.WiEson VIII Make Effort to
: Bring Order Out of Chaos
Now Exisfong in Land of
Slavs; Plans Message.

WASHINGTON, March 1e.-First in
timations from official sources that
President Wilson possibly might soon
make a statement bearing on the Rus
sian debate came today.
Heretofore, statements that the pres
ident was preparing to address con
gress on the subject have been pure
guess work Today brought the first
official intimation that the president
in his close study of the situation has
gotten to the point where he was
thinking of such a course.
There is no official indication of the
medium the president will choose or
when he will choose it. but tits gener-
ally believed that as Usual he win di-
rest his statement to the world thru
an address TO q joint session of con-
gTess
differences drawn from statements
by Sir Robert Cecil. British minister
Of blockade, Field Marshal Hinden-
burg and General Ludendorff that
Germany might be proposing a peace
at the expense of Russia, made peace
talk in general no more popular in
Washington than ii has been at any
time since the United States went to
war Officials are declining to make
statements for the very reason that
any sort of statement would give
comfort to a peace movement, gave un-
mistakeable indications of how unwel-
come peace discussions were at this
time
This attitude of American officials
found highly interesting reflection in
French dispatches giving accounts of
t-le interviews recently given by Hin
denhurg and Ludendorff az German
headquarters and publications in Ger
man newsuaDers of the situation on
the eastern battle front.
An official dispatch today from
Berne quotes a Berlin dispatch as de-
claring it was the eastern question
which was the object of Hindenburg's
recent conference with the emperor
and the chancellor The government
is expected to make a statement next
week on the situation The govern
ment it is declared. is occupied with
the result of conferences held between
the leaders of the Polish activities and
delegates from the majority in the
Reichstag.
At these conferences there was
MANNED an economic and political al
lance between Poland and the Central
Powers and even the conclusion of 4
military convention. The new policy
wonld be unrelated to Prussian Poland
and could expand in the east.

the war zone, might indicate that The
Netherlands government was prOpOs-
ing something new in connection with
the negotiations which Great Britain
and the United States would be un-
able TO accept
The official attitude here is that all
arrangements have been made to
take over the ships on Monday and
that the injection of any new propOs-
ais BY Holland cannot stay the deci-
sion reached in London and Washing
ton
II was stated that If Holland desires
to turn over the shipping on terms al
ready laid down. by voluntary agree
ment IL would be considered very
agreeable but that they must be taken
over Monday. at all events. on the
final terms presented to The Hague
by the American and British diploma
tic representatives.
