PEACE CELEBRATED
 IN RUSSIAN CAPITAL
Negotiations Apparently at an End Except for Disagreement on German Retirement From Occupied Territory. .....

London, Dec. 31.-German news papers, telegraphs the correspondent at Amsterdam of the Central News Agency, are much occupied with the declarations of the central powers at Brest-Litovsk concerning Lithuania, Courland and Poland. Apparently the German representatives yielded to pan-German influence, this being indi- cated by the comments of the annexa- tionist press, in contrast with those of liberal and democratic newspapers.
 In Petrograd Sunday the day was given over to peace celebrations mark ed by parades of Bolsheviki followers.
 Members of the German and Aus trian peace delegations were specta- tors of the parades. The heads of the German and Austrian delegations to the Brest-Litovsk conference, Dr. von Kuehlman and Count Czernin, are re- turning to their respective capitals. Delayed dispatches from BrestLitovsk indicate that while the representatives of Russia and the central powers agree on most of the peace terms. there is difficulty in the preliminary settlement of the question concerning German retirement from occupied Rus sia territory in order to give the in- habitants opportunity to decide their future for themselves.
 One of the forts at Kronstadt, the naval base near Petrograd, has been blown up by an explosion, according to a dispatch received in London.
 Bessarabia and Turkestan are re- ported to have declared their inde- pendence, while fighting between the Bolshevik and their opponents is re- ported to be going on in Harbin and Irkutsk, Siberia. General Kaledines was reelected hetman of the Don Cos sacks by an overwhelming majority.

A WOMAN HELPS DIRECT
 THE FINANCING OF WAR

"We pledged ourselves to stand by the government, not only spiritually, but materially" said Mrs. George Bass, former president of the Chi cago Woman's Club, and the only woman member of the new War Saw ings Stamp committee, before the National Suffrage Convention in Washington, last week. "We women, through all our little organizations, through our farmers, our clerks, our schools, our school teachers, through those who had never learned to save before, and through those who had never thought it possible to save from their meagre salary, raised over one billion dollars in Liberty Bonds" Mrs. Bass then explained the object of the Thrift committee. "The president has said" Mrs. Bass told the suffragists, "that he looks to the committee to stop the wastefulness of the country.
 "There are some benevolent by-pro- ducts of war. One of them is thrift
 We are growing in thrift when we buy these little savings stamps and put them on our cards. We will feel the sacrifice, we will feel the pinch, not only in a spiritual sacrifice, but by 9 giving up of her material wealth"

BERLIN ADMITS PART
 OF TOMBA POSITIONS
 FELL DURING ATTACK
Official Bulletin from Rome De- clares Position Taken Along With 1,40O Men, 60 Machine Guns and Seven Cannon.

New York, Dec. 31.-The Austro- front felt the shock Sunday of French infantry blow and were shak- en, if not broken, by the impact. The French stroke was delivered on the |easterly end of the mountain line near tits junction with the Piave, the as- sault being directed at Monte Tomoa. The attacking columns broke into the enemy defenses on the mountain at some points and apparently made good their hold, the Berlin officials admit a penetration of portions of the Tomba positions.
 The official bulletin from Rome de- clares that the French captured enemy positions between Osteria di Monfe- rena and Maranzine, with about 400 men, 50 machine guns and seven cannon.
 The Austrian official statement makes the French victory appear even more significant than does that of Berlin, as it announces the prepara- tion of counter measures" against the French. This expression has prev iously been used in statements from the Teutonic side in initial announce ments on occasions when striking suc- cesses have been scored by enemy forces.
 Both French and British troops have for some time been aiding the Italians in holding their present front.
 Field Marshal Haig has very nearly made good his loss of ground in Sun day's local attack by the Germans on the southern end of the Cambrai sal ient which resulted in the British front line being entered on both wings of the two-mile front engaged. Prompt counter-attacks deprived the Germans of portion of their gain.

SUCCESSFUL WINTER TRIP
 TO THE SEAL ISLANDS

The government steamship Roose- welt is on her way to Seattle with a full cargo of sealskins, seal meat, and other products from the Seal Islands, having successfully carried out the novel and dangerous task of carrying coal and other supplies to the islands in the middle of the winter.
 Commissioner H. H. Smith of the Bureau of Fisheries, Department of Commerce, reports that as a result of the trip the natives are we'll fortified against the severe weather that has already set in and will be much more comfortable and contented in conse- quence. Great difficulty was exper- fenced in unloading supplies and talk ing on the island products, as the Der ing Sea was constantly swept by tempestuous winds.
 The return cargo consists of 4,25S sealskins, and various casks of corned seal meat and other products, as well as $500 sacks of bones which will weigh between 350,OOO and 100000 pounds.

AMERICA PREPARES
 IA SEND ASSISTANCE
 TO GUATEMALA CITY
Still No Details of Disaster in Which Many Lives Are Lost and 100000 Persons Made Homeless.

New York, Dec 31.-While the ma terial damage was very heavy, there was but little loss if life in the earth quake at Guatemala City few days ago, according to the first advices re- ceived from Guatemala government officials by Ramon Bengoechea, the Guatemalan consul here, late today.
 Washington, Dec. 31.-Still without detailed information of the earth quakes which destroyed Guatemala City, costing many lives and leaving 100000 homeless, American officials today prepared to send aid to the stricken sister republic. Red Cross officials conferred with navy officials as to the supplies to be sent forward on American warships ordered to a Guatemalan seaboard While the American diplomats are safe, archives of the legation and consulate are be- lieved to have been lost, as the build ings are reported to have been shaken to the ground. Unofficial advices in- dicate that the foreign colony escaped without loss of life.
 Four earthquakes apparently have shaken Guatemala City. Records on the Georgetown University sismologi- cal observatory instruments here show the first shocks were felt on Christmas night shortly after mid night. A second series of shock came about 9 a. m. on December 26. Fur ther shocks were recorded on Friday, December 28, at 4:23 p. m., but the heaviest shocks came at 5:57 p. m., Saturday, December 29. It appears that this last disturbance was the one which caused the most damage.
 The machinery of the American Red Cross has been set in motion to re- lieve the earthquake sufferers. In re- sponse to an appeal for assistance from Alfred Clark, chairman of the Red Cross chapter at Guatemala City, a preliminary appropriation of $10,000 has been authorized for the purchase of relief supplies. Materials for tenn porary shelters are being assembled but the mildness of climate in the devastated region minimize fears of suffering likely to be caused by eX- posture.

two important witnesses would not
be located in time for the trial. At

point that the uncoTroborated testl'
mony Of an accomplice could not be
used to convict. At some lenStn ne
tried to impress upon The cour. that
the testimony OF Arthur Gooow1o ano
James Campbell. which was the most
damaging. was cold with sucn cailous-
ness as well as other crimes that they
nerne+rated that it should have been
weighed accordingly.
Prosecuting Attorney ". r. HaG-
