Russia Bows
ToGerman Will
In Peace Terms

Russia has bowed TO the Teutonic
allies. The bolshevik commissioners
sent 70 Brest-Litovsk have signed
the treaty Of peace presented by the
Germans, according to an official
statement from Berlin, which adds
that military movements in Great
Russia have ceased.
1t was reported on Saturday by
the bolshevik commissioners that
they were abolt TO sign the treaty.
This report was telegraphed TO Len
inc and Trotzky. after the delegates
sent TO Brest-Litovsk mad met the
German emissaries There is little
information available as to the de-
tails of the meeting between the
peace delegations. but the bOlsheviki
said they realized that any further
delay would mean more Onerous con-
ditions and they would sign the
treaty without further discussions
Russia lost by the delay that en-
sued when Trotzky announced that
the war. so far as Russia was con-
cerned. had ended. but refused to
sign the formal treaty. In the inter
val between the breaking up Of the
first Brcst- Litovsk meeting and the
one held late last week, the central
powers added greatly 10 the demands
which were outlined when the now
famous Hoffman line" was drawn
by the commander of the German
forces on the eastern front.
Turkey is Beneficiary.
Turkey was the beneficiary OF
these changes in the peace terms.
The new demands included that
Russia relinquish the regions OF
Batoum. Kars and Karaband KARA
baghD 10 the Turks. These regions
are in trans-Caucasia and mark a
considerable addition 10 the sultan's
dominions in that section of the
world. The doctrine OF the right Of
peoples to self-determination was
the pretext upon which the new
terms were added TO the treaty II
is probable that the bOlsheviH dele
CATION acceded 70 the new demands.
While il is understood that all the
Teutonic allies have signed the for
NAL treaty ending the war with
Russia. il is said that the economic
and legal phases of resuming peace
ful relations will be taken up indi-
viduauy by each country.
The German socialists have bitter
II attacked the peace treaty with
Russia. In a debate in the reich
stag there were charges that Ger
many and Austria already are quar-
reling over The spOils OF war and
that the real truth Of the situation
i'm the east is being kept from the
German public.
While Berlin says that the German
invasion has ceased. Austrian troops
have occupied three more towns in
Ukraine and have captured three di-
visions Of Russian infantry. as we'll
as the stats OF two Russian army
corps.
Attacks by the Germans in various
sectors along the French front have
featured the official reports from
Paris for the past couple OF days. In
one raid near Rheims the Germans
occupied a small position. but were

telling US we would land In the States
and then they rousted us between
decks again.
We had only been there a short time
when some Of the German ofEicers came
down and asked II any Of the men
would volunteer to 60 firing on the
Yarrowdale and we almost mobbed
them to take us. They began putting
down the names Of the men who were
to 60 and I talked them into putting
mine down too. Then felt about

Five o'clock came and by that time
I had forgotten to do any worrying.
We received our usual ratlons and
most Of US who had volunteered DR..
ured that we would receive clothes
and shoes. In the morning an ohicer
came down below and read sut the
names Of those who were to 20 and !
felt even lighter when he called mine,
We were each given a life belt and
mustered on deck.

Landed In Germany.

They had a coolie crew on the Var.
rowdale and when they routed them
on deck the coolies began to pray, and
though It is nothing to laugh at could
not help but chuckle at the way some
Of them went about talking to their
various gods. They were beginning to
smell danger and were pretty nervous.
Every one Of the coolies had a cane
and pair Of Palm Beach trousers.
The Huns were loading them In the
lifeboats to be taken back to the
Moewe with their sea bags and one Of
them got too nervous and was slow
about getting into the lifeboat, so tho
Germans shot him without saying q
word.
Then the Germans called out the
names Of those who had volunteered to
90 stocking and this included me. We
were drilled down the fiddley into the
fire room. The fiddley is shaft that
runs from the main deck Of . ship to
the engine room. I looked around q
bit and saw a German standing noe
very far from the fiddley, so I asked
him II we would be given, shoes. He
said no. Then I asked him IL we had
TO IRE in our fare feet and he said
yes-that we did not need shoes. Then
he went into the engine room.
I looked at the narrow passage he
went through and at the narrow pas.

I sneaked up to where the rest Of
the fellows were and the guards

nothing but ammunition In 1t. They
battened the matches down on us,
which made the hold waterproof. And

the German boat.
When the lifeboat reached the ia

up the kegs. The Germans were
armed with bayonets and revolvers.

mounted on an elevator and when the
time came they ran the elevator up
until the guns were on level with the
poop deck. but otherwise they were
out Of sight from other ships.
For our first meal they slung a big

tea. After this festival we began

When the tugs had cast or and after
. while we had dropped our pilot, I
aaid to myself: snow we are OF, and

h' did not look very big to me.
Though I could see It with the naked
aye all right.
I got up about four o'clock the next
morning, which was Sunday, Decem-

AZ soon as I was dressed I went
Gown to the forecastle peak and from
there into the paint locker, where /
found some rope. Then back again on
deck. and made myself hammock,
which I rugged up on the boat deck,
figuring that I would have 4 nice sun
bath. as the weather had at last
turned clear. .s..s.s,',s ~, s.l
as soon as I had the hammock
strung ! went down to the baker and
had nice chat with him-and stole a
few hot buns. which was what I was
really after-and away to the galley
for breakfast. I was almost exactly
amidshtps, sitting on an old orange
box. had not been there long when
Old Chips, the ships carpenter, stuck
hts head in the door and sang out,
"Ship on the starboard, bow" I did
not pay any attention to him. because

ship was just opposite US when away

boats on the starboard side, and then,

shaking SO hard they made the pans

When the firing stopped / went up
to the boat deck. I had on all Of my
clothing, but instead Of shoes was
wearing q pair Of wooden clogs. The
eaen and boys were crazy-rushins
around the deck and knocking each
other down. and everybody getting in
everybody else's way. We lowered our
Jacobs ladders, but some Of the men
and boys were already in the water.
Why they Jumped I do not know
Then the German raider Moewe
headed right In toward us and
thought she was going to ram us, but
she backed water about thirty yards
away. She lowered lifeboat and II
made for the Georgia, passing our
men in the water as they came and
crashing them on the head with boat

were just what they wanted from
Sanity. Only we did not have any
Christmas tree to sit around. We must
have looked funny, though. and would
have had a good laugh .if /; had not
been 10 cold.
We could not 60 to sleep because
the decks were wet, nor could we sit
down with any comfort for the same
reason. Besides. we thought we might
buck up against q British or q French
cruiser at any minute and most Of US
thought we would stay up and. get an
eye full before we started for Davy's
well-known locker.
About two bells the following morn
ing the Moewe's engines began to
groan and shake her up q bit and we
could hear the blades jump out Of the
water every once in a while and tear
away. She went ahead in this way for
some time and we were hoping she
was trying to get away from a cruiser
and some Of us were pulling for the
cruiser to win and others hoping the
Moewe would get her heels clear and
keep us from getting ours.
The Huns were running up and down
the deck yelling like wild men and
one Of our men began to yell too. He
was delirious and after he yelled
bit he jumped up and made pass at
the sentry, who shot at him but
missed. The shot missed me too. but
not very much. Then they dragged
the delirious man up on deck and Lord
knows what they did with him. because
we never saw him again. But we did
not hear any sound that they might
have made In shooting him.
Then the Huns began Smelling and
they kept it up for some time.
Then they ordered US up on deck
to see the ship they had been firing at
and when we came up the companion
way they were just bringing the other
ships skipper aboard. It was the
French collier st. Theodore, hove to
of the starboard side with a prize
crew from the Moewe aboard and wig
wagging to the raider.
Then the Huns began shouting and
they rousted us below deck again. The
place where we had been was filed
with smoke. from what or why do
not know. but It was almost impos-
sible to breathe In It. When the
smoke cleared up bit the Marathon
started again, for we were still In our
underwear only. One Of the boys had
asked Fritz for clothing and Fritz said
the English had tough enough skins
and they did not need clothing. Then.
be said: sWait until you see what our
German winters are like" =
The following morning the engines
began to tear away again and the
guns started firing. After while the
firing stopped and the engines too, and
after an hour they had the old man
Of the Yarrowdale aboard. She was a
British ship chartered ~ the French
and bound for Brest and Liverpool
with ! very valuable cargo aboard
airplahes, ammunition, food and auto
mobiles.
Ss When they rousted 10 on deck again
the st. Theodore was still. in sight, 'but
she had the Yarrowdale for company.
Both were trailing behind rs and keep.
