TEUTONS WIN PEACE
WITH UkRANIANS
Sign Agreement Which it IS Be.
lieved Bolshevik Government
VIII Oppose.
By Associated Press to Every Evening

BY Associated Press to Every Evening
Copenhagen, Denmark, Feb "a
peace agreement has been signed by rep
resentatives of the Central Powers and
of the Ukranian Rada, a sem-ohicial
Berlin telegram announces.
The Bolshevik government probably
will not recognize any peace agreement
signed by representatives of the Ukrain-
ian Rada This is the legislative body set
up by the Ckrainians at the time they
declared their independence of Russia and
has been opposed by the Bolsheviki as
bourgeoise.
Attempts to overthrow the Rada and
establish soldiers and workmen's coun-
Gil as the governing authority in Ukraine
have resulted in fighting during the last
few weeks, concerning the results of which
conflicting reports have been sent out by
the Ukrainians and the Bolshevikl, each
claiming decisive military successes.
When the peace negotiations at Brest-
Ltovsk were begun, the Bolsheviki con-
sented 10 the admission OF Ukrainian dele
gates. but subsequently discovered that
the UiIrainians were carrying on secret
negotiations with the Germans and
Austrians. They thereupon repudiated
the Ukrainians and sent new delegates,
representing the Bolshe,ik regime IN
Usraine, to Brest-Litovsk. The Germans
and Austrians, however, declined to rec
ogni2e the new delegates.
London, Feb. 0-The peace agreement
between the Central Powers and Ukraine
was signed at o'clock this morning,
according to an official Berlin statement,
as forwarded from Copenhagen by the
Exchange Telegraph Co.
