WILL ILL FIGHT FOR
 ACCEPTANCE OF
 WILSON TERMS
Enemy Proposals Not Favored By Supreme War Council Fight to Be Waged Until Peace Based on Justice.

London, Feb. 3.-The Supreme War Council, which met at Versailles, finds no approximation in the German chan cellor's and the Austri- Hungarian foreign minister's speeches to the terms of the tntente allies and has dcieded to continue the vigorous pros ecution of the war until peace can be expected "based on theprinciples of freedom, justice and respect for in- ternational law"
 This official announcement was made here tonight
 A summary of the official report of the Versailles war council says:
 "The council was unable to find in Von Hertling's and Czernin's recent utterances any real approximation to the moderate conditions laid down by the allied governments. Under the circumstances the council decided that the only task before them to meet was the vigorous and effective prose- cution of the war until the pressure of that effort produced change of temper in the enemy governments, justifying the hope of the conclusion of a peace based don the principles of freedom, justice and respect for inter- national law.
 "The council arrived at a complete unanimity of policy on measures for the prosecution of the war"

St. Louis, Feb. 3.-Street railway traffic in St. Louis was almost at 9 standstill today, as a result of the strike of motormen and conductors who suddenly went out after II o'clock Saturday night.

 Three men were shot in strike riots this evening, according to reports re- ceived at police headquarters. Albert Hoeldge, striker, said he was shot from car window. Another striker was shot at the car barns in the west ern part of the city.
 Police this evening raided the headquarters of the I. W. W. and ar rested 30 men. The secretary of the organization denied that the I. w. w.. had had any part in fomenting the strike.
 Officials of the newly-organized local of the Amalgamated Association of Street and Electric Employees said this afternoon that practically all the motormen and conductors of the United Railways had joined the union and had gone out in obedience to the strike order. At the offices of the United Railways it was estimated that about third of the car employees had joined the union.
