Allies Not Being Fooled by Desperate
Effort of Kaiser to Save His Skin;
German Army Must Gipe Up Arms

Washington, oct. 14.-Germanys
reply to President Wilson reached
the Swiss legation in official form
by cable this morning. 1t was in
German tevt, a translation of which
was identical with that received by
wireless Sunday. Instead of taking
the note directly to the White House
as he did Prince Maximilian's peace
plea, Frederick Oederlin, Swiss
charge, communicated with the
State Department.
In the meantime, President Will
son had called Secretaries Lansing
and Baker to the White House for
a conference. The President and
Mr.. Lansing had been considering
the German communication since
Saturday night when the unofficial
text reached them, and Secretary
Baker, just back from France, was
prepared to give first-hand informa-
ton about the situation at the bat
tlefront, which has brought about the
German eagerness for peace.

UBoRAH, in a special article on

published by the New York Times,
says:
Fifty years ago, about, France

full methods had characterized that
war. I quote a single paragraph
from an article written at the time
by a citizen of a neutral country:
Every city has been practically
sacked. ransacked on system; it's
civilians plundered, it's civil officials
terrorized, imprisoned, outraged or
killed. The civil population has
been, contrary to the usage of mod

plate cessation of hostilities nor
negotiations for peace with the Ger
man government, except upon con-
ditios amounting to unconditional
surrender.
1t is assumed that since Saturday
night at least informal exchanges
have taken place between Washing
ton and the capitals of the co-bellig-
erents. Informed of the views of the
allied Premiers, the President may
determine before the day is over
whether his reply to the German re-
quest that he propose an armistice
and peace negotiations shall be a
refusal to make any such proposal
at the instance of the present Ger
man government, or a renewed
statement of the conditions under
which peace must he restored.
May Tell Congress
1t was suggested that the Presi-
dent might ask for a joint session
of the House and Senate to COM
municate his decision and the rea-
sons for it to Congress, the country
and the world
Secretary Daniels joined the
White House conference. The Presi-
dent and his advisers were together
for nearly two hours, then the cab
met officers and Colonel House
walked over to the State. War and
Navy building, leaving the President
alone in his study where nearly all
of his notes and utterances have
been drafted.

Thirteen deaths and $50 more
cases of influenza have been report
ed until noon to-day to the city
health bureau offices. According to
DIR. ]. NJ. j. Raunick, city health
officer, the disease is spreading rap
idly throughout the city. The toll
of deaths to-day from pneumonia
equals that of Saturday and yesterday
together. Six died on Saturday and
seven yesterday.
Because of the steady increase in
the number of cases physicians of
the city are considering a plan to
establish zones so that all of the
victims can be treated. At present
some of the doctors have more than
sixty calls day listed at their Of
fee, taking them to all parts of the
city. 1t has been suggested that
by establishing zones the visits to
homes of victims of the disease
could be made more quickly, thus
giving treatment to everyone in the
shortest possible time.

BANKS PLAN CASH
FOR DISTRICT IN
BIG LOAN DRIVE
Those Who Desire May Get
Ample Funds to Pur-
chase More Bonds

Every bank in the three counties
OF the Harrisburg Liberty Loan Dis
trict has made arrangements whereby
they lend Liberty Bond purchasers
money for the purchase of bonds at
Al per cent. interest, with the bonds
thus purchased held by the banks as
collateral
II is the most generous plan yet
offered for the purchase of Liberty
Bonds and one calculated to remove
the last obstacle in the way of the
man who desires to purchase bonds
in quantities exceeding the amount
Of cash he has on hand.
The interest on bonds thus pur-
chased pays the interest on the loan
from the bank. In other words, the
bond buyer who patriotically mort
ages his future for the purchase of
bonds is allowed to clip the coupons
from his bond while the banks are
holding them as collateral to pay
the interest on his debt. AS he pays
the debts from his income. the num-
Der of bonds he clips becomes small
,er. and the interest paid to the bank
decreases.
Donald Mccormick, District Lib
erty Loan Chairman, said this morn
ing every bank in the district is
lending money at the rate of AZ per
cent which is the interest paid on
the bonds. The period for which the
money is lent is 90 days, but the loans
can be extended at the same rate of
interest at the end Of the 80 days If
necessary.
This announcement is said to be
the most important one made by the
banks since the loan opened and
opens the way for every wage-earner
in the district TO mortgage a per-
centage Of his future earnings in
order to do his duty in the Fourth
Liberty Loan.
