Military and Naval Forces.

London, Oct. 30.--The terms upon
which Germany can have an armis-
iice and also peace probably will be
made known very soon.
The terms have been agreed upon

council, it was learned here today

The peace conditions will be Pres
ident Wilson'S IA points in a little
different form The wording will be
slightly adjusted SO as to embody
new conditions which have arisen
within the past year.
London believes that Germany in
doubtedly will accept both the ar
mistice and peace terms.
It is known that Germany has ac.
tually been trying to stop the oper-
atoms of her U-boats
The president is expected to re-
ceive the decision of the Versailles
council on the German communities
ton before the end of this week. On
its receipt he will forward it to Ber-
lin and will put. the. issue of wheth-
er the war is TO- end or whether the
fighting will continue until Germany
is completely crushed. squarely up
to the German government.
1t can be stated on authority that,
SC far as the president is concerned,
he will completely endorse all de-
nIands that are made by the mill
tary advisors of the Versailles
council, designed to guarantee that
Germany will keep all pledges made.
The president, it is understood,
made it very plain to the cabinet,
when the situation was under dis
cussion that he believes "Germany's
teeth must be drawn" and she made
submissive to any and all demands
that are made upon her.
Officials today have no informa-
ton regarding whether the arms
tiee conditions will be accompanied
by an outline of the peace terms
that Germany will be forced to ac-
ccpt.

How They Handled Funds.

her and from time to time paid money
to her. She terminated the agency,
she says, in August. 1915, and asked
for an accounting. She asserts that
at that time and since her sons have
failed to submit the statements, and
she further alleges that an account
ing would show considera BILE money

The plaintiff says she cannot read
or write English and cannot under
stand same clearly. In asking for the
accounting she also requests that the
court render judgment for any
amount found to be due her from her
sons. J. j. Schenck and J. B. Lari-
mer are attorneys for the plaintiff.
