SENATOR NEwLANDs DEAD.
Nevada Statesman Stricken While at
Work at Capital.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Francis Crit
fifth Newlands of Nevada died of heart
failure at his home here December "a,
after an illness of a few hours. He
was stricken while at work in his Of
fee at the Senate Office building dur
ing the afternoon, but was able to go
home and the capital knew nothing Of
his illness until the announcement of
his death.
The senator was a native of Missis-
sippi. He was born near Matches Aug
ust %, 184S, and lived In the state I'M
til he went to Yale in 1867. After
nearly two years he entered the Co.
lumbar college law school here and
graduated.
From Washington he went to San
Francisco, where he practjced law I'M
til 1888. He then became a citizen Of
Nevada and was elected to the Fifty
third, Fifty-fourth, Fifty-fifth, Fifty
sixth and Fifty-seventh congresses.
During his ten years as member of
the house he served on various impor-
tant committees.
Succeeding Senator John P. Jones,
Republican, in the senate on March 4.
1903, Senator Newlands soon became
an active member of that body and
when the Democrats gained control
was made head of the interstate COM
merce committee. In 1908 he was re-
turned, and again in 1914.

Neutrality-suspicious. Czernin, Aus
trian premier, has spoken the first au-
thor,tative Teuton peace terms at
Brest-LitOvsk. His remuneration of an
nexations marks the first evidence of
Teuton weakening the first official
reputation of the grandiose declara-
lions Of the pan-Germans and imperi-
alists.
But his terms with regard to indem-
mites, subject nations and the German
colonies, make his offer such that the
allies cannot consider it. 1t does not
meet the prime requisite of President
Wilson, Lloyd George and Clemenceau,
that the German military autocracy
must be so punished before this war
is over that it will never again dare to
plunge the world into woe through the
violation of treaties and pledged word.
This is the view of official and diplO-
matte Washington today on the speech
of the Austrian premier to the Russian
peace ENJOYS.
