the cen tral empires.
 The commercial treaty which was abrogated at the beginning of the war should be reconstituted and extended thirty years.
 Reports reaching Petrograd are to the effect that the newest German de- mands include the policing of all principal cities of Russia
 The Bolsheviki authorities are ready to accept the peace terms originally outlined by the central powers and also to accede to the demand that Russia evacuate the small portions If Austrian territory still held, as well as Armenian and all other territory captured from Turkey.
